9.2.4 More recent international guidelines…

 Since the publication of the York reviews, several new European guidelines have been issued in final or draft form, including those from the German AWMF, the French Society of Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology, the Polish Sexological Association, theEuropean Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE), and the forthcoming final version of the French National Authority for Health (HAS) guidelines.43 These reviews have been developed amid growing international awareness of the weaknesses of WPATH’s SOC-8 and the outdated nature of the Endocrine Society’s guidelines reflecting the need to have defensible, localized, up-to-date guidelines that set the standards of care for youth with GD.

Unfortunately, these recently-published (or as yet to be finalized) guidelines suffer fromthe same or similar methodological weaknesses that have rendered the WPATH and theEndocrine Society’s guidelines not trustworthy and not recommended forimplementation. All suffer from non-evidence-based approaches to guidelinedevelopment and exhibit one or more of the following problems: (1) guidelinedevelopment groups are composed of individuals with unmanaged conflicts of interestrelating to the provision of pediatric gender transition services; (2) the guideline takes ana priori WPATH-aligned position that medicalized pathway of hormones (and surgery) isthe recommended treatment approach;44 (3) the recommendations are not based onrigorously-conducted systematic reviews of evidence;45 (4) individual studies that drivetreatment recommendations are not appraised for quality, and their conclusions areaccepted at face value; (5) the recommendations are not graded for strength, resultingin ambiguity in clinical decision-making.

 9.4 Conclusion

 The current landscape of CPGs for treating youth with GD underscores significantvariability in methodological rigor and trustworthiness. A rigorous guideline appraisaldemonstrates that only a select few guidelines, notably those from Finland and Sweden,meet high standards for evidence-based clinical decision-making. These Scandinavianguidelines emphasize cautious approaches grounded firmly in systematic evidencereviews, advocating psychotherapy and psychosocial interventions as first-linetreatments, and restricting medical interventions to carefully monitored research settingsor exceptional circumstances.

 As shown in Chapter 9, the guidelines issued by the World Professional Association forTransgender Health (WPATH) have been rated among the lowest in quality and have not been recommended for implementation by systematic reviews (SRs) of guidelines.Despite their lack of trustworthiness, for more than a decade WPATH guidelines have served as the foundation of the healthcare infrastructure for gender dysphoric (GD)youth in the United States. cont page 159

Unlike most professional medical associations, WPATH does not require its members to be medical professionals. Full professional membership with voting privileges is alsoavailable to professionals in such fields as law, family studies, anthropology, and otherareas. Reflecting the diverse aims of its broad membership, WPATH treatment guidelines are designed to serve multiple purposes, ranging from clinical care to political advocacy.

WPATH is a dangerous organization at best….
 
 

Worse than the World Health Organization (WHO)....TRUMP dropped WHO, and rightfully so.

while leaving the proverbial door open, their intentions seem to be to exhaust all common sense steps prior to any medical procedures…whereas the US under WPATH is drugs and scalpels…

Sweden is on the leading edge of the return to sanity. But they were just as bad as the rest until recently.

I expect you'll throw it all away in a matter of days, high-profiling like a ***-rich delta darky.

This was the response of Colorado being bitch slapped by Supreme Court.

Following a March 31, 2026, U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down Colorado's 2019 ban on "conversion therapy" for minors, Colorado lawmakers are advancing legislation designed to allow lawsuits against practitioners of these methods.

 The New York TimesThe New York Times +1Supreme Court Ruling: The Supreme Court ruled 8-1 in Chiles v. Salazar that Colorado's ban on conversion therapy, which aimed to change a minor's sexual orientation or gender identity, violated the free speech rights of licensed Christian therapists.

New Legal Actions: In response, Colorado House Democrats moved forward with HB26-1322 (as of early April 2026), which would allow survivors of conversion therapy to sue licensed mental health professionals at any time, removing the current two-year statute of limitations.

Legislation Status: The bill passed the Colorado House on a 40-23 vote, with supporters stating it protects youth from harmful, discredited practices, while opponents labeled it a "slap in the face" to the Supreme Court ruling.

The Conflict: The case centered on Kaley Chiles, a Christian counselor, who argued the 2019 law prevented her from providing faith-based counseling to clients seeking to align their behaviors with their biological sex. The state argued that such counseling is a harmful, medically discredited practice that falls under professional regulation.

So the reach around is, you can do it, but at your own risk…the good news is that it encompasses all parties involved…if’n I’m reading it right…

3 step democ rat process to "discredit" science:

Step 1: Declare the science "discredited."

Step 2: Just kidding. There's only the one step. 

Step 3: See step two.
