A pernicious rumor started by Jack Turban is that my daughter was "sent" to a horse farm to isolate & "deprogram" her. Nope. Chiara CHOSE her internship, an experience she found enriching. And far from being isolated, she made new friends & became an accomplished horsewoman.
Don't believe it? Read the article she wrote.

Still doubtful? Watch her most recent interview with @BenjaminABoyce .

And with @UpperhandMars
Always amazing: Those who constantly tell us to listen to "lived experience" are so hellbent on DENYING the "lived experience" of desisters/detransitioners. In Turban's case, it's even worse: He weaponized Chiara's enriching experience to falsely claim it as "conversion therapy."
On a positive note, as a result of Turban's absurdities, several detrans women have been having a bit of fun with the Transphobia Horse Farm idea...

Thread:
This week Pres. Biden's nominee for Asst. Health Secretary, Rachel Levine, was grilled during confirmation hearings. The MSM is unified in condemning Sen. Rand Paul, who pressed Levine (to no avail) to opine on under-18 medical transition. 1/n
It's no secret Levine is a proponent of the "affirmative" model of pediatric transition, as demonstrated in the video described in this quoted tweet. Among other things, Levine thinks teens living on the street should be prescribed cross-sex hormones. 2/n

Levine also says in the 2017 speech that under-18s can and should in some cases be allowed to undergo gender surgeries. But Levine is hardly alone in the "affirmative" clinician crowd... 3/n

What actually happened is Levine was repeatedly asked whether Levine was for or against **minors** receiving hormones and/or surgeries without parental consent. Levine refused to answer the question. Repeatedly.

Rachel Levine could become US Assistant Sec. of Health. Paul cited the #KeiraBell case, quoting Bell directly: "I made a brash decision as a teenager, as a lot of teenagers do. Trying to find competence & happiness, except now the rest of my life will be negatively affected."

While now a legal adult, the most intimate details of Jazz's life continue to be broadcast to the world & generate cash for @TLC & the Jennings family. But as Jazz ages out, now there are two more young MTF stars to feed to the prurient public, one on @netflix , the other @HBO.
Kai stars as "Bailey" in the recently released Netflix series, after several years accompanying mom as a child trans activist.
Then there's Avery, the latest entrant in the trans-child media industry, starring in the HBO film "Transhood." Avery also started as a child activist, even making the cover of National Geographic a few years ago.

While this is PREFERABLE to a more impulsive young teen, it doesn't obviate the fact that even a relatively mature 13-year-old often holds views that may change (or they may regret) as an adult.
To put a finer point on it:

Raise your hand if you were absolutely confident of something at 14 that you now think is totally wrong. Now, what if that something you firmly believed was an irreversible decision (such as permanent infertility)?
🖐️
And yes, puberty blockers by themselves don't cause permanent infertility, but nearly ALL blocked kids proceed to cross sex hormones (as was noted in the court case), and that combination is what sterilizes.

Press statement from#KeiraBell (h/t @Belstaffie)

“These drugs seriously harmed me in more ways than one and they have harmed many more…particularly girls and young women.” 1/n
"I would like to personally call on professionals and clinicians to create better mental health services and models to help those dealing with gender dysphoria to reconcile with their sex. " 2/n #KeiraBell
"And furthermore I call on society to accept those who do not conform to sex stereotypes -- not push them into a life of drugs and concealment from who they truly are. This means stopping the homophobia, the misogyny and the bullying of those that are different.” 3/n #KeiraBell

Amazing news out of the UK today, where the High Court ruled children cannot meaningfully consent to what was deemed experimental puberty blocker treatment. #KeiraBell

Now it's time for the (far more extreme) "affirmative care" industry in the US to face a similar ruling.
"In short, the treatment [puberty blocking] may be supporting the persistence of GD [gender dysphoria] in circumstances in which it is at least possible that without that treatment, the GD would resolve itself."

Full court decision here: #KeiraBell

Judge raises concern about children on the autism spectrum & with other mental health issues. "We found this...apparent lack of investigation of this issue surprising." #KeiraBell
