      Transgenderism has fallen apart. Yay! It is over. We can all get back to normal thanks to the leaked WPATH files and Dr. Marci Bowers, the transwomen president of WPATH who removed the genitals of Jazz Jennings. Conservatives save lives of children. Liberals and their wacky doctors destroy lives of transgender children.

    I'm new to WPATH. I've been worried about trans ideology v real womens rights but this is unbelievable. What I'm hearing is doctors who anticipate being sued, they know harm is being done, they go ahead when consent is inpossible to get. They're not professional, they're an ideological organization, they're not medical, not scientific, no age limits, and they're in the business of mutilating and steralizing children. I thought children couldn't consent to medical interventions, i thought doctors took an oath first do no harm. So how did everyone stand by and let this happen. Where was the medical profession? Why did nobody stop them. It's unbelievable. Dysphoria is the new normal. Transitionsing children is profound child abuse.

    I transitioned on the cusp of the 70s-80s and under the early protocols (i.e. 2 different psychiatrists, 2 years of 'living the life' prior to any surgical proceedures, etc.) I believe that this was the right choice for me, am happier, and have no regrets; but I've been increasingly concerned with the direction that I've seen trans care moving as 'informed consent' dominating the standards of care and anecdotal stories I've heard. This seems to confirm my concerns. I'm really sad and suspicious of the protocols applied to the exploding numbers of "trans" kids that we've been seeing. There is just no darn way that all these kids are receiving the appropriate care.

      That's exactly how my trans friends transitioned too, and it was the right choice for them. But this new method of fast-tracking kids scares me. . . I was a tomboy who hated puberty like the plague, and if I'd been born in 2000, I would've been misdiagnosed as a trans boy. But, like many kids, I wasn't trans, I just needed time for my psychological womanhood to catch up to my physical womanhood.

I was going to say that at least adults can consent but many adults aren't fully aware of what they are signing up to, some still seem to think there is such a thing as a 'sex change' and they seem woefully ignorant about female biology in particular. One tiny compensation is if they have waited until they've gone through puberty they might still have some sexual function which can't be said for the children. One mother laughed at the probability her puberty blocked son might never experience orgasm as if it was of no importance. With parents like that kids have no chance.

    I think it’s all much scarier than anyone realises, separate from the harm being caused is the fact that we are training doctors who seem to have no qualms about causing harm, so what has gone wrong in the selection and/ or training of medical students? It’s real people doing these disgusting surgeries and prescribing these hormones and it’s they who are influencing law makers who also seem to be infected with the same inability or unwillingness to care for our children. If it were a movie it would be classified as horror.

      One piece that I can’t understand as far as ethics and standards is, why is Dr Marci Bowers allowed to perform surgeries? Since Bowers identifies as trans, isn’t there a conflict of interest and/or a transference of ego?? It’s like Bowers needs others in their camp to affirm their identity. How did the profession not see that Bowers was doing harm, ie. Jazz Jennings surgery as seen on TLC. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Bowers called Jazz a “porn star” for how much their genitals were photographed. 😮😢

      For many, it is misplaced and weaponized compassion, like in Jaime Reeds case. For others, ambition and the opportunity for significant financial gain, and for some there are ominous or ideological reasons and hubris for why they have pursued these procedures. For all who go along with them, against their better instincts, there is the outsourcing of authority to others above them. This is where true horrors occur.

    I am so grateful this has come to light but also SO FREAKING ANGRY at what my family has had to go through in the last year. I have not had one day of peace because these dishonest people (trust me, that is not the word I want to use) sold lies to my kid and the world and I am angry at the men pretending to be women on Reddit for amplifying the lies in his weak moments when he is searching the internet wondering why he is different than the "normal" kids. You all are amazing though and the only reason I have gotten through this without losing my mind (or my kid or my marriage). Using your suggestions from your podcast and book I believe is the reason he has kept him from doing anything socially or medically and now I have hope he will see the light (he has all the stereotypical traits... is a genius & prob on the spectrum but he can be reasoned with if we stay with it and not push too hard on things) and he can learn to be happy in his body (or as happy as any of us are with our bodies anyway). By this lie being exposed I believe he will also see the deception inside of it in time.

    If these files are reported on with the seriousness and detail that they should be, the ramifications for the way so many aspects of the way our culture operates would be enormous. It's just a flabbergastingly awful condemnation of so many of the structures of knowledge that we unquestioningly assume are considered, restrained and professional.
    Psychiatry (thousands of practitioners deluded by Ideological dogma into denying the absolute core principles of the discipline),
    medicine (The same, with surgeons being allowed to use untested, barely adequate surgeries to sterilise and multilate very vulnerable children, the majority of which have mental health issues or are autistic)
    The media (sat by in muted silence ignoring the clear evidence presented, endlessly going to bat for the team that hasn't been able to present a single convincing argument in favour of its beliefs, in a decade of scandal and outrage)
    Schools (educators and whole school boards co-opted into promoting and supporting nonsensical "facts" about sex, punishing students that spoke the truth, firing teachers that saw the truth).
    The political system has given us virtually nothing, with those brave enough to open their mouths slandered and beaten down, told to shut the hell up, disregarded whilst their captured or incurious collegues lined up to make the right noises.
    The list goes on and on. Virtually every discipline in The Humanities has given itself over including, unbelievably, Philosophy.
    It's all says something absolutely profound about how "rational" we are as humans. This crisis has seemed to have split people into those who saw this as insane almost immediately, those that bought into it unquestioningly and those that are so disinterested and incurious that they are as useless as the sheep that swallowed the bullshit.
    Which of us can trust any of these authorities to tell us the truth again when they were either unthinkingly gullible, or cowed by power and the fear of pointed fingers into solely looking after their own best interests, keeping their mouths shut? Which of us can trust that the doctor we visit, who is claiming to be giving us "The Facts" knows any more than we do about basic anatomical or psychological truths?
    The biggest question is, how did this happen on such a scale?!?! What is wrong with us?!

    I think the scariest thing that came up in this talk was the physician trying to come up with medical/surgical protocols for non binary people. I guess the idea is to effectively create an individual with no apparent/external sex features: no penis, no vagina, no breasts. In other words, some kind of sexless third gender like in the star Trek Enterprise episode 'Cogenitor'. The opposite of this would be the person who wants a pseudo-vagina whilst retaining a penis (working I assume).
    Why is it so difficult for physicians and the world at large to see (or at least ask the question) that these two examples are connected to sexual dysfunction/fantasies?

Clearly, it is making billions of dollars for the practitioners, but the exact mechanisms must be demonstrated. A beginning was made here with a description of the intervention of the insurance and pharmaceutical behemoths, but we should also be aware of the 'kick-backs' that go from these sources back to actual 'health-care' providers.

    As a grandmother this news is hopeful that not all is lost. The transgender movement has hijacked the gay and lesbian letters of that alphabet group. My brother a gay man who died from AIDS related pneumonia almost 20 years ago, was embarrassed by the transgendered group as he felt many were either gay men or lesbian women wanting to deny or confused by their homosexuality. Would he have today been forced into this transition today because he struggled with his gay”ness”. Just like Covid vaccines, informed consent and trials are fictional.

    The inclusion of patients with Bi-polar, Depression, and Autisism will inflate the suicidal tendencies of any selected group. Other conditions will skew the "test", but those particular sub-groups will dramatically increase the suicidal projection.
    Bipolar itself has a 20% suicide SUCCESS rate and 50% suicide attempt, and 100% experience at least 1 instance of suicidal ideation.
    I think Suicide is quite high among individuals with Autism too - 10%+.

I wonder though, what is the goal or idea for those who are already on treatment? People who perhaps have been on hormone treatment for years...? I'm just curious what the end goal is, and how current trans people (adults) would be treated going forward. ❤ I know this question is secondary to protecting children right now, but im sure that somehow the dominoes will fall in our direction eventually.

    Sasha and Stella, I adore your important work. But you are miseducated about Dissociative Identity Disorder. (And its history, and its aetiology, and the scientific basis for the theory of structural dissociation).
    Young people diagnosing themselves with DID via social media IS a huge issue recognised by those of us in the field of caring for victims of severe and extreme abuse. But young people are also diagnosing themselves with Tourette’s syndrome and OCD, and you guys are not laughing about those conditions and claiming they aren’t real.
    I think you should connect with the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation, and perhaps read some of the scientific and psychological literature around DID.
    It has become very fashionable to dismiss structural dissociation as made up; don’t fall prey to this fashion, I beg you.

Many of them were just doctors talking about edge cases, or discussing how to offer care to especially troubled patients. I’m wary since it can be very easy to take a standard discussion between specialized professionals and twist it all around. But I’ll await more reporting, since I Am Not A Doctor.

    So without denying that transsexualism/transgenderism is an existential phenomenon & that it needs psychological & medical intervention, how do you look at WPATH guidelines and figure out how to improve their guidelines & the way that they are cherry picked by the service providers. As long transitional treatment for those trans people that need is recognised & not wiped out by anti trans lobbyists & ill willed ignoramuses. I agree there should be an in depth process (for those that need to fully transition) but WPATH also need to include support gudrnce for those that don't need to transition medically. In terms of socially & society's general acceptance, in general the public & those in law need to level up (evolve psychologically) in their recognition acceptance & comfort around all parts of society (including Lgbtqia+) that are not part of the simplistic childish status quo that society hold as what's normal...

If you require a prescription to buy alcohol, I could have just injected my testes with bacteria, wait till necrosis and then ask ER to remove them. I can also extract bisphenol A or use other estradiol surrogates. I'm not afraid to perform orchiectomy on myself and the others. There are a ton of easily accessible (to minors too) but harmful and dangerous HRT methods, yet you lobby to ban access to safe factory made estradiol implants and surgeries performed by professionals.

    Dr. Mendoza: PLEASE do something about your speech impediment, vocal fry. It’s been proven to be a phenomenon of social contagion and more prominent amongst women. Your very present vocal fry impediment is quite distracting, diminishes your credibility, and was so distracting that it caused me to stop watching this discussion!

      It’s a midwestern accent, not vocal fry.

      Eww! A disability! Begone from my sight!
      Seriously, an issue this important is being discussed and you can't power through a mildly distracting sound? That's the difference between those who make real change and those that don't.

      Vocal fry as a feature of speech is not an impediment and there is no clinical research showing any long-term vocal damage resulting from use of vocal fry. Vocal fry is also a standard sound in many major languages and dialects spoken by hundreds of millions of people, including Mandarin Chinese. Get your science up. This is an old wive’s tale from opera teachers who had no clinical research to rely upon.
