“Such lack of investigation into a topic that impacts young women is unacceptable but unfortunately not surprising from the CBC of today. Some pieces of information that may be helpful to the two male hosts…. There is not a tween/teen girl that likes her body. We do not encourage girls with anorexia to stay the course. A mastectomy is a devastating operation resulting in no sensations in the chest. Loss of the ability to orgasm is why we fund world organizations to stop female genital mutilation. The possibility that society is reducing a person’s life expectancy is worthy of some research. And where is a single study that actually shows that young people are less suicidal a year after they transition? Where is the outrage that psychologists cannot (if they want to keep their jobs) treat these children for other psychological disorders first to see what is really the source of these feelings of dysphoria? Why did you not mention the overlap with autism? Where was the discussion about why it is no longer okay to be a female who doesn’t present hyper feminine? CBC loves to discuss victims but cannot seem to grasp that these young women, with onset of gender dysphoria during puberty, are perhaps the true victims of their generation. We can support older self-aware transitioners while protecting tweens/teens from doing irreversible damage to themselves. Shame. This is not journalism.”
