The End of the Desistance Myth

The Huffington Post/By Brynn Tannehill   01/01/2016

"Over the past few years, an endless parade of "concerned" people (trolls) have trotted out the same statistic over and over again: 84 percent of transgender kids stop being transgender on their own. They have used this to justify everything from reparative therapy, to denying medical care to transgender teens, to suggesting that reparative therapy on adults will work."

Brynn, you're my heroine and my role model. I sleep better at night knowing you're batting for our team.
Have you read my short story The Eve of Triumph?
