Gender again. Sorry!

[multitool]

the retrofitting of LGBTQ+ ideology into a time period when it didn't exist doesn't seem to work terribly well.

Ah yes, gays didn't exist in the 1930s, and there is no mention of the hijra in 3000 year old Hindu texts.

Being gay is now an "ideology" among the transphobes.

Studies have said that risks from puberty blockers are 'minimal' and any long term effects cannot be measured just now until those on them grow older. So it's likely to be several decades before anyone knows for certain about the effects, good or otherwise.

This study found that there are issues with osteoperosis

Puberty represents a window of opportunity to build a strong skeleton. In TGD youth, the particular hormonal milieu and the altered timing of puberty can have a negative impact on bone growth and mineralization. To date, available literature data suggest to monitor BMD in order to protect bone health in all TGD adolescents undergoing puberty suppression for several years. In particular, trans girls present with BMD Z-scores below zero already at the start of gender transition and have a higher risk for impaired bone mass accrual. A calcium-rich diet, physical activity,, and weight-bearing exercise are encouraged for all TGD adolescents, and particular attention should be paid to those adolescents who have other risk factors for bone fragility or an unhealthy lifestyle.

Another study here presents a similar view that hormone blockers reduce bone density:-

You are correct however that both studies suggest that further study is needed on long term risks. However this doesn't mean that short term studies suggest that there isn't a potential problem.

And of course all of this completely bypasses the issue that we are trying to alter bodies because of a person's mental state rather than trying to help people accept their own body and who they are.

Oh dear. You don't seem to be able to differentiate between simple homosexuality and the consonant bucket of nonsense that is LGBTQIA+.

It's your terminology I'm quoting.

What is gay ideology? What is lesbian ideology? What is bisexual ideology?

I'm having an absolute f*cker of a morning but reading that has cheered me up no end. Chapeau, sir.

I'm not sure they have one. LGBQTIA+ does though, as rather than reasonably demonstrable gender based sexual orientations we have the belief in a pantheon of different clashing states with a rainbow of labels that changes depending on the mood of the person and conflates sexual preference with genetic problems and gender dysphoria.

Ideology steps in when people talk about being "assigned a gender at birth" and other non-scientific quackery.

That's just waffle.

If you want to talk about gender identity then talk about it. Don't lump everything else in with it.

You don't seem to know what it means. You talked about "LGBTQ ideology".

So what is gay ideology? Lesbian ideology?

Or do you think that gay and trans is the same ideologically driven thing?

Or would you like to rephrase?

She was messaged that :-

She responded by retweeting a detailed response by Malcom Clark:-
https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1767928717538644460?s=20

Now fair enough, you may well point out that Clark's position is anti-trans. But his post does appear to be well researched and the retrofitting of LGBTQ+ ideology into a time period when it didn't exist doesn't seem to work terribly well.

Let's ask the Jews then.

What - one specific Jew who hasn't bothered to do any research of learn what the centre was for that was burned down? DId you read the thread by Malcolm Fox. I find his research more compelling.

Do you mean Malcolm Clark? Or is this some new evidence that dispels all the known history about the holocaust?
