How do you find my comments unrelated to transgenderism?

By understanding these parents OPPOSE "mutilation" and the parents you wrote of encouraged it.

Are you unable to understand how democrats behave has no connection to how Republicans behave even though both are defined by "politics?"

Are you a journalist? I don't know of any other group that regularly blames Republicans when Democrats act up.

I have no idea? YOU HAVE NO GUTS! These are your children we’re talking about. If you can’t be motivated to defend them, then you are truly a despicable coward, one no child should be so unfortunate to have as a parent.

Who said the parents brought the doctors in?... So you didn’t read the article afterall, or understand the title.

Hormonal and surgical interventions, and other behaviors and practices that attempt to validate mistaken beliefs to relieve distress and suffering, are inappropriate responses to their condition.

National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly


Thanks for posting this. Some of your objectors do not understand what they are reading.

The NCBQ is AGAINST hormonal and surgical intervention to "validate mistaken beliefs."

I READ the article. My example given displays what happens when you allow the schools’ sex ed program and other associations to guide your children.

Plus whacky weak parents guiding a confused socially awkward child ultimately made it happen. Someone had to pay for the expensive surgery, and that’s where lies the ultimate responsibility. And there will be more surgery to fully transform. F to M , including adding masculine facial features with cosmetic surgery. It could easily exceed 100K.

You didn't notice that the National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly, AND FReeper Jim, AGREE with the parents who are pleading:

"Don't mutilate my child with hormones and surgery"?

Please notice that these people are agreeing that "TRANS" is NOT the answer.

I understand that there the bioethics group is against transitioning.

How ever it is not necessarily the case on the street.

The parents who wrote this article are saying NO to hormones and surgery for their kids.

I think we can all agree with that.

I read it and I understood it. You are the one who objected to the parents bringing in the medical interventions. I am saying that in these cases the medical consults were not precipitated by parents. I watch parents with lots of guts fearful of losing the rest of their children. And their livelihoods.

Easy for you to posture.

psychologists and psychiatrists are often on the cutting edge of trans changes, as are social workers and teachers.

They have no choices for they will lose their livelihoods when their licenses are challenged and removed by the state’s Human Rights Commission by activist lawyers working on behalf of the child.

Hate to break it to you, but if the kid is out of the home and placed by social workers on medicaid, they can qualify for the full Monty transition. Courtesy of the state.

I didn't notice because that isn't what he did! Go back to his first post on this thread.

He was quoting the NCBQ to undermine Chickensoup's Christianity without realizing he was undermining himself.

As I’ve said here before, and perhaps picked up from someone here: someone with a “pre-transgender” little kid is like a cat lady with a vegetarian cat. While they both have a problem, the cause of the problem isn’t the cat. And it isn’t the little kid.

There are anti-Catholic Catholics. There are anti-Jew Jews. There are anti-health Healthcare Providers. There are even anti-woman Women who want girls to be surgically mutilated into pseudo-boys. These monsters do not deserve their name or their power. They are to be fought with all our stength.

Over and Out.

I agree, and the young ones who are enabled are perpetrated upon by the parents in a Munchhausen by proxy diagnosis.

The anxious young teens who disappear into their screens and peers and the system they need protections instead of “rights.”

Not even one, evidently.
Try reading the article.

Jim can answer for what he meant by his first post on this thread.

I was only referring to the National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly, which he quoted, which came out explicitly against Trans Hormones and Surgery.

The money quote:

Hormonal and surgical interventions...

and other behaviors and practices that attempt to validate mistaken beliefs to relieve distress and suffering...

are inappropriate responses to their condition.

It is not possible for you to educate anyone on this forum, indeed you are in every way incapable of educating anyone anywhere at all.

To do so, you would have to be literate.
You have proven beyond all doubt that reading comprehension is not your forte.

Perhaps English is your forty-third language.

The people who have read the article (which you have failed to do, probably because you just lack the intellect) are aware that the parents in the article oppose all this transsexual crap. You have gone on to (hilariously, in a sort,of watching a drunk stuck on an electric fence way) disparage the people attempting to point out to you that the position you are adamantly presenting is the exact same position that the parents in question hold.

Why don't you just go take a nice nap, Jim. Revisit the thread after you sober up.

Before the hormones kick in at puberty, kids do not have ONE SINGLE CLUE about their sexuality. I don’t really care what imbecile adults do, but allowing. your child to c change sexes is immoral and should be illegal, punishable by having ones own organs mutilated. Shredded, even.
