My first encounter with trans was in the early 1950s, when Christine Jorgensen became the first widely known person to undergo “sex reassignment” surgery. I remember some of my peers mocking Christine by threatening to swap the feminine lips and masculine mustache between Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head. After some laughter, eye-rolling, and snide smiles, seven-year-olds settled the issue: It was ridiculous — we called it crazy — to believe that Mr. Potato Head could become Mrs. Potato Head any more than a man could become a woman.
The trans issue reemerged with the Reimer twins, Bruce and Brian. In the 1960s, during what was supposed to be a routine circumcision, Bruce’s penis was destroyed. Dr. John Money at Johns Hopkins University saw an opportunity to demonstrate that sex roles are a blank slate at birth and are shaped by culture, not genetics. He convinced Bruce’s parents that with surgery, hormones, and therapy, Bruce could be successfully transitioned to female. Bruce was castrated, given hormones, renamed Brenda, and not told that he had once been Bruce. From the beginning, “Brenda” didn’t like acting like a girl. He tore off his dresses and played with his twin brother’s toys more than his own. After applying makeup, Brenda said he looked like a clown. By his early teens, Brenda was confused, depressed, lonely, and suicidal. When Brenda was finally told that he was Bruce, he realized that he was normal and that those trying to turn him into a female were the problem. Brenda became David, underwent penile reconstruction, a double mastectomy, and hormone treatment and married a woman.
For years after “Brenda” became David, Dr. Money claimed that Bruce’s transition to Brenda was successful. After the truth came out, I again thought the trans issue was resolved. However

Rather than admit a mistake and try to help the boy, they tried to make him live a lie for much of his life. That was a truly brave young man who knew better than the adults around him. So the West knew the truth fifty years ago and yet people who really should know better continue with this insane malpractice if turning little kids into things they are not.
Why isn’t this Dr Money in prison?
He died by suicide in 2004 at 38 years old.
Transvestites have been around forever. They dress as women and don’t get the chop. The trans-women of today = transvestites + lots of cheap estrogen. No chops.
Being a heavy reader as a child I knew about Christine Jorgensen, he was a huge deal for years, during my teens as I was learning the rougher parts of life I learned that the straight razor was the favorite weapon of the cross dressers, not a knife, the straight razor, during the 70s in California I noticed that far too many normal seeming males chose to dress as women for Halloween, it had always been funny as a rare costume with the hairy guy, but it was becoming so popular a costume that I started realizing that Halloween was an opportunity for some guys, who would have dreamed that the government libraries would come to make it a thing to hook up the children and the cross dressers in nursery rhyme performances inside the government buildings, and that the number one place for a youth to run into the transitioning advisement system and recommends for surgeries for transitions would be the government schools.
I guess the 1990s images of the school principals standing on the school steps to hand out free rubbers to the students on Fridays was an indicator that rewriting child sexuality was a government agenda.
The first time I ever heard of ‘transgenderism’ was in 1977 when a man named Renee Richards was allowed to participate in the US Open tennis tournament.
My chiropractor went trans in the early 2000s. Always polite and a very skilled professional (having a PhD neurology) who saved my 35-year project from certain failure. Always willing to teach me how to prevent skeletal problems by simple and effective means. Stayed my chiropractor too and a remotish personal friend.
I go through a form of dysphoria whenever we interact, as I obviously cannot forget the prior persona. It’s been a useful intellectual exercise, especially considering the book I’m writing that deals with human sexuality so intensely. It is the pivotal cultural issue; one that relates to positive feedback loops in human behavior that must be attenuated to sustain relationships, not to mention the way it can so severely inflect child development and therefore social stability.
Way back in the 1980s, before any of the political transgender BS started up, there was a transgender person in our neighborhood - a man who dressed in women’s clothing in public. He seemed very meek and quiet and was by no means political. Did not look like a drag queen - just a guy in a dress. People - myself included as a kid- mocked him but ultimately I came to feel sorry for him. He was screwed up. I always think about him when I think about today’s transgender debate. Why did the rights advocates have to screw it up so badly? If they made the case that transgender people should not live in fear of being hurt or bullied, fine. But going into women’s restrooms? Playing on girl’s teams? Drag queen story hour? Deliberately provokative to the point of pushing people to oppose them.


“He” being the victim or the doctor?
(But going into women’s restrooms?)
Just this ONE issue should cause every
Normal Woman on the face of the Earth 🌍🌎🌏
to Fight Against / Vote Against Politicians
that promote “TRANSGENDER” 🤦🤦♂️🤦♀️
Now it’s shoved down our throats everywhere.
ME Me me mentally ill individuals destroy self and often destroy others. It’s sad that some individuals promote mental illness.
The victim.
But they watched it anyway because that was all there was to watch at the time.
I had never heard of him before now
(Dr. John Money at Johns Hopkins University)
John William Money (8 July 1921 – 7 July 2006)[1] was a New Zealand American psychologist, sexologist and professor at Johns Hopkins University known for his research on human sexual behavior and gender.
He was reportedly bisexual.

But they’re wasn’t the mass of aggressive and violent trannies back then that we have now in quantity. I fully believe the tranny as political fashionable icon has attracted from the gen pop of nutjobs looking for attention any way they can get it.
Back in the day, there were jokes about Swedish Surgeons . Little did we know that eventually the joke would be on us
