It was a landmark decision in the UK about the ethics of giving teenagers puberty blockers, which in truth cannot be reversed and causes much in the way of longterm damage.
Children's brains are simply not developed enough to be able to make a major decision as this one.
None of these quack "treatments" should be allowed for anybody because nobody can change sex. It is a psychiatric issue.
The Bell decision is here.

Chris Krebs is threatening to sue Trump shyster attorney Joe diGenova over his remarks on a program saying violence should come to Krebs.
DiGenova walked it back by claiming he was joking and being sarcastic.
In related news, Attorney General Bill Barr in effect agreed with Krebs. I wonder if DiGenova thinks Barr is a moron, too.

Obituary: Actress Abby Dalton, 88, known for her roles in The Joey Bishop Show and Falcon Crest, died on November 23:
Born Marlene Wasden in Las Vegas on Aug. 15, 1932, Dalton worked as a model and a dancer at the Sands Hotel in her hometown and at the Moulin Rouge in Hollywood.
She made her onscreen debut for Corman in Rock All Night (1957), followed by Teenage Doll (1957), Carnival Rock (1957), The Saga of the Viking Women — as Desir, the leader of a group of women who take to the high seas in search of their missing men — and Stakeout on Dope Street (1958).
"I was never really fond of any of [those films], quite honestly," she told the Los Angeles Times in 1988. "I was so naive and such a novice. The first time I ever walked on to a soundstage was to play the lead in one of his films."
She also kept busy with guest-starring turns on such shows as Have Gun — Will Travel, Rawhide, Maverick, The Rifleman and Mike Hammer before landing on the CBS comedy Hennesey. She played Martha Hale, a Navy nurse and girlfriend of Jackie Cooper's doctor character, and received an Emmy nomination in 1961. (After three seasons, the couple got married on the final episode in 1962.)
