>You're wasting your time. These people are stubborn as fuck
i am very cognizant of this and i almost always ignore them but colin wright and matt yglesias are talking about it and all the colin wright fans must've seen his reply in their timeline and flooded the thread

i am highly aware i sound retarded right now. for some reason i just feel an urge to reply to this one claim. he wrote so much wispy bullshit that would require a full essay to adequately respond to, but "these interventions have no demonstrated benefit" buried in there is an actual non-nebulous, concrete assertion to hone in on

even if perhaps i can't technically provably demonstrate the benefit (he/his fans will say the studies are bad or whatever) this claim is the crux the shitty house of cards is built on and i don't like it just being tacitly accepted

>high-quality
>in the cass review/NIH cass review sense, or by using the same standards applied for other medical interventions and treatments?
even one single small study is enough to refute his particular claim here, i think, if the study is strong enough. he is pretty much stating or implying no one has benefitted or can benefit from cross-sex hormones
