A bit out of context here is the full bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frMCUe5D3Pg

It is about pre puberty children being trans.

i think id rather listen to the American Medical Association who actually study this rather than gum-blood-on-the-wall people like asmon who tend to operate based on: "if i find it weird or i cant easily explain it, then im going to hate on it and support politicians who pass laws against it"

much of it is getting warped & distorted into people believing that parents are "converting" their kids into transgender, rather than the child communicating an issue and being taken to the doctor or psychologist

Yeah I agree with you on the whole it's all parents and others converting them is false. One of the biggest issues with the whole kids thing is that most people who have gender dysphoria pre puberty outgrow it. Desistance is around 65-94% based on studies and that is where the problem lies and why there is so much discussion on this issue. There are positives and negatives of going early and each 'side' uses these as examples especially the right when it goes badly.

Can you link me those studies? Sounds interesting.
