GAY TRUTH

New research published in the Journal of Adolescent Health by scholars at the University of Texas purports to show that the more transgender youth are called by their preferred name in society, it lowers their risk of suicide and depression. However, a top pediatrician denounced the research as "meaningless" and leading to "false" conclusions. "Do not be fooled. This recent study, like all trans youth studies before it, is political agenda masquerading as science," Dr. Michelle Cretella, president of the American College of Pediatricians , which publicly opposes gender transition procedures and treatments for children, told The Christian Post . "As is customary of all trans youth research, this is a woefully small study that is not at all representative of children who self-identify as transgender nationwide.

LGBT people believe they have toilet rights. During a House Appropriations subcommittee meeting on Tuesday, Republican representative Mark Pocan asked DeVos how the Education Department planned to respond to complaints put forward by trangender students regarding this issue. Transgenerderism is a mental health problem - not to be celebrated but to be treated. A mental health condition is not a right.  An LGBT zealot sought to clarify DeVos' stance after  the Trump administration last year withdrew   Obama -era federal immoral and illogical protections for transgender students at public schools allowing them to use facilities that matched their chosen gender identity. Last month, a spokesperson for the Education Department said it would...
