The dad who wrote the letter is not "fringe"; he asks responsible clinicians to address the social contagion affecting girls/young women that parents & others are observing, but activists deny. That's what's irresponsible, not a letter-writing campaign. https://twitter.com/4th_WaveNow/status/984061242758389760 …https://twitter.com/TransgenderSoul/status/984069975018229761 …

Parents are observing their teen daughters abruptly claiming to be trans, after happy childhoods with no prior signs or symptoms of being unhappy with their sex. Yet we have clinicians quite happily handing out T prescriptions after a visit or two. That isn't "fringe" to you?pic.twitter.com/rhzeXnWwxs

In fact
@TransgenderSoul , you've been a voice of reason about this. Tell us, what would YOU do, as a parent, if your knowledge about yr own daughter was dismissed as "hate" or "transphobia" by a clinician? Some of our "AFAB" daughters are desisters, like ones you described here.pic.twitter.com/Rza7IyZmNc

Replying to @4th_WaveNow @TransgenderSoul
My daughter desisted after 1 year. There are many others like her.
#RapidOnsetGenderDysphoria is a real phenomenon. Many 4thWaveNow parents aren't anti-transgender, but are deeply concerned that interventions like cross-sex hormones and surgeries are provided too readily.1 reply 0 retweets 6 likes
Again, Dr. St. Claire acknowledged the trend in her FB post. It's mystifying that, of all clinicians, this one would join the trans-activist freakout over a **letter-writing campaign** to raise awareness about what's happening with our daughters.
