surprising that the nyslimes allowed this to be published. they'll probably catch hell for it.

Reading about transgender people online, Powell believed that the reason she didn’t feel comfortable in her body was that she was in the wrong body. Transitioning seemed like the obvious solution. The narrative she had heard and absorbed was that if you don’t transition, you’ll kill yourself.
Quote:
Transgender activists have pushed their own ideological extremism, especially by pressing for a treatment orthodoxy that has faced increased scrutiny in recent years. Under that model of care, clinicians are expected to affirm a young person’s assertion of gender identity and even provide medical treatment before, or even without, exploring other possible sources of distress.
Quote:
...noted that “primary and secondary care staff have told us that they feel under pressure to adopt an unquestioning affirmative approach and that this is at odds with the standard process of clinical assessment and diagnosis that they have been trained to undertake in all other clinical encounters.”

There are so many things that have become Illegal in our society in order to protect kids from their impulses, fads and lack of life experience such as getting a tattoo, smoking, drinking booze, joining the military, voting, getting a credit card, signing a legally binding contract, getting a job, entering a strip joint or a casino and I'm sure there are many others BUT the Left demands that kids be allowed to change their genders.



I think the worse thing is when a teacher takes a confused kid under his/her wing and allows the child to explore his/her sexuality at school while keeping the parents out of the loop. Not that long ago doing that was what pedophiles did, "don't tell your parents" but when it comes to gender bending it is completely acceptable.


I don't understand this big push to steer kids towards identifying with one of the LGBQTIxyz crowd. What is the end game to having a future generation that is confused, depressed and angry? In most of the videos I have seen of the "They's and Them's" they do not seem to be happy people. In my area we have a town that is a mecca for gay people in the Summer and as happy as they seem I think there is an underlying sadness to them.



Leave the kids alone. They have enough to worry about.

Every once in a rare while someone gets REAL NEWS into the NYT.
But it's not often.

Jazz Jennings (actual name: Jaron Bloshinsky) of TLC fame is the cautionary tale here. It's pretty obvious that he would've become a normal heterosexual male had he not been made "the face of child transgenderism," but now he can never admit the truth, even to himself...

Yup... after the medical industry has destroyed their bodies and turned them into mutant "Frankensteins." And most lucrative of all... turned them into lifelong patients. $$$$$$$$$
