USA - Zwangssterilisation hinter Gittern - Die ganze Doku | ARTE

In Kaliforniens größtem Frauengefängnis werden Frauen jahrelang ohne ihre Zustimmung sterilisiert. Besonders oft betroffen: Women of Color. Eine Betroffene und eine Anwältin brechen das Schweigen, sammeln Beweise und konfrontieren die Verantwortlichen. Der Film zeigt, wie hartnäckig sich eugenische Denkmuster bis heute halten, und begleitet die Frauen bei ihrem mühsamen Kampf für Gerechtigkeit.

Was abortion unbanned because there was a huge medical study in which some women were given abortions and others were denied abortions, to see if the medical procedure has a measurable medical benefit? Were the women in this study followed up for decades after to see if abortion regret showed up later in life? Was the abortion study fully double-blind, so the women in the study didn't know if they had an abortion or not?

This is a post about the "weak" evidence base for trans medical care. And so-called studies to determine if gender-affirming care has "medical utility".

"Capitalist innovation" in action.

From the article:
A new report from the nonprofit research group Tech Transparency Project (TTP) claims that Google and Apple’s app stores go beyond simply hosting harmful “nudify” and “undress” apps that remove women’s clothing in images, and actually encourage users to download those apps.

App Stores Push Users Toward Nudify Apps, New Research Shows

Findings from the Tech Transparency Project claim that Google and Apple’s app stores not only host harmful apps that can undress images of women, but encourage users to find them.
