ML is the author of the recent guest post here on the WPATH Files, and before that an essay titled ‘A View from the Ivory Tower,’ which we discuss in the episode. He is a scholar and STEM professor with a profound appreciation for the power of what he calls ‘wondrous’ research to elevate, inspire and transform humanity. He describes an acute crisis in scientific rigor and objectivity as a threat not just to gender-confused kids but to all human flourishing.
This episode coincides with the publication of the final ‘Cass Review,’ England’s exhaustive NHS study of the scant evidence base for ‘gender affirming care.’ The systematic review highlights an astonishing lack of rigor in study after study — which happens to be the main theme of our conversation, though we recorded it just before the NHS released this now-official verdict.
