I won’t say what I want to say but this is unethical.

You don’t put 7.3% of cancer patients on a treatment and leave the rest to see how they get on.

Trans healthcare is the only branch where this is allowed to happen.

Puberty blockers were the compromise and they’ve taken that away.
The trail will involve 220 children.

Meanwhile 3000 another children seeking health care for their gender dysphoria will be placed on an ‘observational’ study.

The old ‘watch and wait’ is how Alice was treated. Although this time there might be someone actually watching, this is not health care.🧵
Puberty Blocker clinical trials to begin
on the NHS

- The trial will involve around 220 children under 16
- Young people will “undergo intensive medical and psychological screening”, including Gillick competency evaluation
- Trial: Group 1 will get PBs straight away vs Group 2, 12 months later

a lot of, most of, the current anti-LGBT and particularly transphobia is just off label antisemitism, the idea of a vast conspiracy, corrupting your children and society more generally to destroy the traditional way of life is classic antisemitism just being retooled to target trans people.

it's because there is a presumption that a child has a moral responsibility to be what their parent imagines them to be. parents don't imagine their children taking medication, thus a child who needs medication is actually breaching this contract with their parent to be Normal and deserves suffering
and ofc i can't help but notice the similarities with anti-trans fearmongering. "people who use MEDICAL CARE early in life tend to go on to use more MEDICAL CARE. isn't this *scary*?!" like the assumption is that medicine is bad and suspect and dangerous. which is a weird assumption!

This was always where this was going. Meeting bigots halfway and giving in to what sounds like reasonable demands ("Kamala Harris wants to let people be trans in prison!") has a human cost when it's applied. People who hate trans people aren't asking for anything that is good for them.
EXCLUSIVE: A forced detransition policy had disastrous effects in one Georgia prison, according to the manager of the medical unit there.

The policy is on hold due to a court order requiring prisons to re-start hormone treatments for incarcerated people in GA.

I've been saying for a while; argue long enough with a right winger and it becomes clear they aren't ignorant. They know more about us than the vast majority of liberals. They put on that front but then will respond to specific arguments with the correct counter. They are malicious.

More needs to be done to call out "social conservatism" as the misogyny and bigotry towards LGBT people it is. It shouldn't be seen an acceptable position to hold in society.

This is part of the problem - zero pushback. Because as soon as someone says something that stupid, there should be a microphone in their face going "Explain, in detail, how you think that works. Because what you said is biologically impossible and completely untrue."

TERFs, given the opportunity, would literally exterminate trans people.

They are now and have always been Nazis. The original nazis killed trans people first as well, and also promoted “traditional gender roles”.

TERFs being giddy about suffering is no shock.

It was always inevitable that the loudest and best-funded (by people in Epstein's emails) anti-trans freaks who spent years trying to brand trans people as sexual predators, would instantly start defending Epstein.

It's not hypocrisy, it's them reinforcing their hierarchy.

The Tories admitted to parachuting people into institutional positions of power in order to work as insider ‘agents’ pushing political/ ideological agenda.

They did it to attack trans people.

What makes you think they weren’t also pushing other agendas???

Each new law against trans people in society will just become the platform for the next law restricting someone else. Possibly you. Dont fall for it.

What bothers me is that impartiality and balance are two different and incompatible things. Impartiality means that you don't intervene to put your thumb on the scales. Balance necessarily requires that you intervene to artificially make every issue look like a 50/50.

I think a number of press outlets badly want there to be a groundswell of anti-trans feeling, because the ownership/senior editorial of those papers have absolutely cooked their own brains on transphobia. It seems to be largely an elite psychosis!
the harris campaign said the “they/them” ad didn’t sway the election.

one of the trump campaign’s top strategists this week said trans rights isn’t in the top five issues for swing voters.

when will the press stop talking about us like we’re a liability and start looking itself in the mirror

The RW obsession with "compelled speech" is as baffling as it is disingenuous. Our speech is compelled each and every day by myriad^2 factors. They're just SO mad they (and no one else) can't call everyone they don't like a fucking slur at all hours of the day until they go blue in the face.
