Free “Ask Me Anything” Webinar with Detransitioners & Experts this Thursday evening
Affirmation Generation [3]; where do we go from here?
Thursday May 4th - 7-9 PM PST
In the torrent of misinformation and disinformation out there, a few concerned parents and MD's have created a documentary on the ethics of medicalized gender transition, citing 45 academic articles and examining the harm done to vulnerable gender-atypical youth.
Watch our film, Affirmation Generation [4], then bring your thoughts, feelings and questions to our free webinar with detransitioners and experts. Our format will be "ask me anything" on the subject of detransitioning and the medical harm of the current one-size-fits-all "gender-affirming care."
A local Portland group, RadFemPDX, has kindly offered to help organize this webinar. Several members of RadFemPDX attended our local Detrans Awareness Day event in March, where we screened Affirmation Generation [5] and then held a discussion panel featuring me, detransitioner Camille Kiefel, pediatrician Julia Mason, and fellow therapist Alise Weaver. We live-streamed that event to my YouTube channel; you can watch that panel here [6]. Now, we’re re-creating a similar event that you can attend online, free of charge, from anywhere.
RSVP by email to [email protected] and include: May 4th RSVP in the subject line. You will be provided with the audience link, which will allow you to post your questions in the chat.
Do not RSVP to me! Thanks!
Please watch Affirmation Generation prior to the Webinar. Stream it on Vimeo here [7].
The seminar does not have a cost to tune in; voluntary donations are encouraged. Please donate what you can here [8].
About AFFIRMATION GENERATION:
a documentary on medical ethics
Six young people discuss the "gender affirming" medical care they received for gender dysphoria and how they subsequently realized this was the wrong treatment.
12 experts with decades of clinical practice weigh in, including a pediatrician, an endocrinologist, an Oxford sociologist, investigative journalists and several mental health professionals working with detransitioners, gender-confused youth and their families.
45 academic medical and journalist studies are cited.
A tidal wave of regret is headed our way. Learn more. Register now. Email [email protected].
Thank you for your important work, Stephanie. I have learned a lot from your interviews and am glad to have supported you. But, since you have shifted your focus to your ROGD Parents work, I have decided to end my support here at Locals. Godspeed.
I want to thank each of you for your time here, encouragement, and donations.
You've probably noticed it's pretty quiet around here, without much happening. In contrast, the ROGD Repair Course and Community, for parents of gender-confused youth, has been getting a lot of active engagement. It addresses a powerful need and gives its participants a lot to work with.
So, I've been thinking about migrating the perks of Locals membership over to ROGD Repair and closing this site down after a while. If I do that, it means ROGD Repair members get access to new episodes early, and opportunities to ask questions of future guests.
Please feel free to share your feedback and thoughts on this. I don't expect to see much come in, since it's so quiet here. That, itself, would be feedback for me to consider too.
If you want to join ROGD Repair but haven't yet, and have been a loyal Locals subscriber or otherwise donated, please email [email protected] and I'll make sure you have a coupon ...
