Our sample was overwhelmingly female, and the male subsample was only 7 individuals. This made it difficult to explore sex differences. We are less confident our results apply to males than to females.

Our data were based on self-reports, which can be inaccurate. But for our study, we think that participants were the best sources of information about their histories, what was going on in their minds, and how they felt.

Although our results suggested that detransition/desistance was a great treatment for mental health problems, we cannot know what caused what.

Like all available studies on gender dysphoria, ours was imperfect. The main limitation was our unsystematic way of recruiting participants–posting advertisements on social media and asking people to share them. This could not guarantee a representative sample.

The most common reasons for deciding that they were not transgender–despite a long and serious transgender phase–were actual internal changes of mind rather than external pressure. These include participants’ “own thought processes,” “feelings that the causes for [their] gender…

Two-thirds of participants said they hadn’t been adequately informed about the risks of cross-sex hormones. 92% weren’t informed about the lack of long-term studies of natal females whose gender dysphoria began around or after puberty.

Participants believed that social influences, Tumblr, and YouTube transition videos were moderately influential to their transgender identification. 60% had belonged to a friendship group with at least one other member coming out transgender around the same time as them.

Few participants endorsed “being born in the wrong body” as a reason for their transgender identification. There was much more agreement with “interpreting the feelings of trauma or a mental health condition as gender dysphoria.”

@TomClonan Could you please clarify: if someone does not subscribe to gender identity ideology, do you consider them automatically to be 'far right'? (they think that gender identity should *not* take precedence over biological sex in matters of law, social policy, sports etc.)

Women are getting bloodied, losing podium positions, losing money, losing college places, being banned from competition, because of males in female sports.

The BBC thinks a rainbow laces promo, an ignorant activist and a slow-motion edit constitute appropriate coverage.

The use of the word "man" when they mean "woman" in this article makes the true context of what was done here near impossible to fathom.

What I think happened is they put a vulnerable woman in a hotel room with several men - who assaulted her.

This was elective, and I was supposed to be able to opt out at any time. Sure, I was gung-ho, but I was a deluded teen who didn't know anything and thought she knew everything. I knew myself as all trans kids do, right?

But in that moment, I had doubt. And yet I was silent.

You can watch as many videos as you want and read all of the written accounts about surgery, but it's not real until you're there and you're experiencing it. How could I truly know what I was getting myself into? How could they have expected me to know? To be "ready"?

@AlessandraAster Yes he definitely thinks women are expendable . When addressing the Scottish government over GRR he actively advised that no research should be done into patterns of offending by male TW. Why would anyone think research is bad. He was definitely a danger to women.

@WomenReadWomen Even before knowing that I always thought that surrogacy pregnancies were the utmost form of exploiting women. Surrogacy should be banned worldwide. Period.

@NoSecretLessons @leakylike @thetimes It should be pointed out in no uncertain terms, every time the subject arises, that social transition of kids is a form of profound psychological abuse of the child, and puts them at a dramatically higher risk of future self harm. Calls to ban it then aren't so unreasonable
