[Responding to a question about the stakes involved for transsexual detransitioners] “You’re talking about individuals who have been deeply harmed. They’ve lost body parts; their body has not been allowed to develop naturally. They have chronic pain. Their bodily frame is often abnormal because of growth irregularity, which is affected by cross-sex hormone therapy. One of our clients calls that ‘wrong-sex hormone therapy’. But equally important, the psychological and emotional impacts: Our clients have to cope with what was done to them for the rest of their lives. The proponents of so-called gender-affirming care—a horrible misnomer—so far have been very hesitant to engage in robust scientific discussion of the evidence, or really the lack of evidence.” – Josh Payne
