Spiky...I know more about both Tavistock and Portman clinic than you ever will. As to the Karolinska Institut study I believe you're referring to, it DOES NOT come to the conclusions you've been told it does. I know this because I've not only read and studied the whole thing, but I've spoken to the researchers themselves.

Again...you're not actually educating yourself, you're just drinking the Christian Nationalist and TERF Kool-Aid because it appeals to your existing bias, and (potentially) lazy thinking.
You start out with what could be wildly skewed opinions but then you go into vehement denial of objectively verifiable reality. OK, nothing new for the "trans" activists such as yourself; your creed is built atop the psychotic fad of postmodernism, for which the denial of objective reality is fundamental. When you deny the European reversals of "gender affirmation" you enter Flat Earth territory. You are saying rocks fall up and pigs fly. You ensure that nobody will take you seriously and, happily, you discredit the abhorrent position you seek to present here.
And abhorrent it is. "Gender affirmation" *does* mutilate children, *does* sterilize adolescents by removing their sex organs, and *does* treat impulsive and fad-driven decisions by people far too young to make them as somehow reflecting an inner nature that is only denied by prejudice. There is no such thing as "sex change," sex is an immutable characteristic determined at conception, at the earliest moment of pregnancy, and it is likely there will never be a medical procedure that legitimately changes sex.
You are unmoored, adrift at sea without oars, lost in a daze and haze, and you should shut the fuck up before some poor desperate fool takes you seriously.
Repeat: peer-reviewed medical statistics say that gender dysphoria appears in one in 30,000-110,000 births. Black's Medical Dictionary (2017) is right in the middle of this range; one in 30,000 boys, one in 100,000 girls; one in 65,000 for both sexes.
Not the one in 65 claimed by the "trans" activists.
So, small wonder, those wretched and vile activists say that dysphoria is not prerequisite to the joy of "trans," that it takes nothing more than self-identification. This is insane. It allows disturbed, shallow, and impressionable teens to use "trans" as a way to get attention or to escape their unhappy lives into a fantasy of specialness, with the bonus benefit of feeling important enough to be persecuted.
But, let's not forget, that about one in a thousand of the "trans" actually are dysphoric, an invisibly small sliver of the movement, and they are being dragged along by an ideology that very few of them want.
The same cannot be said for the "nonbinary," for which there is zero psychological basis whatsoever. There have been gender-indifferent people as long as there have been people but they didn't form a movement and didn't run around yelling at people about their magic pronouns or their magic names.

Jenn, you are not only a liar, you're stupid.

Because no sane people will.
“Everything I don’t like is right-wing”. Many of the parents of ROGD youth are left-wing and often lgbt themselves.
This isn’t the 1990’s.
Children today cannot remember a time before Obergefell. Virtually every American high school has a GSA club.
The trope of the gay kid being bullied by the closeted jock is from the past.
Why is 1 in 4 incoming freshman to U Wisconsin trans-identified?
Left handed-ness is 1 in 10, by comparison.
Assuming trans acceptance organically increased the numbers 10x, we’d be at 60 per 100,000. Not 25,000, lol.
Over diagnosis hurts everyone, including trans people themselves. Nobody is winning here.

One in 65,000. The rest are fakes.
