My child is part of the .01% that was born trans.
There are several extremely rare genetic disorders that can cause gender dysphoria:
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Hyperandrogenism
Klinefelter Syndrome
Turner’s syndrome
Kallmann’s Syndrome
Occasionally, PCOS or a tumor on the pituitary gland or adrenal gland.
Not everyone who suffers from one of these will experience gender dysphoria and for those who do, the majority will not be dysphoric once puberty ends and their systems stabilize (early 20s).
Three important facts:
1. It is statistically impossible for all these people to be trans.
2. There is never a legitimate medical reason to transition a child.
3. Dr. Kenneth Zucker, the world’s leading expert on sexual dysphoria, had a team approach, required endocrine testing, two years of therapy, and more before proclaiming someone was trans. The radical activists lied about him and ran him off multiple boards while he fought with the courts (he eventually prevailed).
His prudent and careful approach was replaced by the wild west we see now. All someone has to do is claim to be trans and they get hormones and puberty blockers.
4. The system is stacked 100% against parents. Disagree with the “specialists”? They take your child away. Fight against the schools? They take your child away. Refuse treatment or look for alternatives? They take your child away. I had to be a covert warrior the entire time, slow walking everything hoping my child’s system would settle down. It never did. They are now 24 and still dysphoric. It is a life sentence.
The rest comes down to mass hysteria and social conditioning.
Drag queens are not trans. Cross dressers are not trans. The 87 gender crowd is not trans; they are confused and either need therapy or a good ass whooping.
Excellent post.
