@JuiceACD @FadeVanity context: (1) this report was commissioned in the wake of a scandal around the uk nhs paediatric gender clinic ("gids") taking a purely-affirmative approach and suppressing dissent. the final report will be the basis on which this is reformed into a cross-disciplinary approach

@JuiceACD @FadeVanity the actual consensus is that, yes, there is evidence that the affirmative approach works, but no evidence that it's the best option by default. in fact, lack of consensus is the main theme on this issue. my source on this is https://cass.independent-review.uk/publications/interim-report/, points 4.15–4.22

@JuiceACD @FadeVanity (2) affirmation works, but gender ideology draws false conclusions – it being best to always affirm, redefine womanhood so it seemingly can't challenge affirmation, suppress ontological discussion about gender etc.. none of this is necessary for trans healthcare/rights/liberation
