LGBT

I liked this rundown of the Cass Review because the press release and the attached briefing go into why the Cass Review is bad science. A few items from the briefing:

• Trans people were excluded from the core team, but conversion therapist advocates were included.
• The bar for a "quality" study was set impossibly high, requiring blinding and a control group. Blinding is not possible with puberty blockers or hormones because the effects of either are obvious. A control group has significant unethical issues.
• Some claims are made without evidence, like "For many centuries transgender people have been predominantly trans females, commonly presenting in adulthood." No such evidence exists.

I’m honestly disgusted how many liberals and centrists have decided to go mask off after this hack job report came out. So much “progress” is just people saying whatever to fit in, it seems.
