The vast majority of doctors that specialize in gender care and endocrinology disagree with that small minority of doctors who aren’t specialists in this field.

It’s like asking a dentist for their opinion on brain surgery. They’re not qualified to have one.

The Cass report has been thoroughly debunked. This is the exact report I was referring to when I talked about Drs with agendas commenting on things they’re not experts on.

Here’s an article discussing the recent study that demonstrates how gender-affirming care bans are killing trans kids.

And several articles debunking the report you keep motioning towards.

And let’s get real here. You’re the same poster that believes hormones are cosmetic. So you don’t believe in science, biology, or medicine. Or are just blantantly transphobic and let whatever non-sense fall out of your mouth that you think will prove your point. Who’s really harming kids here? I hope you get banned, fr.

You think you’re more qualified than a doctor to assess whether a kid is capable of making bodily decisions? You can only speak for yourself.

You’re still nowhere near the expertise of doctors who go through nedical school for a decade or more and some even write papers for those peer reviewed journals. And some of their doctor peers review those papers before publishing journals.

Nobody is going to listen to you or some insurance company bean counter about medical advice over a qualified medical professional. They certainly should make it illegal for insurance companies to deny care contradicting doctors.

At what point in your childhood were you so sure that you were not the gender that matches your biological sex that suicide was not an insignificant consideration due to the lack of support?

Yes, you have already been shown by others why your meta-study, which predates the study the article I linked to discusses, is both faulty and doesn’t make the argument you think it makes.

You should be aware that when new information replaces old information in science, you should defer to the new information. You are doing the opposite.
