i was a “trans kid”. my parents didn’t let me transition and i’m SO grateful
SAME. I am 25 now and when I was 15 I thought I was trans. Gladly my parents told me to wait and see. I was angry at them back than but today I am so grateful 🙏 And that's why I care so much about the topic. Because I KNOW I would have been trans or nonbinary of that happened today and I would have been on hormones within weeks. And I would have actual gender dysphoria because of that
Praise God!
I'm in the same boat, felt I was actually the opposite sex around 14-15, but my mom told me no, you're not. this was before trans became extremely popular so guess I dodged a bullet there, cause had I felt the same way then now, I would've 1000% been just affirmed and fast tracked into the system.
As it turned out, I was just Gender non-conforming. that was it.
And we really need to start redefining issues. Many children can go through gender confusion and only a fraction of those children are trans. Gender confusion does not equal trans because trans is specifically a mental health condition from gender dysphoria, but children can experience gender confusion for various reasons and a lot of them social
Will you guys risk being called the names ring wing conservatives have
In order to save any future kids ?
Welcome to the club 🗽
Lol, telling those kids to study side effects when most of them are at an age just getting them to do homework is like pulling teeth just shows how little they know.
I was thinking the same thing. Like, you're going to give some 14 year old kid with a 4th grade reading level extensive research materials to go through that never even bothered to learn their multiplication tables? Right...
"ugh why didnt all these 10 year olds spend hours looking at scientific documentation."
Especially given that grown people aren't trusted to understand that the side effect of a requested, voluntary tubal ligation or vasectomy is a permanent inability to have children, before jumping through a bunch of hoops.
That dude with the green hair and docker cap saying detransitioners should have "read the labels" of the hormones: I have been a nurse for 27 years, it's not a cakewalk for ME to follow the bottle it is not written for civilians to understand. What IS standard of care for Informed Consent is for Medicine to explain ALL risks, benefits, alternatives, outcomes of doing nothing before obtaining consent.Say i'm a Doctor. If you are my new patient came to me with terrible acne and also pregnant, let's give you tetracycline. If I prescribe tetracycline but I DON'T tell you that it can harm your baby, your consent is NOT INFORMED, because I didn't share ALL the information available. If Docs aren't telling GNC kids and their parents the full score what to expect, their consent is not informed, legal nor ethical.
@@theresas740 Thank you, that is a great point. Just to add to it a little, at least with something like acne medication, you as the nurse know what it can make happen to a developing fetus. You can, in good faith, solicit informed consent. People who want to prescribe hormones, surgery, etc, can't. The full range of possible side effects isn't known yet - and even less was known when it all started. So even if we assume a health practitioner is acting in good faith and making sure the person understands the known risks, it's still not informed consent because we don't know what else might happen as a side effect in the future.
In 20 years this will be looked upon as a period of total insanity.
I hope so. I really do. 😟
Natural selection is a powerful and needed force.
Comparable to lobotomies
See Heinlein's Future History. These are the "Crazy Years".
It’s insanity now. We don’t need decades to gain perspective on this. It’s all based on lies and threats of cancellation for not going along with it. Anyone who is able to think logically sees this for the scam it has always been.
My generation's social contagion was anorexia. NO ONE would have thought to push anorexics further into their delusions. This is exactly what adults are doing to children now. There will be SO many lawsuits aimed at teachers, school counselors, their districts, doctors and mental health practitioners. There are so many people that should see these videos that never will... unfortunately. Keep up the pressure and keep the truth coming.
Having gender dysphoria and being trans is not a social contagion. That is used to vilify trans people.
My husband's teaching contract includes a clause which states that if he does not use the pronoun of the student's choosing on any given day, he will be fired. Thankfully, English is not his first language and he is clever enough not to have to use pronouns, otherwise he probably long ago would have gotten fired over this. Not all teachers promote this. The school boards, woke students and parents, and activists make everyone's life hell.
Gender dysphoria and being trans isn’t a delusion. One who suffers for years from gender dysphoria should have gender affirming care open to them including blockers, hormones and mental health care. The difference is that mandatory therapy took a back seat. Ever wonder why from 1997-2014 detransition was basically non existent? Because one had to go to therapy first and be diagnosed with gender dysphoria.
It's funny you said this because when I was learning about Eating Disorders in psychology, there was a link between them and OCD and anxiety. So much so, treatment tends to focus on breaking the habits and anxiety to help the person overcome the ED. That said, learning more about gender dysphoria I find myself wondering if it is also OCD linked and could benefit from an anxiety or OCD treatment program.
Added to this, psychology has noted that autistic people are more prone to being gay or having gender dysphoria - as well as anxiety. Maybe this surge in gender dysphoria exists because so many people are autistic these days but don't realize it because it is a spectrum!
NOTE - this isn't to say gender dysphoria isn't "real" or that trans people don't exist. But I do believe someone can have a mental illness that manifests as gender dysphoria.
@@juliafox52In the first place. Usually when I would use a pronoun the person isn't present. I'm not going to undo a lifetime of speaking a language to make some idiot happy with their delusions
Puberty blockers are banned in several European countries. For good reason.
No they are not, they are still used for the purpose they are designed for: to stop puberty in a reversible way, when doctors and parents decide that the puberty should not yet occur. Prescribed since the eighties and side effects sufficiently small, as per design. The only change is in the reason why. It's becomes only permitted for any reason, except trans gender care. All other reasons, early age, other conditions, are still allowed.
@@MinomeEslindeLying much.
@@MinomeEslinde In cases where it's actually needed, it's allowed. But for gender affirming care, it's not, which is how things should be. These drugs shouldn't just be thrown around freely
In Slovakia nobody wants them and most people dont even know they exist. Im so glad I live here.
@@barryfortier6377not really. If a 7-year-old little girl goes to puberty it might be beneficial for her health and well-being to postpone her puberty for a year or two. That is what they were originally for.
Crimes against humanity. Sterilizing and mutilating children and other vulnerable people IS an atrocity. Every victim should sue.
I agree. Unless it is for medical reasons, I don’t think anyone under 18 should get plastic surgery or should be sterilized.
For example, I know a girl who had trouble breathing because the bridge in her nose collapsed and she had to get it lifted in a rhinoplasty so she could breathe again. There’s also some kids who’ve lost body parts from cancer and have gotten prosthetics replacements. In those cases plastic surgery was needed for medical purposes. To me, situations like those are the only times it’s okay for a minor to get plastic surgery.
Also my cousin went to high school with a girl who had ovarian cysts that were so bad, one of her ovaries burst and the other one was squeezed too tight and the doctors were unable to save it when they removed her cyst. She also had really bad periods that caused her so much pain she would collapse and need to go to the hospital. When she was 17, she wanted to get a shot that would stop her from having periods so she wouldn’t be in so much pain all the time and would be able to sleep and function better (because she would be in such severe pain she needed to be hospitalized) but the doctors wouldn’t do it in case she wanted to have children someday, (and it was against the law at the time) but she couldn’t have biological children anyway since she lost both her ovaries from severe ovarian cysts (I can confirm those are very painful because I had one and had to get surgery to remove the cyst a few years ago) in her rare, severe case and in similar cases, I’d say that would be the only time it would be okay to sterilize someone under 18. The woman is okay now. She is in her forties and raised two adopted kids with her husband. They couldn’t have biological kids since she lost both her ovaries when she was a teenager.
Other than those severe cases where it is truly for medical purposes,I agree it is a crime against humanity.
The ones who were pushed into it by crazy liberal mothers should sue, the rest should lie in the beds they made. We spent years and years trying to warn them and they just screamed transphobia and “terf” and made nasty threats. As far as I’m concerned this is the gene pool cleaning itself.
That’s not happening though, at most the get puberty blockers which pauses it until they are older
Nope when trans youth have gender dysphoria and gender affirming healthcare including medicine and surgery can help that it should be available. I am however against radiation and chemotherapy for minors. Just treat cancer with a healthy lifestyle. I dont think injecting uranium is the best option.
Yup.... discourage millennials and Gen Z from wanting children, while sterilizing the current children.
I've always hated that they profess that biological sex is "assigned at birth". If I look at a STOP sign and declare what color it is, I'm not "assigning" it the color red, I'm observing that the existing color is red.
.
It's ironic that I've seen activists calling out de-transitioners by saying that "they were never really trans" ... completely oblivious to the fact that it's what sane people have been telling them for YEARS!
Yes please, observed or recognized. Gender isn't like a number assigned at birth.. that's another story
Yes and yes to both of your comments. 👍👍
Apparently the trans cult stole that phrase from the intersex community. This was on one of Buck's interviews
@@Rachel_McConnell that's interesting, I do wonder how intersex people feel about having their experiences appropriated by the trans community? Their conditions regularly get brought up in the trans- debate as examples to allow children to transition.
Sex is formed long before birth. We are mammals, after all. A type of animal. Not separate from nature or the animal kingdom, much as we like to act that way
I'm in my 40s now and i was super uncomfortable going through female puberty! I would have begged to be put on puberty blockers/testosterone. So grateful i was not. I grew out of those uncomfortable feelings.
Same here, total tomboy, even had a mistaken ultrasound interpretation leading to a male name, which I totally would have seen as a sign from God I was a boy after all, LOL😂
Yup, puberty was a shock. Never quite got used to some aspects of it and quite frankly, menopause is welcome. Towards the end, I was maxed out on Midol and still in pain.
However, I never once doubted that I was who I was. Being female was only a fraction of my personality and not even close to being the core of my identity, either.
I find it confusing that young people now seem to be so obsessed with what sex they are and how to express it. Sheesh, it's not hard: take a look inside your underwear for point one, and do whatever makes you happy for point two. It doesn't always have to align or make sense.
I was a total tomboy as well, super uncomfortable in my body. I grew out of it, and now am a happily married mom of two. These poor kids, just leave them alone!
Same but it took alot of work to get here. A lot of work.
Because being trans is more than being uncomfortable with puberty, but people like you have a huge problem trying to understand that fact.
i started on hrt one year before becoming a legal adult. i had only been identifying as nb/trans for a year and only had a handful of appointments with the doctor prior. no therapy was required, despite me being very open about my severe mental health struggles. i have now detransitioned and have an appointment this week to see if i can get coverage for breast reconstruction. CHILDREN AND MENTALLY VULNERABLE ADULTS CANNOT CONSENT. i will never be the woman i could have been.
I’m sorry about that
Hopefully the doctors can try and repair the issue
Skill issue womp womp
Also you gotta be american because that never happened to me
@@lightimagay001what the fuck?
I would be outraged at everyone who pushed me into that and took advantage of my vulnerability.
I hope your experience can help others not make the same mistake and fall for the same coercion and abuse that you had to experience and that you can save some children growing up, and being a counter weight to the massive indoctrination that is being done to these kids by some deranged ideologues who will sacrifice everyones health and well being for their cause.
Time and time again I've heard desistors and detransitioners say "as soon as I told the clinic that I thought I made a mistake, they stopped returning my calls."
There's no financial incentive for these clinics/doctors to keep track of their failures.
Thank God, because I rate modern 'Trans advocacy' medicine up there with the 1940s/1950s lobotomy plague. People need therapy, over years and years, before they do something this radical.
It's far worse.
I have been saying this
This is the modern lobotomy
Ok so how about this then and I guarantee it will work. Those under 15 years old go through 3 years biweekly therapy, those between 15-18 years old go through 1 year of therapy and those above 18 years old go through 8 therapy sessions. The therapy for minors will have to continue biweekly until 19 or else blockers and hormones stop. This work around will not only make it so those who truly need it get it but self ID will not happen and only those dedicated towards needing it go through with it. I myself at 20 went through therapy before anything.
@@kateofone No. Ban it all. Adults too.
@@ribbrascal If you do that I will treat Christians as you treat us. Nothing you can do. Just because you don’t support something does not mean you ban it.
The first video she targets kids with this insanity and what she said about periods was 100% targeted at young girls going through a hard time. We all know puberty for girls can be a rough time vs boys. Honestly just sickening and that person was actually a teacher b4 they got fired.
The way they really were fixated on the period irks me. A lot of female friends/acquaintances and even just random women i met mentioned that they dislike their periods, that they prefer not having them. So if adults feel that way i can imagine a teenage girl to whom this is something new and possibly embarassing could feel very bad about her period. If you were told theres a way to stop that you would totally wanna get that. It would be the same with any other inconvenience. But puberty blockers arent "harmless" and "reversible" as people claim. I dont think we even have proper data on how it affects children but we do have data on adults as the meds are used to treat some things like prostate cancer and pcos.
@@ghostthelizard the effects of puberty blockers in the amounts and lengths used to "help" trans children are absolutely not reversible. Stopping puberty at Tanner stage 2 permanently DAMAGES the child's body.
@@ghostthelizard I remember when I got my first period. Even with a pretty solid sex ed awareness, it still caught me by surprise and had me thinking 'Good God this sucks...and I've got how many years of dealing with this??'. I can only imagine what it's like for those who don't have as decent an education as I had. When I was getting close to menopause, I was looking forward to the no more periods and figuring the hot flashes and the rest were a fine enough trade off.
@@ghostthelizardbut if you dont want to have your period you nowadays can get the 3 months hormonal injection. wouldn't recommend that. it did it. didn't like it but then you dont get your period either...
Well, a substitute teacher. A sub is supposed to just teach what the teacher left behind for the class.
As a little young gay boy (in the 60s) I had "gender confusion", but that passed.
No , you just dealt with it,be truthful.
Allowing them to call it "assigned gender at birth" is only affirming that gender is performative
That person going on about blockers, should be enough warning for anyone wanting to take them.
And a warning about having kids.
A warning about existing...
Yep looks like taking blockers leaves you with a some kind of brain problem
Acting like a child because the blockers prevent the brain from developing into an adult brain
That person was ACTUALLY, you ready?
A teacher. To high school kids.
So hiring visibly immature,mentally unstable people, fingers crossed!, might begin to slow down. Maybe?
Either way, that person just lost her job at the high school she was working at. Because of her social media.
I've been saying, most of these "trans kids" cases are just completely normal feelings of BODY dysmorphia, not GENDER dysmorphia, caused by puberty. So many kids, particularly girls, have issues with the rapidly changing body, bodily functions, and how people are now viewing their now changing bodies. It's not a trans kid; it's just a kid that doesn't like the changes they're going through, which is normal.
*Dysphoria. The actual term is Dysphoria, keep repeating it. It all started with language bending.
It’s not “normal,” in my opinion. The girls are upset because they’re seeing women being hyper-sexualized from a very young age and so they don’t want that to happen to them. They don’t want to be women because media teaches them that women aren’t people, they’re walking sex toys.
@@Mupyeongit’s always been called body dysmorphia, or body dysmorphic disorder. People with eating disorders have it too.
Not even body dysmorphia, just regular puberty!! Puberty is a de-facto uncomfortable time for both sexes, and even more so for girls. Don’t believe their lies, feeling awkward, unsure, and maybe also a little bit scared and anxious during puberty isn’t any type of disorder.
@@Mupyeongbody dysmorphia is an entirely different condition, you’ve confused it with dysphoria and that says way more about you
I am a short, fat, straight, white, poor, old, poorly educated, handicapped, Republican. I feel weird that I love watching your channel. You remind me of the gay and lesbian people I grew up with. They were smart and understood the world so much better than I did as a child. But knowing them shaped my tiny mind. Now I am older "55" and I know they were telling me the truth. Keep doing what your doing. You are great!
❤❤❤
I'm 46 & still looking up to the lesbian parents we became friends with whose daughters grew up with my 19 yo daughter. If you raise a kid who gets through college no mind warp - RESPECT.
To be fair though, 55 is not “old” so much as it is the onset of official middle-age.
I’ll see you there in the near future❤️
@@spiralrose I am on dialysis, I have a birth defect on my heart, and diabetes. I FEEL. old! LOL!
OMG same
As someone who has transition ftm and now almost 9 years later and have regrets...I think we as adults should be more careful giving kids anything that stops their development and glorifying this. I transition due to trauma and now detransitioning slowly.
I wish you nothing but Peace, it troubles me deeply to see how this is pushed on the youth that just want to feel Special. 20 years ago many of them may have just been Gay or “Emo”.
Now they are pushed into a Life changing decision that can be irreversible.
@thetraveler1182 There might be those kids that want to be special, but I do think it's more than just that. It took me another life changing event to panic me back into my reality, and I bet there would be people seeing this as a negative. It took me different stages of grief , deep depression ect to realized why I ended up transitioning in the first place. A lot was to escape the reality of being sexulizsd so young, another was to become the "protector" of my family then I just lived...but I never in my life would i have thought I would be the one who will regretted this. Now, at times, I feel worse with my intrusive thoughts, but my adult mind won't let me give up on everything I've lived . That's why I do think there are better ways for kids , asking them questions about why they are feeling this way shouldn't be shot down so quickly, a kids, a young adult it's still going to do what they want but bet! I still remember those who questioned me, and they were right.
@needknowledge4250 I’m sorry you had to go through that. I really am. I feel as though, the barrier to entry for the T lifestyle is far too low.
It’s not like the LGB part where a lot of these “new school” T and Q’s are in it for the attention factor (not saying you) where it’s a “look at me” stigma attached too it.
This is why a lot of the “old school” LBG and even the T don’t really accept these new people jumping in because it’s wrapped with a lot of mental health attached too it more than sexual identity.
It should never be so easy for anyone to just decide tomorrow, “I’m going to change everything about myself, permanently” and within a months time be on track to do so. Especially a kid, it’s just not right.
Hope you manage a good life, and a happy one. Good luck to you.
Awe, me too 😢❤ my heart goes out to other detrans.
its eugenics, mass sterilization of people they consider less than ideal, it is horrific.
Looking at the history of compulsory sterilization and the commonly targeted demographics I simply cannot disagree.
100%
No social media, no internet, and no influencers! People like Jeffery Marsh sicken me, and the fact that he is protected is even more sick!
"People"? Don't think that one's quite human...
Hell yes!
Hell yeah love it! Protect our kids❤️❤️🩹
@@joeschmo622 yeah he should identify as a beast because that's what he is
Jeffery Marsh should be in prison for his pedo behavior and grooming etc.
"No more periods!" Gleefully cheering......as if the natural cycle is a bad thing.
I noticed that too- the casual disrespect for normal, natural aspects of a woman’s life is so sad and dystopian
There was always something sexist about gender ideology
@@SkunkApeMeg This 1000%. Why is nature a bad thing all of a sudden? I know I'm not a woman but I address womens issues all the time as a nurse. Nothing wrong with it!
@@rash9488I don’t know but it’s sad, regressive, and toxic that it’s being perpetuated in 2024 by people who consider themselves to be the “most enlightened” entities who have ever existed
They're not inherently bad, although it can be quite painful and terrible. Still though, it's not natural to put off puberty. It happens for a reason.
Edit: there I fixed my comment so no one gets upset :)
“Do you think they need less internet?” is the best thing I’ve seen all week. 😁
Talk about failing in their Hippocratic Oath. Those Doctors should have their Medical License Revoked!
I am trans, when I was a kid people tried to buy me testosterone behind the back of all the adults so I can administer it to myself when I was in 6th grade. Im so glad that 6th grade me had enough sense to know that was a horrendous idea and constantly said no. Its far too often that people ruin their bodies and its really depressing to watch, I am genuinely grateful for people like you who call this shit out because its an actual danger
I was diagnosed with gender dysphoria when I was 9 yrs old. This of course was way back in the mid 90s. I went through therapy and like my therapist said the majority of people grow out of it, I did. By 13 I was more comfortable with my body which was the problem on the first place! When my body began early puberty, when adults made comments about my boobs, hips, womanly shape, it made me feel sick. I had always felt masculine often when around other girls and still do sometimes but that’s NORMAL. I’m a proud feminine tomboy who has become very comfortable and grateful to be a woman and grateful I didn’t go through this in current times bc I would have transitioned hands down
By adulthood it was completely gone. This is so important. As someone who has gone through the extreme mental gymnastics that gender dysphoria causes, I get how easily someone could be convinced to transition bc human beings are always instinctually trying to improve and when you’re told it is a ticket to happiness when you feel like shit, of course you will do what you have the access and ability to do to reach that
*Edit* I am the mother of a beautiful 14 yr old son. I could not imagine my life without him and I would be devastated had I transitioned and lost this life as it is now.
I think that they need therapy but that therapy needs to be changed bc the system is so easily misdiagnosing and absolutely no push back even allowed by therapists or they lose their jobs. It’s sad. More therapy. Dif therapy. I know mine worked and it was a deep therapeutic process but it was nothing like what is happening now
@NaomiDollxoxo I'm glad you're happy now. I think it's unlikely you would of transitioned though. A huge majority or people don't regret transitioning. Especially if they have operations to change them. Its very likely you would od realised you didn't want to. Especially with the help of a psychologist
@@chrismonks592 thank you I do appreciate that.
no, I would have absolutely agreed back then. When you are in such a fragile state you are very suggestible. The mindset is not stable. And no, I have to disagree with the opinion most people don’t regret transitioning. A lot do. The stigma is being able to talk about the concerns bc they get shut down so easily. Behind closed doors it’s a dif story for so many. They just are not given the opportunity in this current landscape to express those feelings publicly or even to some friends. This is why the topic of kids and teens is such a hot topic.
And let’s just say that out of many groups of individuals with gender dysphoria only a select few actively transitioned bc the rest grew out of it.
Therapy is to be there to keep you ok as you are during this period between childhood and adulthood to see if you actually don’t grow out of it and go from there. It is majority that grow out of it. That is how treatment was treated and I’m grateful that it was.
@NaomiDollxoxo Well studies have shown that only around 1% regret transitioning. Around 8% detransition who haven't had any operations. Obviously that may not be 100% accurate but it's unlikely to be that far out so many won't regret it. I think having an operation needs to be done with a great deal of care and with a lot of psychological evaluation. Maybe more than is currently done. People need to be 100% certain it is what they want. However I don't feel the fact that a small minority may regret it is a reason to be against people transitioning. Also although I feel that your concerns are genuine and for the right reasons. A lot of people's aren't. A lot of people just don't like trans people because it's something new and they can't understand it.
@@chrismonks592those of us who are diagnosed with gender dysphoria form a very tiny minority in the population. If according to your argument we should not care about the minority, then why care about those who are diagnosed with such disorders in the first place?
@nakshatrasengupta4117 I'm not entirely sure what you mean. What I'm saying is you can't take an anti trans stance because a small minority of them regret it. Care needs to be taken to ensure people do what is right for them. If people want to transition they should be allowed to. I'm not saying we shouldn't care about people who regret it. Can I ask have you transitioned?

So..I was on testosterone for about 10 years, it screwed with the protein in my white blood cells which resulted in me becoming semi paraplegic, had to go to a wheelchair. No one ever told me that side effect, and it took tons of different doctors to finally get an answer. Ironically the Dr who had the answer prescribes T to women body builders and said the side effect was an obvious one.
Might not be too late to sue. Talk to a lawyer. You were wronged
I agree. Sue the ever holy daylights out of them. Far too many people go into medicine not to heal or help, but to make bucket loads of money. The only thing which makes them think twice and prioritize patients over pharmaceutical incentives and profits, is if their bottom line and potential future earnings are put in danger.
The "trust the science" crowd literally forgot teenagers go through phases.
AND WHAT THE AGE OF CONSENT MEANS!
Shock. Puberty is awkward, uncomfortable and weird. These kids express this and the medical community sees dollar signs for conversion.
Wow, it's almost like puberty is stressful. This is a new discovery. The Babylonians didn't know this.
Literally knew about all this for years...but because "we found a new study!" or "there's new evidence!" ....all that was tossed out the window.
I hated being a girl. I wanted to do boy stuff and wear boy stuff. My parents just let me be and pushed no stereotypes on me. Plus, we had a lot of boys in the family so it saved on toys lol! Anyways, as I started to make it to the backside of puberty, I finally became comfortable as a girl/woman. It took puberty to make me comfortable.
Relatable. I never wanted to be a boy per se but really didn't like "girl stuff" - a tomboy basically but the key I think was that my parents weren't pushy in any direction, they just let me get on and figure out my way of being a girl without trying to force the stereotypes (in all honesty I think my dad was chuffed that I was into cars and formula 1 like him, as my older brother had zero interest).
Point being, we, as many others (including the studies) are proof that puberty is the "cure" for any discomfort or uncertainty in most people. Administering puberty blockers only prolongs the confusion, it is literally stopping the very thing that would alleviate any feelings relating to gender and your body. Its terribly sad and completely contradictory.
Congratulations! Thats you. For transgender people, puberty usually just makes the dysphoria WORSE. Long after puberty.
@@theofferiiing yes, for people that actually have gender dysphoria. Not 90% of kids who are just confused due to puberty. Like the video outlined, only 10% of trans kids end up actually being trans. Puberty is uncomfortable for most people.
@@AshleyWilliams-xq7lj doesn’t mean we should just write it off as nothing, if children show signs or say they think they’re a different gender they should get the support and help they need. Maybe they’ll end up not being trans, but it’s better than just saying they aren’t and ignoring their issues all together.
"It took puberty to make me comfortable" might be the most powerful statement I have ever read/heard about this subject. It needs to be adopted by many and stated often.
They need less phones and social networks. This is a "1st world problem". Nobody else in the world has the time, money, self delusion for this crap.
Yes take away all their communication and isolate them from society. Trans kids exist in the rest of the world too
I am a guitar teacher and in my career I've taught 2 kids who had a parent that was a child phycologist! These kids where the worst kids I ever taught which led me to believe that whatever their parents learned in college is messed up!! I went to school with an individual whose dad was a child phycologist, and he was the most un behaved kid in school with many. many problems!! Again, leads me to believe that most of these phycologists don't know what they are doing!!
Most go into that field trying to find answers to their own issues. My oldest brother told me that once and then I started paying attention myself. The most messed up people with the most messed up home lives that I knew were the ones choosing to go into psychology in college.
@kimmyB9203 my mom told me that too. That said, I'm going to a good therapist right now. The one thing I had to learn the hard way is they aren't mind readers. My husband (he's the one who suggested counseling) and I went to counseling for 5 year, but I had rose colored glasses on. It wasn't until I finally got on and the off anti anxiety medication that I realized my husband had problems. The medication numbed my feelings. When I got off of them 8 months later, I felt what I really felt. For the first time I realized my husband had weaknesses. And once I knew this, God started being able to help me know and understand other things about my husband. The things I know now the therapist never picked up on. I still remember the shocked look on her face, after 4 years of counseling, when I said "now that I know he has weaknesses..."
@@carrielawooto9933 I am sure there are good ones mixed in with the bad ones. I did try 3 different ones at 3 different times in my life. Funny thing is that I was who everyone seemed to talk to at work. I don't know why people feel safe telling me things except that I wouldn't tell anyone else and I'd only give advice if i could see they were in real danger in their situation. When i did try therapy, we ended up talking about the therapist, their family, the work life they couldn't wait to get out of, etc. They felt comfortable telling me everything and did. All my life, strangers would talk to me. My friends at work said I'm a weirdo magnet because women and men felt very comfortable just walking up and talking and I'd listen instead of telling them to go away. I've always been that person. I found my cure. I don't leave the house unless I have to. When I do, people tell me things they normally would not tell anyone, but i attract the most broken people. No matter how put together they may be on the outside, if they are hurting, they'll tell me. My son, won't go in a store with me because people talk to me. His daughter attracts the same. Everyone calls her when they have problems. She'll sometimes say she feels like a therapist. Boys and girls call her to talk about their relationships and problems with their parents. She listens, doesn't interrupt and then says things like "have you tried apologizing" and "if you did that to me, I'd probably have broken up with you too, so the only thing you can do is give her some space for a couple days and then apologize sincerely or just move on because you hurt her" or "think about what you just said, do you think you deserve to be cheated on. You know that he's not being protective, he's being possessive" and when she gets off the phone or comes home after they've called her crying, she'll say to me "I think my therapy sessions are done for tonight". I let her tell me what's going on because carrying everyone's baggage is hard, but it seems to be our life's calling. She's 13 and is already carrying so many secrets of neighborhood friends and school friends that it weighs her down. She is me at 13. I had no one to talk to about everyone's secrets. She has me. Neither of us want to be therapists, but neither of us wants to tell people to we're too busy either, so we listen. Don't use your husband's weaknesses to tear him down. We should be lifting up our partners if we love them. If not, leave because it's not true love if we want to hurt them. Just saying.
What wpath did was out psychotherapists from the equation. Affirmative care does not include anything psychological.
@@upnorth2421 Exactly! I actually knew an adult who transitioned. They went through several years of intense therapy before, during and after any step was taken. He started therapy as a teen and was an ER physician by the time they started his physical transition with hormones. He had to live as a female for at least 1 year before having top surgery to transition to female. She was very open about it as she couldn't exactly hide the fact that she started working there as a man, but came in one day and every day after that wearing women's clothing and makeup. I believe there are some people that truly feel that way, but today it's become the trendy thing to be and no form of mental therapy is involved.
Pretty insane to allow literal children to do something so drastic and permanent. I was an idiot in my teen years, I probably wouldn't be alive today if I had been allowed to do everything my undeveloped brain thought it wanted to do.
Exactly. I prefer not to read too into whatever Make Believe game the children happen to be playing. It's part of how developing minds try out new concepts to their minds in an imaginary fashion.
Right? We don’t allow children to drink alcohol or get tattoos because they don’t yet have the capacity to think about long-term consequences.
But they’re being encouraged to make permanent changes to their bodies that not even doctors know the full side effects of?
Puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and cross-surgery are all multi-billion dollar industries, so it all makes sense.
Correct
Ok but for those with severe dysphoria you have to allow options. If you force them to go through the irreversible changes of puberty against their will then you should allow surgery for free.
"Landmark 15 year study says...." - EVERYTHING WE'VE KNOWN FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS
But we need these studies to prove the harm. The TRAs are always claiming there's no proof that this is doing harm, so it is very much needed.
The woke are obsessed with proving that they are BETTER THEN every single human being that existed before they were born.
Logic is not on their side because they have the "dialectic", a way of thinking and speaking that allows them to ignore reality on every level, and live the lies.
They are also belittled and envious of the accomplishments of everyone that came before them, and can ONLY react with accusations of racism and slavery.... to the point where those two things are ALL that they know about the past and will consent to speaking about in any way, shape or form.
@@ArachnerdGC Indeed
@@ArachnerdGC It is needed. But the question is: will these people listen? I doubt it...
@@ArachnerdGCYou're not wrong but that's sad. Because this isn't the first study that has said this exact thing. There was a study exactly like this done in the '80s. It said the same thing. What's sad is that we have to harm children to learn a lesson we've already known. We have to prove to these people that harming children isn't the right way.
"Did you do any research?" screeches the crybully that swallows everything the MSM claims 🙄
One must remember Egon Moniz was awarded a Nobel prize in Medicine for introducing lobotomy.
The fact that that kid can't say the word penis or breasts tells you they are way too immature for any of it
🤨
I dated the girl in the begging of the video in 8th grade. It’s honestly extremely sad to see what happened to her.
Wait what? I am so sorry to hear that. Hope she gets better.
I’m really frightened of what it’s going to be like when this ideology reaches saturation and begins crumbling like a skyscraper made of sand.
People are going to be hurt so badly.
I agree. Try to enjoy the law suits!!!
it has started already.
Luckily they pushed too far and regular people who've just been going along with the cultural tide in an apathetic attempt to not be "mean" are starting to realize the insanity of all of this. I think we're slowly coming back to where we were 10 years ago before this all became the major ideology of the left/the establishment
Going to be hurt?
@@helenromanelli2544 The "trans" community is just going to get more and more violent, especially in the face of women finally pushing back. Take what Riley Gaines went through for having the guts to speak out, and times it by 100,000. That's what's going to happen when the blowback hits critical mass.
I would not recommend therapy, unless you can find an old therapist who has not been ideologically captured by the radical gender theorists.
Yeah I don't see many therapists helping, I honestly had to watch fully transitioned youtubers long enough to see they were unhappy and insecure and made the choice myself, telling them directly almost never works, maybe get new friends too because that was a factor for me.
Truth
True, you’d probably come back out saying you’re a trans lesbian even though you just went in for depression
If my arm hurts I'm not just going to go into a doctor and demand surgery on it, im going to ask for them to figure out what's wrong.
Yeah obviously
I’m just waiting for the commercials a few years down the line.
“If you or a loved one have been wrongfully diagnosed with gender dysphoria by any of these clinical organizations presented on your screen, you may be entitled to financial compensation…”
I went through this not content with my gender. From about ten to 14. And then finally realized I was straight and male, and happy with it. Asked my father about it during this period . And his advice was so helpful. Don't panic. Your going through a phase because of puberty. Just wait and hang on. It will straighten out . And it did just like he said .
The fact people think they can just wake up at 42 and go ... okay NOW I want to go through puberty ... and turn it back on is just insane. Nah, that boat was sunk decades ago. You've diddled your biology, have fun with the rest of your life. I'll ask this again, if we could turn off our natural biological progressions .. why are we mortal. Let's just stop aging. Apparently, someone said we can turn this kind of thing off. Want your toddler to be cute and cuddly for 25 years instead of 3? Just flip the switch. SMFH.
Yeah. I've had people online pushing that stopping the blockers will let them go back to their proper state, have no reply when I ask how they get years of development back when that time is gone. If you put them on blockers at 11, have them stop at 16, and then get 5 years worth of time back. No matter what, your body is programmed to stop certain development at a given point. Any time lost during that time can't be gotten back. Their body doesn't reset to being 11.
You're a voice of reason in a crazy world. I have nothing but respect for you. Keep speaking up, we need you.
I was very young when I started puberty, age 9, and I felt uncomfortable in my body because I did not like the changes until I was 13 years old, but mostly that was due to bullying because a lot of girls were jealous of me and a lot of boys cat called me
Yup. My sister would say horrible things about my body during puberty. It’s not a good time, socially. I think we’d all be okay if left alone and no one is left alone in this social media world.
It's not "informed consent" when you don't have the full picture of what will happen and given all of the details of the whole thing.
Thank you for this video! so important
There are people who wouldn't even give their real names to strangers and you gave your whole bodies.
They fight and cancel those who try to warn them.
Bro I haven't given anybody my body what u talking about
Maybe we should start holding the parents accountable.
how dare you suggest parents parent their children Ahaha
Yes, and we also need to stop "therapists" from using the "if you don't allow your child to transition, they will commit sewer-side*" emotional blackmail card. It was used extensively at the Tavistock trans-kid-mill in London. They also would say this to the parents in front of the child, thereby giving the child tacit permission to use this tactic to get their way with the parents. Ethically and morally reprehensible.
*deliberate misspelling to avoid comment deletion
@@ArachnerdGCalso we need to stop the use of the narrative that these people were "born in the wrong body".
When a parent is told that if they don't go along their child will kill themselves, you can't blame them.
Yes and no.
Yes, as a society we have already some hard limits on what parents are/aren't allowed to do with their children.
Examples: limitation on addictive substances (alcohol, tobacco), limitation on sexuality ("age of consent"), minimum education, working conditions and hours, mobility (driver's license).
All of this is regulated by the government. And that's because we found common ground and set our limits accordingly.
No, because the basis for the common ground was both the willingness to compromise and a pretty large overlap in culture across the board. Neither of which is the case anymore.
I would say let's look at what is already on the books in regards to parental rights/obligations when it comes to medical procedures .... and apply that. Otherwise, we get the kinds of knee-jerk overreactions that are in the making right now.
I don't want to live in a world of extremes, and I have *not* forgotten what conservatives were like 40 years ago ... let's not return to that. Let's find a balanced approach that is based on hard data. I understand this means many children will continue to suffer until we find a reasonable solution, but ... I don't know how to prevent swinging too far in the other direction if we act in haste.
And there is one more argument against cracking down on parents too much: if we open that door, i.e. the state getting the right to decide what parents can/cannot do retroactively, it will be abused later down the road. Next thing you know, they'll retroactively decide that you shouldn't have given your child a diet including meat ... and off to the gulag you go.
I still cannot believe that there are meanwhile families in which all 4 children are trans, which is statistically extremly unlikely, and the mother cheers and go alonge with it. I hope these families will at least listening and not ignoring just to avoid admitting that they were wrong
I hope all these parents are held LEGALLY ACCOUNTABLE.
Yup and they don’t find that strange at all. Humans aren’t meant to be this was that’s why these they are less than 1% of the population. And it’s why this who “gender dysphoria” is a me ntal 1llnes
Blatantly Munchausen by proxy. The parent(s) want to show how progressive and open-minded they are to their friends and random strangers on the internet, by compelling their kids to follow a path that suits their agenda.
A lady I know has 3 LGBT kids out of 5. I wanted to ask her how their family managed something so statistically rare. But she gave up church and friends to support her kids. Oh well.
”I wish I was of the opposite sex” doesn’t mean ”I wanna transition”. I wish I had a Porsche. Doesn’t mean I wanna be a Transformer.
THANK YOU FOR BEING THE ONLY PERSON WHO CUTS OUT THE "IM GLAD YOU ASKED" SCREAM
I fast forward that idiots parts I can’t stand it 😂
Not gender affirming care, but trauma care. The old way of allowing someone progressing on the trans journey, the year of social transition plus hard core therapy, group therapy, homework. Buck knows what he had to go thru. Allow 30 day stays for adolescents in psych units to stave off the unalive feelings. Pre Reagan years.
We need to go back to that, if only to help separate patients who have another condition or trauma that might be driving them to pursue transitioning instead of having actual gender dysphoria.
Win win: you reduce the rate of people detransitioning and you support those with actual dysphoria successfully transition.
More like Trauma Scars.
I think it's totally disgusting the way doctors and other medical physicians are putting kids through this crap
MONEY!! they get kickbacks from Pharma etc!!
Most doctors I know are horrified by this stuff, but there are unscrupulous and unethical people in any profession who will do anything for money. Heck, most doctors I know want nothing to do with the AMA, the American College of Pediatrics, etc. because of ideological capture in those organizations.
I'm not a fan of this whole trend , but I have to say: it's the parents' fault. It's their responsibility what they allow their kids to do. Sue these parents. As for adults doing this stupid stuff: take responsibility and live with the consequences. Sex can't really be changed. Transition makes you a lifelong patient. This is the deal everyone must understand.
Genuinely hate the Canadian government because my foater parents didn't want me to but they have to agree with the transition because I was under government care not theirs.
@MonsterTaming420 maybe you can sue the government? I believe that lawsuits are the only way to put an end to this madness.
And in some places parents have to go along with it or the government will take the child away because ‘not letting them transition is abuse’
@@marycrawford9428that’s what I was thinking. It’s so scary hearing those parents’ stories.
In some cases like the Jazz Jennings case, I can understand that sentiment. However, in some countries [or States if you live in the US], the government holds you at gunpoint and tells you to let your kid take these horrific and irreversible drugs and go through genital mutilation …or you'll never see your kid again. And unfortunately more often than not it's the latter.
So I guess the question here is how much blame should the parents shoulder if that happens?
It's shocking that no sensible adult actually said NO WAIT AND SEE.
I think a proper explanation of what to expect during puberty would go a long way in preventing misdiagnosis for many things.
I agree and a acceptance of it in a positive light.
Literally!
The one in blue is at a level of disturbing that I can't even put into words............
Oh absolutely, my name is Morgyn McDonald (I go by Elisa L'Hirondelle online) and I haven't had any support in making it known that I was a 17 yo runaway living in an emergency shelter... and pregnant... and yet Dr Lokanathan in Peterborough Ontario decided to hand me a script for Testosterone in 2013 to treat my CPTSD which I thought was being Trans.
I needed EXTREME intervention.
Not hormonal, but home care.
I'm a 28yo pregnant mother now who wishes other kids like me had been protected..
This generation needs to be ok with being uncomfortable! Because that is life, sometimes (a lot of times) you will be uncomfortable! And that’s ok.
Here’s my story: I have always hated my breasts, I am naturally very heavy chested since high school.. and had terrible self-esteem, even in my marriage I did not feel comfortable with breasts outside of a bra and rarely showed them.
But despite years of the uncomfortablity and the pain on my shoulders. I did not cut off my breasts.
I dealt with them and slowly built self-esteem by learning more about my body and being ok with being uncomfortable!!!
Sucks right?! But no, I’m glad I learned to be ok with myself and embrace who I am.
Later on they went to good use and I breastfeed all my 3 children for over a year. (I am extremely proud of this! ) I appreciate the functionality of my breasts my children are happy,healthy and I saved myself loads of money by not using formula.
Now that they have served their purpose, I am considering getting them reduced because they I still caused me so much back pain.
I never liked my breasts, but I appreciate what they are because I’m so proud of what they have done for me and my babies. And it forced me to not define myself by my looks.
I have learned to have peace with my natural body. ❤
I lived as a boy for a year when I was 13.
I grew out of it.
Thank goodness that was the 80s, because if I'd been a teen these days... I shudder to think of how I could have ended up.
I thought I was the opposite sex when I was small;I actually had Complex PTSD.
That green hair...
I just can't with these people anymore
I see the green hair a lot these days
I know, right? The colored hair used to be fun, but now it’s just a red flag to stay far away from this person.
And the nose ring.
Let's not judge people on their hair colour. I agree with 99% of Arielle's videos, I am not at the extreme left of the political spectrum, and I like having green hair from time to time. To me, it's fun to experiment with my hair. That's it.
I think if more gay people speak out against this like you it will make a bigger impact… and I totally stand with any queer people that want to divest or distance themselves from this tragedy
I agree, tho it can be hard because some of them really lean hard onto trying to ostracize and shame dissenters. And if you’re someone like me, who is very left leaning and a member of the LGBT demographic, it’s preeeeeeetty intimidating to start speaking up. But I do think it’s the only way to break the hold this group (the ultra whack radical types) has right now.
This child in the intro is incredibly sad to me. When did it become cool to not hide yer insanity. The weirdo in blue shirt NEEDS to just stop. I feel like I see people w out ONE HUMAN friend... Makes me wanna cry
Always appreciate your perspective. I'm a 70 year old "cis" male
I hate that term.
@@SmittySSTSdon’t worry, the word cis is just a way of marginalizing normal people 😂
You are so right as always, this world needs a whole lot more people like you speaking out and bringing this out, love your channel!
Puberty sucks. And body insecurities are normal.
There's no such thing as being in the "wrong body."
Time for adults to take the conversation back.
Thank you very much for pointing out the hypocrisy
I'm a 3x cancer patient. All that chemo + a stem cell transplant has wrecked my body. It tanked my testosterone. I spoke with my doctor over months about getting on testosterone since there are risks. How can some doctors be ok with this?
Jeeze... its been forever since Arielle's video's have shown up in my feed!! Finally, somehting good to watch. :)
There is a push at some schools not to tell any parent about their children.
The next 15 years or so will be particularly sad because so many of these kids are autistic. Definitely don't have any data on how that will come out but I imagine it will be heartbreaking.
Yeah... There was also an earlier, MUCH larger study that found out that these "gender-confused" people were about 4x more likely to have something else going on, like depression, bipolar etc. 4x more likely on EVERYTHING
Most of these kids claim to be autistic because it's just another quirk they can add to their victim resume. And the criteria for being autistic has been broadened so much that even a huge portion of the people who've been diagnosed with it aren't actually what we would've considered autistic 10 years ago
I have told every child that I have raised and we are well into the double digits of children that have been given to me to raise because their parents couldn't handle it, step children, and my own biological.... As soon as puberty hits and they start getting all weird and Moody I tell them repeatedly sometimes daily you are just finding your feet. I promise baby you're going to find your feet it's going to be all right you're going to find your feet. Within two-three years every single one of them found their feet. Only one took a little bit longer than that and I can't blame him because is on the autism spectrum and was the victim of severe severe bullying. And it was amazing as soon as they all found their feet they found their voice. Not only did they start to figure out who they were but they were able to start standing up for themselves. It's called puberty every adult human has gone through it to one level or another.
Social media, distant or weak parents and certainly the medical community have a lot to answer for. When I was growing up in the early seventies, we often turned to our friends and found we were all going thru much of the same things. Now these kids turn to weirdo's on tiktok and look for quick fixes to issues that will take a few years to resolve themselves.
You know
how to frame the truth, an under appreciated talent today. Keep on keeping on!
this should be criminal!
I seriously don't understand why we can't just have everyone wait till 18. I had to wait yeah it was miserable. I couldn't leave my house for 3 years from how depressed and anxious I became from my dysphoria. I just because I didnt want people to see me as something I wasn't. I still graduated highschool just fine. But honestly I'm glad I waited. I'm way stronger now and can put up with almost anything. I still have to graduate college first before I can get back on it. But there's so many issues with it and children aren't fully developed. When I was 10 I thought I was a dragon but grew out of it so whos to say that wont happen with these kids.
I think that social media should be banned for kids 18 and under. Those of us who grew up in the early to mid 90s you could say where lucky. We didn’t have UA-cam or TikTok etc, or the internet that we have now. I think if kids where banned from social media and had proper health care etc, we wouldn’t see kids being convinced they where trans, when all they needed was health care.
If someone had asked me that question at 11 I would have most certainly said I hate my body, hate puberty and wished I was a boy. I wore shorts/jeans and baggy Tshirts and i hated my school dress uniform with a passion. From what i have seen this is very common and normal among tween-teen girls. By 24 I was perfectly happy to be a woman. I am a straight married woman with 3 grown kids. Thank God nobody was selling us hormones back in the 70's and 80's. Weed maybe but not hormones.
Thank you for your straight-forward, common-sense, science- backed commentary.
My son is trans. Just decided it at the age of 45 or so. He has no friends. He is so intractable that he alienates anyone and everyone, including every roommate in every living situation he's had. No one wants to be friends with him. He treats us, his family like crap. His favorite thing to say is "Stop talking." Then he blocks us. I fear that he will end up a suicide statistic.
I'm so sorry. That sounds like a nightmare.
All that is a sign of men tal llness but these people don’t like truth. I’m sorry your son is going through that. Hopefully he seeks out help. Even adults can fall victim to this ideology. All I can say is, don’t be afraid to have them committed if it starts looking like he’ll go in that direction. But also, stay safe.
Take him out to the country and let the good air heal him
No friends means his only interaction with the world is the internet.
Most spaces & social media are woke bubbles: shittok, insta,facebook, reddit are all pushing CRT...
Honestly, a LOT of mental health and behavior issues stem from our gut biome being out of balance. Doctors are just paid socially acceptable drug dealers who know virtually nothing about healing. Prior to committing your son to an insane asylum or dismissing his anti-social behavior as him not wanting to be around people, researching what foods heal would be the best place to start...if you want to help and he is willing to be helped.
I actually blame Social Media COMPANIES for a lot of this Trans stuff for not allowing discussion on the issue. Tik Tok will ban you just for putting forth an anti-LGBTQ view point. I hope to God one day, we are gonna look back on the period between ~2015 to say 2030 and say, "What the ever living fuck were they thinking?"
I wish we could keep the L, G and B out of this madness.
The medical experimentation that has been going on is Obscene 😢!
Yup, genital mutilation disguised as affirming care. How did these surgeries get approved so quickly within the last few years? All on purpose
The seriousness of just "affirming" someone's self delusions can't be overstated.
As someone who has dealt with anxiety and depression my entire 52 year life, I needed therapists who dispelled my assertions that I was useless, unloved, unlovable, and wouldn't be missed if I self-deleted.
My brain was telling me these things that were untrue, and had my therapist simply "affirmed" these beliefs, I would have never lived past 18. My parents, friends & family would have been devastated, because I was loved, I was cherished, I just couldn't feel it because my brain was lying to me.
Instead, they challenged my beliefs & made me do the work of challenging my assumptions and thinking clearly.
Telling these kids who are confused about their bodies that cutting off body parts will solve their mental health problems is no different than telling someone who is anorexic that continuing to starve yourself will solve your mental self-image issues.
The people who push this on unstable children are preying upon their emotions & are more F-d up than the kids, but as adults they bear all the responsibility but none of the accountability.
we do it everyday with religion /shrug
actually, they proved a lot of 'gender clincs' literally withheld the negative side effects as a way to encourage new people to get on HRT.
When did we start believing Identity confusion was something to be proud of instead of something to be explored in therapy?
Always enjoy your perspectives, Arielle.
REQUEST - would you mind giving me a 360 of your head?? I want to show my hairdresser your haircut! Is it a shag? It’s kinda 80s, but it’s so flattering on you! And I want it 😊
I don't have IG but I see that Arielle does; you may want to check out her posts to see if there's some good photos/videos for you to show your stylist 😊
9:54 I think being far less or even not being on social media and the internet would help a lot - not only regarding the trans trend.
Also I am convinced that a stable surrounding (friends, family) who really has your best interest in mind would help a lot too. I strongly believe that talking about your issues and finding a non-medical-solution for it is one of the best ways. And if that isn't enough then you should reach out to a therapist who can be trusted.
Good morning! Thanks for the Sunday video ❤
Please, consider posting the link to the Netherlands' study. Thank you! I don't know what your background is but I have watched several of your videos and I find your arguments very common sense grounded. Keep it up, if it turns at least one kid or one parent off the path to sterility and life-long medication it would be worth it.
Self confidence makes a difference
I think they need something to occupy them - something hard. Something that shows them how unimportant this other crap is.
Some of them probably also need therapy. Not shame. Not bullying. Compassion. Empathy. Good advice, and direction, from strong role models, perhaps also with therapy.
That's what crazy though because if they do go to therapy, how can we be sure that therapist can be trusted and is intellectually honest and won't just "affirm" whatever they say? The industry has been taken over so it seems like they're trapped in a way
A college of mine, had so much self hate, that they decided to try T.. They were on it for 3 months, now the college has been sick from work for 2 years.. I guess the T caused more then it helped.
The second... person bothers me. Why do these lunatics always talk in such an exaggerated childish way? It's so off putting to watch.
Because they're not trying to appeal to us adults. They're trying to appeal to children! It's sick!
Almost a year ago, I responded to a detransitioners video identifying as a liberal with serious concerns about transitioning children. Almost 100 people commented, the majority hostile comments directed at me. I was merely attempting to open the question up for healthy discussion and debate. All that I had expressed was concern, I did not take a hard line. Comments in the majority of cases were vicious, and go on to this day. You are very brave in exposing the facts.
I love your honesty and humor. Keep up your outstanding work.
