I'm "terrified" that people are going to tell obvious and absurd lies with statistics because it's already happened with her last study and you're already doing it before this study comes out "This study has responses from 200 detransitioners, which *proves*" etc etchttps://twitter.com/dogcalledbambi/status/1224721866432098310 …

Again, opinion laundering Littman's first study did nothing AT ALL but demonstrate that the website 4thwavenow exists and tell you what people on that website think You could've found that out by just going to their website

But by turning it into a "scientific study" she was able to imply she'd "proven" a bunch of things she absolutely did not - that "ROGD parents" are a significant portion of a representative sample of some total population, that their claims have been empirically validated, etc

This study does nothing differently than just starting a Twitter thread saying "Tell your detransition story" It's literally the exact same thing, just dressed up

I would actually argue that this does less than that. At least with "Tell your detransition story" there is a chance to catch those who have detransitioned and are opposed to the TERF narrative that surrounds their experience and will openly say so.

Yeah the survey is significantly worse than just saying "Tell your story", it's setting up a Mad Lib of an existing narrative and encouraging you to just fill in the blanks "How abused were you as a child" "Which trans communities groomed you" "How shamed were you for being gay"

I'm paraphrasing but that's what the questions are

It's literally a huge section of the survey that asks you which websites and social media apps you used as a teenager and how much each one contributed to your understanding of trans identity
