Liberalism makes political correctness the priority over science, yet they still claim they’re pro-science and everyone else are knuckle draggers. Scientifically, there is no such thing as trans gender. Biologically your sex chromosomes are either male or female and they stay that way until you die.

One can have plastic surgery and pretend they are Klingon or Chewbacca...but it’s all an illusion in the end. There was a major US hospital in the Maryland area which did the trans surgery for a couple of years, and then the mental health guys attached to the hospital noted that suicide was becoming prevalent thing after the third year because you had to keep suggesting they were different....when they weren’t, and the folks eventually figured this out. At that point, the hospital said ‘enough’ and quit accepting patients.

Someone should tell Angelina Joli. Her absolutely gorgeous little girl Shiloh is becoming a boy. I think, and my liberal friend agrees, that Angelina just doesn’t want the competition from her beautiful daughter. Been dressing her like a boy since she was maybe six years old. Sick sick sick.

Every little kid tries on clothes from parent of opposite sex….giggles, then forgets it. But some of these liberal idiots are so twisted, they actually encourage their kids to be twisted too.

Good news. An authority willing to stand up for the children.

In high school I thought I was Johnny Bench. If only there were steroids and human growth hormones back then. I could have been Johnny Bench instead of sitting on the bench.

Just some clarification for those who might not be aware. The American College of Pediatricians is not the governing body for the specialty of Pediatrics. That body is the American Academy of Pediatrics. The College is a very small group that broke away from the Academy in the last decade due to the Academy's endorsement of same-sex couple adoption. The College has a few hundred members.

Not to say that I disagree with their stand on this issue (I don't) but I wanted people to know that pediatricians as a group do not endorse this view.

Most homosexuals were sexually molested as children.

They seek to normalize their behavior to attain better access to YOUR children.

That, I hear was a point of contention between her and Brad Pitt that led to the divorce.

But then, she has the gall to call Brad the child abuser...

The left is not above using mentally ill children as pawns. The bath room law hoax is one of the strategies the left is using to "resist" Trump.

I think Angelina decided that Shiloh was oing to be a boy shortly after birth. I wondered if Angelina just wanted the attention that having a ‘trans’ child would bring her and she could advocate for yet another ‘mistreated group’ in the USA. That woman is an attention hog. I sure hope Shiloh gets help and accepts she is a girl. I was a tomboy, but I’m sure my parents knew enough to let me act out my desire to play sports with the guys, without ever thinking I thought I wanted to be a boy. I turned out to be a very normal girl. And especially now, when girls have all the advantages that girls in the 50’s-60’s didn’t have, there is now no need to try to compete with boys in athletics. My heart breaks for children whose parents are too eager to jump on the LGBTQXYZ bandwagon, so they can gain more acceptanceaccolades from their Leftist peers.

All this nonsense about gender confusion boils down the child’s outside influences and parents.

Parents simply need to protect their children by not buying into this sh*t.

Interesting that there are few doctors who go against the grain re transgenderism and homosexuality. The obvious answer is that they will be and have been attacked and vilified into submission. So much for the scientific process.

It is clear that both “issues” require investigation but an investigation wont ever happen because it might help explain why people become this way.... and then by extension, the possibility of treatment and cure.

No, it is not normal... if one believes, as a scientist should, that sex is for procreation and that clearly gays cannot procreate. End of story.

Yeah, how hard was this one?

When I was about six, I asked my grandmother for a doll. My cousins had all been over, mostly girls, and they had dolls. They were playing with them and I was momentarily envious.

In today’s world, I’d have been put on medication and in shortly thereafter my winger would be missing...

Good call here. What took so freaking long?

It still is. Different name, different group.

See post 7.
