If you haven’t seen the desperate protesting the youth-run group “Trans Kids Deserve Better” have been doing, then it’s probably worth looking into. The current restrictions have already been devastating to these children, but they don’t have a voice at all. It’s heartbreaking.
Instead of giving it to the kids they should give it to me. I wanna get hench fast and easy.

The same Cass review that has been massively discredited and shown to have been incredibly biased and was done with a result already in mind and making up evidence to justify it?
That Cass review, which the government refuses to acknowledge should be completely ignored and a proper independent expert review done instead?
See the recent BMC article on this, for just how badly done and awful the Cass review was:

> **Results**
>
> Using the ROBIS tool, we identified a high risk of bias in each of the systematic reviews driven by unexplained protocol deviations, ambiguous eligibility criteria, inadequate study identification, and the failure to integrate consideration of these limitations into the conclusions derived from the evidence syntheses. We also identified methodological flaws and unsubstantiated claims in the primary research that suggest a double standard in the quality of evidence produced for the Cass report compared to quality appraisal in the systematic reviews.

> We discuss these issues in relation to how evidence regarding gender affirming care is framed, the wider political context, and the future for gender affirming care. The Cass report’s recommendations, given its methodological flaws and misrepresentation of evidence, warrant critical scrutiny to ensure ethical and effective support for gender-diverse youth.
The UK is not for trans people anymore. It’s just not a country any trans person should want to be in.
I hope the youth mobility scheme allows some to achieve a better life in countries that actually respect their dignity and basic human rights.
This was in response to a lawsuit brought by the anti-trans groups. They sued to try to get cross-sex hormones banned.
A handy reminder that with religious conservatives, if something goes against their beliefs it isn’t enough for *them* not to do it, *no one* gets to do it.
Imagine if it was Jehovah’s Witnesses suing to get blood transfusions banned for everyone, or anti-vaxxers suing to get vaccines banned for everyone.
That the court even considered this – and the Government seems likely to go along anyway – shows how badly our political establishment has been captured by this extreme anti-trans ideology.
Blockers were meant to be the cautious compromise, but can’t have that so the logical alternative is to give them HRT. But clearly that’s too risky and no other good options exist (by design) so it’s gotta go too.
Nevermind the fact this means you’re going to have a lot more teenagers doing diy hrt, weret keeping them safe
It’s honestly pretty disturbing to see how determined people are to make the UK entirely inhospitable to trans people
And of course in the interest of balance, not a word from any trans people who might be affected by this was included in the article
Some people regret it, so ban it for everyone. Great.
Fundamentally this is about the erasure of trans people, lobbied by a group who believe they don’t or shouldn’t exist.
Things like this are why the U.K. has dropped down the list of LGBT friendly countries.
There are a range of measures that are hostile to trans people.
What’s sad is only a few years ago no one cared about this stuff and now a well funded group of individuals have just pushed their hate agenda on society and people have lapped it up
I’m completely confused by this –
I thought hormones were already banned for under 18s unless medically necessary?
Most people with experience with hormones (and I include myself on this – self administer testosterone due to low testosterone, and will occasionally up the dose for a “steroid cycle” for gym purposes) know that this can and will cause life changing effects so we shouldn’t be giving them to people who haven’t finished puberty. Every trans person I know agrees and always has done.
I was always under the impression, as are trans people I know/speak to, that the “they’re giving hormones to children!” stuff was a right-wing anti-trans smear campaign that was simply spreading false information to cause moral panic.
