  1. Sur un autre sujet : un article bien réfléchi sur la douleur chronique chez les jeunes trans, dans une perspective biopsychosociale. Rien de révolutionnaire et puis un peu déprimant, mais si les jeunes trans (et les trans en général) souffrent plus de douleurs chroniques que les autres, c'est notamment en raison de la ✨ transphobie systémique ✨.
    L'article aborde plusieurs thèmes et exemples de comment ça se manifeste et par quels mécanismes précisément. Ça implique aussi des pistes pour améliorer la situation (protections légales, luttes contre les discriminations, actions en faveur de l'accès au soins : de transition mais aussi de PEC de la douleur, facteurs de résilience au stress minoritaire, etc.).

    Bonus il est assez court et abordable.
    J'en profite pour partager cette super revue systématique[2] sur les effets biologiques du stress minoritaire chez les minorités sexuelles et de genre, je joins 2 graphiques qui synthétisent les résultats

  2. #Trans Health Experts Push Back on Youth Care Opposition in #SouthAfrica

    "The Professional Association for Transgender Health South Africa (#PATHSA) has published an important response to discriminatory and harmful arguments that question the legitimacy of gender-affirming care for #transgender and #NonBinary youth.

    [...]

    "PATHSA reiterates that being transgender is not a disorder and does not require diagnostic criteria. Gender dysphoria, however, is a recognised clinical condition involving significant distress related to gender incongruence.

    "The organisation affirms that SASOP’s paper aligns with standards developed by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, which recommend comprehensive assessment and, where appropriate, access to puberty blockers or hormone therapy."

  7. Gay doctor flees Louisiana due to anti-LGBTQ+ laws: 'I don't have a choice'. A gay doctor who is one of Louisiana’s only specialist paediatric cardiologists has left the state after the introduction of a Don’t Say Gay copycat bill and a ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth.
