I should have stated ‘for breast cancer’ rather than ‘with breast cancer’ as the rates include individuals undergoing mastectomies both prophylactically and therapeutically. Sources for regret rates of mastectomy within this group: …

It’s remarkable that someone believed tweeting this would help public perception of both the trans community and the UN.

Turban et al. (2021) published a study that concluded that gender identity conversion efforts (GICE) are detrimental to mental health. This study was thoroughly refuted by D’Angelo et al. (2021). They attempted to publish their Letter to the Editor in the same journal, JAMA…

Yet another tweet brimming with outright dishonesty. Must I repeat this every time? Have you even bothered to read the bill? 1. This bill does not address any matters concerning the LGBTQ community. Not once is this topic mentioned within its contents. 2. The bill does not…

I’m an emergency medicine doctor. When you come to my ER, I will take care of you even if your beliefs are different than mine. My job is to take care of patients. If you would deny a patient care because they have different beliefs than you, then you should not be in medicine

Dr. Diane Ehrensaft, who co-authored the APA guidance on the “Gender Affirmative Model”, describes how she came up with the terms, Gender Prius and Gender Minotaur. “Most of the kids who are gender Minotaurs love mermaids”.

If this were true, we should have observed, in kids, a similar and recurrent pattern of suicides explicitly linked to gender identity issues in the past.

It appears that children and even many adults do not know who they are. Doubt concerning one’s transgender identity remains a prevalent and recurring theme in trans social media forums.

The American Psychiatric Association changed the terminology in the DSM from “Gender Identity Disorder” to “Gender Dysphoria” in 2013. The ideological battle we are involved in is largely a consequence of the deliberate manipulation of language across multiple fronts.

Many Twitter users don't read tweets. They just react to trigger words before fully making sense of the information at hand.

@SethDillon Continued shielding from consequences impedes thoughtful decision-making. Those who decide to go forward with transitioning must realize that the world won't necessarily reorganize around them. It's crucial to weigh the realities beforehand.

The era has passed when doctors were perceived as infallible bearers of divine wisdom, with the common “man” unquestioningly accepting their proclamations as absolute truth. If I have to debate ideologues (some of whom were wrongfully handed medical degrees) who claim that men…

No medical professional should ever agree to do this. Never. It elevates the conspiracy guy, demeans the medical professional, and will only convince the kooks out there that RFK is right because a real doctor took the time to debate him. Never debate a conspiracy theorist.

@BackBar67 But they couldn’t have known earlier as the claim is that sex is “assigned at birth”. How did they expect the doctors to know before birth? 🤷🏾

It is transphobic to write “transwoman” instead of “trans woman” as they are just a type of women and are not fundamentally different from (biological) women. Source: r/trans

This individual has expressed that he would not be returning to the hospital where he had the “bottom surgery” for follow-up. Both the hospital and the surgeon would consider his procedure a success. Many such cases.

Dr. McNamara frequently refers to the “Standards of Care” established by WPATH when asked about systematic reviews that support GAC. In truth, there are no systematic reviews that support this practice. However, it is important to note that the term, “Standards of Care” itself
