i foresee a massive wave of class action lawsuits against parents, institutions, and individuals as the children who have been mutilated start to grow up and realize that they’ve had their lives permanently wrecked ... that will end this wanton destruction, but until such a wave happens, the wanton destruction will continue ...

“Any idea when parents and teachers will realize kids should
identify with Felix the Cat?”

has come and gone: some time back, schools were allowing children who identified as cats to relieve themselves in litter boxes ... i THINK that nonsense has ended ...

“When these 46,000++ children grow to be adults with life ruining injuries, I pray they take every action possible to financially ruin the lives of those adults who destroyed them.”

exactly: massive class action lawsuits ... which is the only thing that will end this insane destruction of children’s lives ...

I wonder where these kids got the idea they weren’t the correct gender?

$$$$$$ are at stake. And that is the main reason providers see “gender affirming care” as a positive.

‘Gender Affirming Care’. Sure sounds better than ‘Delusion Pandering Mutilation’ which is the same thing.

Same folks who convinced 24.5% of teens in 2024 they are Gay/Bi/Queer/Etc, vs. 1% in 1970

No more gender-bending medical interventions!

Make children’s hospitals healthy again!

There are two conditions where puberty blockers are a corrective protocol; congenital adrenal hyperplasia and non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia. In both instances, it helps mitigate the negative effects of these incurable endocrine disorders.

In the case of Klinefelters (XXY chromosomes), young boys need additional testosterone to offset the effects of the additional female chromosomes on their puberty development.

In the case of Turners Sydrome (X or X/partial X), young girls need hormones boosts to ensure proper sexual development.

In the case of Swyers, it’s more complicated. These youngsters have XY chromosomes and a vagina, typically with undescended testes. They are incomplete males but present at birth as female.

These and several other extremely rare endocrine disorders can alter brain chemicals and cause gender dysphoria. Not everyone who has one of these conditions will be dysphoric and those that do will not always remain dysphoric once puberty ends.

Dr. Kenneth Zucker was regarded for decades as the world’s leading expert on this issue. His approach included genetic testing, an endocrinologist, a psychiatrist, a therapist, and the child’s regular doctor, with the focus on making the child comfortable with their body instead of altering it.

Radical trans activists lied about him, forced him out of his clinic, kicked him off boards, and changed the protocols. That was when the “trans” movement exploded.

It is statistically impossible for all these people to be trans. I know; my kid is one of the people with NCCAH and it has been a painful, isolating condition they would not wish on anyone.

If there is no underlying medical condition, then it’s mental and surgery won’t cure it.

Moreover, actual science clearly shows there is never a need to transition children. The only surgery should be corrective, in the case of intersexed children (born with both sets of parts).
