The letter calls for caution in automatic "gender affirmation" for the increasing number of girls presenting to gender clinics. /2pic.twitter.com/FgY6lbVsiC
The letter also points out that many girls presenting to gender clinics are same-sex attracted. Why does Therapy Today believe concerned citizens should not question whether we are protecting young lesbians from unnecessary medical intervention?
Another important point mentioned in the LETTER--remember it is a LETTER to the editor--is the possible influence of social contagion in leading some young people to believe they are trans. Clinicians are already talking about this. /4 https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/when-kids-come-in-saying-they-are-transgender-or-no-gender-these-doctors-try-to-help/2018/01/19/f635e5fa-dac0-11e7-a841-2066faf731ef_story.html?utm_term=.4b0ca97a7437 …pic.twitter.com/DnlNKhqrri
Can @BACP explain why it wants to censor a LETTER from a concerned citizen, who bring up points that even seasoned clinicians, around the world, are discussing? /5pic.twitter.com/ebY4kQG5lI
Here, again, is the letter. @BACP & @Reeves_Therapy are you aware Ms. Davies-Arai is far from alone in her concerns? Can you explain why you have bowed to demands from activists, while ignoring the many parents and clinicians who are also discussing the very issues she raises?pic.twitter.com/tVbMwX91AH

Here it is @HairyLeggdHarpy
Thank you Cinders!
I have never seen censorship like this. Who pressured @BACP to retract a letter **they didn’t even write?** Is BACP advocating removal of free speech and academic debate? How will treatments evolve if deviation from orthodoxy is not permitted?
"serious error of judgement" - i.e don't dare of offend the men and their concubines. Shame on you BACP
