      I'm not going to write another article, but for the record I also think it's dicey to write about young trans kids with too much certainty.https://twitter.com/welovetheswitch/status/863831465511014400 …

      I don't think we know how stable early parentally-affirmed trans identities are. It's too new as a phenomenon to know.

      Steensma is one of the group at the Dutch clinic who pioneered puberty blockers. He does not think social transition of kids is a good idea

      I think there are a lot of factors that still need to be weighed, & the opinions and interests of late transitioning adults...

      ...may not be as relevant or as important to what's best for kids as those adults understandably feel and intend them to be.

      However (big caveat), any perspective that starts from a belief that having a cisgender identity is inherently better/more desireable...

      ...that's a set of starting assumptions based in prejudice. Presumably there are answers, and we should look for them without fear or bias.

      Are there other treatments for gender dysphoria that work for some people? Can we decrease the number of teens who need hormones & surgery?

      I think we're close to agreeing on most of this. There is an underlying potential for tradeoffs that make me as a trans person nervous.

      Hypothetically, if some approaches work for most kids but harm trans ones, how much harm is acceptable?

          How much of a benefit to cis kids is necessary before harm to trans ones starts seeming acceptable?

          But that's all down the line/in the weeds.

          What if they end up with severe, debilitating bone problems? What if they wish they could have had different surgeries?
