Who? I got doxxed by a radfem can I call you a shitty person for it?

Also i swear none of you actually believe dysphoria exists. It's always the whims of adults with drugs 'experimenting' on unsuspecting, innocent children, as if they aren't already messed up in the head. You don't like the current method of treatment? Then. Provide. Concrete. Evidence. Against. It. Id fucking LOVE to live in a world where dysphoria could be treated without transition. It's not a fun experience, you will be discriminated against, there is nothing I wish more than for dysphoric kids to not suffer.

But that alternative treatment doesnt exist. So stay out of the way of the one we have which is proven to work until it does.

You can only blame transactivists for the lack of alternative treatments. After all, TRAs are the ones who keep suppresing any research that may go against the party line (1, 2, 3). They are the ones who are keen on label anything other than "affirmative treatement" as "conversion therapy" (4). And don't get me started on the sloppiness of pro-QT researchers... Like the people at the Tavistock who embarrased themselves before the High Court with their apparent lack of capability for keeping patient's data (5). By the way, when TRAs keep driving away any heath care proffessional who question the official narrative (6), is any wonder you're left with unscrupulous doctors who only care about profit and being able to perform human experimentation?

You could admit, at the very least, that a lack of alternatives for "transition" is exactly what QT wants.

I... Feel like I shouldn't have to explain social media presence has only been a big factor in peoples minds for no more than the past 5-6 years. You won't see me defending people stopping science from happening, but what about alllllll the time before that. You do understand that trans people have been studied in earnest for more than 30 years, right? Were tras shooting those studies down for the other 25?

You could admit, at the very least, that a lack of alternatives for "transition" is exactly what QT wants.

I mean, am i qt? Cause thats the exact opposite of what i want

Yes, I'm aware of that. I don't think the doctors from yesteyear put much effort in trying to find alternative methods. However, even today many trans people are fine with the "medical trasition" offered to them because it validates their identities. Not only that, transactivists aims to eliminate any kind of "gatekeeping". I can't say for certain there would more options available now for trans identified individuals if not were for transactivists, but they certainly aren't helping.

And it's hard for me to believe you when you say that you'd prefer children to be treated without a need for transition given your opinion on not given minors GnRH agonists and CSH. Before gender clinics started affirming the children's self-diagnostics, most of them used to desist in their cross-sex identification.
