Hilarious that you're spouting this while also praising the sham Cass Report that wasn't peer reviewed.

I'm afraid you have been misinformed.

The Cass Report is not peer reviewed. Your disdain for facts doesn't change the facts.

So, I think you're relying on the technicality here that the final report itself wasn't peer reviewed, but was a synthesis of seven systematic reviews which were peer reviewed. I'm happy to acknowledge that, but your use of it as a "gotcha" is really rather dishonest.

Lmfao, it's not a gotcha, it's reality. She has zero expertise in the subject and cherry picked bullshit based on her gut vibes. The Cass Report has repeatedly been debunked.

Cass was one of, if not the tope paediatrician in the entire country. She was absolutely world class. The idea that she lacked expertise in evidence-based treatment for mentally ill children is just ridiculous.

And you're still relying on the dishonest framing of the "Cass report" when what Cass actually lead was The Independent Review of Gender Identity Services for Children and Young People. The final report was just a synthesis of seven systemativ reviews. Here's links to them:

Actual experts debunked this repeatedly. Clinging to the notion it doesn't need to be peer reviewed because she cherry picked from other peer reviews is nonsense. bmcmedresmethodol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

Interestingly there's only six systematic reviews listed on the journal's website. I wonder where the seventh is? web.archive.org/web/20240410...
