https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/trumps-anti-trans-report-authors>Hate group talking heads, dark money beneficiaries, and career anti-trans activists have been revealed as authors behind a screed against trans health care, disguised as a Health & Human Services review.>Absent among the authors: Any actual transgender people, medical professionals with notable experience treating trans people, or any academics who have conducted principal research on patients with gender dysphoria.>This is unsurprising given the report was created for the explicit purpose of manufacturing the appearance of scientific rigor in support of transphobic legislation. It was commissioned via a January executive order calling life-saving gender-affirming care “chemical and surgical mutilation” and a “stain on our Nation’s history” that “must end.”>In other words, the 400+ page report was never meant to be a sincere academic endeavor. It is propaganda dressed up as science and, as per the order, its conclusion was pre-determined: “It is the policy of the United States that it will not fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called ‘transition’ of a child from one sex to another,” the order reads. (There are not actually any federal laws banning gender-affirming care.)>The original report, released in May, immediately came under fire for its shoddy methodology and dubious sourcing. At first, it did not even disclose its authors.
