Academic Stopped From Researching ‘Sex-Change Regret’ Says Fear, . . .
Christian News Network ^ | 02/24/2019 | Christian News Network

An academic has challenged a decision by Bath Spa University to refuse him permission to research trans regret.

Psychotherapist James Caspian wanted to study people who had undergone “sex-change” operations only to later regret their decision and seek to reverse their transition.

His research proposal was rejected by the university for being “politically incorrect.” Speaking to The Sunday Telegraph, he said, “I was shocked, but immediately knew I was in the eye of a storm.”

Caspian believes that his case demonstrates that the fear and sensitivity surrounding trans issues is stifling public debate and preventing them from being “critically examined.”

You have no idea how bad it is. My daughter suffers from hyperandrogenism, which causes all sorts of issues including gender dysphoria. I can’t even get treatment for her condition; the doctors are pushing her to transition instead. It’s a horror show. Meanwhile, I have a kid that’s suicidal because her endocrine system is jacked up!

Universities of higher learning once encompassed teaching and discovery’s of universal knowledge. Now they are purveyors of leftist dogma subject to censorship of filtered pc propaganda.

Of course, they are stifling public debate. They engender fear for that purpose.

Their arguments can not withstand open debate.

The narrative is more important than the truth.

”Bath Spa University”

Sounds like a place Obama would have frequented.

science seeks the truth of natural law, and if science can be obstructed by the charge of being “politically incorrect” then science, truth and the discovery of natural law are dead ...

what’s going on now is what happened in the Soviet empire and is one of the big reasons the Soviets failed ... it’s our turn next ... the Chinese are going to beat our pants off as they are not self-fettered by such utter nonsense ...

When science agrees with liberal political correctness, they are pro-science. But when does it ever agree?

Your poor girl. Please keep searching for a better endrocrinologist. If she’s not already doing it she should be practicing skilled relaxation (SR), see this: http://askwaltstollmd.com/articles/relax.php

Also, some magnesium supplementation might be helpful.

Neither of these things can hurt her in any way.

Doctors are pressing her to transition? What an outrage!

A hard paper to write as the subjects are difficult to interview because they have an astronomically high suicide rate.
