At the request of the English National Health Service, the senior pediatrician Hilary Cass has completed the most thorough consideration yet of this field, and her report calmly and carefully demolishes many common activist tropes. Puberty blockers do have side effects, Cass found. The evidence base for widely used treatments is âshaky.â Their safety and effectiveness are not settled science.
âŠ
We also donât have strong evidence that social transitioning, such as changing names or pronouns, affects adolescentsâ mental-health outcomes (either positively or negatively). We donât have strong evidence that puberty blockers are merely a pause button, or that their benefits outweigh their downsides, or that they are lifesaving care in the sense that they prevent suicides.
âŠ
We donât know why the number of children turning up at gender clinics rose so dramatically during the 2010s, or why the demographics of those children changed from a majority of biological males to a majority of biological females.
âŠ
Medicalized gender treatments for minors became wrapped up with a push for wider social acceptance for transgender people, something that was presented as the ânext frontier in civil rights,â as Time magazine once described it. Any questions about such care were therefore read as stemming from transphobic hostility, full stop.

I think the issue is more related to his takeover of Twitter and the massive purge of leftist ideologues from one of the worldâs largest social media company. Iâm almost certain this has nothing to do with cars.
This is a massive loss of power and influence for these sorts of people. Now they are showing how much they are seething by playing all these games, like talking shit about Tesla lol.
FYI, I donât even like Tesla. I think itâs a cyberpunk dystopia on wheels. I would never buy one nor recommend it to anybody. This is not about cars.
His wealth has roughly tripled from $35.5 billion in 2015, making him one of only 14 people worth more than $100 billion by Forbesâ reckoning. Excluding his fortune leaves a sizable hole in the Bloomberg index.
I understand what you are saying, and I donât want to invalidate your concerns. I can see now that this comic resonates with women more than it would with a man.
I think @Kusimulkku expressed what I wanted to say better than I did. Yeah, calling you a schmuck was unnecessary. Sorry if that offended you, no really.
I canât relate at all either from personal experience. My concern when reading something that I cannot relate to is that what Iâm reading could have been astroturfed. We are in a pseudonymous discussion forum where anyone can LARP as anything and make shit up. Itâs not a stretch to say that this vulnerability could be used to further agendas through manipulation in an organized manner.
There are a few ways to verify what people are saying, that I know of. One is to use established studies, and another one is to use anecdotes. But if all I have is hearsay from some internet account, then I canât take it as truthful until I have something that can verify it. It doesnât mean I will discard what people say, or not take them seriously, but I will exercise caution.
Anyway, upon further reflection on what people have said, I am inclined to take the concerns that OP (and others here) express more seriously. Itâs wrong to say that these people can never exist, and I would not like to invalidate the fears that some women have for such people. I simply reacted based on my own anecdotal experience, but other people can be more unlucky than I, and may develop said fears.
Yeah, this comic could reflect the feelings of women who were unlucky enough to meet such outrageously bad people, or at least have the fear of meeting such a person.
But to say that this is the rule is, I feel, a stretch.
I have no idea what is going on. Is the article biased and not telling us something we should know about the reasoning behind these bills? Are these politicians taking payment from âbig-meatâ?
Learn to solve problems using programming. Go learn Python. Stick with the basics and have fun. If you start worrying about losing older versions of your code, learn Git. Grow from there.
Kubernetes? Microservices? Cloud platform? These are all distractions and a waste of your time.
y=log_a(x) <=> x=pow(a,y) where âaâ is unknown. Letâs say the values of the progress bars in the image are in ]0,b]. That puts the cheetah on about b/5. It is know that cheetahs run at a maximum speed of 75mph. This gives us b/5=log_a(75) <=> pow(a,b/5)=75 <=> a=pow(75,5/b) Therefore, we have the relationship x=pow(75,pow(5/b,y)).
For the speed of light, y=((bĂ3)/5). It is known that the speed of light is 671000000mph. That gives us x=pow(75,pow(5/b,(bĂ3)/5))=671000000mph <=> pow(75,pow(5/b,b))=514285405839088. For the airplane, y=((bĂ2)/5). The fastest airplane flied at about 2200mph. That gives us x=pow(75,pow(5/b,(bĂ2)/5))=2200mph <=> pow(75,pow(5/b,b))=227016123.
Itâs probably astroturfed by a few loud trannies (porn addicts) who havenât seen the sun for a few months. If you check out the âcode of conductâ of Lemmy and their criterias for delisting instances, you will understand why stuff like this survives and thrives. In an organic social media environment these people wouldâve been called out x1000 harder for being obnoxious, making no sense, or being degenerates.
If I had to pick a friend, Iâd pick the fat guy. He is probably more wholesome than the guy that destroyed his brain by watching too much porn/anime garbage.
This is referring to a few books that were banned from school libraries a while ago (not sure what they were doing there in the first place).
Anyway, one of the books that were banned showed males sucking each other off. Thatâs hardly something you would be eager to show a kid unless you are a groomer. A common theme between these books in general was that they were pornographic. The fact that there was, and still is an outrage from the LGBT community till this day because of the bans is telling.
Also, do make note of the people here comparing the bans to Nazi Germany. Yeah, not showing kids gay porn is like being a Nazi, apparently. Disgusting.
