The way the mainstream is approaching gender-affirming care isn't normal.
In a normal process, questions about a treatment lead to further research, and if the evidence bears out the idea that something is amiss, then the treatment approach is adjusted.
With gender-affirming care, we're skipping the evidence step and acting as if the act of raising questions alone creates a problem for a treatment with decades of evidence behind it. #trans #journalism #science
