I don't think this has been shared, has it? Worth a read.

Everything we have been warning about is confirmed in this court case and quite rightly the judges were horrified.

"Compounding these significant physical risks are psychological ones. Stopping a teenager's puberty so that she has, say, the vagina of a ten year old, also renders her out of step from her peers. Far from a "neutral" intervention, the "young person will have missed a period of...normal biological, psychological and social experience through adolescence" which "can never truly be recovered or 'reversed.'"

We've been saying this for years to indifference or abuse.

I've been listening to Abigail Shrier on various podcasts and she has done the proper investigative journalism into the situation that none of the so-called journalists at say The Guardian dare to do.

Those US ages of consent are horrifying. Testosterone for 15yo without parental consent? 13year olds? It’s dangerously irresponsible.

Child marriage is legal in the US, so in that context it's sadly unsurprising.

"The court's careful review of the clinic's "affirmation model," which directs therapists and doctors to agree with the patient's self-diagnosis of "gender dysphoria"—revealed a system recklessly unmoored from the cautious, evidence-based approach that characterizes other areas of medicine."

This is key.

Absolutely. It's so out of step with everything else.
