equality & making the world a better place
Inclusive cis feminist
Right. I like how they put 4000% rise... like it means anything. It went from 2 to 20... THAT'S A 1000% increase!
That 4400% = 1,760 over 9 years. That’s less than 196 trans boys a year - not all of them are attracted to females.
I’d hardly call that a flight of ‘baby dykes’!?! 
These transphobic pop-up lobby groups really need to dial back on the anti-trans spin!

This is going to bug me... because this number could've increased for a variety of reasons. Safety of puberty blocks, education and quality of trans healthcare. The language has changed in the last 20 years.

Amazing that people are falling for this drivel. - oh no, they might be on *medication*! How terrible! - "girls as young as 18" - 18 is an adult, and the bulk of referrals are age 16+; - the GIDS provides e.g. egg freezing to young people starting hormones.
-
As for the rest, I'd rather give a young adult a chance to state their own mind than think that some rando on Twitter knows better than they do.

One more reason why everyone needs to check that their friends have signed
@DavidPaisley’s petition. The LGBA do not represent a majority of opinion. They are a tedious tiny minority.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Really easy to quote really high % change when your starting point is a very low number

Referrals sounds like kids joining onto the waiting list, maybe? Rather than kids who get anywhere near GIDS.

Randall Munroe did an xkcd strip about the misuse of percentage of growth all the way back in 2012. It's one of those that's more relevant now than when it was first posted.pic.twitter.com/akJV9rxfyP
