A thread showing how this claim isn't true -- not even in the slightest. 🧵/12
The trial is based on the ICD-11 definition of "Gender incongruence". This definition was drafted by WPATH.  2/12amo_hub_content.s3.amazonaws.com/Association140…

The puberty blocker "trial" isn't as a real clinical trial, but rather a way for the medical profession to wash their hands of the children currently taking puberty blockers. 🧵/20 Hilary Cass says there are "no limit" to places for the first phase of a clinical trial. Everyone knows that isn't how clinical trials work. 2/20

In 2024, I made a complaint to Action for Children (£155,280,000, 2024) about their content on "gender identity". It went all the way to CEO, Paul Carberry. I was surprised when I later found out that Carberry is a murderer. 🧵/24 In May 2024, I complained to Action for Children that their definition of "gender dysphoria" as being a matter of having a "mismatch[ed]  gender identity" was misleading, and targeting this narrative at children was causing a social contagion.  2/24 parents.actionforchildren.org.uk/feelings-behav…Image

There are men with autogynephilia, who will undergo surgery to resemble women, so that they can contemplate themselves in the mirror, and be attracted to what they see. 1/5 Men with autogynephilia insist that their motivation is not a paraphilia, but an expression of their internal female "gender identity". This is what the medical profession also now believes... 2/5

I predict the NHS will replace its page on "Gender dysphoria" with "Gender incongruence" this is why. 🧵/18nhs.uk/conditions/gen… The current NHS England page on "Gender dysphoria" is incorrect. The DSM-5 defines "gender dysphoria" as a matter of atypical sexuality/sexual orientation: "early-onset gender dysphoria" is related to nascent homosexuality and desistence. 2/18 Image

In its puberty blocker trial article, the BBC introduces Natacha: "She believes that puberty blockers should be an option available for young people". Natacha is actually male, apparently with "late-onset gender dysphoria". 👇🧵/24 This is breathtaking, given men with "late-onset gender dysphoria" (i.e. autogynephilic) are known to project their own experience onto children with "early-onset gender dysphoria" (i.e. homosexual), and recommend they receive medical treatments. 2/24

The fake "mismatched" "gender identity" narrative has caused a mental health social contagion amongst adolescent girls, which is now resulting in thousands of double mastectomies; an atrocity. The medical profession need to tell the truth about autogynephilia. 🧵/24 Image The narrative targeted at the public and children is that there are a class of "trans" people, even children, who have some internal "essence" or "gender identity" that has "mismatched". This is also the premise that the medical profession is using to prescribe treatments. 2/24

The Cass Review should have ended the "gender identity" scandal in 2024, but the medical profession did the same as with contaminated blood: it "[hid] the truth" by telling "half truths", "deliberate concealment" and not "telling people what they had a right to know". 1/37 Image The Cass Review uses the term "gender dysphoria" from the DSM-5 but doesn't explain fully what it is; it told a half truth. 2/37

Young Minds (£7,6million, 2024) removes content targeted at children, saying "[puberty blockers] give you more time to explore your gender identity". This new content was published even after the Cass Review and UK government ban. 1/26 Image In April 2024, the Cass Review found that the "rationale for early puberty suppression remains unclear, with weak evidence regarding the impact on gender dysphoria... The effect on cognitive and psychosexual development remains unknown." 2/26

In 2024, I contacted the mental health charity Mind, (£62,67 million, 2024) asking them to investigate the dramatic rise in adolescent girls and young women being referred to "gender clinics". 1/28 Image I sent a message and a memo to Mind and its CEO, Dr. Sarah Hughes, asking her to reconsider signing the "Stand with trans" pledge, as this drastic increase in referrals meant the “trans” issue was more complex than first appeared. 2/28

How is it still possible that men who apparently have "late-onset gender dysphoria" are still able to publicly promote puberty blockers for children with "early-onset gender dysphoria"? This mad conflict of interest cannot keep going unchallenged. 1/21 Image In the DSM-5 "gender dysphoria" is split into two types. "Early-onset" and "late-onset". "Early-onset" is characterised by "perva­sive cross-gender behaviors and the expressed desire to be the other gender". The DSM-4 notes this was usually a boy thing, at a ratio of 5:1. 2/21

The chair of the "Gender Services" clinical commissioning programme, Prof. James Palmer, doesn't appear to know what is happening in the clinical commissioning of "gender services". The NHS is not in control of what is happening in "gender services" at the very highest level. 1/8 After the Cass Review found that puberty blockers had been prescribed with unclear rationale and weak evidence to children, I made a complaint to the NHS regarding its involvement with GIRES, who been training the NHS to prescribe puberty blockers to tomboys: 2/8

The Charity Commission doesn't enforce charity law that requires education charities produce "accurate, evidence-based, and balanced" content, and doesn't enforce its regulatory guidance consistently. Its inaction has helped create the "gender identity" scandal. 1/26. Image Link to my letter to David Holdsworth, CEO, and PDF of my 3 years of complaints to the Commission:
