Who are the Endocrine Society who are applying with Gendered Intelligence, Stonewall & Brook to intervene in the Tavistock v Bell case?
One weird coincidence is that they share a building with my ex-employer CGD on L St in Washington DC...
It is just a weird coincidence. But these streets around K
St are lobbyist-central around the Capitol.
Organisations who pay for this real estate do it to be close to decision making of US government. Thats their focus
(* or the World Bank/IMF for international development).
The Endocrine Society is a "global community" but it is very US focused in its membership, meetings and advocacy

Their position on transgender health has a particular focus on making sure US insurance companies will pay out for it
https://t.co/R8TOlUJ0iL
This is what the ES they say about themselves in the application to intervene
They say its endocrinologists who are responsible for deciding if patients should be prescribed PBs, and assuring their informed consent.
Is that really the case in the UK?

Some WESC submissions that are worth a read....(my thread of bookmarks)
Judge Paula Grey is president of the Gender Recognition Panel
She doesn't make any recommendations, but she sets out how the process currently works
Which chimes with my analysis of the GRP User Panel and statistics https://t.co/XixEz7lNJv
She is also co-author if the Equal Treatment Bench Book and writes about how the judges are trained by Gendered Intelligence
There is the government's own response
https://t.co/bOn9XecAkz
On single sex spaces they say the law is clear that service providers are able to restrict access to spaces on the basis of biological sex where there is clear justification.
The response from @womensaid is significant.
Their members want trans survivors to get support they need but not by undermining their ability to serve women with female staff & female only services
They highlight lack of clarity
https://t.co/p7096sZcos
This was their position in 2015
They have moved on alot - they have been consulting with members since last year, and have had the courage to say what their members told them, not what Stonewall wanted to
