    Current legislative attempts to ban the provision of gender-affirming medical protocols are not only contrary to modern medicine and science but could harm transgender individuals, says HMS’ @jack_turban (via @nytimes)https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/06/opinion/transgender-children-medical-bills.html …

        Claiming that gender-affirming protocols like social transition at 8, puberty blockers at 11 hormones at 14 and surgeries at 15 are backed by modern medicine and science is untrue. All studies show Over 80% of children desist in puberty if they avoid these interventions.

        Every data ever on this says that the vast majority of children get over it in a few years. So what you are proposing, @harvardmed, is harmful to the extreme with lasting and irreversible consequences. You know it is evil and harmful, but you care about money.

        And Turban, in his wording, minimizes the double mastectomy of a girl’s anatomy by writing it as “the removal of breast tissue”. You’re wrong, Harvard. You’re so wrong. Complete lack of ethics.

        It's funny how you have to be 21 to drink, but you can legally change a child's gender starting at 8 yrs old. Crazy world we love in. This is child abuse.
