Just as bad, oldcrone, those members of WPATH who influence the guidelines of medical treatment for children and vulnerable people dismiss detransitioning as just being part of ‘the gender journey’. While those same members acknowledge that children are not understanding what they are consenting to and most of the time, neither do the parents! And yet those same clinicians still proceed.
So, a child who cannot consent, who cannot conceptualise what they are consenting to, are then blamed for consenting.
And I predict that Fox will dismiss this. They have already attempted to deflect their ideologically driven support by saying they are not a doctor so they will not comment on the lack of evidence supporting these medical treatments. That is some intellectual cowardice in my opinion considering the studies are there and not hard to find and read.
I suspect ‘some’ people who write platitudes and who seem to lack the capability to make a basic analysis of information, to critically think through an issue and extrapolate the possible outcomes, don’t have a strong ethical framework. They operate purely on ‘being kind’ without interrogating what that means in reality.
