‘They are devouring our sons’: Moms of gender-confused boys unite, detail their anguish
Christian Post ^ | 3/27/21 | Brandon Showalter

Shattered mothers are raising the alarm about how transgender ideology is ravaging their troubled teenage and young adult sons who are caught in the jaws of a gender identity crisis.

Some of their boys are now taking cross-sex hormones, like estrogen and spironolactone, and are on the path to losing their fertility as they put themselves at significant risk of a variety of diseases and medical complications.

Nine mothers whom The Christian Post interviewed in February spoke on condition of anonymity, many out of fear that if their identities are revealed state social services agencies might remove their children from their custody.

Names, locations and identifying details in this report have been changed to ensure their anonymity. Many of their sons are highly intelligent and academically gifted, while others are on the autism spectrum or have mental health challenges like ADHD.

The politically and religiously diverse group of mothers, who hail from everywhere in between the deep-blue San Francisco Bay area to the ruby-red deep South, stress that all they're trying to do is help their sons overcome their distress. But they have few places to turn.

From the original article: “In the United Kingdom, it has been documented that there was a nearly 4,000-fold increase in girls being referred to gender identity services in 10 years.”

That’s what I found the scariest. That’s also what suggests we’re not talking about a medical condition here, but something more closely resembling mass hysteria.

Adolescents going through puberty, whether male or female, are typically confused and anxious, and generally full of self-doubt as well as confusion. Couple that with some psychiatric problem, like depression or an eating disorder, even at a mild level, and you’ve got kids looking for a way out. And many of them find it by assuming they’re the wrong gender - if they could just live in their “true” identity, all would be fine. Couple that with an attitude toward the transgender among the intelligentsia that makes that condition fashionable, and that approach starts to look like their escape from their problems as adolescents.

Until (for many, maybe most) they do proceed along that path, and find they’re no better off than they were before, and reality smacks them good and hard. Hopefully they haven’t mutilated themselves or chemically castrated themselves by then.

“...but something more closely resembling mass hysteria.”

Yep. And spread through the internet.

Back in the 1400’s people believed they were made out of glass! Packed in straw-filled crates to be moved to the potty, etc.

Or villages where all the girls would cry and weep all the time (1900’s).

The girls wanting to be boys is almost primarily western cultures, and mostly upper-middle class and above, and mostly white girls. It is very much like a cult.

The above video is about a girl that transitioned to be a boy, and now has detransitioned. She lives in Sweden. It is a really good documentary and shows both the idiocy of the medical “profession” and the hope that there is a life beyond for these kids. She is a very brave and strong person to open herself for this documentary.

Sadly, many of them, when they finally realize that transitioning wasn’t the answer to their problems they resort to suicide.

Even the guy who says don't blame the kids or the parent (I will blame the parents, thank you.) is completely unaware that they way to defeat this is strictly by the meta.

The first GOP legislator who sponsors a bill to force schools to have state- and/or federally-funded "Detransition" offices will have hit an out-of-the-park home run.

In the legislative run-up, trot out a parade of former trans people (literally, hundreds of thousands) who wanted Detransition access in schools but could not get it.

Force Democrats to go on record and vote against it, denying detransition funds to the same people that they only want taking these chemicals, because it's only a one-way street to them -- if they permit Leftists to detransition, why, they might revert to normal and vote GOP. Even vote Trump!

Those of you who recoil with the 'ick' factor -- get lost. We have got to get very good, very fast at thwarting the Left's agenda by operating in the meta and simply flipping everything the Left represents on its head. This one is a home run waiting to happen.

You are right. This will probably not stop until the doctors, therapists, and everyone else involved gets their asses sued off, just like with implanted memories.

I refuse to believe both of you are as retarded as you sound.”

For some strange reason my grade school and high school each skipped me a grade.

First LBJ created the Great Society and created many broken homes. Then the feminazi teachers influenced the boys to become transgender. Then you have moms trying to raise boys alone and trying to push back at the feminazi teachers.

What is young boy to think in this war between females?

Part of the problem is that FATHERS is not mentioned.

At least in the excerpt. I won't sign up on the Christian Post website to read the rest of it.

“others are on the autism spectrum or have mental health challenges like ADHD.”

Prescribing sex-change hormones for a child that has existing medical issues should be a criminal act of the first degree felony. These children are not able to provide informed consent and medicating them could be viewed as an act of hostility towards both the child and the parent.

It's one of the many faults of feminism. It took away the primary purpose of men, which is to protect and provide for a family. Now, males don't know how to be men.

Look at the problems caused by putting women in the work force. It cuts down on the number of jobs available, adultery, selfishness, etc... I know it sounds really backward, but I'm not wrong.

Now, young boys have no purpose that they can see. They see everyone celebrating femininity, but not masculinity. They have no reason to want to be a man. So, they're trying to go to where the grass is greener.

This generation has no chance...

I’m afraid you’re right on most points.
I do think there will always be a never say die remnant of Alpha-Males who will push back no matter what. Society might try to kill them off - you see that playing out now with all the White Male/Christian hate.

I don’t disagree with the particulars of your commentary.

What I disagree with is your narrative.

All the blame should be directed at those who deliberately seed the system with poisonous methods and toxic principles—the communists and the globalists.

The useful idiots will go along with a harvest of patriotism just as easily as they’ve fallen for the rot of political correctness.

To use another metaphor—those gullible parents you describe are only sheep. It’s the wolves we should have in our crosshairs.
