One of the most insidious assertions of the pro-trans left is that those who oppose puberty blockers, wrong-sex hormones, and other pseudo-scientific medical interventions for trans-identifying youth have “blood on their hands.” This is because, such ideologues claim, children deprived of this purported “medical care” are more likely to kill themselves. The fallaciousness of such declarations, however, is becoming more evident in light of acknowledgments from some unlikely sources in the media and medical establishment.The Inflammatory Ideological Charge Regarding Trans Youth…The “blood on the hands” slander of the pro-trans left has become predictably commonplace in recent years.

The killer-children whose true stories escape the resolute censorship intention of news media and other special interests, resemble cannibal-zombie characters in the pioneering "space-western" science ficition, the 2002 Fox series "Firefly" homicidal, the insane killer "Reavers". Rather than providing compassionate rehabilitation for sexually abused children, the school-cult exploits their troubles under various pretexts such as "Don't Say Gay", which reposes on the fiction that "we were made that way", whereas the fact is "they HAVE BEEN made that way"--by older children and adults. (Expert on divorce Barbara Dafoe Whitehead notes that the younger a child undergoes initiation, the more likely...

Many transgender people in the US are scrambling to shore up their treatments out of fear the incoming Trump administration will follow through on threats to restrict their healthcare. “My goodness this subreddit has exploded ever since Emperor Trump’s ascendency. Literally overnight almost a thousand newcomers,” read a post just after the 5 November election in one Reddit forum dedicated to sharing advice on gender-affirming hormone therapy. A popular underground hormone manufacturer stopped taking new orders in order to get through a backlog.

The New Zealand Ministry of Health released a long-anticipated report this week, stating that there is limited evidence supporting the use of puberty-blocking drugs for children suffering from gender identity issues.The ministry called for a more cautious approach to their prescription, aligning with a growing global trend towards tightening regulations on what critics had for years argued were experimental practices. The ministry stated in a release there is "a lack of good quality evidence to back the effectiveness and safety of puberty blockers when used for this purpose." The government agency also announced a public consultation process, inviting submissions until...

The leftists at the Harvard Crimson have spoken out against transgender athlete bans and claimed that the evidence to support the case that men have a physical advantage over women is “less conclusive.” However, in the process of making the assertion, the article ignored all evidence to the contrary to support their own claim that transgender athlete participation is wholly benign. In the college paper’s April 16 editorial, entitled, There Are Many Obstacles Facing Women’s Sports. Trans Athletes Aren’t One, writer Jonathan G. Yuan writes for The Crimson Editorial Board that the “science” is “less conclusive” that “transgender women hold...

However, suicide attempts were markedly higher in those who received vaginoplasties.“In fact, our observed rate of suicide attempts in the phalloplasty group...

A landmark study, lasting 15 years, has shown what many of us have been arguing all along regarding trans kids: it's a phase they outgrow in time. We are not surprised, at all, but the thought of the irreparable harm that's been done makes us sick to our stomach.

A study published in Archives of Sexual Behavior confirms the common-sense conclusion many observers of the “transgender” hysteria have long drawn regarding the sociogenic nature of deviant sexual identity.The findings were interesting on several fronts: “gender transition” is driven by social pressure; females are by psychological disposition more susceptible to the “trans” social contagion; and mentally ill youth were more likely than non-mentally ill to “transition.”From the study’s conclusion:Results of our study are generally consistent with other recent research about the current surge of gender dysphoria among youth with onset during adolescence or young adulthood. Natal females were affected more...
