What you said wasn't just "technically" incorrect, it was demonstrably false.

It's not going out of one's way to read the study cited in the source you posted. That's the whole reason the study is linked, so that it can be read.

You were fine with the article using statistics when you thought it supported you, so how am I supposedly the one reducing women to statistics for simply quoting part of the study to clear up misinformation you posted?

I'm not sure I'm happy with kids getting irreversible surgery done to them. I thought the point of puberty blockers was that they could just take them, and then once they are an adult they can get surgery and other hormones.

Visible confusion

The... The last two bullet points? Did you not read them? Kids can't give independent informed consent, and SoC7 requires it. Generally speaking, and every person is different, it's not until around 16 that a person develops that ability, though occasionally they'll twig it at 15.

It's a question of brain development. This stuff is really well-settled in psychology, medicine, and law.

>Transphobes tell us over and over that detransitioning is all over the place, there's hundreds of thousands or millions of detransitioners - and yet they only know about the one or two

Well obviously your aren't going to have thousands wanting to go on media tours. If you want to get a better gauge then look at how many are suing in class action lawsuits.

In the UK a large number of suing the NHS, plus the Tavistock clinic which was responsible got closed down as a results and reviews are ongoing.

That's the same time frame as the linked study. There have been exactly 0 studies which point to homicide being #1. If there were, they would have been linked when it was pointed out that the study cited in this thread shows suicide as being the #1 cause by a long shot. You could search all day to find a source which supports your assertion, but all you'll find are articles that are misleading at best.
