Psychiatrist Jack Turban recently had his paper claiming that anything short of affirming a child& #39;s gender identity is harmful thoroughly debunked. Now he& #39;s published this @sciam article claiming research into the causes of gender identity is also harmful. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-disturbing-history-of-research-into-transgender-identity/">https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/t...
Turban doesn& #39;t want psychiatrists to be able to explore the causes of dysphoria to help alleviate it. He asserts any treatment that doesn& #39;t fully accept the child& #39;s identity is "conversion therapy." This is dangerous rhetoric that will keep children from getting proper care.
Here& #39;s the link to the paper debunking Turban& #39;s research on this topic. Please give it a read. It is very important work. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-020-01844-2">https://link.springer.com/article/1...
