Medical establishment has betrayed children, parents with transgender insanity

Image
I have a dream.  In my dream, hundreds of parents, doctors, counselors, are protesting outside children's hospitals throughout America. They keep protesting, not just for one day, but for months. They march in front of Lurie Children's in Chicago, Boston Children's, Children's Hospital of Los Angeles, San Francisco Benioff Children's Hospital, Nationwide Children's in Columbus, Cincinnati Children's, Children's Medical Center in Dallas and unfortunately, many, many others. Through faces of anguish, outrage, and determination, the spirit of truth prevails. They carry signs with messages like these: "Stop mutilating young bodies!" "Your white coats hide black hearts!" "Gender 'change' is impossible! Stop the abuse!" "Keep Big Pharma hormones out of my child's body!" "Malpractice suits ahead — stop the gender train!" I dream of siblings who will bravely carry placards reading, ...

Why are trans activists furious with this pro-trans article?

Image
A recent article in a venerable American magazine expresses the belief that suffering can be relieved through sex reassignments, and yet it has inspired a volley of angry tweets and articles from trans activists. Why? Because of the author of the Atlantic piece , Jesse Singal, interviews women who have regretted their transgender treatments, parents who resisted pressure to allow their minor children hormone therapy, and sex-reassignment therapists who urge caution. Victor Manuel Markoff tweeted, “F(***) off with this transphobia. And on pride month too. This article and cover are an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed of yourself.” Parker Malloy tweeted, “This guy’s one-man crusade against trans people has gone on for years. It really doesn’t make sense. Sad that the Atlantic gave him a cover story to spread his pseudoscience and bigotry.” Harron Walker of Jezebel magazine got in on the Singal-bashing action by writing “a lot of trans people, myself included, loathe his cove...

Gender dysphoria purely a ‘social craze’ that will lead to regrets: psychiatric expert

Image
The “transgender” phenomenon is an “ongoing social and psychological experiment” with children used as guinea pigs and which society will come to regret, says an expert in gender dysphoria. Moreover, evidence shows that   80 percent to 90 percent   of children with gender identity confusion “revert to their natal sex” if they are “left to their own devices,” says Dr. Paul McHugh , a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine . “We’re doing experiments on these children,” said McHugh, who was chief psychiatrist at Johns Hopkins for 25 years, and has more than 40 years’ experience working with people with gender confusion . “We should tell everybody this is an experimental procedure right now, and that experiment is not being done with controls. It’s not being done with clear statements to the parents that we can’t tell what the outcome’s going to be,” he told LifeSiteNews. "A very large number of these famil...

Australia: Queer theory forced onto kids

Image
Australia: In News Weekly May 7, 2016, I referred to the Building Respectful Relationships (BRR) program, which is purportedly designed to prevent domestic/family violence. BRR is solidly based on queer gender theory: “Students need to understand that gender is not fixed and that as young people they can resist traditional notions of what it means to be a young man or a young woman in today’s society. … They will examine the implications of gendered assumptions around masculinities, femininities and sexualities for themselves, others and in intimate relationships. Students will begin to develop skills in … deconstruction, reconstruction.” (Unit 1 ( Year 8 – ages 13-14) Session 1) Basically what this means is that students will be taught to “deconstruct” (that is, question and reject) the perceived reality that every person is male or female and accept the idea that sex is not binary (that is, male and female) and that gender is fluid. Students are provided with the story of a fe...

50 years of sex changes, mental disorders, and too many suicides

Image
The  New York Daily News  gossip column reported a girl was making the rounds in Manhattan clubs who admitted to being a man in 1965. She had undergone a sex-change operation in Baltimore at the Johns Hopkins gender clinic. By 1979, thirteen years later, enough gender surgeries had been performed to evaluate the results. It was time for a report card based on actual patients. 1970s: How effective was the change surgery? What were the outcomes for transgender people? The first report comes from Dr. Harry Benjamin , a strong advocate for cross-gender hormone therapy and gender-reassignment surgery, who operated a private clinic for transsexuals. According to an  article  in the  Journal of Gay & Lesbian Mental Health , “By 1972, Benjamin had diagnosed, treated, and befriended at least a thousand of the ten thousand Americans known to be transsexual.” Dr. Benjamin’s trusted colleague, endocrinologist Charles Ihlenfeld administered hormone ther...

I was a transgender woman…and here’s how it nearly killed me

Image
April 8, 2015 ( ThePublicDiscourse.com ) -- It was a pivotal scene. A mom was brushing a boy’s long hair, the boy slowly turned his head to look at her. In a tentative voice, he asked, “Would you love me if I were a boy?” The mom was raising her boy to become a trans-girl . In that split second, I was transported back to my childhood. I remembered my grandmother standing over me, guiding me, dressing me in a purple chiffon dress. The boy in that glowing documentary about parents raising transgender kids dared to voice a question I always wanted to ask. Why didn’t she love me the way I was? I am haunted by that boy and his question. What will the trans-kids of 2015 be like sixty years from now? Documentaries and news stories only give us a snapshot in time. They are edited to romanticize and normalize the notion of changing genders and to convince us that enlightened parents should help their children realize their dreams of being the opposite gender. I want to tell you my st...
