“There are children, right now, who will never be able to experience orgasms as adults because their puberty was blocked when they were very young. Many of them will be sterile, as well. There is no way they could have consented to these losses at the age of eight, nine, ten, or eleven. And far more won't discover until years later how these brutal interventions predisposed them to the disease that typically affect those much older, such as diabetes, heart disease, liver disease, osteoporosis, and reproductive system atrophy.

In reality of course an 'affirmation only' approach denies the person any thoughtful enquiry, which could be extremely helpful. After all, the phrase goes, 'a problem shared is a problem solved', and not merely a solution shared...'. The post op regretters were universally of the opinion that if they had been able to access an exploratory space in the first place, then they would not have pursued the irreversible physical steps, which they later came to regret.”

“Many families have been emotionally blackmailed and told that they will lose their kids to suicide if they don’t agree to participate in the affirmation model. This threat is an unsubstantiated claim. When parents tap into the experiences of detransitioners, they learn that mental health often crumbles after transition. If it doesn’t work out so well on the other side, then what? It is a no-win situation for parents.”
