Studies to Watch Out For

  • Dhejne C et al. 11
    • Commonly cited by transphobes to indicate sexual reassignment surgery HARMS trans people, increases risk of suicide.
    • BAD DATA. Control group for post-transition trans individuals was CISGENDER people - post-SRS trans participants weren’t compared to pre-SRS trans participants, they were compared to cis participants. Methodology DOES NOT PROVE the intended point.
  • Littman 18
    • Commonly cited by transphobes to indicate transness spreads socially, that exposure to trans material might encourage youth to be trans. “Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria” (ROGD).
    • BAD DATA. This study polled PARENTS, not the actual children, and those polls were taken online, and those sites were biased by nature - ‘4thwavenow, transgendertrend, youthtranscriticalprofessionals’.
    • Horrendously, pathetically inept data collection. Anyone who cites this should be laughed at.
  • Leinung et al. 18 sometimes cited as this article
    • Bad data: the study claims that hormonal therapy does not help reduce T levels to that pf a cis woman’s; however, the study uses the testosterone blocker known as spiro which prevents the body from acting on the testosterone rather then remove it from the blood, making the data useless
