Ryan: a few hundred

Actual data: close to 800; not what most people would call “a few”

Wonder why we have trouble seeing this guy as a dispassionate reporter of the facts

They will not stop at teachers, not as though banning trans teachers isn't reprehensible enough

This will eventually expand into a ban in anyone is a position of public trust; health care workers, legal professionals, and any other regulated professions will likely be targetted

It is the mere fact that 90,000 people generally satisfied people responded to a call to participate which is an important indicator

A similarly designed survey of 9,000, or even 900 dissatisfied detransitioners would also be quite compelling, but so far, nothing to see....

The Polite Transphobe talking point on this is that you can't find detransitioners in surveys of trans people.

This only makes sense if you think detransition happens suddenly, with no period of regret beforehand.

Jesse Singal Here is a survey of 90K trans people - 94% had improved life satisfaction after transition (3%) remained the same. Please link to your survey of 90K de-transitioners with a 94% regret rate. nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-ne…

There is nothing courageous about a deeply flawed report that contradicts the recommendations of the World Health Organization, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Medical Association, and others. Enough is enough, New York Times Opinion.

This is very interesting.

Having read the report's recommendations, they are not out of alignment with what is reported in the KiteTrust document.

Unfortunately, Cass provided just enough vagueness to provide transphobes with an undeserved cover of reasonableness.....

looks like the 'save women's sports' crowd feel the best way to do this is to shit on the WNBA...

Maybe, do women's sports s favor by buying an WNBA jersey or ticket; it will go a lot further than whining about the dozen trans girls running in high school track meets.

Important and reassuring paper!

Biologics and other immunosuppressives are safe (as expected) for patients with immune mediated diseases and a history of treated cancer!
