Jesus.
Sorry to read that but it seems standard for a lot of wrongful diagnosis given on this over the last decade or so.
Thereās tonnes of these people found on YouTube giving interviews and even evidence to committees on the issue and how they were pushed in the direction of gender reaffirming care. Nearly all on the spectrum.
People who suffer gender dysphoria typically begin to display it very young and itās constantly there. It doesnāt just happen at 18.
Iāve a sample case of one. Iām absolutely open minded to be proved wrong on it though. And it wouldnāt bother me in the slightest if I was wrong. Seems to be common sense that this would happen though.
Are you okay, bro?
Anecdotes are not data.
Are you looking for a boyfriend?
No just in general
I do my own thing.
OK, I suppose an 18 year old is a very different kettle of fish, adult and all that,
My pals child is only 13 now but has been dressing as a girl for the past 18 months, heās become very open minded about it, his āsonā was always very feminine as a child, heād obviously prefer if it wasnāt the case, I donāt think thereās been any talk of permanent changes but I guess itās a matter of time.
Itās easy to talk shit on the internet about a lot of things that havenāt come to your door
Of course it happens.
What are the rates? A quick Google on this would suggest varying figures but all the ones I see are low, some under 1%.
Go through the spectrum of surgery offered across all different fields. Iām currently in a predicament where I have been offered a surgery on my eye where the surgeon specifically stated the risk of a worse outcome than I currently have. That means there is potential regret if I decide to go ahead with the surgery. Should that surgery be therefore banned because it carries risk of regret?
Check out the stories of regret and suicides after laser eye surgery. This is now a very common procedure with real risk of regret.
Should all plastic surgery be banned? It seems to me that regret and mental illness are much bigger issues with regard to plastic surgery than with surgeries for trans people - of which there are numerous different types, many having nothing to do with genitalia.
My answer to the questjon āshould all plastic surgery be banned?ā is a firm ānoā.
Itās refreshing that most of us are having an adult conversation on it
Come on ffs
And lads here dump on Nuala and Breda and āgossipy womenā, oblivious.
Ok. Thanks again for your interaction.
Have you read this budā¦ its not very scientific to refuse to publish results because the results go against your beliefs as this ādoctorā is doing. Im sure you agreeā¦ But here we are in the year of our lord 2024ā¦
Itās like the Tavistock centreā¦ scores of doctors silenced when they tried to speak up against giving drugs and surgery in cases where they felt it wasnāt needed.
And after leaving their jobs they couldnāt speak out publicly for fear of the mob calling them anti transā¦a pattern you even see on here if you donāt fall in with the group think.
Thatās the truth.
Ukrainian refugees?
Thatās the essence of most discussion tho and especially on the internet ? As someone thatās in education Iām sure you promote objective debate rather than subjective.
Tracksuit is correct in that the subjective is far more painful and real but that doesnāt negate philosophical debate on issues eitherā¦ society marches forward on objective research and debate rather than the individual experience. In fact, most of the time itās at the expense of individual experience.
.
Iām tempted to give that a grudging like, itās good
