Groundbreaking Finnish Study Undermines Gender Activists’ Suicide Narrative

A groundbreaking new study found that suicide among gender-dysphoric youth is extremely rare and most likely driven by underlying psychological problems, undercutting the activist narrative that the gender medicalization of minors constitutes “lifesaving care.”

Published earlier this month in BMJ Mental Health, the research paper produced by a group of Finnish scientists reveals that clinical gender dysphoria does not appear to be predictive of suicide or other causes of death when psychiatric-treatment history is accounted for.
