Don’t know why I can’t post the link properly. Copy and paste this:

What does it say? I can't open it.

Thanks for posting the archive link.

At least one error but not a crucial one for the argument, though no factual error is a good thing (makes GIDS sound like it was for adults).

A very careful approach to one section of the argument.

Detransitioners say that only conservative media outlets seem interested in telling their stories, which has left them open to attacks as hapless tools of the right, something that frustrated and dismayed every detransitioner I interviewed. These are people who were once the trans-identified kids that so many organizations say they’re trying to protect — but when they change their minds, they say, they feel abandoned.

Just posting this part for those regulars who constantly moan about the source of articles posted on various threads.

Meanwhile, the Graun persists with carefully selected letters. The two that readers see first are impassioned longer ones in defence of #bekind and the two in support of biology are short and neither of the GC letters explain the wider implications for rape relief centres, domestic refuges, women’s short lists, sports, schools, health care, prisons, pools, toilets… Nice bit of disingenuous framing there.

A great thread here in response to the article - some enlightening stuff about the difficulties of desisting (even without having had medical treatment)
