The rationale for the proposed rule is "the lack of quality evidence regarding the effectiveness of such treatments for gender dysphoria and in order to provide guidance to the medical community and protect the health, safety, and welfare of Floridians".
"All children who have been treated for gender dysphoria in the past decade [by the UK Tavistock clinic] will have their medical records scrutinised in an effort to find out whether NHS services are harming vulnerable adolescents." 1/ THREAD

Data - or rather, lack of adequate data - is a recurring theme with youth gender clinics internationally. There are headline figures showing unexplained exponential growth in case numbers but often there is scant detail on patients, treatment patterns & outcomes including regret.
UK health secretary Sajid Javid, who reportedly believes that harm to children is being masked by ideological resistance to open debate, plans to change confidentiality provisions so that experts can check the treatment outcomes for about 9,000 ex-Tavistock patients.
Why would Australia's prime minister express concern about youth gender medicine? #AusPol #AusVotes2022 #Health #GenderClinics
Schools, social media & the wider culture increasingly send impressionable kids the message they can "choose" to be a boy or a girl, or something in between. This adult theory -- with its post-modern denial of biological reality -- used to be confined to the fringes of higher ed.
Gender non-conforming kids, who might otherwise grow up to be gay/bisexual, are now exposed to the idea that unease in their bodies, not fitting in with peers, may mean they are the opposite sex. Autistic kids may be especially vulnerable to this "black & white" thinking.

France's National Academy of Medicine goes public with concerns about the "epidemic-like" spread of youth gender dysphoria & calls for "great medical caution" in the use of hormonal & surgical treatments. @acadmed @SEGMtweets #GenderClinics 1/

The academy highlights side-effects of puberty blockers followed by cross-sex hormones -- "such as the impact on growth, bone weakening, risk of sterility, emotional & intellectual consequences & for girls, menopause-like symptoms".

The academy advises psychological support for youth struggling with gender & warns parents to monitor "the addictive role of excessive engagement with social media", which plays a "very significant part" in the international explosion of teenage gender dysphoria.
I am ready to talk about the #silencing of over 25,000 psychologists in Australia with regards to the safeguarding of children. We are threatened, harassed, coerced to provide only one #therapy to children or else! They tried to force me into this I said NO. Any journalists???
I am ready to talk to journalists, lawyers, bloggers and am now writing a book on this topic/issue. I am ashamed of my colleagues and the board who wilfully ignore the immature prefrontal cortex, the autistic brain, and their own ethics and guidelines #rogd #gender #transgender
I have not been able to speak openly about this until now as I have been continually #silenced, harassed, threatened, coerced by other #psychologists #therapists, my board, governing agencies and other professionals. It’s time to reveal what is happening to clinicians worldwide
"Overcoming the flesh: the transgender movement wants to legally abolish physical sex. Risks and side effects are kept silent" | Big-hit 1400-word report in Germany's influential centre-right newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine @faznet #GenderClinics 1/

"(The @FDP party & Greens) have presented drafts for a (gender) self-determination law that for long stretches seem as if they were written by the activists themselves. At age 14, everyone should be able to decide each year whether they are legally to be considered man or woman."
Germany is the latest country to launch a dissident LGB group in protest & alarm at what they see as the capture of establishment LGBT organisations by the radical project to topple biological sex & erect self-declared "gender identity" in its place.
