Once again pointing out that this government won’t be able to pass a true ban on conversion therapy without acknowledging it is *current* NHS policy to do conversion therapy on trans kids. That’s what this is.

The NHS are forcibly detransitioning trans kids in Brighton and calling it “managed withdrawal.” Their own impact assessment acknowledges trans kids will be at increased risk of harm as a result, don’t want this, and are likely to just use DIY hormones instead

No way NYT is this fucking stupid.

The only reasonable conclusion is that they are actively aiding a genocide by spinning a narrative that ensnares us; a narrative that tricks us into believing that wanton slaughter is just.

Bull fucking shit.

A photo of Willow River Park in Kitchener,  Ontario. In the foreground, there is a gravel path, with trees on the left and right. Further back in the photo there is a stream reflecting the trees above, and in the background there are willow trees, a few other deciduous and coniferous trees, and a picnic bench and other bench. In the very back of the photo, there is a white gazebo surrounded by flowers, and a very blue sky.

Really been enjoying the view at Willow River Park Lately. I really hope the City of Kitchener actually renames it to that. It is a way better name than the colonialist name it was given.

watching israeli teenagers protest what is happening in gaza by burning their IDF conscription notices and say they would rather go to prison than serve in genocide is so powerful — a reminder that none of us ask to be born in a particular place, that consciousness is available wherever we are

Today we went out to tell The New York Times "Enough is ENOUGH!" with their blatant anti-trans bias.

The Times' misrepresentative reporting on trans healthcare has been weaponized by anti-trans policy makers, yet they refuse to listen to transgender voices when they are reporting on trans lives.

These families say they're leaving the U.S. because of its anti-transgender climate One of the families said they decided to move from Colorado to New Zealand after their 9-year-old trans daughter’s health care was interrupted.

Trans people and their families are fleeing the United States. This country is making refugees of its own citizens.

So much of reactionary centrism is the belief that you can be a "polite bigot" and not enable fascism.

They want their transphobia, racism, and sexism but hold the authoritarianism. The problem is that authoritarian movements are built on bigotry.

FUCK OFF YOU ARSEHOLES.
There is only so much professionalism, particular as a non-binary, autistic, individual, I can muster at the moment. Stop treating us as if we are "broken" as if we are "wrong". How hard is it to accept us as us? I want to cry at the way we are talked about.

Transgender teen can't legally change name until age 21, Mississippi Supreme Court rules The Mississippi Supreme Court has ruled that a 16-year-old trans boy cannot legally change his name even with the support of both his parents.

The Mississippi Supreme Court has ruled 8-1 that a trans teen cannot legally change their name until they turn 21 solely because they are trans despite having the support of both parents. This is unconscionable.

‘Holistic’ care not hormones for children’s gender treatment on NHS
Ben Spencer - Science Editor

Camilla Kingdon, a paediatrician, says the subject has been “toxic”.
No new prescriptions for cross-sex hormones have been issued to children since the controversial Tavistock gender clinic in London was replaced a year ago, NHS leaders have said.

The new NHS children’s gender service prioritises “holistic” care for children with gender dysphoria rather than fast-tracking them on to hormones, an accusation that was levelled at the Tavistock’s Gender Identity Development Service (Gids) before it closed in March last year.

The service, which is running at Great Ormond Street in London, Alder Hey in Liverpool and Bristol Royal Hospital for Children, has also prescribed no new puberty blockers, which are banned until a clinical trial starts later this year, pending ethical approval.

It marks a fundamental switch in approach to the treatment of children with gender dysphoria, with doctors slowing down the route to prescribing hormonal drugs.

Between April 2018 and December 2022, a fifth of patients referred to Gids were put on puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones or both.

A year ago, a review of the Tavistock service by the paediatrician Baroness Cass criticised the “greater readiness” to use hormones for gender dysphoria despite “remarkably weak evidence” for their use.

A year ago, a review of the Tavistock service by the paediatrician Baroness Cass criticised the “greater readiness” to use hormones for gender dysphoria despite “remarkably weak evidence” for their use.

Her report said: “Some practitioners abandoned normal clinical approaches to holistic assessment, which has meant that this group of young people have been exceptionalised compared to other young people with similarly complex presentations. They deserve very much better.”

Cross-sex hormones induce physical changes to allow patients to develop bodily features that align with a different gender identity.

Those born male take oestrogen to develop breasts and redistribute fat and muscle mass; those born female take testosterone to deepen the voice, increase muscle mass and develop facial and body hair. Children prescribed the drugs at the Tavistock are continuing to receive their prescriptions.

James Palmer, NHS England’s national medical director for specialised services, stressed that the door for the new prescription of cross-sex hormones was still open. “There may be a circumstance where it is important for care,” he said.

“The services need the option of taking someone into masculinising or feminising hormones, if that really is the most important thing to be done. But the services have not identified an individual yet for whom it would be a really important bit of their care pathway.”

If doctors decide there is a case for hormones to be prescribed, the decision must be agreed by a national multidisciplinary team of experts, chaired by Camilla Kingdon, the former president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.

She said the new service was about more than hormones. “This is not just about endocrinology. It’s about a holistic assessment of a child or young person within the context of their family.

“That means very detailed assessments looking at the child’s wider physical health, mental health, thinking about the child in the context of their school and so on. It involves psychologists, psychiatrists, paediatricians, clinical nurse specialists, speech therapists, occupational therapists.”

It involves psychologists, psychiatrists, paediatricians, clinical nurse specialists, speech therapists, occupational therapists.”

Recruitment has begun to open a fourth gender centre at Addenbrooke’s in Cambridge, with eight planned across the country, each seeing 25 new child patients a month. Kingdon, who also chairs the provider network of new NHS gender clinics, said finding staff has been a struggle. “That’s due to the politicised and sometimes toxic nature of this topic,” she said. “It’s not necessarily the sort of environment that has people queueing up to work in it.”

Palmer said a particular challenge had been navigating “a hugely divided lobby of stakeholders”, adding: “There’s the very liberal end of the spectrum that think [we should focus purely] on access to a transitional arrangement. At the other end, people say NHS resources should not be spent on this area at all.”

Great Ormond Street and Alder Hey children’s gender services opened in June and Bristol started seeing patients in November. So far, 250 children have been seen, with a waiting list of 6,000 that is coming down after peaking in February.

“When we started, we had some individuals waiting for more than six years to be seen,” Palmer said. “By the summer, if our maths is correct, no one will be waiting for more than four years to be seen, but it will take another three or four years to get to ... something much more manageable.”
