What Comes after Transgender? Doctor Amputates Man’s Healthy Fingers

I have long predicted that normalizing transgender surgeries would be followed eventually by doctors intentionally disabling patients with Body Identity Integrity Disorder (BIID). Well, here it comes. A doctor in Quebec "treated" a BIID patient by amputating two of his healthy fingers. Read More ›

Study: Most Gender-Confused Children become Gender-Conforming Adults

A new study has found that almost all children who experience gender confusion grow out of it as they age into adulthood. By the time gender-non-contented children are adults, of the 21-22 percent experiencing gender distress, all but 2 percent grew out of it. Read More ›

“Gender Science” Was Merely Ideology All Along

Did you hear the news? England's National Health Service (NHS) has decided that children diagnosed with gender dysphoria will no longer receive puberty blockers because "there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness . . . to make the treatment routinely available at this time."

World Health Organization Fails at Forcing ‘Gender-Affirming Care’ on Children

The ruling class and international community clearly intend to impose a radical view of “sexual health” on us all—including setting gender-affirming care as the standard of care for treating gender dysphoric children—policies not shared by or agreed with by billions of the world’s people. But this important episode demonstrates that authoritarian impositions can sometimes be easier planned than accomplished—particularly when an informed public and child-protecting groups refuse to take the ruling elite’s ideological imperialism lying down.

Protecting Gender-Dysphoric Children Is Neither Hateful nor Uniquely Conservative

Gender ideologues keep pretending that laws limiting so-called gender-affirming care for children — such as puberty-blocking, mastectomies, and facial-reconstruction surgeries — are based on hate for transgender people and only supported by reactionaries. Such assertions are both wrong as to motive and false as to fact. Read More ›

Study: Mental-Health Degeneration in 34 Percent of Children after Puberty Blocking

When ideologues and the media insist that puberty blocking is the only appropriate care for children with gender dysphoria, don’t believe it. The studies have been few and far between, and there are many potential physical-health harms to children — such as infertility and poor bone development. Read More ›

Judicial Rationality: Court OKs Law Banning Transgender Puberty Blocking

In the end—as with so many of our societal controversies—the legal parameters of what constitutes acceptable treatment of these unfortunate gender-confused children will be another social hot potato decided by the nine justices of the Supreme Court. I’ll bet they can hardly wait. Read More ›

‘Gender Hybrid’ Children?

Gender ideology is growing increasingly extreme, particularly as it applies to children. Now, we are being told that children can identify as one gender on “top” and another on the “bottom,” or can be half boy and half girl. Read More ›

American Academy of Pediatrics Takes a Half Step Back from ‘Gender-Affirming Care’

Clearly, the science is not settled. That being so, the responsible approach for the AAP would have been to call for a moratorium on GAC pending further inquiries. But a half step is better than nothing. Read More ›
