This is why we coined the word LIBTARD.
Actually, that was normal for boys at the time. Hard to believe. Looks like a typical girl in 1955.
What will you say to her after the hormone "therapy" and the gender reassignment surgery?
Let me guess: Absolutely nothing.
It is nice to see some movement on a subject that has been mired in 1950’s psychology. It is interesting that a such a “disease” that requires such drastic mutilation, has not been researched using post-millennial tools and techniques. When someone is “diagnosed” as transgender where are the CAT scans, MRIs, blood work, DNA work and other diagnostic techniques that would search for biological causation? None.
Where are the psychological diagnostic instruments that would confirm or deny? None.
Where are the trials of antipsychotics, antianxiety agents and psychotherapy to test the contents of the patient’s beliefs? None.
Where is the research about diagnostic decisions trees that include biological paradigms? None.
Instead we are told that the patient makes the diagnosis. Because they have felt like the opposite sex from their DNA since they can remember. Not accounting for the fact that in delusional processes, the past is incorporated in the delusions i.e.: when I treat the secretary who thinks she is the Queen of England, although her delusional onset may be recent (within a matter of months or days, at times) her delusions will include memories of being a child-queen, for acute delusional processes are often seamless.
Parents who arrive at schools and clinics with children dressed and raised as their DNA opposites are hailed as brave instead of studied as classic cases of Munchhausen by Proxy where parents seek attention by making up and believing the child is different, ill or diseased and providing symptoms and evidence to back the parent’s need.
McHugh is doing a service by raising these important issues in a world blinded by political correctness that engenders fear
Ding, ding, ding - we have a thread winnah!
Prudence is "wrong" in the liberal world.
The new order does not tolerate the concept of "normal boys clothes".
Imagine if he was upset about being raised in an alternative lifestyle home by two men or two women.
Would Judge Prudy have written "it's painful to see your nephew so miserable because he can't live with the mother AND father homelife he desires"?
In my objective, non-judgmental opinion, this woman should not be raising houseplants, much less children.
