Wokeness being passed off as "science" yet again this time by a "physician-scientist."

What good science shows us is that when we accept transgender people, they thrive.

The article links to a NYT Opinion piece written by the same author. "Jack Turban is a research fellow at Yale School of Medicine, where he lectures on the treatment of transgender and gender-nonconforming youth."

Critics point to flawed studies that suggest that roughly 80 percent of prepubescent children ultimately change their minds about being transgender. Even if this were true, would it have been worth forcing Hannah to live as a boy, putting her at risk for depression and perhaps suicide? Though going back to a boy’s name and boys’ clothes would probably be hard, even a small risk of suicide is scarier.

At this point, data on the benefits of early social transition is scarce. But this year researchers at the University of Washington published a study based on 63 transgender youth who were allowed to socially transition. They found that their levels of anxiety and depression were just about indistinguishable from their non-transgender peers.
