Welcome to Part 2 of this video series:
The Power of Dysphoria & Compassionate Reasons Why Parents Should Have Gender Dysphoric Youth Wait Until Adulthood to Medically Transition But Probably Won’t.
If anyone hasn’t watched part 1, part 1 states the truth that there will be significant numbers of inappropriate medical transitions of gender dysphoric minors who are likely lesbian, gay, and bisexual now due to the rising popularity of pediatric medical transition. These experimental medical protocols are quite intense and have serious side effects most people are not aware of. So I recommend viewing the first video that covers side effects such as interfering with identity development, sterility, destroyed sexual response, cognitive effects, and other health effects that result due to proliferation of gender clinics everywhere, that are administering hormone blockers right at puberty and offering hormones and surgeries underage.
This video will be briefer but cover a few important points to go over before delving into the data and real-world examples of why bad medical transition outcomes on mostly LGB young people are inevitable.
I’m going to show a picture that may make some people mad because people get angry if you show pictures of what medical transition does to the human body, despite trans people posting their selfies everywhere themselves:
This is an open source picture, not pulled from a personal account, which I agree, isn’t right. I want to make it clear that I am not mocking this person. I can understand this as someone who experienced some gender dysphoria as a tween and had body dysmorphic disorder level, body hatred obsessions when I was a young adult. If some medical treatment would have alleviated that, I would have taken it because obsessive body hatred is torture.
This is phalloplasty. You can see the extensive scaring due to the flesh graphs used to make a phallic-like structure. Phalloplasty is a very dangerous surgery now involving multiple lawsuits where people wound up on colostomy bags and almost died. Necrotized flesh, fistulas, nerve damage, urine leakage, and life-threatening infections are risks with this surgery. One FtM had to have 31 surgeries as a result of complications from phalloplasty. And to be blunt, the aesthetic results of phalloplasty and even the less complex surgeries are not good. I am making a point here about the power and intensity of gender dysphoria. And I’m doing it for a reason.
This demonstrates how much this person deserves compassion for suffering so much for being female. This demonstrates this person’s obsessive drive to present as a man.
This demonstrates how much this person, who was probably part of a supportive lesbian scene, with women who want to date butch and androgynous lesbians, doesn’t want to be a lesbian. The option of man is more desirable with FtM transition videos, with posted images of stained surgical bandages, and mastectomy scares getting hundreds of thousands of likes.
And it demonstrates why nothing will stop this. Not radical feminism, or lesbian feminism, or “smashing gender,” or good therapy, or changing the world, or any other ideals some gender ideology critical people have about how to solve this level of self-disgust and desire to mimic heterosexual mating and presentation standards, which is what homosexual transsexualism is. We had a female empowerment, lesbian-feminist community for years. And instead, many same-sex attracted females are flocking to do this. And it’s a bitter pill to swallow for those of us who love gender nonconforming, same-sex attracted biological females.
You will not come between these people and the surgeries and hormones they want without a very aggressive backlash. Nothing will stop someone with this level of motivation when doctors can make truck-loads of money and fulfill a Messiah complex or a God complex or both all at the same time. And you won’t stop it when insurance companies and now Medicaid are being manipulated by the “medical transition or suicide” narrative into paying for it, as no one wants to be blamed for someone’s suicide.
And there are people who have this level of despisement for their sexed body as a child, and it doesn’t go away. And it won’t go away for all even in a gender eutopia society some people say we should create.
I have a family member who worked in the Peace Core in Palau, a Micronesian island nation that is one of the most stunningly beautiful places in the world. Palau is a matrilineal culture, and like some other islander cultures such as in Samoa, Palauans accept extremely effeminate males. My family member knew such males, and she said no one treated them badly. Their attitudes towards them as kids was “oh you’re a little baclat, go dance with the girls.”
Even in this tolerant environment, one of them sought transition upon learning feminization surgery was possible in Guam. And now, little feminine male children will grow up everywhere seeing glamorous trans models, highly modified by plastic surgery, hormones, and makeup on the cover of Cosmo magazine as the standard of what effeminate male children should aspire to be. Nothing is going to stop people from doing this in our scalpel and pills world where “my body my choice” is the mantra, and it is lucrative to exploit people’s desire to be something else whether it’s not to look too old, or too dark or too light, or too Jewish, or too flat-chested.
But if anyone tries to interfere with medical transition for the massive increases in minors being given hormone blockers, cross-sex hormones, and yes surgeries, they will face the trans mom army:
The trans mom army will aggressively go after anyone who wants to come between their children and the puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and mastectomies and vaginoplasties their children want, often desperately.
The trans mom army will tirelessly lobby and do media interviews because the activist psychologists told them their children will commit suicide if they don’t do this, even if it isn’t true. The trans mom army will scoff at the idea their child could desist. The trans mom army has to believe it’s doing the only right thing to do.“
Because if this isn’t the right thing to do, it is a mistake so severe that a generation of gender-nonconforming minors will be unnecessarily castrated and sterilized for the rest of their lives based on decisions made as eleven-year-old children or maybe even 5-year-old children when the social transition is begun. And, that is too horrifying a reality for a parent to admit is possible:
And while I believe most parents are just doing their best and want to protect and advocate for their child, please do be concerned that you see some parents doing this who are clearly homophobic, or are attention seekers, or have proxy Munchausen tendencies, or have cluster B personality disorders. Anyone who follows this knows exactly what I am talking about. And there is some data to support this claim. You will find citations for everything I am saying in the video description.
There are trans-identified youth so motivated to transition that they will seek hormones on the black market or run away from home and prostitute themselves if you don’t give them hormones in a more structured setting. So, I don’t think this compulsion to transition and the incentive for health professionals to make it happen will stop. And many say they are truly happier for it, and I’m not interested in patronizing them. I will take issue with the people who try to silence concerns about minors, often with libel and threats. And with proper mental health support, a healthier culture around gender, and time, less young people would do this. That picture is becoming clear. And no one has the right to bully, attack, and try to destroy gay and bisexual people or anyone else who points out this truth, which is what trans activism does.
There are loving, ethical, and compassionate reasons to argue against early reinforcement of gender dysphoria and the use of hormone blockers even for youth who will persist in a trans identity. There are good reasons they should transition as adults. My opinion is the use of puberty blockers is child abuse. This is an opinion shared by some trans people.
Here is a quote from Scot Newgent, an FtM and former lesbian who wrote a gut-wrenching piece on how anti-gay attitudes among the girlfriend’s family affected Scott’s decision to transition called “Lesbian Devil to Straight Man Saint.” The girlfriend is now gone, and Scott almost died from the phalloplasty:
Gender Dysphoria is real, and some benefit from medical transitioning, but not many and not enough for this new medical revenue channel they have created with your children. We have to give kids time to grow up and understand who and what they are.
We DO NOT want homosexual children medically transitioning because of homophobia.
Blair White one of the most popular trans YouTube stars on The Rubin Report (22:40):
I’m definitely against children transitioning. I think it is a horrible decision to let a child make a life changing decision and to be sterile because that is a consequence of transitioning so young. You can’t have kids. And just the drugs they go on, there’s a lot of problematic things that go along with that (discusses micro penis issue I will talk about in the next video)…And puberty blockers are hailed as the most important thing to go on…Trans activists for lack of better terms just completely gloss over this and make it seem that it’s something it’s not.
If I had a cross-sex identified child, I would love them and support them in their gender non-conformity. I would make sure they were safe at school. I would encourage a body acceptance model with medicalization as a last resort. And they would know whatever they decided they would be loved, but they would know the truth, that transition is no panacea. And transition has negative health consequences that a pubescent body and brain should not be subjected to in order to have a prettier feminine face.
As a parent, my job would be to help them to learn emotional regulation to prepare for their life’s challenges.
Because these dysphoric young people are growing up now are more sexually confused and gender confused and angrier, I believe, than ever:
They are confused and bitter that everybody doesn’t hold the same world view about things like larger and stronger “trans girls” being able to dominate girls’ sports teams, the views they see on queer Tumblr, or hear at the gender conferences they and their parents attend. Many think they are owed romantic and sexual validation from others based on their gender identity. They think that straight men will see them as women, which the vast majority do not.
A friend of mine was screamed at and accused of bigotry by one merely for politely declining to dance at a club in Seattle. And they become angry and confused that others do not cater their sexual orientation and view of reality to a gender ideology that says “trans girls are literally girls” and “trans lesbians are lesbian.” These young people are celebrated in the rejection of their own physical body due to identity and then validated in getting righteously angry when someone else rejects that very same body the trans person themselves has rejected. It’s not a rationally consistent worldview. These are the truths that parents need to tell their kids compassionately.
And the therapists and doctors deserve much of the blame for this. The health professions and the new validation obsessed culture is doing a horrible job in preparing these youths for adult life by chanting “trans women are women” and throwing hormone blockers, and pills, and syringes, and scalpels at them, expecting it to solve all of their problems. It’s not. And it’s creating a lot of conflict within the LGBT population and between the LGBT population and mainstream society. And I recommend addressing it unless you want more and more people to hate this self-righteous, biology denying trans movement, which more and more are every day.
Parents who would want to take a slower approach and allow a natural process to form their growing brain and body and create more realistic expectations in their kids are increasingly losing custody of their children who will be put on hormone blockers and cross-sex hormones, often with little mental health exploration with pediatric "my body my choice" becoming the norm in law.
Another argument for not medicalizing dysphoric minors is that you can no longer justify preventing other extreme body modifications for minors. There are increasing numbers of girls who want labia reduction surgeries because they want "tidy" looking labias they know boys see in porn videos. Doctors are doing these surgeries on them as minors with their parents' consent. Why should they have to get their parents' consent? Labia reduction surgeries are significantly less dangerous then vaginoplasties or even hormone blockers.
There have been more stories in the media about body integrity disorder. These people feel a compulsion to cut off their limbs or blind themselves. The people who have this have gone through with procedures, with the help of professionals, to obtain the results they want. They say they are happier, and the intense discomfort has been eased. If someone identifies as an amputee or a blind person, has great distress at having to keep their limb or vision, and report great relief from having their limb amputated, why not do this to a minor who wants this?
Why is GD distress more valid than body integrity disorder distress?
One trans identity now out of dozens is called neutrois. This is a graphic from a study by the LGBT youth organization, The Trevor Project. You can see some of the youths surveyed identify as neutrois:
Trevor Project “The National Survey on LGBT Youth Mental Health 2019”
A category under this umbrella is nullo. Nullos want to remove all of their genitalia to be no gender at all. There are surgeons who indeed are removing entire penises and testicles and removing clitorises and sewing up vaginas for people who want to be nullos.
If a 15-year-old male wants to be a nullo, and they are doing nullo surgeries on adults, and the mantra now is there is no wrong way to be trans. And all identities are valid. And they are doing double mastectomies on underage females for nonbinary identities (which they are)- why not do nullo surgeries on minors? There is no logical reason to argue nullo is less valid than MtF because there isn't much difference in the extremity of the two surgeries. Watch the first video if you do not already know.
A trans mom who has put her child front and center to promote underage medical treatment circulated a picture of her feminine, likely hormone blocked kid with a sign that said, "My body my choice." Then my "body my choice" should apply to nullo surgeries, limb amputation, vaginoplasty surgeries, labia reduction surgeries, tattoos, and sex with adults. Some of the academics who created modern gender ideology that is fueling a lot of the philosophy behind this have engaged in pedophilia apologia. Judith Butler and Pat Califia are two of them. Do we really want, as a society, for "my body my choice" to be a mantra for children?
While I care very much about youth who will not outgrow GD and what is best for them, focusing on the importance of protecting LGB youth who may desist from being dysphoric and avoiding potential LGB transition regretters is the unapologetic focus of THIS group of videos as many people are frankly acting like they don’t matter at all. How often do you hear the HRC, or Lambda Legal, or the National Center for Lesbian Rights, or PFLAG, or GLSEN, or the Trevor project, or the Advocate, or Out Magazine, or Autostraddle or any LGBT organization or media site worry about them? You don’t, ever. And you likely won’t. LGB people who may have struggled with gender issues have human rights as well. And we need to not apologize for feeling invested in the “trans kid” issue.
In Part 3, which I will put out soon, will be about how it will be impossible to prevent transition regret among people who transition while still cognitively immature as executive function doesn’t fully evolve until age 25. And I will talk about how there isn’t really a clear line between trans and gender-nonconforming gay/lesbian/bisexual in children, tweens, teens, young adults, or even fully-grown adults, which will result in at least a certain degree of LGB eugenics. And eugenics is the right word here.
Thank you for listening.
