Here’s an idea - in order to radically reduce waiting lists at the Tavistock, perhaps we could begin by not schooling (through literature) our gender non conforming children to think there is anything wrong with them as they are? Radical suggestion, I know.
The tip of the iceberg, unfortunately. It's not just trans activists/literature that are contributing to the huge increase in dysphoric youth - it's celebrities and social media glamorizing transition at the expense of gender non-conformity.

I guess I’m just looking from the perspective of a children’s author & watching what messages kids are fed through books.

And by this I mean 3-11 year old kids.

I've been having nightmares since I started watching YouTube videos by a young US transman. Part of my trying to understand better. Going through 4 years from quietly questioning and reasoning, admitting MH probs and cutting PRE GD. All the way to mastectomy at 17.
