Is Charing Cross the only GIC or are there other clinics and is their theraputic approach consistant throughout the different clinics? Has anyone actually looked at this or is this just your own personally biased opinion? How does this compare to private clinics or are the treatment parameters the same?<br /><br />I responded to what seems like an interesting and valid question being dismissed by some generic 'talking points' and an outright attack on the questioner as a "bloody fool". How paternalistically arrogant is that?<br /><br />Personally, I am curious if "most of the people" seeking treatment for GID in these state run gender clinics do get grs, and if you and others here think this is a good or bad thing.<br /><br />I do not see a strawman here, but what I do feel is YOU trying to derail what I continue to see as a valid question being avoided by attacking those whom you seem to perceive as a threat. Why is that?Reaity Checkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13837911431745318620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-54383342061003245002012-05-10T09:01:58.769+01:002012-05-10T09:01:58.769+01:00I think I did answer your question.

Probably closer to the former.<br /><br />But it did cross the line, "That's a bit gay" would not have done, though it's a sense I wouldn't use. Speculating about my sexual habits, my reasons for being in a clump of trees in the park (it *really* isn't that kind of park!) and verbally abusing me for being gay, that's definitely in the "Hate crime" box.<br /><br />Kinda weird though. The police lady was treating me as a victim of crime, but because they missed the target I feel more like an annoyed witness to a crime.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-77826162696429600252012-05-09T10:05:03.721+01:002012-05-09T10:05:03.721+01:00Such idiots.
