Do these therapists get kickbacks for prescribing these drugs? Investigative journalists need to go down that rabbit hole... Because I suspect there's a financial incentive for how many people these gender therapists sign-up for prescriptions, surgery, etc...

Reminds me Scientology and the Operating Thetan levels...

it's a long read but there was a really good medium article looking into the pharmaceutical industry's gross part in this: https://medium.com/@sue.donym1984/inauthentic-selves-the-modern-lgbtq-movement-is-run-by-philanthropic-astroturf-and-based-on-junk-d08eb6aa1a4b

I don't know and while I can't say much because I don't want to dox myself, I will say I later found out that therapist was a member of several of the big TRA organizations, and she participates in all kinds of pro-trans events. While I don't know whether she was getting any financial kickbacks or anything, I have no doubt she wanted the clout of working with as many trans patients as possible.
