A top Biden administration health official successfully pressured an international group of medical experts to do away with age limit guidelines for transgender procedures, including gender-changing surgery, for minors, an unsealed court document shows.

Adm. Rachel Levine, the assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services, feared that the World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s late 2021 draft guidelines would make it difficult for American transgender youth to obtain access to the procedures, according to email excerpts between WPATH members included in an Alabama court filing.

WPATH guidance recommended age minimums of 14 for hormone treatment, 15 for mastectomies, 16 for breast augmentation and 17 for genital surgeries.

Adm. Rachel Levine, the assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services, pressured an international group of medical experts to do away with age limit guidelines for transgender procedures.

“We sent the document to Admiral Levine … She like[s] the SOC-8 very much but she was very concerned that having ages (mainly for surgery) will affect access to health care for trans youth and maybe adults too,” a WPATH member wrote in one internal email released by psychologist Dr. James Cantor as part of litigation challenging an Alabama law outlawing certain gender transition-related treatments and procedures.

“Apparently the situation in the USA is terrible and [Levine] and the Biden administration worried that having ages in the document will make matters worse,” the health group member continued.

“She asked us to remove them,” the email continued, referring to Levine who identifies as a transgender woman.

In another excerpt, a WPATH member recounts a conversation Levine’s chief of staff, Sarah Boateng, and notes that “She wonders if the specific ages can be taken out” on the proposed guidelines.

WPATH appears to have caved to the Biden....

So Rachel Levine wasn't just a pretty face Biden appointed for his natural feminine beauty and as LGBTQ window-dressing...

He is also expected to pull his own weight, and aggressively carry forward the marxist cultural destruction of the United States as much as any other cabinet or agency member....

Rachel Levine is very big on this gender affirming care, I know it is a misnomer but that’s what they call it.

How did they come up with the term gender affirming care?

If we want to affirm the gender of people, we would counsel girls and young women that they really are female, and thus affirm that gender that they belong to.

And we would do the same with troubled boys and young men that they really are male, and we would counsel them to affirm the gender that they were born as.

Gender affirming care is a good example of Orwell 1984 newspeak.

So sad. So very sick.
Just wait till some of these “cut ups” reach puberty, all their friends are starting to change size or shape. but not them. “Why, Mommy?” “Don’t you remember, darling? It was because of what you informed me of, back when you were two years old. We have discussed this before, numerous times. You always agreed with me to continue the treatments. I don’t understand what you’re asking me.”

No age limits? These people are dangerous to society.

I recently read a story about an 18 month old girl who told her mother that she was a boy. The mother dutifully started treating her daughter as a boy.

I hope we would all agree that someone like Bruce Jenner, who did this transition well into adulthood, is very different from a child who has not gone through puberty and has not grown up yet.

Yes, when I first read about neopronouns and other language manipulation by trans activists, I knew it was Newspeak. Things I remember from reading ‘1984’: Big Brother, Newspeak, and a cage of rats.

If they had called it gender affirming care 300 years ago we could still be listening to castrati.
