In the book that made Haidt famous, he noted the dramatic increase in identifying as liberal: a 2% change, and cited without irony, a +-3% error rate.

This is a masterclass in deceptive statistics, using one of the most common deceptive techniques: relative change across unequal groups. Note the legend on the top left, and that teenage girls in 2020 (post "sudden change") still have the *lowest rate* of all groups...

I've read that Jesse Singal is writing a book about gender-affirming care. It'll cause immense harm while filling up his pockets further. I've been planning for new visualization book, but I might need to write instead about how real people make choices based on existing science

“In the real 2024 United States of flaming protesters and Glocked-up voters, with a wannabe dictator running to be a 47th president [...], too many of our leading newsrooms are recording quotes and not asking questions about the actual collapse of democracy.”

Incredible display of zealot's corner
Jesse's goal is pretty explicitly the imposition of a regime of stringent medical gatekeeping for trans healthcare. He doesn't actually care what the data say about efficacy and he doesn't want you to know this has already been tried, with dystopian results for trans people

"I know all these trans people say they're happier and better off as a result of this care, but have we considered the possibility they're all liars?"

NYT's @nytdavidbrooks loves to write about concepts he doesn't understand. One of them is "epistemic humility". If he had any of that himself, he'd do the world a favor and would stop writing columns and books.
Like many others, I got into philosophy largely through the dazzling & endlessly provocative work of Daniel Dennett. RIP a hero. dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
Daniel Dennett was my intellectual idol and my friend for 15 years. He was one of the kindest, most generous, most beautiful people I've known. I'm too devastated to write anything else right now.

This is the most frustrating part of this "debate"/moral panic - if your claim is that huge numbers of people are detransitioning, you wouldn't be arguing over study quality and p-values. You would be pointing to the massive population of people found in every study & community.

Also fae/faer@ShapiroTattoo @fractionalgirl @assignedmedia @ErinInTheMorn @Esqueer_ @_oatc_ @BusinessWaffles @fallenigloos The more I've studied the Final Report, the Systematic Reviews and the surrounding ephemera, the more I've come to the conclusion that some fairly rushed changes were made to it in the last few months.
Oh right, this is why I sense it.
Why do I sense that the systematic review people are going to say this systematic review doesn't count.
Anti-trans activist and blogger Ben Ryan has lied about my interview with The Majority Report. I stated that the Cass review did not allow trans people to have a say in the ultimate production of the report. This is TRUE. Trans people were not allowed to serve on the team.
Yes. The weakness of the existing research is a reason for practitioners to proceed carefully and continue gathering data — which they are! Meanwhile, we have a nationwide legislative assault on trans rights at every level and these alleged "objective" journalists don't care.
It feels like a lot of critiques of trans care come down to "It's not perfect and experts keep refining the best treatment practices," which also describes ALL medical care, but since the people being treated aren't a deeply stigmatized social minority, no one freaks out about it
Yet more evidence that gender affirming care works. americanjournalofsurgery.com/article/S0002-…
A recent study from 2022, the largest of its kind in the prestigious journal pediatrics, focused on 300 trans youth over a 5 year period. Even 5 years later, 97.5% of youth still identified as trans or nonbinary. psychologytoday.com/us/blog/politi…
Ken Zucker is where the 80% number originally comes from. He was a conversion therapist who did his study on only 45 youth. Half of the youth did not even meet the diagnostic criteria. He practiced the following conversion therapy methods:
The two most common sources for these claims are Ken Zucker's research from 1995 and Thomas Steensma's research from 2011-2013. Both of these research studies have this same flaw of using DSM-IV criteria.
Like GIDs, Finnish gender services operated as a monopoly, with little scrutiny leading to "offensive and questionable practices". An account is given of a 13 year old Trans girl asked by male Drs to "explain what she thinks about her naked body when she looks in the mirror" 4/
This is by 'Spinner' for Kehraaja (Nightjar in Finnish) 19.3.2021 kehraaja.com/kuvaile-minull… "Describe to me how you masturbate?" - the position of trans youth in the treatment system is bleak" 2/
This is 100% correct, and a lot of the points commonly raised about gender affirming care are utterly routine issues in the rest of medicine. Off-label prescribing? First line meds for migraine/myasthenia are off-label. Limited, evolving data? That’s everything in rare diseases
As I mentioned before, Germany/Switzerland/Austria are getting ready to publish updated guidelines for the treatment of trans youth. And unsurprisingly, there has been political pushback. (1/17)
By that logic should we force cis people to take HRT just so they can have a frame of reference for what it’s like to be trans? The transphobia is loud.
it argues that a person on T wouldn't have "experience as an adult c*s-gender woman" and, as such, "may have no frame of reference to cause them to regret or [but] may have had a different outcome without medical intervention [and] not needed to take life-long hormones."
@ViridianLakes @AriDrennen It’s in Therapy First’s “clinical guidelines”. I’m currently writing a media criticism article about how they were allowed a WaPo op-Ed without having to explain any of this.
Am I doing this for myself? Because someone on Twitter told me to debunk in peer review and made a parallel that had more resonance than they knew? Because I dream of someday being in the @IfBooksPod show prep notes? Because I think I have something useful here? Whomst can say!
Remember that the alternative that anti-trans obsessives offer here is not a different treatment better supported by the evidence, it is quite literally "get over it"
Personally I think having an average of 7 appointments before getting hormones — and only 27% of patients getting them at all — is good evidence that kids were being assessed. Jesse "debunks" this by saying we don't have complete records and some were below the average.
What’s the eligibility age for prestige writing jobs where all you do all day is work out your personal grievances and insecurities via ignorant, lazy takes on the issues of the day? Because I’ve gotta be getting close
I defy anybody to read this and conclude anything other than @RottenInDenmark is a gigantic fraud on the subject of youth gender care jessesingal.substack.com/p/michael-hobb…
@jonathanchait @RottenInDenmark It's very obvious to everyone that Hobbes has zinged you several times on Twitter, so you're butthurt, so you'll buy anything that reaffirms your priors about him, even this transparently bad-faith bullshit from Signal. Your entire engagement on this issue has been embarrassing.
also the USTS trans survey is not a survey of just people who are rah-rah trans. It's literally just asking people currently identifying as trans. The fact that he thinks that's the same thing is REALLY telling for how he views trans identity.
Another Classic Jesse-ism is accusing me of being a fraud and a liar for having what amounts to a methodological disagreement. I think surveys of trans people are relevant to detransition rates because people will show regret for awhile before pursuing formal detransition!
It's important to note neither of these guidelines is published in English. Originally Cass research team had stated they would exclude non English language guidelines, this is repeated in the overarching criteria of the Cass Report (screenshot 1). However they made exceptions 3/
