puberty blockers for trans youth exist only because doctors and parents want to give conversion therapy a chance
body autonomy in puberty along their peers is a right!
body autonomy in puberty along their peers is a right!
And let's not even get started on the absurdity of looking for a positive impact from a preventative measure, where the expected outcome is "not getting worse"
Puberty blockers had no measurable impact on divorce rates, therefore ineffective treatment.

(Also the trial measures blockers’ impact on “gender dysphoria,” which some of us have been saying for years is an inherently pathologising diagnosis easily manipulated to curtail bodily autonomy, but ☕️🐸)

if youre trans and youre struggling to justify why you as a person should be allowed to take up space in the universe just consider that by your sheer existence you make a lot of the worst people on earth mad enough that they will die early deaths from stress. so thats a p good reason

UPDATE: In this case—where a TRO Friday hearing had been moved to Thursday—it appears the filing of the lawsuit helped things forward.
The trans woman illegally deported is now back in the U.S., but remains in ICE custody currently. Expedited briefing on her release is set for the coming weeks.

if i had a nickel for every asexual, lesbian, PhD-seeking, psychiatry graduate student i was involved with, i would have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

US conservatives under Obama would sometimes wistfully post training footage of Russian special forces, like "look at what the real manly countries are doing instead of our woke baby military" and then all those VDV guys got annihilated within the first 3 days of the Ukraine invasion
And the cult of SOF is a real problem given that, if we've seen one thing in Ukraine, it is that in a near-peer conflict, highly-trained, ultra-elite infantry cost a lot to form and field but get shredded by firepower at exactly the same rate, if not faster than, regular infantry.
And this all starts right out of the academies or ROTC, are the top of the class going into arty or armor or logistics, no they’re all going to the 173rd airborne or ranger school, so you can see how the army has become so light infantry/SOF centric

There’s absolutely no reason* why GPs can’t prescribe HRT for trans patients. Gender clinics are part of the pathologised gatekeeping model that’s so damaging.

We've all seen this graph, which does a pretty good job at visualizing the comparison of gender status and the perpetrators of mass shootings, however, there isn't a lot of graph comprehension. So, let's talk about the proportionality and weight of this.
