Feds Pay Millions to Push Transkids Lie

The first large-scale, national study of transgender children, including some as young as 3, is poised to expand thanks to a five-year, $1 million grant awarded Thursday by the National Science Foundation to the professor leading the project.

University of Washington psychologist Kristina Olson, 36, was named winner of the NSF’s annual Alan T. Waterman Award, the government’s highest honor for scientists still in the early phases of their careers. The NSF said the choice was unanimous, and noted that pediatricians are already using her findings to raise awareness about gender diversity.

A rigorously conducted study that is peer reviewed for both methodology and findings is not a bad thing. Without knowing the specific details of what the study is and how it will be conducted, it's impossible to know one way or another.

HOW the results are used and misused by either side is a radically different question. Also, the result of a single study supporting either side should NEVER be the end of the scientific inquiry.

Whether you're pro or opposed, how can anyone be opposed to science. Of course, if the study methodology is crap, that's a separate issue.

The people in charge of these "studies" have been clearly PRO-"transkids" from the beginning. And making money off of it. This is not remotely scientific.
