WPATH: Come for the glasnost, stay for the perestroika? @DrLauraEL & @DrEricaAnderson’s article in @washingtonpost shows pivot to exploratory therapy – positions @genspect parents at the heart of the controversy surrounding medical transition of kids washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/1…🧵 Image
It’s been clear for a while now that there’s trouble at the top of WPATH, with senior, big-hitter figures openly expressing their concerns that gender-questioning adolescents are receiving a fraction of the assessment they need. genspect.org/wpath-clinicia… 2/10
Much of the debate centres around what does (not) constitute conversion therapy. Can therapists explore root causes of gender distress? Currently many fear this will be misconstrued as “conversion therapy”, as if black magic or exorcism rather than compassionate exploration 3/10 Image

Drumroll… it’s time to reveal to the world
@Genspect’s first ever daughter website, statsforgender.org! This site is intended for parents, journalists, politicians, and the growing group of people who are interested in gender.
1/10
The world of gender has been blighted for far too long with low quality research, online surveys and selection bias. statsforgender.org gives you the information you need to know, in one place, without too much academic jargon. 2/10
statsforgender.org presents simple, easily understood information in a clear manner, eg: The term ‘Two-Spirit’ is not an ancient Native American term. It was invented in 1990. Evey point is backed up by research that has been selected for it's reliability

Dr Littman published her study of 256 parent reports of children who suddenly & without warning experience severe gender identity issues. Despite relentless efforts from trans activists who denied the existence of ROGD & cried ‘transphobia’ this study has prevailed
2/11 Image
This is child psychiatrist Jack Turban trying to dismiss our conference and ROGD by implying that it is unusual for parent reports to be utilised in a study on children's mental health. Jack is wrong; this is a well-established method within research

"A puberty-blocking implant for a 'dysphoric' 10- or 11-year-old, for example, costs between $5,000 and $95,000, depending on the brand, and requires yearly replacement until the child desists or begins cross-sex hormones."
nationalreview.com/2021/10/is-it-…
"Nearly all 'dysphoric' children on puberty blockers move on to cross-sex hormones, a lifelong dependence and a financial boon for Big Pharma. Many trans-identifying teens and adults become repeat surgical patients, too."
"Medical entrepreneurs hawk 'micro-doses' of hormones to the rapidly rising ranks of 'non-binary' young people seeking a customized look 'on the spectrum' between masculine and feminine."

Thread: BIG NEWS! @TheEconomist is reporting on the 3 prominent American WPATH member-clinicians who recently expressed their concerns about child transition. "The Anatomy of a Scandal: Opinion on the use of puberty blockers in America is turning" economist.com/united-states/…
"Though blockers are often described as operating like a pause button, most children prescribed them go on to cross-sex hormones. This combination can have irreversible consequences, including sterility and the inability to orgasm."
"Dr. Bowers told @AbigailShrier she was 'not a fan' of putting children on blockers early in puberty. She worried, she said, 'about their reproductive rights
later. I worry about their sexual health later and ability to and intimacy.'"
