The reasons the general public are unaware of iatrogenic harms of "affirmative care" are explained by The Trifecta of Deceit. 1. Trans Journalists' Association Style and Coverage Guide, a newly updated website now soliciting donations--they suppress reporting on detransitioners, trans widows, crimes of men claiming female identity as well as the multifaceted family destabilization their ideology causes. 2. "Dutch Protocols" based on the low quality study of DeVries, Steensma, Cohen-Kettenis, 2014, known as The Dutch Study. 70 subjects dwindled to 55, 2 died, 20 declined to finish the exit survey, so final tally 33 subjects. Despite 4 attempts in UK, US to replicate, results were so dismal these were abandoned. 3. Drs. Mark/Marci Bowers and Laura Edwards-Leeper are exemplary practitioners who blame the patients when they regret and detransition, when the risks turn into cancer and kidney failure. Hubris personified.

The GWL episode with DeVries and Steensma was really something for how it highlighted the low quality of the study from which the "gold standard" Dutch Protocol was born (switching the assessment measurement at the end alone), and the Trans Journalists' Style and Coverage Guide really helps explain how all of this stays mostly unknown, even to our Supreme Court Justices as evidenced in just the small amount of the responses to the oral testimonies I was able to listen to today.

The entire GWL Pioneers Series is terrific. Together the entire series is like a graduate seminar.
