Transgender Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine claims children CAN go through the 'wrong puberty' and argues gender-affirming care for kids is 'evidence-based' despite critics

Transgender Assistant Secretary of Health Rachel Levine has claimed children can go through 'the wrong puberty.'

Levine, 65, endorsed providing gender-affirming care to minors, arguing that the treatment options are 'evidence-based.'

'The treatment options for gender-affirming care for transgender youth really are evidence-based,' Levine said.

She had been asked about the possibility of keeping transgender youth from seeking body-altering treatment until at least the age of 18.

Levine has previously said so-called gender-affirming care for minors has the 'highest support' from the Biden administration.

Levine is the highest ranking openly transgender federal official in the country and was made a four-star admiral of the public health service.

She tends to sport her admiral's uniform during public appearances. Levine, who grew up male, underwent puberty as a man, attended medical school, got married and became a father before deciding to transition.

Levine's support for gender-affirming care for minors would, in some cases, take away opportunities that Levine had living as a man for decades before transitioning, her critics have pointed out.

The ABC host asked Levine: 'What would you say to people who think they're being reasonable by saying 'why can't children just wait until they're 18?'

'Adolescence is hard and puberty is hard. What if you're going through the wrong puberty? What if you inside feel that you are female, but now you're going through a male puberty?' responded Levine.

The assistant secretary followed up by proclaiming that 'gender-affirming care is medical care.'

'Gender-affirming care is mental health care. Gender-affirming care is literally suicide prevention.

'A supportive adult can make all the difference. Now one might hope that might be a parent or a relative. Sometimes it's a teacher or a coach or a religious adviser or someone else in their life.'

We have a fed gov that is supporting the confusion of children leading to their becoming sexual abuse victims or sexually mutilating them forever.

This is purely SATANIC.

And very few people care enough to try to stop this evil.

This gender nonsense, more than anything else, is an IQ test.

Transgenderism is legal in Iran. Yes really! It’s considered a “cure” for homosexuality. There are even grants to apply for the surgery. Not much really by way of funds and the doctors there are butchers but yes it’s legal. It beats being executed for being a homosexual.

This degenerate chomo belongs in prison. He is a child abuser of the highest order.

I forgot where I saw the meme but...

Rachel Levine belongs in a mental hospital. The idea that anyone would take her word for something scientific is absurd.

The “wrong puberty” is whatever puberty that requires mutilation and medical adventurism. Several years ago this person couldn’t imagine transitioning at a younger age because of his children wouldn’t be part of his life. So for the activist transfemale Levine of today it’s all in on hypocrisy. The radical transagenda is more important than ensuring people like he was get that same opportunity. That’s how you know it’s the wrong path. In fact it’s evil.

This kind of stupidity is what passes for “wisdom” when those who have handed over to a reprobate mind are in positions of power.

“Reprobation” is spiritual psychopathy/sociopathy; the clinical description is found in Rom. 1:18-32 and II Tim. 3:1-5.

This is why the wicked should never allowed to be in positions of power; they will use the law to force the righteous to commit iniquity — and a government that does such will face the fierce wrath of Almighty God Whose wrath burns against those who persecute and harass His people.

>> “wrong puberty”

Psychos can often be treated, but when 60 million Rats vote to encourage the psychosis, things get complicated.

I'm guessing that "she" still has a p*nis.

This guy is mentally deranged. How did he ever become an Admiral when he was never in the Navy? If our military is being over run by these boobs ,we are toast.
