Transgenderism: The Fastest-Growing Insanity the World Has Ever Seen
The Stream/Opinion ^ | April 9, 2019 | Tom Gilson

Posted on 04/10/2019 12:48:33 PM PDT by Diana in Wisconsin

The other day I was speaking before a group on the topics of homosexuality and transgenderism, and I asked, “How many of you would say the transgender revolution has been going on ten years now? Raise your hands, please.” Would you raise your hand? Almost half of them did.

The truth? I gauge it off my book Critical Conversations: A Christian Parents’ Guide to Discussing Homosexuality With Teens, which I sent off to final editing and production right after the Obergefell gay marriage decision in June, 2015. I said almost nothing about the transgenderism it — because the transgender movement was hardly in view at that time.

I’d just missed it, in fact. Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner’s July 2015Vanity Fair cover story had just come out. That was the moment the transgender movement took off. Obviously it had been getting a bit of a boost by being the “T” in “LGBT.” But Jenner’s magazine cover gave the movement rocket-launch momentum. That was less than four years ago. The first real public controversy over “transgender rights” came with North Carolina’s bathroom bill, which started making news in March 2016 — barely more than three years ago.

Decades Worth of Damage in Four Short Years

Did you think it had been longer than that? Don’t feel bad. It sure seems like longer. The trans movement has done way more than ten years’ worth of damage. News from Great Britain today underscores that. The Tavistock Centre in London is the United Kingdom’s one publicly funded clinic treating transgender children and adolescents. Five clinicians have just resigned from there “over concerns children were being incorrectly diagnosed with gender dysphoria,” according to the Daily Mail.

The same report quotes Carl Heneghan, director of the Centre of Evidence-based Medicine at Oxford University: “Given paucity of evidence, the off-label use of drugs in gender dysphoria treatment largely means an unregulated live experiment on children.”

Let that sink in. Don’t rush past it. This movement is pushing for an unregulated live experiment on children. This is evil. And it’s growing. Fast. For years the Tavistock Centre received about 50 transgender referrals a year. Last year it got about that many per week.

The actual total in the 2017-2018 reporting year was 2,519 children referred for treatment. How many of them were really struggling with authentic gender identity problems? How many were experiencing another, unrelated point of pain in their lives, and thought they might find relief in becoming someone else? Or, how many were “transtrenders,” simply following a crowd? How many saw it as cool path to anti-adult rebellion?

And how wise is it for adults to administer medicine and perform surgeries locking young people into immature confusions and youthful fads? Could there be anything more foolish than that? Anything?

Thousands Pushed Mindlessly to Ruin

Yes, there could be. Run the numbers, and you’ll find it’s even more insane than you likely realized. Research shows that among children who genuinely struggle with gender identity, at least 85 percent of them simply outgrow it. Now, let’s go way out on a limb and suppose that maybe one out of five of these 2,519 children who went to the Tavistock Centre last year had that real struggle going on, with the rest either confused or “transtrender.”

That would mean about 500 children having the real struggle — ten times as many as the pre-2010 years. That seems like a generous estimate to me.

Obama’s Office of Public Engagement is responsible for ramrodding the transgender agenda down the public’s throats.

Chicago’s Human Rights Commission (the gaystapo) was a big organizer/ fundraiser behind Obama’s election, even while he was claiming to be a Christian who believed marriage to be between 1 man, 1 woman.

When elected, Obama literally took affiliates of the HRC to the WH with him, into the Office of Public Engagement.

It was a major part of Obama’s “Fundamental Transformation.”

Before that, transgender adults were a tiny fringe group even in gay meccas like San Francisco.

The notion of transgender children whose parents & teachers needed to be trained to advocate for puberty blockers & hormone “therapy” was simply unheard of until Obama.

I know someone with a “transgender” son.

The victims of this propaganda garbage are all too real.

It sounds like there may have to be thousands mauled in the surgeon’s room before common sense is re-established.

That’s not only your opinion, it’s the absolute undeniable truth.

“Joseph Mengele would fit right in.”

Isn’t it SAD that a good HALF of us fail to see the MONSTER before it’s too late?

How is ANY ‘Social Engineering’ good for a Nation that was FOUNDED on Christianity? I’ll never understand it!

This was being done to Cambodian child prostitutes in the early two thousands. Long term, the goal isn’t just to make exotic sculpted sexual fetish partners...but to produce people stuck in a preadolescent body to cater to pedophiles.

An article about this on a vietnamese website was the first thing I ever saw completely scrubbed from the internet. Must have been 2006 or thereabouts.

If you have the original website link you can probably still find it on one of the internet archive sites. They generally don’t scrub stuff they’ve archived, but it can still be hard to find something that you never knew existed.

I looked at those at the time.

Someone made it really gone.

That’s surprising, they didn’t even make some of the “uncomfortable” Podesta/Alefantis stuff go away on archive.org when it was convenient.

It may have been easier to accomplish fourteen years ago regarding an Asian website.

I read articles a few years back that said people with HIV age 14 years. I presume that means they die 14 years early. I tried searching for them afterwards, but could never find them. Then, someone posted an article saying they (whomever) wouldn’t publish an article about the aging of people with HIV.
The Gaystapo truly eliminates links to the truth.

It is the fastest growing because it is being engineered.

This is the furthest thing from a natural phenomenon.

Below is a link that describes the funding behind the trans-cult movement. Soros, The Tides Group, etc. To break up the family and western civilization imho.

https://medium.com/@sue.donym1984/inauthentic-selves-the-modern-lgbtq-movement-is-run-by-philanthropic-astroturf-and-based-on-junk-d08eb6aa1a4b

Excerpt:

“Money is constantly flowing down the donation pipe for trans issues: a glowing Inside Philanthropy article on a Funders For LGBTQ Issues (FFLI) initiative details the creation of Grantmakers United For Trans Communities or GUTC. GUTC’s goals are supposedly capacity building, increasing the number of funds available for transgender people....

Outside of GUTC, a $20m endowment was announced in 2015 by the Arcus Foundation specifically for transgender issues....”

$20 million - by ONE group!!

The largest growing group of transgenders is teenage and young adult women identifying as males. Something like a 4,500% (yes, four thousand five hundred percent) in the last ten years.

Most of these girls have other issues such as anxiety, Aspergers, autism, OCD, etc. They are being sold a “cure” to why they are a little different.
