Well said and well said by the BMJ. This aught to be plain common sense. You don’t allow children to undergo irreversible procedures or procedures that have severe health consequences later in life until such time as they are old enough to have fully thought this through. At the least, the minimum age should be 18, but in the US it should probably be at least 21, given that anybody below the age of 21 isn’t even allowed to order or buy an alcoholic drink of any sort (whether in a restaurant, bar or liqor store).

Joe Biden is a senile husk being run by nefarious DC insiders, so this is a rather pointless article from that perspective. Florida is waking the rest of the country up to this medical horror being perpetrated on vulnerable children – most of whom are emotionally fragile and often autistic – by mothers with Munchausen by Proxy. The doctors committing these ghoulish acts will be sued out of the profession, and should stand trial for crimes against humanity.

Agree… except many parents are aghast and do not agree to the ‘affirmative’ approach, but are demonised and sidelined.

It’s frankly horrifying that the POTUS is an apologist for transmengelism.

This is why I can’t stand Biden. He has no moral compass, no true beliefs. Does anyone seriously think he believes the garbage coming out of his own mouth? He doesn’t think teenagers should get gender affirming care, any more than I do. But for some unfathomable reason, he thinks it’s a vote winner. He gross and icky and creepy. He would sell his kids to a cartel for the right price.

There is going to be a massive wave of lawsuits raining down on the medical establishment in about 10 years, when these children realize surgery was a bad idea.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the prevalence of eating disorders in teenage girls has fallen as reported gender dysphoria has increased.

‘Eating disorder’ sounds as if it is maybe something that can be cured either by willpower &/or with careful treatment such as psychotherapy…gender dysphoria sounds much more like it’s nothing to do with the ‘sufferer’ & needs intervention by someone who can change the person!

They are both different versions of gender dysphoria. These young girls truly think they are fat, even though many are actually so thin it poses a severe health risk. There was a wave of this bulimia in the ‘90s I think. Some people suggest the wave of gender dysphoria today is similar to the wave of bulimia in the ‘90s.

And since when did we rely on experts like the BMJ to guide our thoughts on every single issue? It doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to figure out that life altering medical interventions for children is a bad idea. What the hell happened to common sense?

The same goes for Covid vaccines for children. It was a bad idea from the very first day, even without knowing what we know now. Children were not affected by the virus. Why would anyone with a lick of sense want to give them a medical intervention?

Dammit this story gets my blood boiling. WTF is wrong with Biden? He will intentionally harm children for political gain. I almost get it from the progressive ideologues. They actually believe. Biden does not believe. He simply has no moral compass – period.

My take on this after living for seven years in the US is that it is considered very bad manners to contradict somebody’s personal beliefs even if they are wholly delusional. It’s all about being seen as ‘nice’ and telling a wannabe woman that he is not actually a woman is only something a white supremacist would do.
I’m not sure how this has come about; as far as I know Americans used to be very good at calling out bs, but that is certainly not the case now. The only thing I can attribute this to is the prevalence of corporate values, particularly those that prioritize polite cooperation over truth-telling. This is also how you produce a culture in which an sweaty-looking obese man with delusions of womanhood is promoted to Assistant Secretary for Health:

Yank here. Most of this nonsense is being perpetrated by a select class (maybe 10% or less?) of urban coastal elites who feverishly virtue-signal to fellow tribe members their progressive/woke credentials by eagerly and fanatically embracing every new radical idea that comes out of academia, no matter how bizarre.
Consider the many utterly weird enthusiasms we have seen just recently: defund the police, homeless camps taking over cities, drag-queen storey hour at the library for children, empty the jails, cashless bail, open borders, and now…child castration.
It’s the same bunch. The bs IS being called out, as more people wake up to the lunacy that has taken over so many of our institutions.

To put the tranny-craze into perspective, people should read a little history. “The Devils of Loudun” by Aldous Huxley is a good start, but there are many other works about mental epidemics among young women; entire convents full of females mewing like cats, seeing devils, and — the most self-destructive mania of all — claiming to have flown through the air on broomsticks. I shudder to think of the future fallout from this latter-day mass-insanity, fostered by greedy doctors and spineless politicians, all equally bereft of common sense.

This does not just apply to girl and young women only. There are boys who identify as female, and are encouraged often by their parents, to seek medical treatment. Although that at the moment in Britain, has been the subject of a critical report and the treatment is currently being reviewed and reorganised…

Yes, well, there’s no doubt in my mind — based, I confess, on personal memory — that at some time in their young lives, girls and boys dream about being “the other”. But it’s a big jump from that, and landing right into today’s insanity, to assume such fantasizing has a real basis that all the world should respect — and even worship, as Sleepy Joe is urging us to do.

This is not the only thing Joe Biden is confused about. A lifetime of public lies, distortions, fabrications and fallacies has produced a personality which cannot think coherently about anything… if it can think at all anymore. The man is as close to a walking, breathing Mr. Magoo as one can imagine – and he is at the head of arguably the most powerful nation on earth. Pathetic. Dangerous.
As for the trans travesty, the BMJ is making people think again. Bravo. Now, if we could just get the American Psychiatric Association to be honest about this form of mental illness we might make real progress, and stop the obvious child abuse associated with the excesses of this tragic movement.

Just watched a University Challenge from earlier this year.. The students were clearly one thing or another but the idea was for everybody to be challenged by their appearance.
Poor Jeremy P was struggling. “For your bonus I will show you a picture of an artist (photo of stunning woman). You have to identify three of their works. The first she..they..painted early in their career.”
He really struggled with the pronouns. What a load of tosh!! Somebody has to come out and speak against this. This is lunacy.

The embrace of Gender Identity and the imposition of this metaphysical belief in law is the reason I will not be voting for a Democrat in the 2024 election. I won’t vote for any Democrats for this reason and I was a Democrat my entire life. They’ve done nothing to protect women’s reproductive rights yet have actively sought to erase sex based rights from the law. I no longer trust these corrupt fools.

The sheer level of medical intervention on children is horrifying.
When I was a teenager the thought of these macabre acts being carried out on you or your contemporaries were satisfied by the horror films of the day, a cabin in the woods and a psycho armed with all manner of sharp implements outside ready to perform his butchery on the young people inside.
I can visualise today’s high school youth cheering on and whooping for Freddie Kruger (albeit the synonymous red and green jersey has been changed to the trans flag stripes) if he said he was merely performing some “lifesaving “ top surgery!
I am honestly aghast at the horrors we are putting our children through but in the US Lawsuits will eventually put an end to these medieval practices.

Yes who would not agree that what the republican right is doing to young males is horrible and inhumane, transitioning them into female hating sexless Emcels, forcing them to dress like men from the fifties wearing dorky elbow patched flannel suits with bowties. Of course they become angry writing political polemics reflecting fascist theories from antiquity.
