I’m thinking of how in the late middle ages into the 19th century, little boys with beautiful soprano voices were castrated to prevent their voices from changing. By the middle to late 19th century, this practice was condemned as immoral, and finally outlawed. It was felt that it was exploiting a child and that a child could not give full informed consent to do such a thing. It appears that we are regressing, and worse, this does not benefit the child at all. At least the castrated boys were guaranteed a livelihood and a place in society. What are we doing to these children? I am bewildered by this acceleration of evil, how can anyone accept these things?

We don’t give anorexics stomach stapling surgery.
We don’t give people with other types of body dysphoria like wanting to remove limbs that surgery, though there are “trans-abled” articles coming out to legitimize it.
We don’t give schizophrenics and delusionals plastic surgery to look like the person they think they are.

Yet in the name of proving there’s no difference between men and women, we let men have massive surgery and injections with tons of hormones to become women.

Or we let them say they are a girl, dress as a girl and walk in the women’s restroom and have liberals proudly announce the mentally ill mind trumps biological sex.

And a man who thinks he is a woman is arguing he has a female brain, so change the body. The more rational solution is fixing the malfunctioning brain.

Liberalism is pure evil.
