Keeping it as research seems it would greatly reduce its availability, and if it causes people to suffer or die, that's not something that can be taken back, unlike stopping hormone treatment or puberty blockers seems to be. That's the part that concerns me.

Well I can certainly recommend reading the interview then. One of the things mentioned is that she considers, after her research, this hormone treatment as having irreversible effects.

That's something I always see people dancing around, sometimes saying 'mostly' reversible or something... Being ('mostly') irreversible has an enormous ethical impact. She also mentions having taken into consideration the long term psychological effects but that the research on that just isn't strong enough to give a clear-cut advice

Keep their bases in exchange for throwing a few bombs on the Kurds, you say?

Well her position doesn't seem to be that she wants to eliminate it at all. She says the evidence is too weak for a general green light. She supports it being offered but as research:

There are young people who absolutely benefit from a medical pathway, and we need to make sure that those young people have access — under a research protocol, because we need to improve the research — but not assume that that’s the right pathway for everyone.

Also:

I think there is an appreciation that we are not about closing down health care for children. But there is fearfulness — about health care being shut down, and also about the report being weaponized to suggest that trans people don’t exist. And that’s really disappointing to me that that happens, because that’s absolutely not what we’re saying.

I always wondered whether those Gazan kids were happy with the current situation, but thanks to this thorough work by the War Child Alliance charity I know that at least some of them are not

Regardless, it's not yours, is it?

Correct, they're no one's. And now they are returned to the Earth
