In the upcoming Supreme Court case US v. Skrmetti, the state of Tennessee is submitting "expert" testimonies from four doctors who have previously been disregarded for bias, conspiratorial beliefs, and who deserve "very little weight"...

Paul Hruz, James Cantor, Michael Laidlaw, and Stephen B. Levine – have been beloved by anti-trans lawyers and activists since they emerged with alleged professional critiques of the state of gender affirming care and transgender medicine.

Hruz, for instance, has no history of treating transgender patients. He said in a 2017 deposition that he "intentionally [does] not treat transgender patients," and said yes to a lawyer's question that he has not treated any transgender patients for gender dysphoria.

Laidlaw has also been found to have minimal experience... When asked in a 2022 deposition whether he has "performed any primary research regarding gender dysphoria," he simply said "no."

Cantor has a similar record. In 2022, U.S. District Judge Liles C. Burke, a Trump appointee, found that he has "never provided care to a transgender minor under the age of sixteen," he has "never diagnosed a child or adolescent with gender dysphoria" or treated one for gender dysphoria, has "no personal experience monitoring patients receiving transitioning medications" nor does he have "personal knowledge of the assessments or treatment methodologies used at any Alabama gender clinic."

If I were the judge, I would not allow them to enter any opinions on the matter. Courtrooms are for discussing facts, not opinions.

Opinions are like buttholes.
Everyone has one and they usually stink.
They are also the primary source of feces.
