I wrote this poem at 2:10 AM today to describe what it’s like being the mom of a gender-dysphoric child.

The lioness pursues her prey.

The vulture stole her cub away

and for this crime he’ll surely pay

forever and a hellish day.

The foolish cub, the victim here,

was too unwise to shed a tear

and too naive to gasp in fear

when hovering, evil shade appeared.

The youthful dupe, she had the gall

to be annoyed that she might fall

from the clutch of death’s dark squall

to her protector’s caring paw.

The child was saved, though desert heat

conspired with greed to love unseat

and halfway did its plot complete

when thwarted by love’s greatest feat…

a mother’s sacrifice.

Amazing, this was written four years ago, and it sounds like it fits into today's agenda. The WPATH experts are cowards. They will not stand up and tell the truth, or be honest that they made mistakes, or admit that they are not trans experts - because if they did, then they could stop this war on children immediately! I do not forgive them either. Shame on them, on all of them. Karma is coming. Accountability is coming. And hopefully, prison time is coming.

"You said, “There's a little bit of 'yeah that's so cool. Yeah, I kind of want to do that, too'”. "

Now, there is a pull out line.

WPATH was a fringe group of loons at first. I used to think that "trans" began getting real traction around 2014, but now I believe that the disordered were working for at least 10 years before that to take down real doctors/medicine who did not agree to their demands.

Dr. Chester W. Schmidt replaced Dr. McHugh (see https://couragerc.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/TransgenderSurgery.pdf) as director of the Department of Psychiatry for Johns Hopkins Medicine. Dr. Schmidt is on record as not being a "GAC" true believer:

"“Some people consider it mutilating. And, of course, the scientific side of it is pretty damn weak,” said Chester Schmidt, M.D., one of the founders of the Sexual Behaviors Consultation Unit at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine."

I believe there was a long and concerted effort by the loons to take people like them down:

"“Chester William Schmidt, Jr. (born 1934) is an American psychiatrist, one of several people at Johns Hopkins involved in the repression of trans people through psychiatry.”" from pro-loon site:

“Chester W. Schmidt, Jr. vs. transgender people”

Of course, doctors like Schmidt and McHugh are not against their patients. They want actual care rather than giving into the mentally disordered demands.

Those podcasts are a tough listen. Of course they KNOW exactly what has been going on and yet they feign there is a way forward. WPATH's origins are the perverted founders of the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association ('79). They began taking the darkest of Alfred Kinsey's (1940s) human sexuality studies/ perversions mainstream. The filth is now fully entrenched in all aspects of culture affecting the youngest in society. There is nothing redeemable about this farce of an organization that has attracted sick minds to further social engineering goals.

Judith Reisman and Quentin Van Meter have exposed the roots of the madness. The roots need to be killed for all its tentacles to loosen their grip on America's youth.

Yes they KNOW. WPATH knows, and here in South Africa our very own PATHSA knows, and the Southern African HIV Clinicians Society knows. But they don't seem to know yet, that we, us Pitts, know too. Not yet, anyway

I’m not aware of any SCOTUS case that can affect malpractice law, which is state-level and also governed by the patient-doctor contractual relationship. That said, as the tide turns in the culture, juries are less likely to defer to fraudulent “standards of care.”

I so hate “standard of care”.

To me the concept is a an empty excuse for doctors who are stupid, incompetent or just plain criminal.

I was just speaking of this , this am. The Therapist with WPATH credentials looks so World renowned & "they" portray they are the experts even though deep inside our instincts scream something is not right. Yet, we are trying to figure out in real time what is happening, what do I do? All therapist & Doctors are pushing one sided and God forbid you have a different political opinion-what the consequences could be. The child & Therapist view the Parent as extremist and eventually "no contact"

When my husband was asked by his PCP about his emotional state, he confessed to feeling distressed about his daughter “transing” and the doctor wrote in his chart that he had adjustment disorder. This was upsetting to my husband, because he felt like it is a normal reaction to the situation, not a disorder. He has found a new doctor.

Brilliantly written. Awful, all of them. This entire thing is a sham that must be exposed. I just hope it is done in a way that people can’t point fingers at the current administration and call them bigots. This is a complete medical and psychological scandal that must be dealt with swiftly, but in today’s climate, the concern is that many will dig in deeper to protect trans rights. We need sanity and clear heads.

Everyone who opposes "gender affirmative care" will be called a bigot by gender cult members, and the current administration has already gotten a lot of that.

As we gather more power and evidence of harm perhaps the cult will lose its ability to destroy peoples' lives. I predict that the overwhelming majority of its mostly young members will move on from this fad to another one, like adolescents always do when the fashion gets old and boring. When that occurs, they will act like the previous drama never happened, because for them it won't matter anymore. It might be challenging to be able to keep a spotlight on all the injured people who are the collateral damage of what was a romp through the park for most of the perpetrators.

It’s time for us all to stop living in fear of labels from those whose goal is to destroy our credibility. Stick with truth.

SCOTUS seems to be getting closer and closer to allowing detransitioners to sue their doctors and win. The butchers are running scared.

Hyperbolic of me to say but I think these people should be in jail for treating other people’s children like social and scientific experiments
