Most kids in the study came from pro-LGBT families. 47% academically gifted. 41% declared a prior non-heterosexual orientation. None met diagnostic criteria for gender dysphoria in childhood, but most developed it later. Many with pre-existing co-morbidities & vulnerabilities.

Majority of
#ROGD kids have difficulty coping with negative emotions. Adolescence is already challenging. Layering on social pressure (just look at the Friend-group Exposure section) can be intense, especially for those already experiencing social anxiety, bullying, trauma, etc.Show this thread -
Wow! "Despite...having an atypical presentation of gender dysphoria (no gender dysphoria prior to puberty), 23.8% of the parents who knew the content of their child’s visit reported that the child was offered Rxs for puberty blockers and/or cross-sex hormones at the 1st visit."

Many reports of quick diagnosing and access to medical interventions. Ignoring history. Very reckless and unethical. A lot of concerns to address.

Disgraceful to leave the children and parents dealing with Early Onset Gender Dysphoria and Adult Onset Gender Dysphoria on their own. All Gender Dysphoria causes anguish and is a social contagion and accepting it is violation of human rights.

The author literally misrepresented my work, called it "nonspecific symptoms" after cutting out specific symptoms, and then attributed it to a random Tumblr. Sloppy and dishonest.https://twitter.com/ZJemptv/status/1030180985894252544 …

I remember reading your blog post a while back. I'm with Dr. Littman, your "signs" sounded vague & a lot like depression to me. (I hope you feel better now, though.) And I can see how reading it could mislead people into believing they were trans.
