1200%. Is that statistically significant?

RE: 1200%. Is that statistically significant?

Let’s just say that in a Gallup poll, If Politician A were up against Politician B by 1200% in the polls, I’d bet my entire 401K that Politician A wins.

"Conclusion: Gender-affirming surgery is significantly associated with elevated suicide attempt risks, underlining the necessity for comprehensive post-procedure psychiatric support."

Of course the medical community would push for the reverse of what they really should be doing, which is dealing with the psychiatric issues long before even considering any surgical solutions.

I wonder if the percentage of suicide is even worse for those whose parents (usually the mother) had them altered well before reaching 18 years old.

Using that statistic....I’d stand out of the way, and just let the numbers cure the ‘problem’. If you also asked if attacks upon relatives/doctors are up within this group....that’s also probably a 1200-percent number.

The trans-cult claims that the reason that there are so many suicides after surgery is because the people get bullied or their families shun them.

Even before surgery, the trans-cult tells their followers to disown their families if they don’t accept their new gender. “If they really loved you they would.”

I’ve read stories about college students that were affirmed by EVERYONE - friends, family, school and even their churches; they still killed themselves.

One boy said in his note “I realize that I will never be the perfect woman.” (What female - or male - ever is!?)

It is so sad for these people, and a travesty in mental health and medicine. It WILL go the way that lobotomies went, but how many lives will be ruined before then?

There are stories though of people leaving the cult, and getting the mental health help that they REALLY need, so that gives me hope.

Obviously something so stupid as “The reason you think and feel like this is because you are really the other sex” is not going to be the solution. So several years later they STILL have the same mental problems, combined with terrible physical problems.

Obviously, it’s mentally ill people who are seeking to mutilate their genitals.

"Obviously, it’s mentally ill people who are seeking to mutilate their genitals."

I wonder if it's solely that. Jim Jones coerced a lot of seemingly nice and innocent people to drink the Kool-Aid at Jonestown.

I have a doc friend who is a clinical psychologist. He refuses to deal with people that want “gender affirming surgery”. He told me that almost all of these poor souls are desperately seeking attention. He also said that the suicidal rate for these people is through the roof.

It’s been at 46-48% success rate on suicides...wonder why the government and military promotes it?

Unless politician B engages in massive amounts of election fraud, like Biden did.

Unhappy teens get told that submitting to sexual mutilation will make them happy and then discover they are still unhappy and irreversibly neutered.

Why don’t they save taxpayers’ money (these procedures are clearly paid for by taxpayers) and kill themselves *before* the surgery?

I’m comfortable with that. Fewer freaks having, and adopting, innocent children.
