Steensma talked a lot about cultural differences, and said an approach that worked in San Francisco might not work as well elsewhere. At one point he seemed to me to be hinting that, for some children, seeming to desist might be better than facing abuse at home or school.
That last thing (which to reiterate was a feeling I got, not his actual words) is coming back to me now, as a parent of foster youth. Some children ARE better off desisting than facing abuse or entering the system... but to me that just adds urgency to social change.
Culture isn't static. It can change so fewer kids are in situations where their best bet is to hide who they are until they can escape. That's why researchers need to unite & tell the truth about what research shows which is: Trans youth do better when they are affirmed.
