I guess the something about authority that is constructed for the purpose e.g. Cass or co-opted to the purpose like the Supreme Court.

Same. The lack of trust in trans kids to self-report their own pubertal development as part of wider mistrust in their understanding of their own identity is structural and only going to get worse.

No. Had oestrogen prescribed by GP on first appointment for the issue with no physical examination or visit to a psychiatrist to check my menopause is real. The way trans people are treated in healthcare is inhumane.

I don’t understand how this study has ethical approval. This study shows no understanding that once puberty is well advanced blockers have limited effects. The possibility of biased findings is high.
I would really like to see the justification. I wonder if it’s possible to FOI that.

What a bizzare measure. Apparently having unsupportive parents will be puberty blockers fault. Good grief.
