Sorry, you’re right the science isn’t anecdotal, I didn’t mean to imply that. I was referring to the anecdotal nature of my “polling” of people in the mental health field. They all personally detested it because of the wealth of scientific evidence that you mention. The poll (in the article) just doesn’t line up with my experiences in Victoria. I could see there being a majority, as I probably do run more in circles that don’t approve of it. But an overwhelming 89% majority here? 1 in 10 opposing doesn’t seem like even close to accurate data. Unless it just happens that everyone I know is part of a vocal 11% of DST-haters.
