Excellent satire! For those following the SJSU women’s volleyball drama (they have a biological male ringer on the team), apparently most of the actual women on the team are against him being there!
Brilliant piece. To think that just a few years ago this would've been classed as far fetched science fiction ,but now it's reality propped up by governments and the legislators !! Sometimes it feels as though WE ( the grassroots common sense people ) are the only people who can still see that " The Emperor has no clothes "!! . Thank you for this. Keep fighting. Truth will win in the end ,but these genderists need to face the horrific consequences of their lunacy. Poor kids ,being led like lambs to the slaughter while these sociopaths cheer from the sidelines .😭 Despicable !!
I have a hunch there are more common sense people than it appears. But we are split on which side lies more, and that’s why our elections can’t solve many issues. For instance, I recently read that 84% of Americans across party lines favor voter ID to vote. And yet it’s not happening despite a strong mandate from the people.
If you were born in the wrong body shouldn’t you get a whole new body, not just the sexy parts? What if your feet are too small? Ever heard of Man hands? You know, the mayor of New York once wanted to ban Trans Fat. It didn’t work so it’s ok to be trans fat. I think the gender ghouls could throw in a liposuction for the Transfatties and make even more money.
"The gender unicorn spoke to you in a dream?" Ha, love it, what a perfect summary!
"Adults who encourage and celebrate children’s unhappiness with their sexed bodies are perpetrating great harms and injustices against children because they are cementing in confused and delusional thinking and making them promises that cannot be kept.
Agreeing with those who have bought into a faulty belief system that tells them that external changes are an easy fix for complex problems is just plain wrong. There is never a “wrong” body for any of us." https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/be-thankful-for-what-youve-got
Nice post; the sarcasm is subtle, at least to me but I like it. You drove the point…
I would love to have my daughter read this but I’m afraid she’ll be ticked off and offended. She’s one smart cookie (I love her to death) and she’ll be so defensive that she’s gonna tell me (again) about what she’s read (extensively) supporting her stance. Yes, she’s entrenched in this gender cult; my trans-identified kid.
I’m heartbroken, devastated and overly stressed (my life) BUT I go on because I love my kid and as always, I pray to God every chance I get that she desists and not go down this dangerous rabbit hole.
Apropos for Halloween. Indeed, “gender medicine” is a horror.
With Germany’s outrageously evidence-ignorant approach to “gender affirmation” being rolled out soon, I honestly feel like I’m one of the last humans in “Invasion of the Body Snatchers,” except the “pod people” are chemically poisoning and doing cosmetic sexual surgical botch-jobs on children and adolescents. Blood, gore, amputations, mutations, loss of function, children consigned forever to eunuch status, aggressively pruned bonsai lesbians with beards… it’s body horror on steroids. Literally.
I’m putting my real name and face on my thoughtful dissent here in British Columbia, Canada. No more pseudonyms and self-censorship for me! Thankfully, my only real vulnerabilities here are my social connections, which is ironic, since I recently did a successful TEDx talk about how essential social connections are to human health, with around 650,000 views (“Is the cure for loneliness hiding in your closet?”).
In the video’s comments section, people say I’m helping them, inspiring them, and that I’m “the world’s nicest lady.” But what if the world’s nicest lady turns out to be a “vile, hateful, transphobic bigot?” I guess we’ll find out.
Whatever alien gender ideological spores have infected British Columbia, they seem to have taken hold in Germany as well. I predict more abuses of medical ethics before enough lawsuits curb the enthusiasm of medical insurers.
Children in BC can access our medical system, with all of its “gender affirming” wonders, at any age— without their parents. Age limits on “gender affirming surgery” are a matter of agreement between the young patient and their surgeon. If the surgeon decides their patient is a “mature minor,” even at 12, 13, 14, it’s game on for the double mastectomy. Likewise for blocking puberty.
Convinced you’re “trans” at age 12? Your BC school counsellor can help facilitate your access to puberty-blocking drugs without your parents finding out, because if those bigots aren’t “affirming” you, the “authorities” make sure you can get this “life-saving treatment.” What makes this permanent loss-of-function cosmetic sex trait modification “life-saving?” Because, dear child, we predict you are already “likely” to kill yourself if you are “trans,” and if you are denied the opportunity to warp your flesh and organs to superficially match your “embodiment goals,” well, it’s a sure death from suicide. Ergo, denying “care” to “trans kids” is GENOCIDE. That’s what the counsellor will tell you and your parents, together, as you all sit in the room: “Would you rather have a living son, or a DEAD DAUGHTER?”
My answer to that, since I’m a stickler for details, is a series of questions:
When, exactly, does this suicide occur? The moment the child is told no? Do they make a beeline to the closest window and dive out of it? Or is it two days later? Two weeks later? If it happens that fast, the patient should be kept in the psych ward, on suicide watch, and encouraged with therapy toward self-acceptance, and acceptance of biological reality. To see their parents’ safeguarding of their young body, mind, and future as protection and care, not bigotry. (This, of course, is NOT what happens to kids who claim suicidality here. They’re given their requested drugs instead.)
Do these kids commit suicide two months later? Two years later? Two decades later? Pinpoint for me exactly when “trans” people commit suicide because they couldn’t engage in medically-facilitated loss-of-function extreme body modification. And if they do tragically end their lives at some point down the road, how you can ascertain with certainty that the precipitating factor for that desperate act was not mental illness, but the hardship of being denied permanent body modifications that foreclose on sexual function and fertility. (My intuition tells me that being consigned to a life of sterility, without sexual satisfaction, rife with pain, urogenital infections, “corrective” surgeries, cognitive dissonance from living a lie, and limited ability to bond with partners might be more likely to drive one to suicidal depression, and there are some data to corroborate this.)
So what is more horrifying? Offering “gender-affirming care” to minors, or withholding it?
Please let this nightmare of malignant narcissism and psychopathically warped “empathy” end soon.
Suicidal feelings seems to be a very common thing for detransitioners at least - those poor kids who wake up to the truth a few years after their medical “treatment”, and find their bodies permanently disfigured and nonfunctional. If you ever read posts in the “detrans” subReddit, your heart will break.
The biggest issue right now is that these kids do not dare to come forward sharing their stories more publicly, because the moment they do, they get viciously attacked by the trans community that formerly supported them. This allows the practice to go on, based on outdated and incorrect studies.
I can’t bring myself to read detrans reddit. It’s too hopeful that someday my son will be in that group. So if what you say is true, this is so significant. All of this hinges on evidence. The truth must speak. If this is not working, it must be stopped
Are they really happy? Once they do it ? Really & truly? That’s the crux of it for me. If my son was truly happy, why doesn’t he share his happiness with his loving parents. (We are estranged). Seems to me, their circle becomes smaller & smaller. Relationships are so damaged. Transition doesn’t solve anything. And to your point, about stating your name, you are right. I have been hiding from everyone (pain). At first it was a huge stress reliever. But it’s not living. Loneliness is a terrible thing, it is unhealthy. Man is a social animal for sure. No one benefits from this. It’s insane
You are definitely not alone. There are lots of us out here, quietly suffering, hoping that our kids will turn back before destroying their bodies and lives. Maybe see if there are parent support groups near you.
Indoctrination in K-12 schools and universities may be more organized and funded way beyond what any of us are prepared for. The activists and groups like CAIR are way ahead of us. Feminism & Lesbians seem to be a huge target. https://stamps.umich.edu/events/killjoys-kastle-unplugged
(I know, easier said than done. But at a recent college fair, I admitted to my teens that I’ve saved a lot for them and that college is “one choice” but if they do something else I consider productive post high school then they can still access the money. Things I’d likely consider productive would be some sort of job training, or possibly buying / stating a business. If they wanna travel, I’ll cheer them on but let them pay for it.)
"Your self-diagnosis and choice of a specific treatment saves us gender doctors the trouble of having to think." This whole piece is so close to the truth, it's scary. Do our professional medical organizations really want to embrace Halloween ghouls and justify doing so?!
Perfect for Halloween! Please let us wake up from this nightmare. ☹️ Also, don't forget that if you're an old guy we can "transform" you into a little girl so you can change in their locker rooms and go swimming with them. Because all you need to "prove" that you're "trans-age" (or whatever) is feelings!

Unfortunately suicide rate is much higher post-transition. That’s when the lie is laid bare with no going backwards.

1. Homeschool
2. Skip college in favor of a vocation
Defund the radicals’ access to our kids.

The American society of plastic surgeons which is not recommending elective surgeries on minors has more integrity than the AMA and APA!!!
And AAP, and SAHCS
