Trans people were not felt to be objective enough to judge the outcome of their own well-being. I mean, that's what's so preposterous. And it's a force we've been battling ever since. So now we have suddenly in the last 10 years, universities, institutions putting money towards this, and guess what happens? The same phenomena.

An outsider who, for whatever personal or political or religious or whatever their trans skepticality is about, you know, they want to shut it all down. Can I ask a question?

I know.

I know.

Okay. Well, the evidence is there. And it isn't her level of evidence. You know, she dismissed what she didn't like, and this is just what they did back in, you know, in the original Hopkins stuff. All of the arguments, they're all the same. I mean, just to show you her, you know, how does she come up with the, you know, describing the onset due to things like pornography?

How does she speculate that as a responsible pediatrician? How does she use an endpoint like getting a job in a world that is discriminatory? How do you measure get out of the house and call that the kind of scientific endpoint that we should be looking at? What about self-reporting? This is what she won't listen to.

Azeem, I wish you could have been in my clinic last week. Two individuals who came about a year after their surgery, these girls were, when I first met them, they couldn't even look me in the eye. They could barely lift their head. They were barely alive. Their parents had deep circles under their eyes. They were doing poorly in school. They were, you know, it's all the cliche.

I mean, luckily they hadn't taken their lives because they had supportive parents and they had access to treatment. But they went through surgery and these girls are different. They are alive. And the personality that comes up, that is something that Dr. Cass has never seen.

That is something that seeing once, she would change her mind. Her skepticism would melt. And that is what the AAP, the APA, and the AMA all know.

Those are two separate things, but let's just say this is how medicine has always been conducted, is that you first treat the patient based on a hypothesis and your breadth of knowledge and what available science there is there. This is how innovation comes in any field. And then you can look back and record evidence of what you found.

This is why it's so clear in the minds of so many is that there is a vast amount of experience and a vast amount of deep understanding of this population.
