If you want to read more about the Tavistock after watching #Newsnight, have a look at what we've written. All the issues were apparent at this first seminar we went to in 2016, by Bernadette Wren in Cambridge. transgendertrend.com/uk-treatment-d…
The C4 documentary Kids on the Edge: The Gender Clinic gave real insight into the workings of the clinic. A precocious 8 year-old boy who likes glitter and make-up is affirmed as a girl; a bullied, autistic 11 yr-old girl is affirmed as a boy. #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/kids-on-the-ed…
Bernadette Wren's talk at this conference in 2017 was illuminating. She expressed doubts about teenage girls, the high rate of early abuse and neglect, autism, the potential of future regret, the influence of lobby groups pushing transition. #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/hot-topics-in-…
Michael Biggs researched the Tavistock puberty blockers trial and found an interim result that blockers increase feelings of suicidality. The story was covered on Newsnight and globally. First published on Transgender Trend. #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/tavistock-expe…
The issue of fast-tracking of older adolescents is of particular concern. The age-group 17-25 is very vulnerable, they go straight to the adult clinic, hormones on demand. @SusanMatthews wrote about the GIDS pathway here. #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/tavistock-gids…
Tavistock GIDS clinicians had tried to raise concerns previously - as early as 2012. Two clinicians sent us this letter they had written to the Guardian and allowed us to publish it. The Guardian ignored it. #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/2017-letter-gi…
The Health Research Authority reviewed the ethical review process for the Tavistock's puberty blockers trial. They found nothing wrong - except puberty blockers have been mis-sold, they are not a 'pause button.' #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/health-researc…
The Tavistock look like gatekeepers compared to the US affirmative care system. Little children given hormones, double mastectomies at age 13. Mermaids & Gendered Intelligence are pushing for this system in the UK. #Newsnight transgendertrend.com/johanna-olson-…
