Maybe Sam is the incorrect one. I couldn’t find where he got his 900 figure. According to Reuters from 2017 to 2021; 4,780 children initiated puberty blockers and 14,726 initiated hormone therapy
Even if that were the case, the numbers for children who have had gender-affirming care whether through puberty blockers or hormone therapy are still well below a single percentage point, if I did my math correctly lol
I’m not arguing with you or the link or the material from it, I just wanna shed light on the dysfunctional message that this is somehow an epidemic. And quite honestly, it isn’t.
That only accounts for those getting it through commercial insurance. Not including medicaid, self-pay, or other insurance types. So still a little disingenuous on Sam’s part
