A transgender psychologist who has helped hundreds of teens transition has warned that it has “gone too far” — and fears many are making life-changing decisions because it’s “trendy” and pushed on social media.
Erica Anderson, 71 — who is transgender herself — told the Los Angeles Times that she is horrified that even 13-year-old kids are now getting hormone treatment without even meeting with psychologists.
“I think it’s gone too far,” said Anderson, who until recently led the US professional society at the forefront of transgender care.
“For a while, we were all happy that society was becoming more accepting and more families than ever were embracing children that were gender variant.
“Now it’s got to the point where there are kids presenting at clinics whose parents say, ‘ This just doesn’t make sense, ‘” she said.
Anderson is so concerned, in fact, she said she is considering ending her own pioneering work helping teens transition.
“I have these private thoughts: ‘This has gone too far. It’s going to get worse. I don’t want any part of it,’ ” she said.
“I worry that people will accuse me of setting the train in motion, as part of those who advocated the affirmative approach to gender in youth, even though that’s not a reasonable account of what happened.”
She believes that the dramatic rise in teens seeking treatment is likely driven by peer pressure as much as wider acceptance of trans issues.
“A fair number of kids are getting into it because it’s trendy,” she previously told the Washington Post. “I think in our haste to be supportive, we’re missing that element.”
In her latest interview, she told the LA Times, “To flatly say there couldn’t be any social influence in formation of gender identity flies in the face of reality. Teenagers influence each other.”
That appears to have been exacerbated by the pandemic, with children becoming more isolated and also leaning more on networks on social media.
“What happens when the perfect storm — of social isolation, exponentially increased consumption of social media, the popularity of alternative identities — affects the actual development of individual kids?” Anderson asked the LA paper.
“We’re sailing in uncharted seas,” she warned.
Anderson readily shared her birth name, Eric, and her story of how an endocrinologist refused to prescribe hormones and left her feeling deeply ashamed when she first sought them at age 45.
She finally got them at 58, and had genital surgery at 61, thrilled to finally “become a woman.”
But while thrilled that the world is now more accepting, she fears it has swung to an extreme, noting a 13-year-old patient whose pediatrician put him on testosterone, even though he had not met with a psychologist.
“Why is this kid on testosterone so precipitously?” Anderson asked.
Anderson, a member of the American Psychological Association committee that is writing guidelines for transgender health care, believes some children seek treatment in the hope that it helps with wider psychological problems, leaving them depressed when it doesn’t.
She insisted that those allowing medical treatment for kids without rigorous psychological evaluation risk committing malpractice.
Those who are confused about their gender identity also need to wait until they are absolutely sure before acting, she said.
“I have a dictum: When in doubt, doubt,” she told the LA paper. “Questioning is a good thing. How are you going to find out if you are lockstep with whatever conclusion you come to first?”
Despite her pioneering work, Anderson finds herself at odds with a trend to make it easier for anyone to transition.
Dr. AJ Eckert, medical director of the Gender and Life-Affirming Medicine Program at the Anchor Health Initiative in Stamford, Conn., eschewed the need for therapy.
“Being trans or gender diverse is not a mental illness, and compulsory psychotherapy is not the standard of care in the gender-affirming medical model,” Eckert, who is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns, told the paper.
“Forcing transgender and gender diverse youth through extensive assessments while their cis peers are affirmed in their identity without question conveys to [them] that they are not ‘normal,’” they said.
As for Anderson’s claim that kids are trans just because it’s “trendy,” Eckert asked, “Is it trendy to be one of the most marginalized and vulnerable groups?”

The world's first transgender jockey may be outstanding in her field but she still can't find love - despite spending thousands on surgery.
Vicky Smith, from Suffolk, made history in May last year at The Jockey Club Challenge at Warwick Racecourse - becoming the first person to ride professionally both as a man and a woman after previous spending 17 years as a male jockey.
The 53-year-old, formerly known as Vince, started hormone therapy in January 2017 and transitioned to living full-time as a woman one year later.
But despite paying £4,500 on lower eyelid surgery and £3,000 on a breast augmentation, she claims she still can't find a partner because women reject her as soon as they find out she is transgender.
Vicky said that despite joining numerous websites she hasn't had a single date since becoming a woman, because potential matches are put off by the fact she's not full genital surgery yet.
Vicky Smith, 53, started hormone therapy in January 2017 and transitioned to living full-time as a woman one year later. She claims she can't find a partner because women reject her as soon as they find out she is transgender
She said: 'I have had a great life as a jockey, I can't complain.
'But there was something I had to live with, I was forced to suppress my feelings for a long time.
'In my younger days I couldn't understand how it was possible for me to not just be attracted to females but want to be like them too.'
Vicky has found it much harder to find someone who is attracted to her since she transitioned.

She added: 'As a man, I was lucky to have very good-looking girlfriends - but I have transitioned for over a year now and I would like to have someone in my life.
'Some people I meet are nicer than others - but to this day I still haven't had a proper date.
'The biggest difficulty women have is accepting being with someone who is transgender- some people are nice, carry on with the conversation.
'Some of them ask if I have had the full operation and say "sorry, you're not my type" when they find out I haven't.
'I think going through with the operation will increase my chances of finding someone.

Vicky has tried online dating sites Cupid and Zoosk to look for a partner, as well as trying Tinder, but said as soon as women find out she is trans and hasn't yet had her final surgery they reject her

'They have more to think about than I do - they have to be strong enough in their own minds about dating someone who is transgender.
'They have to keep their minds open, to be sensitive and they have to be understanding as in all relationships.
'Finding someone is hard enough already but for me it is even harder - because it's not only about finding someone, it's about having a connection with them as well.
'I know the fears people have over explaining to other people they are in a relationship with someone who is transgender.'

Vicky is looking for someone open-minded and has tried online dating sites but has failed to find a connection with someone
Vicky pictured before her lower eyelid surgery (left) and eight weeks after (right). Vicky wanted to look 'more feminine' and says the surgery has given her confidence a boost
Vicky, who was born in Malta due to her father's job in the forces, grew up in London.
Her first serious relationship was aged 17 and lasted five years - the couple got engaged, but Vicky said she was forced to 'suppress her feelings'.
As a man, Vicky never married or had any children but had three long-term relationships with women.
She remains very good friends with her ex partners, including one who she dated for seven years - her last relationship as a man.
Vicky, who also trained race horses for seven years, wanted to improve her facial features and spent £4,500 on lower eyelid surgery
So far, Vicky has tried online dating sites Cupid and Zoosk to look for a partner, as well as trying Tinder, but said as soon as women find out she is trans and hasn't yet had her final surgery, they reject her.
Vicky: 'I must admit, my last relationship was damaged by what was going on in my mind.
'Whenever I was having bad times, suppressing my feelings would always come back strong.
'But I figured it out, and we remain good friends.
'After ending my last long-term relationship, I took a year thinking over what I was going to do before embarking on my trans journey.'
As a man, Vicky never married or had any children but had three long-term relationships with women who are now her very good friends - including one which lasted seven years, her last as a man
Vicky has found it hard to find love since transitioning but she now plans to raise up to £3,500 to transplant her hair follicles later this year before undergoing a full sex reassignment surgery in the next couple of years
Due to the high cost of UK plastic surgery, Vicky operated to have her eyelid and breast operations at Europe Surgery in Poland in March after a year of taking hormones, due to prices there being a third of UK rates.
She now plans to raise up to £3,500 to transplant her hair follicles later this year before undergoing a full sex reassignment surgery in the next couple of years in the either in the UK, where it would cost £15,000 to £25,000, Thailand, or India, where the op costs just £7,500 on average.
Vicki, who also trained race horses for seven years, said: 'I am in my early stages of my transition and I wanted to improve my facial features - especially in my age, I needed to improve my looks.
Despite trying online dating sites, Vicky has not has a single date in over a year. She's hoping going through the full sex reassignment surgery will increase her chances of finding love
'I wanted to look more feminine - and the first thing that someone looks at is the face, so I thought the first thing I had to do was to get my eyes lifted.
'I had major results and couldn't have been more pleased.
'They look very good, I have a lot of confidence now and I feel more fulfilled.
'After both surgeries I felt absolutely amazing, I have had so many compliments- I feel excitement and happiness.
'If I could afford it, I would have the new surgery tomorrow.
'Society has been more accepting towards transgender people and we are getting recognised, but unfortunately we are still discriminated in many areas and there is a lot to be done.'
