your 97% seems to refer to trans people. If that's the case it is not an impressive stat. I'm talking about non-trans people that want to be someone else for other reasons. I'm fat & ugly....I'll be a boy. My uncle raped me....I'll be a boy. I am a boy attracted to boys, that is wrong so I must be a girl.
It refers to people who actually did transition. Maybe 3% did make the decision for the wrong reasons, or changed their minds later, or even got bad advice, but I can't justify telling the 97% "no" because of the 3% who ultimately decided to detransition. A 97% success rate is an impressive stat, IMO.
But isn't the point here to trust the doctors and mental health professionals to do their jobs? They're not handing these kids puberty blockers and hormones as soon as they walk in the door.
they cannot do their jobs. Doctors maybe. But, face time with a qualified psychiatric professional is far too limited. &, btw, I am not talking about people who transition (doctor) or even take puberty blockers (doctor + maybe a psychiatrist). I am talking about a % of the pop that is far larger than the est I've seen of trans people. They either get no real psychiatric care or very limited care, but are spending their formative years thinking they must be a diff sex/gender b/c of other issues that are not being addressed. I think it is an out for a lot of unhappy teens. Wanting to be someone else is attractive when one is suicidal or super depressed. I suspect we are talking about 2 diff things.
I think this kinda gets at my pt. Report Reveals Sharp Rise in Transgender Young People in the U.S. (Published 2022)
well, we know it can't have anything to do with guns. Odd, that YOU'd have a problem with identity confusion, Mr. Southern Values/liar! Yes, I shall never forget.
It's a big lie from big pharma. Spineless parents, medical professionals and politicians have stood down and legitimized grooming.
Southern values has nothing to do with that fact that you live among strange people in libbie land. I doubt you’re able to see straight.
This has to be pre-maturechompulation. How old are these operations? talk to me in 10 years. Further, reversing is the absolute floor as an indicator for "wrong reasons". That 3% even now, may severely underrepresented those who made a mistake.
It sure as hell is not some sheepy nonsense like grooming. Good god. We do not have anywhere near the mental health resources to deal with what's coming at us is my explanation. Grooming. Jesus christ. Are you trolling?
So you don't have an explanation for it, but you can say with certainty it's not a byproduct of children being conditioned to believe it is normal to question one's gender in many cases prior to puberty? Perhaps you haven't seen this:
why don't YOU prove it IS grooming & tell us how that is being operationalized rather than passing the buck. LOL. &, no I did not watch the vid. Grooming Grooming Grooming. China China China. lordy
Exactly. Anecdotally I know of several teens who decided they were trans in their teen years, and they all either had underlying mental health issues or overall were just socially awkward or perhaps not conventionally “attractive”. My autistic son spent a month in a community with disabled residents and today he was telling me his autistic roommate is now thinking he may be trans. The trans population is much more likely to be autistic than the neurotypical population. By entertaining the notion they are trans not only puts them in the awkward position of being somebody who they aren’t it also means their underlying mental health issues may not be addressed.
What you are describing is historically those who were identified as trans. It typically started young, well before puberty and typically boys. In more recent years it has changed to mostly teens who have decided they are trans while showing no signs before that and more often than not are girls.
You have medical "professionals" making propaganda videos targeting naive, susceptible parents. It is 100% grooming. Apparently, you don’t understand how grooming can manifest itself and you’ll avoid videos that may severely disrupt your narrative and take you away from your safe space.
