Update on the puberty blockers trial

[Hoardasurass]

They're going ahead with the puberty blockers trial and it will be open to girls as young as 11 and boys from 12. So it looks like we're going to have to fight again to stop this eugenics campaign of sterilising predominantly gay and autistic children

Sounds to me like Dr Cass has a trans friend or family member or something, and that blinds her to the fact that the existence of "true trans" people doesn't excuse experimenting on children. Sad 🙁

It still might be stopped.

It’s an extremely frustrating position for her to take, because even if “true trans” people existed (currently there is no evidence for this), there is no objective, or reliable way to identify them.

Cass accuses the NHS gender clinics of groupthink but then, somehow, accepts that the exact same treatment regime employed by those clinics might help us effectively treat a disorder the clinics themselves never successfully treated 🤯

O.k! Thanks!

Though I know that some nascently same sex attracted girls do - in the same way that some nascently gay boys tend to prefer to hang out with the girls.

There are also people who have sued because they are unhappy with the fact that they cannot stick back on breasts that have been amputated after realising that they were mislead into attempting to change their sex.

Amongst that happy cohort you mention there are almost certainly people who would have gone through puberty and changed their minds if they had not been given cross sex hormones and the enormous psychological support and huge encouragement and welcome given by the trans community. Especially if they had been able to access help to explore the reasons behind their gender dysphoria.

Medically it's completely unethical to treat any person with treatments that produce permanent effects until such time as they have reached a level of physical and mental maturity to be sure they wouldn't be one of the many people who change their minds after puberty.

To halt puberty, which is the very thing that causes the change of mindset, especially in children who are unable to legally consent, is so unethical that it's beyond belief outside the trans activist arena.

there are people living in our society who have transitioned and are happier and healthier for it

And, obviously, there are those who are not.

Many detransitioners talk about their feelings of betrayal, that adults enabled them and did not protect them from these decisions that with hindsight they believe they should not have been allowed to make, or from the permanent damage they now have to live with.

The basic question is:

Is it more moral, ethical, responsible and right to do something that will permanently change a child's body and cause potentially serious life long medical issues and harm, knowing that some of those children will come to regret it and struggle to live with the permanent, inescapable after effects and loss of adult potential?

Or is it more moral, ethical, responsible and right to say no, medication and surgery cannot ever be accessed by children, and is territory only for adults who are able to make such permanent decisions, knowing that some of those children will be frustrated by the wait?

I actually do agree with you that some people are happier transitioning and I think that option should be available for people well into adulthood with reasonably stable mental health.

However I think kids and teens (and probably very young adults) are too young to make the decision to start any kind of medical transition pathway.
