THE AUSTRALIAN GENDER-ZIP TRUE BELIEVERS ARE A DYING BREED
• The RACP (Royal Australian College of Physicians) strongly supports expert clinical care that is non-judgemental and welcoming for children and has advised against a review of the Affirmative Model of Gender Care.
• The British RCPCH (Royal College of Paediatrics & Child Health – the Australian equivalent College is housed within the RACP) acknowledges the need for a cautious & evidence-based approach to medical interventions in children
• The Australian Medical Association (AMA) & its journal support gender-affirming care for children.
• The BMJ (British Medical Journal) advocates for a cautious and evidence-based approach to gender transition in children and young people
• Australian Faculty of Public Health Medicine generally supports the affirmative model of gender care.
• The United Kingdom's public health stance on gender transition in children has become more cautious, particularly regarding puberty blockers.
• Medicare in Australia covers gender affirmation surgeries that are deemed medically necessary including ‘top’ and ‘bottom’ surgeries for children
• Previously the NHS offered a more "affirmative" approach but now has emphasis on mental health support and delaying medical interventions.
• Royal Australian College of General Practitioners: (RACGP) strongly supports
the affirmative model of gender care.
• The British College of General Practitioners (RCP) and the NHS have dramatically revised their approaches to gender transition in children.
• Australia’s gender clinics continue affirmative model of ‘gender care’
• Finland, France, Norway, Sweden, the UK and 21 States in the US prohibit it.
It makes me angry that parents expect the state to fund in particular screening for ADHD, ASD. Three of my children were diagnosed with ADHD in the childhood. It was all at our expense. We paid for all their education too and any help they received with the learning problems that they experienced. I never expected the state to fund anything. Parents are responsible for their children not the state.
The Transitioning of children seems to swing between the mutilation path and the therapy path. It would seem to make better sense to let the children grow up normally and then decide with all the facts the path they wish to take.
Understood, although if the state has gender services operating like a vacuum cleaner for troubled children, you'd think they should take precautions such as screening.
And you better start swimmin'
or you'll sink like a stone
for the times they are a-changin’

The tide is turning.
The remaining conflict is the ACA provision which requires insurers to cover gender treatments.
Once that is gone it’s open season to go after doctors, and it won’t be pretty.
Bondi’s language is acute and accurate.

You would be forgiven for thinking that.
. . . . and we, the taxpayer, are apparently paying for the mutilations, seems we are somehow collatborating in it!
Not sure how we get around that
