there's one here www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnhg...
Here is a video breaking down some of the misinformation in your SciShow HRT release: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnhg...
this video explains it: youtu.be/mnhgEtl2HfM as far as i can recall, tldr: the video makes false/dangerous claims about transfems hrt, eg: - estrogen monotherapy doesn't work (it does) - dangerous outdated hormones (premarin) - non-binary people can take just hormone blockers (causes osteoporosis)
Here's a detailed breakdown. She sets it up nicely for the first 19 mins, but if you get bored with the introduction, you can jump to 11:30 to see her begin discussing problems with other famously inaccurate transitioning videos or jump to 19:45 for the sci show debunk. youtu.be/mnhgEtl2HfM?...
here's a better video, it explains why the scishow hormones video is *dangerously* wrong: youtu.be/mnhgEtl2HfM
This video seems to be a fairly good critique of the SciShow video if you're truly worried about amplifying dangerous signals. I disagree with some of the stronger claims here, personally, after consulting primary sources, but good critique nonetheless. youtu.be/mnhgEtl2HfM?...
