The Journal: "Transgender people turning to DIY-healthcare due to lack of trust in National Gender Service"

The testimonies within are shocking. This reinforces the complete lack of trust in a system which only exists & functions to abuse trans folks.

Aside from the gross last part of this BBC News sentence, wasn’t she 17 at the time?

I live in (what I think I'm correct in saying is) the most diverse constituency in the whole country - Dublin Central, D1 - *and* I'm old enough to remember what this place was like before significant immigration, and the idea that immigration hasn't been good for this country is fucking laughable

And AusPATH: “Claims that the UK is leading a global shift are incorrect. The UK remains the only country with an indefinite ban.”
AusPATH Statement in response to New Zealand Government's decision to restrict access to puberty blockers AusPATH stands with PATHA, our colleagues in Aotearoa New Zealand, and the trans young people, families, and professionals affected by the recent New Zealand Government's decision to restrict access to puberty blockers. As Australia's peak body for gender affirming healthcare professionals, we are deeply concerned that this decision disregards clinical expertise, research evidence, and the lived experience of the communities most affected. When governments depart from evidence-based practice and sideline the advice of healthcare professionals, the consequences are predictable: poorer health outcomes, reduced help-seeking, and a loss of trust in health systems. Decisions of this kind place unnecessary strain on families who are left carrying the full burden of supporting a distressed young person without access to appropriate, timely care. Puberty blockers are a well-established medical intervention used internationally for a range of paediatric conditions. In Australia, they are commonly prescribed (and PBS-subsidised) for many indications. Removing access to puberty blockers does not stop trans young people seeking the care they require. Instead, it forces families into more difficult decisions, often requiring them to move directly to other gender affirming hormones without the time-buying, stabilising role puberty blockers provide. Families who delay or find themselves unable to access care are frequently left to manage escalating distress, often over the high-risk developmental period around puberty. This carries well-documented risks of anxiety, depression and suicidality, and increases the chance of inter-family conflict and family breakdown. International experience demonstrates that restrictive approaches increase pressure on emergency departments, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Units, and crisis services. They also drive families toward online prescribing routes, importing common pharmaceuticals that would otherwise be safely managed within a well-regulated health system. These patterns are already visible in the United Kingdom following its own ban. The UK Government has gone so far as to require clinicians within the NHS to report parents who support their children's affirmed gender, and in some cases, has applied laws that permit the arrest of parents if gender affirming medicines are found at home. This is not an approach any country should emulate. Claims that the UK is leading a global shift are incorrect. The UK remains the only country with an indefinite ban. While some US states have imposed prohibitions, countries often cited as comparators (e.g., Finland, Sweden, and Norway) have not banned puberty blockers. Instead, they have reaffirmed multidisciplinary team-based care models consistent with those used in Australia. Within Australia, Queensland is the only jurisdiction that has restricted publicly available gender affirming hormones. AusPATH also cautions that reducing access to medically indicated care increases the risk of preventable harm. Over the past five years, government bodies in both New South Wales and Queensland have conducted formal enquiries into state-based gender services. In each case, the reviews led to expansion of services, greater resourcing, and recognition of the risks created when gender affirming care is delayed or inaccessible. The recent events in Queensland and the path New Zealand is now undertaking by restricting access to puberty blockers creates avoidable and unacceptable risks for young people. It also risks replicating the failures witnessed elsewhere when governments override evidence-based clinical care. AusPATH urges the New Zealand Government to reconsider this decision. We encourage all governments to follow the evidence, listen to healthcare professionals who specialise in this area, and centre the voices of trans people, their families, and those with lived experience.

That every comment in this article is supportive of trans kids right to access puberty blockers tells you everything you need to know. In the medical community, this isn’t even a debate. No one thinks a ban is right.

here's an idea

every time you see a bigoted rage bait piece in the guardian or wherever else (you shouldn't, don't read the guardian. they are bigoted shitheads.) how about instead of sharing that piece you share some cool work by trans people.

music, art, writing, poetry or anything! just trans.

i think the most sick thing about govt going all in on Esther's phone shit after her daughter was murdered in a crime which had not nothing to do with phones

... is that I spoke to Brianna's friends. On Tiktok. They were everything to her - you want to take that away from other kids like Brianna?

Do you not think it's bizarre to have strangers on the internet decide they know better than Brianna's own loved ones on what is or isn't insulting to her memory?

I've got no time for Rosie Duffield, but she turned up at a drop-in event in Parliament and that's been the limit of her involvement.

I really don't think people have a concept of what less than 1% of the population looks like. If you don't live in a major conurbation it can look like not seeing another trans person for days, weeks or even months. Online friendships are quite literally a lifeline, particularly for trans kids
gemma.transwrites.world trasgernder @gemma.transwrites.world · 21d
ps. it is arguable that Brianna would not likely have turned to social media for friendships and transitional support had those things been readily available in her local area.

@charlotte2153.bsky.social you want kids like Brianna off her phone? then give them a better alternative.

What’s going on here is: the Israeli government and military always planned to move to A Permanent Solution at some future point; they’re already done out of the park on genocide and war crimes charges, and the only restraint on them is America’s ancient, mentally deranged King.
The Associated Press • @AP • 4h BREAKING: The Israeli military says the ceasefire in Gaza is back in effect after it carried out heavy airstrikes across the Palestinian territory. The death toll from the overnight strikes climbed to 81, according to hospital officials.
