    Enough people agitated for it; so finally @stevennovella and I provided it: A more detailed discussion of why @ScienceBasedMed retracted the review of Abigail Shrier's book "Irreversible Damage."https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-science-of-transgender-treatment/ …

        Thank you. On behalf of my trans friends, I appreciate the thorough work you've done here. I hope (but don't expect) that Dr. Hall will do some serious thinking about why she was so willing to accept bad science in this one circumstance.

        We have more to come, at least one, possibly as many as three, guest posts by actual experts in trans medicine.

        This is one of the best reads I've had in a good while. This is to Shrier’s Irreversible Damage as The Mismeasure of Man was to the Bell Curve.pic.twitter.com/p14CbU07KD

        Will you make sure to point out the parts where they assign conclusions to studies that even the authors of said studies wouldn’t?

        Pleasantly surprised to see this. When Hall's uncritical coverage of "ROGD" appeared I wrote SBM off entirely; it disturbed me to see such a reputable site endorsing ideologically driven pseudoscience. I figured you were past the point of no return.

        like seriously, it's bothered me for years, but I genuinely did not expect you to revise your stance. Thank you. There's several ppl who've been rigorously covering anti-trans pseudoscience for a while—@JuliaSerano being the foremost.
