Not necessarily. The 95% is a general reference. I think it has a +/- of 1.2%.
So at 4%, AB blood type falls in the range.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
I have looked honestly at myself and I have no disorders but you do you. Meanwhile, gender dysphoria only accounts for under 1 percent of disorders, thankfully. I won't repost the link.
Oh I have found the beauty in commonality and even mild boredom!

in statistics when a data point or value significantly deviates from the typical pattern or central tendency of a dataset it is considered statistically uncommon or rare, often identified as an outlier. There no dividing line between "normal" and "abnormal" Your numbers are meaningless, or put another way "90% of statistics are made up on the spot"
Apologists for GAC (such as yourself), often attempt to shift the burden of proof on to the critics. That's not how science works.
Extraordinary claims (like the ones GAC rely on), require extraordinary evidence.
So where's YOUR evidence that GAC improves the mental health outcomes of those people who suffer from GD?

You're the expert, it seems you are the expert on everything... especially at telling people they are wrong lol.

IT doesn't need apologists.
Actually when you make the claim that almost all kids identified as trans "outgrow" this by the time they reach adult hood you re making a claim and the burden of proof falls on you.
he principle of onus probandi, which comes from the Latin maxim Onus probandi incumbit ei qui dicit, non ei qui negat, meaning "The burden of proof lies on the one who declares, not on one who denies".
what extraordinary claims?
you asked for it.
DO I think for one second you will be honest enough to look at it? Nope, You will dismiss it out of hand
Mental Health Outcomes in Transgender and Nonbinary Youths Receiving Gender-Affirming Care Diana M. Tordoff, 2022
receipt of gender-affirming care, including puberty blockers and gender-affirming hormones, was associated with 60% lower odds of moderate or severe depression and 73% lower odds of suicidality
Gender-affirming Care for Transgender Patients Nita Bhatt 2022
Transgender patients experience disproportionate disparities in mental health, physical health, homelessness, and violence. These disparities are not inevitable, however. Gender-affirming care has consistently been shown to improve quality of life, improve health outcomes, and reduce rates of SI and SAs.

Abreu, Roberto L 2024 analysis revealed five themes regarding the impact that these antitransgender laws and bills have on TGD youth, including (a) depression and suicidal ideation/risk of suicide, (b) anxiety, (c) increased gender dysphoria, (d) decreased safety and increased stigma, and (e) lack of access to medical care.

and you are wrong...often
The reason why I like the idea is, it is logical and reasonable. But, obviously this depends on what meaning we give to the word "gender". If there is more than 2 genders, I think the word gender has no reasonable use or meaning.

there is no logical reason to limit it to just two.
I have thousands of years of evidence to back up my assertion. We haven't even tiptoed into the social contagion aspect of this situation yet, but ultimately the apologists have to answer the question: why do we see such a huge surge in GD and only in certain areas and mostly with adolescent girls...
So no, the apologists have to provide extraordinarily good evidence that the best way to help confused kids with GD in this social media rich world, is thru drugs and sometimes surgeries. THAT is an extraordinary claim. And I await your best studies...

As for the studies you linked to - do you understand the idea of meta-studies? We all have to rely on them, not a cherry picked handful.
we still await your definition and the defense thereof - bring it...

No, this is from medicine and science. If your idea were true we'd find a high amount of trans people among those who suffer from trauma, but we don't.
And science doesn't even know the exact root cause.
So what more obvious fallacies do you have?
Shadow Wolf
Certified People sTabber & Business Owner
That's absurd. If you were going by thousands of years you'd see people we'd call trans and you'd know there absolutely nothing new about trans care. But all you keep giving is the same debunked rubbish.

Then don't hold this stance.
Let the individual and health care providers guide and decide these things. That is the only appropriate response to healthcare, especially when it's other people.
