Chile’s government calls for immediate end to ‘gender transitions’ for children

CV NEWS FEED // After a special investigatory commission, Chile’s Chamber of Deputies called for an immediate end to all government programs that promote subjecting children to “gender transitions,” marking the first time a Latin American country has legally confronted gender ideology.

The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) reported May 15 that the investigatory commission found that the state failed children experiencing gender dysphoria or distress on medical, legal, and ethical levels.

“It is clear that the current programs, under the guise of accompaniment, have operated as a gateway to irreversible medical and hormonal transition for children, without the necessary scientific, ethical, or legal safeguards,” the report states.

The report listed several disturbing findings; for instance, children as young as 3 were referred for “gender-affirming” programs.

Moreover, Chile’s public health regulator has not approved any of the cross-sex hormones currently used on minors for that purpose. It also found that many programs did not require parental consent.

The report added, “The therapeutic indication of these treatments in minors lacks adequate evidence and carries high risks. The principles of medicine — primum non nocere (first, do no harm) — have been disregarded.”

The report, ADF stated, called for an immediate suspension gender transition programs, a ban on both hormonal and surgical interventions for all minors, reforms to Chile’s Gender Identity Law to restore parental rights, and referral to the Public Prosecutor’s Office for possible criminal violations.

Tomás Henríquez, director of Latin America Advocacy for ADF International, celebrated the Chilean government’s decision.

“This is a turning point — not only for Chile, but for the entire region, in the disavowal of the lie of gender ideology,” Henríquez stated. “Lawmakers have listened to the evidence, the science, and the voices of parents. The so-called gender-affirming model is collapsing globally, and Chile is now leading Latin America toward a more responsible and ethical approach to gender dysphoria in youth.”

“Well Chile got a clue”

...at least until the Globalists seize power here again. They don’t put up with the 2-gender conspiracy theory.

I think we may have reached peak trans.

First Trump, then the UK Supreme Court decision, now this.

We still need war crimes trials for the child castrators.
