2023-08-25 13:13:49 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

The removed study was not peer-reviewed and it appears was withdrawn due to pressure from trans advocacy groups (see author tweet). The only study cited otherwise (Bauer, et al) was conducted by a trans advocacy group (Trans Youth CAN!) using self-reporting by members. https://twitter.com/profjmb/status/1661022522446610434 https://retractionwatch.com/2023/05/24/after-backlash-publisher-to-retract-article-that-surveyed-parents-of-children-with-gender-dysphoria-says-co-author/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022347621010854 https://transyouthcan.ca/about-the-project/our-research-team/
