You are 100% correct in all You "said," Sir Fox. (Although the MAGA crowd would disagree.) I never saw the Walsh video, so that was news about trans people having high rates of suicide. Just stands to reason, tho. AFAIK, a (probably large) percentage of these kids have co-morbidities.

In Sweden they studied the science on this stuff. Like the errant notion that trans kids have a higher rate of suicide. They found the existing science to be LOW or VERY LOW quality. The study that "proves" this about "You want a dead girl or a living trans son?" IIRC, it was only ONE study of 55 patients, and (if memory serves, and it may not) boys who had dysphoria from a very young age. One study. Small sample size. Not at *all,* representative of almost all the so-called trans youth today. Who are predominantly girls.

That's why Sweden decided that the ONLY "gender affirming care" that was allowed going forward was in controlled scientific studies. IOW, shut it down.

I'm sure You know most or all-a this, Chris. But some others may end up reading this that would be majorly surprised. I know I was.
