I’m fucking crying. Also bans healthcare for 18 year olds. They’re coming for adults too (I mean obviously).
A moms discussion forum, thread on the topic, first few replies:
Just to be clear, mumsnet is widely regarded as 4chan with a glass of prosecco. I would not just say “moms discussion forum” when priming people for what it is or just how reactionary the people there are.
They’ll probably be used for recruiting in one of these studies
I mean this completely unironically. This is the methodology flaw to be absolutely clear. Littman devised this social contagion theory, that gender dysphoria is socially inflicted. That peer influence is what makes your kid trans.
She then specifically sought out forums critical of transgender people. “4thwavenow”, “transgender trend”, and “youth transcritical professionals”. These websites opposed gender affirming care for youth and “trans ideology”
She claims she asked people on these sites to spread the survey beyond the sites but specifically sought out “parents who believed their children had ROGD”. At the time this was a term she had coined. This is still not a recognized term by anyone credible and definitely was not then
Shockingly horrid methodology flaws. Additionally leaked emails from these communities show failures to disclose conflicts of interest and arguably show littman and several other psychologists in these communities were working backwards, eg they had the idea that this was idea absolutely true and were looking for confirmation. It is possible from the start they were not interested in any possibility of finding data that did not support their hypothesis and their actions appear to support this belief, eg they were putting their thumb on the scale in their favor

Mumsnet is probably the largest base of terfs on the internet. It’s foundational to the terf movement.
