I referred to it in my publication, Harming Children. TBF it included all anti-trans measures including social & legal oppression, not just puberty blockers.

Now however the government is introducing Section 28 for trans kids, it is doing pretty much everything these Republican states did.

It highlights how much people misunderstand how research works. It’s much more ruling out what doesn’t work than the eureka moment and coloured liquid in curly glass tubes that people are led to believe.

Yes, definitely. This idea of ultra concentration and specialisation is naive about the way that research is done and how we achieve good outcomes from it.

Also the incremental way within any project that 'excellent' research emerges, with waystations that may not be 'excellent' enabling publications that are.

For years, anti-trans activists have campaigned to stop children from receiving gender-affirming care because "there's just not enough evidence" that puberty blockers are safe (even though there is: www.thepinknews.com/2024/09/10/p...).

Thanks for cheering up those of us over 60!!!!

I don't know the criminal standard specifically but Linehan did say *in court* that he was motivated by the victim's status as a trans person. If a clear statement of explicit prejudice isn't enough then you need a new standard.
