Truly unreal. The media should report responsibibly, of course, but the assumption that any decrease in referrals to a clinic is BAD (and that the corresponding massive uptick to gender clinics in recent years is GOOD) is astonishingly naive. It's great that people can access gender affirming care if needed. But somehow until very recently the overwhelming majority of people didn't change gender (it's still a majority, but numbers have slipped from 1 in 30000 to 1 in 30, according to some estimates), and still somehow managed to forge their way in the world. Why is it suddenly something that must be medicalized?
