We’re a nonpartisan nonprofit called Child & Parental Rights Campaign that’s trying to protect children and vulnerable young adults from medical transition they will later regret. Several states that passed child protecting laws are being sued. We need detransitioners and parents in Indiana, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Tennessee immediately. Georgia, Texas, and Utah will be next.
"Rafferty was quoted recently as saying that a "child's sense of reality" is the "navigational beacon to orient treatment around." - Children think their teddy bears might be alive. It sounds like the pedophiles who say that the children wanted to have sex with them. Kids should not be restricted!
"The medical profession has wrestled with the significance of the Doctors Trial. For instance, to observe its 50th anniversary, the British Medical Journal printed a special issue (free downloads here). The lead article “War crimes and medical science” warned that the Nazi problems were “not unique to one place or time, and could happen here” and the trial “left us with a legacy we still shrink from confronting.” It pointed to contemporary problems in American medicine and warned “there will always be imperatives that threaten the professional values we profess to hold so dear” and “the profession of medicine carries within it the seeds of its own destruction.” Yes.
When the Doctors Trial ended on August 20, 1947, seven defendants were acquitted; nine were found guilty and sentenced to long prison terms; and seven were found guilty and hanged. Medical doctors in the most technically and ethically advanced society on earth were imprisoned or hanged for performing experimental procedures on human subjects without their informed consent—consent that the docs knew they needed. Think about that."
Children cannot consent to these experimental drugs and procedures. They are children.
I thought this was interesting:
"Still, doctors embraced eugenics with shocking enthusiasm and radicalism. They didn’t simply “go along” with Hitler, they were already so steeped in this quasi-scientific ideology that they were out ahead of Nazi politicians. “The German medical community set its own course in 1933. In some respects this course even outpaced the new [Nazi] government, which had to rein in the profession's eager pursuit of enforced eugenic sterilisations.”
(He continues, “In 1933 the convergence of political, scientific, and economic forces dramatically changed the relationship between the medical community and the government. That same convergence is occurring again [in 1996] and must be approached with great caution if medicine is to remain focused on the preservation of physical and medical integrity.”)
Well into the 20C, Germany’s rules were the most progressive on earth and the Nuremberg defendants scolded American and British counterparts you perform unethical experimentation, too. They had a point. In Allied countries the standards were less evolved. In Germany the standards had decades to evolve, doctors simply chose to break rules their fathers had written.
Much of this came of doctors and medical associations promoting their own economic and professional interests.
“More than half of all German physicians became early joiners of the Nazi Party, surpassing the party enrollments of all other professions." "
Also, see how in Germany (as now) "a skillful and humane institution, dedicated to helping people and society, that chose to be swept up in a combination of arrogance, greed, and the meeting of a radical medical ideology that thought it could give biomedical solutions to social problems with a radical political ideology that said okay."
"Gender" is crazy profitable biomedical "solution" in the US, see:
"U.S. Sex Reassignment Surgery Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Gender Transition (Male To Female, Female To Male), And Segment Forecasts, 2022 - 2030"
The whole aspect of the Ideology surrounding the concept of "Gender" being promoted by the state and to children through state schools where kids are encouraged to believe in things like how we all have a gendered soul inside of us that is separate from our sex - with some parents adopting new synthetic identities whole hog and some being lied to by schools about secret name and identity changes resonated with me as similar to how:
"True believers existed then as now. Some parents gladly offered their children to the plan; those who did not were kept in the dark and lied to. Like today. “Most German parents didn't realize what was going on until it was too late. Unlike the forced sterilization campaign, the euthanasia policy remained largely secret, with parents receiving letters declaring a false cause of death. In some cases, though, the parents actually supported the murder of their own children.” (Riley 2004, p.78) "The Fuhrer had granted us the mercy of killing our son."
We are not murdering them but we are sterilizing and maiming them. And they call it "Care" in America in the 21st century.
It's pure insanity that it has come to this point in the West. You guys need to read up on and contact the Swedish Parents Organisation that orgsnised and got Sweden to back track on 'gender affirming care'. Watch their video on YouTube called 'Trans Train' (it has 3/4 parts(. The Parents were very successful and they will be absolutely helpful in showing you how to very effectively go about this. If you aren't already in contact with them. Good luck!
Planned Parenthood Offers 'Puberty Parties' to Talk Sex With Minors
Texas' Planned Parenthood chapter is promoting its free "Summer Education Series." Valerie Muñoz reports the offerings – ranging from virtual sessions and sex ed camps to "period parties" – are focused on children as young as 9 years old.
The abortion provider's middle school "summer camp" is advertised as covering topics like gender and sexual identity, reproductive anatomy, and birth control.
“A group parading around claiming ‘abortion is healthcare’ or ‘gender is fluid’ has no business telling me or my kids what medically accurate information is,” said Brady Gray, the president of the Texas Family Project.
That actual 'women' participate in this evil, is beyond me. It gives this evil the face of respectability and hides the dark misogyny and fetish deviancy that is at the root of this aggressive, narcissistic & bullying movement.
You might find some support from the feminist organization WoLF (Women's Liberation Front). This group devotes large amounts of its time and resources to supporting state bills that ban the trans medicalization of children, by testifying and/or providing legal language and arguments that get incorporated into bills.
"The medical leash of hormone replacement therapy Children who are medically transitioned become permanent medical patients. "I am leashed to a medical provider. The best I can do is pick who holds the leash. The children who are being transitioned are being put on to a leash. They are typically starting the process with healthy bodies. But then our bodies are deliberately damaged. Why? For aesthetics. I'm unusual in that I'm vocal about my criticism of the system. I have heard from so many trans people that they would like to say something, but they are terrified that the people who hold their leashes will jerk on the reins. Planned Parenthood is one of the most generous of the leash-holders. "
Yes, absolutely. Cohn speaks publicly in favor of women-only spaces and sports and against transitioning of children. He frequently testifies in state houses on these two issues and has been instrumental in helping to pass legislation in Indiana (regarding sports) and Texas (against medicalization of children), for instance.
Here's an example of his intelligence and candor in respect of women's sports:
Great to see this. Sadly, resistance to trans ideology is being framed as a religious, racist, right-wing, transphobic movement but it's much the opposite of that.
It doesn't take someone religious to see that mutilating children is a bad thing. I'm hoping the messaging of this campaign doesn't feed into that narrative because parents from ALL faiths and cultures need to come together.
Gender Ideology is itself a cult religion. How can it be that the State is endorsing this religion? Like everything else with GI, definitions are turned upside down. I seek to get this religion out of the schools.. I do not seek a "religious exemption".
"Gender Ideology is a fundamentalist religion—intolerant, demanding strict adherence to doctrine, hell-bent on gathering proselytes. I do not here use the term “religion” metaphorically or lightly.
Induction into this religion begins with a baptism: the selection of pronouns and often a new name, greeted with all the celebration (and more) of a conversion. It evangelizes aggressively: through social media influencers, who claim to know a teen’s truest self better than her parents and to love that teen so much more than they ever could. Therapists, teachers, and school counselors play evangelist to numberless kids at American school.
There’s no physical evidence that any of us possesses an ethereal gender identity, of course. It may actually be disprovable; there is a good deal of evidence against it. No matter. The adherents take it on faith. The notion that each of us is born with a gender identity, utterly separable from our physiology, known only to us, imagines gender identity as the secular version of the ‘soul.’
Gender Ideology is policed by blasphemy laws – like those passed in California and New York, which assign criminal and civil penalties to healthcare workers who intentionally misgender patients and landlords who intentionally misgender tenants. And outside of statutory law, most social media services will quickly exile you if you’re caught blaspheming (ie. misgendering, deadnaming et al.). College campuses enforce these blasphemy laws with such smug severity, they are rarely violated. Much as the instances of public blasphemy in Mecca round down to zero.
Adherents to the gender orthodoxy reserve their greatest ire for apostates, “detransitioners,” those who once identified as ‘transgender’ before reversing course and resume identification with their biological sex. The level of ostracism and hatred detransitioners face in America today would be familiar to anyone who has tried to leave a close-knit orthodox faith community.
And, finally, Gender Ideology is full of holidays—one or two in every calendar month, except August. (No need for a celebration - it seems - when there is no school.) These are regarded with all the sanctity of religious festivals. As in, “I can’t believe Abigail would schedule her talk just before Pride Month.” All major institutions are expected – or is it compelled? – to celebrate Pride by changing their logos to incorporate the look of the Pride flag. They don’t do that for any other holiday – not even Christmas."
I’m from Texas born & raised have been praying fervently for my state as a follower of Jesus the Christ, conservative & Republican that abortion roe wade overturned and then last year praying medical transition for children be banned which just passed & signed by Governor Abbott. I pray at age 53 I never live in a democrat state and pray Gods blessing & grace over Texas. 🙏🙏
Thank you and Good Luck! I hope you note the tactics that Florida used, coming at the medicalized transition issue through the State Medical Board rather than just the legislature. Courts can much more easily strike down a state law when it isn't backed up by state medical policy.
Hopefully that can work in other states, though of course it depends on who has the power of appointments to the licensing boards.
I hope also you see the power of the scientific arguments in addition to the religious freedom arguments. Trans activists depend on confusing sex with "gender identity", which is scientifically inaccurate.
A simple legal policy distinction between sex and gender identity can also be used to maintain separate sports, bathrooms and facilities based on sex, and and will withstand any legal challenge, since distinctions based on sex are encoded in the law and have precedence in the Courts, and any Federal judge who tries to directly equate sex and gender identity on their own will get slapped down by the Supreme Court.
Thank you for fighting for us, our kids, and families!!! I pray God will bless your efforts and start moving in our country and world to stop this cult from the pain and destruction that is currently happening.
I hope people on this site will come forward to tell their stories to help! Their voices need to be heard, the laws need to be changed, the world needs to know the harm that affirmation has caused - we need to protect the innocent before it’s too late. I am praying for the truth to be told, for the victims to find their courage, for the wrong to be made right, and for the Men and Women who were groomed and lied to, to find peace and validation.
Thank you for reaching out to the Substack community. I pray you will find the individual stories that will help save children from this horror. I pray those individuals find peace.
I've tweeted about this new group. The more parental groups protesting about Trans, the better.
This article was published just today. It sounds like the AAP leaders have really steamrolled over their membership:
"The American Academy of Pediatrics sidelines formal proposal to revise Pediatric Medical Transition policy for the 4th consecutive year
Unfortunately, it seems that U.S. medical organizations have allowed politics to overshadow their commitment to evidence-based medicine.
