Is there ANY concern among Trans Rights Activists for the health wellbeing of adolescents receiving gender affirming drugs that the findings of the Finnish study might be true

You would expect Trans Rights Activists to be concerned about the physical mental health of gender questioning children, yet I haven't seen a single TRA express the slightest concern that gender affirming care might be causing harm to young kids, who they see as transgender. Not here, not on r/transgenderuk, not on x.
They are attacking the credibility of the study, but given its size and the very shocking findings, why aren't at least some of them expressing a little concern that there might be something in it? I mean, these are vulnerable kids, and they're taking really powerful drugs with major long-term consequences, and now it looks like there's evidence that it may be doing the opposite of what it's supposed to...
How could you not be concerned, whatever your agenda? They're kids!
Aren't trans rights activists interested in the right of trans kids to be safe and healthy?
Am I missing something?

That's exactly what women told lesbians. The 'Lavender Menace' fought against such beliefs.

Edited

I suppose you also think men can be lesbians.

Ugh.

GreyskySexRealistsky · 16/04/2026 20:51

Still baiting the women for attention

I think a lot of posts are fillers to run this thread to the maximum. For TRAs, the sooner people forget about this Finnish study the better. But the same team are going to publish more data on the severity of mental health problems soon. Once again, there is no escaping reality.

Yep.

And still no concerns for children just endless, dreary me me me.

Never anything constructive. Never anything with any concern for women. Never anything even remotely interesting. It's soooooo boring at this point.

🤨

Is that the point??! To bore us into submission??!

Or that anyone registered as male at birth can be a lesbian?

Yes, I thought your first answer was a bit too good to be true.

While there is quite a lot of abuse being thrown in my direction (No I am not going to itemise it for you), FWR feels no different than if I were to find myself in a room with evangelical Christians who believed I was going to hell for not believing their beliefs.

As a woman, I belong in women's space. I don't find myself in some specific spaces because those spaces specifically involve issues or functions that do not apply to me. A person would have to be cruel or insane to demand access to all spaces (I am not going to itemise these for you either).

But if you enter that space, it no longer becomes a woman’s space. It becomes a mixed sex space. So you entering that space means that you change the very nature of that space. There are no women’s issues that would apply to you, as despite your very sincere wish, you are not and can never be a woman.

But if you believe a male can identify as a female homosexual, aren’t you therefore denying homosexuality abd being very homophobic. If a lesbian is not defined as a female homosexual, but someone of either sex who loves women, wouldn’t that include all straight men also?

Oh don't be all 'words mean things' and use logic and make sense.

Good grief. 🙄

Amazing, spending a lifetime in women’s social spaces and groups and only ever met one lesbian. One! And even that one could be a man for all we know. Clearly onepostwonder doesn’t move in very inclusive circles.

onepostwonder · 16/04/2026 16:21

I don't believe I was incorrect. With your response, I feel we disagree on biologic relevance to some spaces. But I believe we would probably agree on more spaces than we disagree.

It isn't up to you to decide which spaces women get to have to themselves. You don't decide which you will graciously consent to allow us and which you consider entitled to barge into.

Your wants and preferences don't override women's.

Women fought for women's spaces. We need our stuff back.

My answer was specific to the question asked. Of course I know more than one lesbian. The response to my post was made in bad faith.

And here's another one.

What is it with the 'words mean things ' sense-and-logic brigade this evening?

It's an absolute bloody outrage! Bigots!

No, it isn't up to me to decide. It is as much my decision as it is your decision.

I am pulled into women's spaces and repelled from men's spaces. I go in the path I feel belongingness.

NotBadConsidering · 16/04/2026 22:23

”Bad faith” is saying males can be lesbians.

"bad faith" is a pattern of response much longer than that single post.

So how are you defining lesbian in this case? The actual way or the homophobic way used by gender ideologists?

GreyskySexRealistsky · 16/04/2026 22:25

No one born male can ever be a woman

I’ll report for training forthwith ma’am.
