Here are some highlights:
I can't even imagine being trans in the UK and seeing this come out.
You know, the thing about natural laws and natural behavior is they don't need somebody to enforce them.

Re: Fuck the Cass Report
I downloaded the report. Holy crap its well over 200+ pages long.
I will try to give it a read.
The last part in your picture is wrong. Children play with toys and it's only social gender structures that pretty much force them to play with the gender appropriate toys. As in girls play with Barbie and boys play with GI Joe. But nevermind that boys will play with Barbies or girls will play with GI Joe until they are told no. Also children tend to mimic what the adults do too. With that said I will want see the reasoning in that report about hormones and being biological, because that sounds like pure bullshit.

Re: Fuck the Cass Report
I haven't read it yet but every summary I've seen boiled down to "the current medical consensus is unfounded because it was based on listening to patients about a hugely subjective experience". I'd hate to see her opinion on pain management.

"Are you trans?"
"Yes."
"Sorry, too biased, I need to write a report on your existence and your existence may harm my results I want."

Science Fiction is a genre where anything can happen. Just make sure what happens is enjoyable for yourself and your audience.
Re: Fuck the Cass Report
Yeah to me it sounds way too much of the pseudoscience of the flat Earth and young Creationist Earth. It's all about the results first and then working backwards. Or late 19th and early 20th century eugenics.

Or most trans "research" before the 90s to be more on the nose.
