TexasTiger 13,000 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Children will no longer routinely be prescribed puberty blockers at gender identity clinics, NHS England has confirmed. The decision comes after a review found there was "not enough evidence" they are safe or effective. Puberty blockers, which pause the physical changes of puberty, will now only be available as part of research. It comes weeks before an independent review into gender identity services in England is due to be published. https://www.bbc.com/news/health-68549091.amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The debate is actually very charged there, but those who scrutinizing such “care” are spread more broadly across the political spectrum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our LBGTQlfhwe coalition is strong and has the backing of the President of the U.S. and its government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, you'll never stop the political exploitation of such issues, at least in this country. Just look at some of the recent posts on this forum - "liberals want to hack off the genitalia of little boys" (paraphrased). It would be funny if you knew this sort of rhetoric wasn't serious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
