How anyone can possibly think the Endocrine Society is doing anything other than committing malpractice and medical fraud is beyond me. So grateful for your courage and dedication. I have restacked.

Great news! Thank you for all your hard work and persistence. And in the NYT yesterday: "In the United States, a coalition of critics of youth gender medicine from both the right and the left have argued for banning the treatments", with "the left" linking to LGBCC's website! That feels very big.

“Clinician perspectives on non-binary youth”? Give me a break. Kids who say they’re “non-binary” probably do need professional help, but it would be to understand what’s gone wrong with their lives that they’ve embraced an imaginary identity.

If a doctor somewhere is giving puberty blockers to a "Eunuch Individual," then that must mean that this doctor has decided that a _child_ who identifies as a eunuch should be validated in this belief and medically altered to fit the description. Who else has puberty to be blocked but a child?

Making children into eunuchs mostly went out in the dark ages, but it looks like it's back... or they're back. This is a sick thing to do to children, who have no capacity to consent to this, and the person who did it shouldn't be giving a powerpoint presentation about it, he should be in jail.

What a brave and utterly RIGHT thing to do. Too bad this wasn’t done at the beginning by the people advocating these policies.

Are there going to be any presentations that actually discuss gender medicine without framing it a positive way?

Dang, it sounds like the troons have taken over the Endo Society. Something is definitely rotten in San Fran.

Do you know if the “Impact of GnRH Agonist Therapy on Bone Density in a Eunuch Individual” presentation is going to actually highlight the harms of puberty blockers on bone density or is it going to downplay the harms and present puberty blockers as a good thing?

Just letting folks know that someone on Substack is trying impersonate PITT (Parents with Inconvenient Truths about Trans). He has deceptively appropriated the real PITT’s moniker to spread pro-trans propaganda. Isn’t there some rule against this? I have no idea what Substacks terms are in this regard. But it seems to me such a practice should be prohibited. It’s false and misleading. I won’t post a link to his dashboard, but will post the actual, real PITT’s link:

@pittparents

https://substack.com/@pittparents

That’s the authentic account. I have sent them a note alerting them to this imposter’s activities.
