One argument Transphobes try and trot out is the idea that post-transition suicide is high. All this proves is post-op treatments are important and more emphasis should be put on them. Not that transit doesn't work or that it causes the problem. There is no evidence of this. Also, they ignore low rates of transition regret vs other surgeries or reasons for regret.
They will also try and post counter-studies to transition. This in no way counters the fact that overwhelmingly the available studies favor transitioning. This makes it the current consensus on the matter until that changes the science points in one direction.
They also complain that most post-transition is too short and all one needs to say to that is that this is the best current data either come up with a better study or shut up.
Lastly, their new fad is to try and point to nations moving away from affirmative care because they have caved into right-wing pressures as if that refutes the science.

“No matter what men think, abortion is a fact of life. Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?”
