    Id like to add one that’s blatantly obvious, but somehow gets overlooked a lot.

    Even if 95% of gender dysphoric children were to “age out of it”, that doesn’t mean the other 5% should not get help.

    If 95% of children age out of it, all that means is that there should be a diagnostic barrier and a process by which treatment is carefully administered after due consideration and no irreversible steps should be taken too early. which is exactly how it is already being done.

      Yeah, I will never stop being dumbfounded how the transphobes are making an argument for better trans health care and everyone treats it as the exact opposite.

    I once had a phase where I ate a salami sandwich every day for like three weeks.

    I’m a cis woman and I used to sometimes wish I were born of the opposite sex, because patriarchy. The daily fail’s willful misinterpretation of the study mentioned would wrongfully count me as a trans person who had “grown out of it”.
