Anderson stellt 'Fast-Tracking' von GD-Teenagern in Frage
Erica Anderson, Expert (klinische Psychologie und Ex-WPATH-Vorstandsmitglied) für genderdysphorische Jugendliche in Kalifornien, kritisiert den „affirmation-only"-Trend, bei dem Teens allein aufgrund des Vorhandenseins von Genderdysphorie kurzerhand Pubertätsblocker und Hormone verschrieben werden und sagt im Telegraph
“To treat all the kids as though they’re trans, I think it’s just a terrible mistake,”
Die Teenager, die heute mit dem Gender-Thema kommen, hätten ganz überwiegend viele andere Probleme.
„There’s no reason to believe that treating gender dysphoria will cure depression, will resolve trauma, change someone from being on the autism spectrum to not being on the autism spectrum. And I think it’s mistaken to think that expediting care for gender issues will treat all the other issues.”
Zur Frage, warum vor allem Mädchen betroffen sind, sagt Anderson:
„Trans influencers on TikTok and YouTube became more powerful, telling girls feeling anxious about puberty that they are in the ‚wrong body‘, and extolling the virtues of breast binding and testosterone. And, says Anderson, girls are more susceptible to social influence. It’s a toxic collision.”
Der Telegraph schreibt zudem:
„Overdiagnosis of children raises fundamental issues that go far beyond identity and into the marrow of parenting rights, family, education, and health.”
