Gender doctors treat physically healthy but mentally unhealthy patients. Instead of attempting to preserve the health of that patient, they take scalpels to healthy body parts. Someone needs to protect these vulnerable people from becoming some surgeon’s payday.

In the state of Georgia, it was much easier for a teenage boy to get his hands on the assault rifle he would use to take lives, than it was for a deathly-ill young mother to get the D&C that would have saved hers.

My suspicion is a lot the positive mental effects of HRT are derivative from how transition itself can provide meaning and structure to your life, giving you large milestones and goals which can create a sense of meaning in a life otherwise adrift and devoid of purpose.

Dutch researchers began transitioning kids because the adult outcomes were incredibly poor. The researchers falsely attributed these poor results to the lack of ‘passing’, rather than to underlying mental illness & therefore decided to intervene in the bodies of healthy kids.

4/ An alternative explanation stands out as eminently more likely. That is, the causal direction is reversed. Transgender identification is associated with poor mental health because gender ideology tends to attract vulnerable people who struggle socially or emotionally.

At the center of medical ethics are the concepts of beneficence (do good) and nonmaleficence (do no harm). How amputating the genitals of vulnerable children and young adults does not conflict with these core ethical principles is beyond me.

The only thing that has shortened my life is having to stay on exogenous hormones for life following mutilating "gender-affirming" surgeries.

Roxxanne “Tiger” Reed She can't see herself. She's convinced that she's a lifesaving hero. If she just keeps trying she will get the data to back up her heartfelt conviction that this "medicine" helps her patients. I'm sure she's unaware of her growing number of detransitioners.

The American Academy of Pediatrics announced 14 months ago that it would conduct a systematic literature review of the scientific evidence behind pediatric gender-transition treatment. There is no indication that the American Academy of Pediatrics has followed through on this promise.

Now the question is, if youth transition has no scientific proof, does adult medicine? The standard are the same. The ideology is the same. The “care” is the same.
