Comment on Inappropriate Ads on Child-Directed Websites: Weight Loss Pills and Depression Tests for Kids.
madjo@feddit.nl 3 weeks agoIt seems like you’re trying to pull a narrative out of thin air to imply the researchers are homophobic?
In the current political climate, where even just telling kids that trans and/or gay people exist seems to be seen as bad, that’s not too weird to have questions about.

I fully agree.
I think that the way in which we ask those questions is also very important.
They make a good case these tests are exploiting the political climate and illegally targeting minors to make themselves money.
I believe we do this conversation a disservice if we prejudge researchers and jump to conclusions too early when they point out this relationship might be inappropriate.
