Did @thecassreview - the review of NHS gender identity services for under-18s in England - throw out 98% of the available research? That claim was spreading online before the report was even published. It is “completely incorrect” says @Hilary_Cass A More or Less thread.🧵1/8
Children & young people expressing a trans identity have disproportionate rates of mental health issues, abuse and trauma. Until our children’s charities understand this, they will fail in the safeguarding obligations that are central to their mission. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/04/2…
The @BayswaterSG statement on the Cass report can now be viewed on our website. bayswatersupport.org.uk/statement-fina…
Parents have been raising the alarm about the treatment model for many years and have not just been ignored but maligned for advocating an approach that has now been substantiated by the Cass Review (link in thread to false accusations from the then head of the Tavistock Trust).

We welcome @thecassreview final report, which represents a sea change in the treatment of trans-identified children & young people. A sense of relief is combined with sadness that the change in direction in NHS services has come too late for some of our children. Statement:
We have written to @RCPCHPresident outlining our concerns that the RCPCH response to the @educationgovuk schools guidance consultation ignores @thecassreview interim report, and thus undermines safeguarding for these children. x.com/bayswatersg/st…

Remember: you don't need to respond to all 38 questions in the Scottish government conversion practices consultation. Our tips for responding are a roughly 5 minute read (see linked tweet). And even just answering the first 4 consultation questions would be very worthwhile.

1./ A long thread 🧵 132+ countries have policies or laws relating to sex education and many refer to UNESCO for guidance. HOW EXACTLY did gender identity ideology get into the 2018 update of UNESCO’s international sex education guidance? unfpa.org/sites/default/…
The sooner there is public scrutiny of @Genderintell, the quicker the alleged “real trans child” who is freed by queer theory will be seen for what this idea is — a dangerous illusion. thecritic.co.uk/the-making-of-…
As parents of gender-distressed children, it is troubling to see @The_Globe apparently normalising the harmful practice of breast binding in their promotional imagery for "I, Joan", a new play in which Joan of Arc is re-imagined as non-female. 1/2
Our new play I, Joan shows Joan as a legendary leader who uses the pronouns ‘they/them’. We are not the first to present Joan in this way, and we will not be the last. We can't wait to share this production with everyone and discover this cultural icon. bit.ly/GlobeIdentityI…

Schools are being criticised for failing to incorporate gender identity in the curriculum despite a lack of clarity about what is expected from them. A statement from Bayswater Support Group is included in this article: telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/06/1… 🧵1/9

@NEUnion and @MaryBoustedNEU, please can you read this essay before continuing to advocate for the social transitioning of children? We worry very much about the long-term impact of this policy.
A clinical psychologist writing for @Transgendertrd warns that early-childhood social transition can cause problems when the child starts puberty: it's a short-term strategy with long-term consequences. transgendertrend.com/childhood-soci…
@cwknews In November, when my youngest daughter fell apart in complete emotional meltdown & turmoil of ROGD indoctrination, TT was a vital anchor for me to catch hold of as I got swept away in the tsunami. I also must mention @genspect, @BayswaterSG, @ebswa. I can’t thankyou all enough🌟
@catvaxlax @NotthatSuzanne I’d highly recommend the Bayswater support group. They were amazing with us bayswatersupport.org.uk
@RobertP14668610 Have you heard of the Bayswater group @BayswaterSG? Worth looking at for parental support for what you are going through if you are UK based. I'm sorry this is happening.. I hope your children will grow out of it like most do x
La transition sociale est une intervention psychosociale de grande envergure qui comporte un risque accru de conversion de l'identité de genre et doit donc être abordée avec prudence et entreprise avec les conseils de cliniciens en santé mentale
Social transition is a far-reaching psychosocial intervention that carries a heightened risk of gender identity conversion & should therefore be approached cautiously, & undertaken with guidance from mental health clinicians, & with regard to the safeguarding dimension.
@eanderh @healthtalkorg @widerlenspod @Dr_Stepper @magmikulak @sfmartin Absolutely! Thanks @eanderh. I will contact their funders on their website. I literally politely sent them the Cambridge Study with recent detrans data and directed them to Sweden decisions link on @BayswaterSG. Plus parent voices on @genspect. We need to get this right.
@BayswaterSG In case you hadn’t seen this. It’s a very powerful testimony from a detransitioner.
The risks outweigh the benefits at present
Today Sweden's National Board for Health & Welfare calls for "restraint" in the use of hormones by under 18s suffering gender dysphoria. "the risks of blockers & cross-sex hormones for under 18s currently outweigh the possible benefits for this group". socialstyrelsen.se/om-socialstyre…
@BayswaterSG I believe she has late this afternoon, thank you
Good thread. But we have to wonder why the GR Unit is only now meeting with groups advocating for women and children. If @scotgov are on track to publish the bill on Feb 24th, it will already have been lodged. They should have met with these groups at the bill-writing stage.
We're grateful to the Scottish GRUnit for meeting us recently to discuss our concerns over its proposals to reform the gender recognition process, notably lowering eligibility to 16yr olds, the removal of medical diagnosis and reduction in wait time to 3 mths. @ShonaRobison
