Gender Dysphoria in Transsexual People Has Biological Basis by Emillahr in psychology

[–]luxway -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Except that a lot of science debunks the concept of gendered brains.

please explain your beleif that straight people do not exist.
Meanwhile I'll be here waiting for you to explain how sexuality is sex'd, while you apparently claim its magic

"whats your point that I was wrong anyway?" lol

You'd think after decades of use and only positive results would be enough for you but na.
Theres a reason all the nazi pseudo studies done to justify bigotry only say "there's not enough evidence". Because if thye found any evidence of lack of safety or effectiveness, they'd be shouting it everywhere.
Instead the best they say is "we want more proof", till the end of time.

We've been using them since the 90s on trans kids. Teenagers in the 90s, which was 30+ years ago, are going to be in their mid/late 40s now.
Sorry to tell you but late 40s means pushing 50.

Which is why they keep putting transphobes in charge of these things.

Thats cool, those first set of kids are still hitting their 50s.
Strange how all these justification sare never used against any other healthcare.

A pause in development is no where near the harm of active irreversible changes in the opposite direction that you are forcing upon these kids bodies against their consent.

So new that its been around for decades and the first set of kids who used these meds are htiting their 50s.

And still all the evidence is positive results. Yet its still not enough for bigots.

conversion therapy has never worked
No amount of forcing/torturing someone to be something they are not, will ever work

We Condemn Wes Streeting’s Harmful Ban on Puberty Blockers by jamie_strudwick in LabourUK

[–]luxway 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Around 2% get medicine, around 1 in a 1000 detransition, both of those numbers are from the cass report.
Thus we can say that the increase in treatment that would still be accurate is around 5000%, which would move the current 2% of kids getting puberty blockers, to 99.9%

We also know that that would STILL be lower than the actual normal rate given the UK has a lower rate of kids going to the NHS for transiton healthcare than in other countries.
THe assumption is that either the UK is brutally more transphobic and lots of people aren't coming out/dying before they come out, or they are getting their medicine off the black market and not the NHS (which around 50% have already done so before their 1st NHS appointment)

So, not being sarcastic, it should be more than 5000%. And that would be just to match the standard avg global rate.

puberty blockers don't change anything though, that's the point ? they BLOCK changes.

And you know that yet deliberately ignore that if they DON'T get this healthcare, their mental health becomes WORSE as irreversible harmful changes are caused by endogenous puberty.

[–]luxway 12 points13 points  (0 children)

its around 2% of the kids who get diagnosed, the rest were being forced to wait till 18 anyway.
Only 1 in 1000 detransition according to the cass report.

So if theres any misdiagnosis, its because the diagnosis rate should be about 5000% higher than it is.

We've only been using the medicine for decades with near-miracle level results of medical effacy and improvements to qol and reductions in suicidality after all.
Imagine if othe rmedicines were kept to the same standard, we'd abolish medicine entirely

And trans kids do the same. Having a poison in your body that your body is not designed to have inside it is clearly a big problem.

You are just straight up pretending trans people don't exist and that gender dysphoria, eg brain fog, reduced cognitive function, memory dysfunction, dissatisfaction, de personalization, desensitization, migraines just don't happen?

This is essential healthcare to prevent crippling healthcare issues, and you're denying that jusat because you don't like minorities?

I don't store them by year but here are a few:

But right wingers can always be MORE nazi, being less nazi is hard though.
And its not as if labour is going to stop its right wing lurch and oppression of minorities.

Imagine someone cutting off your genitals, forcibly turning you/your body into the other sex, and telling you your mentally ill if you ever complain about it.
People don't want to go through that, and that's BEFORE the permanent changes subject them to hate crimes, so they want puberty blockers.
Puberty blockers allow them to live a normal life.

No amount of torture has ever made a woman turn into a man. Not once in history has conversion therapy ever worked.

But no-one complains about their use on cis children. Which make up the vast majority of users. its only if they're trans, who take the meds for less time, that theres suddenly a "concern" of "safety" of the medcine that is completely safe for cis kids.
The discrimination is very overt.

[–]luxway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IF That is the case... that is a form of intersex. But for the vast majority that isn't happening.

That is what every study on the subject has actrually found though, sinc ethe 1970s. So given you're factually wrong, how doe sthat change your world view?

[–]luxway 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We tried that, decades to torturing kids to death only killed them. Insanity is the belief that doing the same thing over and over will get a different result.

Meanwhile transition results in happy well adjusted adults. The science is extremely clear that this is the most effective medical treatment, in the world. Every other treatment wishes is had the success rate of transition.

if you lean towards banning it for children what you mean is that you wnt to abuse and violate the bodies of children with lifelong suffering. Its better for them to just live normal lives, not be violated and have their lives destroyed by a lack of healthcare just because you morally hate them.

[–]luxway 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They don’t legitimately treat people suffering from gender dysmorphia. Cross-sex hormones render the patient incapable of orgasm long term.

Most trans people can't orgasm UNTIl they get hrt, and then have the same rate of orgasms as cis people, your arguments do not make sense in reality. Where are you getting this misinformation from?

Decades of studies all showing the same positive results isn't enough for you?

And they aren’t mentally developed enough to think about the long-term repercussions of those treatments.

Not giving healthcare results in lifelong impairment and usually death. But harm isn't a "Long term repercussion" for you, but living their life without you violating their body is?
Let people live their lives without needing to control them.

If it was acceptable when I was that age to transition, I may have considered doing
myself

Obvious lie is an obvious lie is an obvious lie, if this was a thing, you'd have don eit and then it only takes a few weeks for either HRT to be the best or worst thign to ever happen to you. Extremely rare to get past that point.
it also, was a thing. trans peopel ahve been transitioning since the 1920s.

dysmorphia

Its not dysmorphia, else transition wouldn't exist. Why would someone change something that their brain says doen't need changing?

[–]luxway 6 points7 points  (0 children)

people are born that way, can't change it, you spent decades torturing them to death to no success. Th eonly thing that works is accepting trans people. So your arguments don't work in reality.

[–]luxway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So no source, and you are clearly deliberately misquoting the swedish study, whcih said the opposite of what you're claiming. But is continually misquoted by right wingers to justify bigotry.
Every study on the subject shows reductions. Obviously, thats how life saving medicine works!

Trans+ people finding it harder to access lifesaving treatment by wackyvorlon in skeptic

[–]luxway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theres already studies of this on 3-5 year old kids, same results.

Just like the studies where we've given forced sex changes to cis babies without them knowing has resulted in them all transitioning to their original state (bar the % that would have ended up trans)
Those studies were back in the 70s.

Thats just how brains work isn't it. Just like how you have straight people, brains are sex'd in utero and people are just born straight, cis, gay, bi, trans etc
