These cross sex hormones have effects that trans supported REFUSE to acknowledge. Years ago, I was put on a male hormone for a legitimate medical reason and within weeks I could tell it was whacking me out, and I stopped taking it. I also had a sister who could not take similar medications. We were ADULT FULLY FORMED FEMALES. Yeah.We need to STOP this madness! That’s

Bravo. We need voices like yours, hope you use your terrible experience to get something positive of all this. You are stating the naked truth that transgenderism is a cult basically as you mentioned the way another members of the cult around your son pressured him to stay in it. That is the way a cult works, isolating, lying and brainwashing instead of open discussion.

NO ONE IS TRANS. We must expose the members of this cult and not all the members of this cult are trans themselves, few of them are really deceived, they are sincere naive or gullible included, but the most of this cult are not, they are monsters! We need that them take accountability for each suffering member of the cult and for the ones are not more with us, that their deaths never be in vain. We must expose them and not allow them to talk with "alternative" words, and subtleties and sugar coat anything. We must speak authentically because they have blood in their hands. The hide behind their titles, and diplomas, and organizations, and hospitals and practices. When a parent is in this circumstance of their kids get into hormones and so they need to tell the "health professionals" -if something happens to my child I MAKE YOU DIRECTLY RISPONSiBLE- and make everybody responsible. They attacked us we don't defend ourselves we attack them back double stating the trues. Parents' fear is what took us to the place we are now so we have been "neutralized" since the get go. The mental condition of Gender dysphoria exists, it is legit! but have been jeopardized, kidnapped by ideologies that want the destruction of humans beings! Let's not fool ourselves more, sadly many innocent people are caught up in this.

Thank you so much. He was so lucky to have you, not giving in, not believing the lies, and staying strong for him and everyone else. You are a wonderful example of courage and you will be saving lives with what you're saying.

The last paragraph. I’ve always felt this to be the case but have always kind of avoided this maxim. I think it’s true though that no one is trans because to have an exception such as that is to immediately throw biological sex overboard. The question is whether or not affirmation of an adult who is aware of the consequences of medical intervention is a good thing. Does it really help ever, and even if it does are there important implications to consider such as health over happiness etc.

As Gavin Newsom continues his unrelenting push to be President, remember he supported the so called "Safety Act" which prohibits schools from requiring teachers to notify parents if their child has changed pronouns or gender identity. When he signed AB1955, Ca became the first state to interfere in parent-child relations and have schools usurp that responsibility.

This "death before detransition" chant is straight from the pit of hell, and completely diabolical.

This business of being mailed a code in order to post a comment doesn't work for me. I understand that everyone in the world seems to be under-employed and poor, but the advocacy work that we do becomes SEVERELY less effective when we put it behind a paywall, even if we lower that paywall for some. No one's opinion is important enough that anyone should have to pay for it, with the possible exception of true journalists who make a living at it.

I feel sorry for the young people who end up committing suicide, although it astonishes me that so many young people are so ready to kill themselves that everyone has to worry about them. I think what happens is this: The parents won't affirm the new trans identity, and so the young person looks to friends to affirm it. At some point, however, the young person realizes that he (or she, of course) isn't really trans and decides to detransition. But that doesn't solve everything. Admitting his mistake to his parents may be difficult for some of them. For others, they admit their mistake to their parents, but they still feel themselves in a "lost" place. The whole trans adventure results in the young person feeling somewhat alienated from everyone. They feel alienated from their parents, for whom they caused a lot of trouble and heartache, and they feel alienated from their affirming friends who are disappointed in them for detransitioning. On top of all that, the emotional problems that made them think they were trans are still with them, and that leaves them feeling hopeless. It's a sad place to be in.

Having said that, it seems I was made of sturdier stuff, and I sometimes find it hard to be sympathetic with young people who are so ready to call it quits. I've been suicidal repeatedly in my life, but I never did the deed. Now, at 75, I'm sick all the time but still hanging on. We are all reincarnating, and a physical life is a gift because it gives us an opportunity to deal with issues we need to resolve or conquer. Committing suicide is throwing the gift back in God's face.

I’m so so sorry for your loss… There are no words to adequately express all that I’m feeling after reading this, except that I hope and pray you and Robert’s mom can somehow find peace. This is an unimaginably horrific nightmare. I pray for my son everyday and fast every week that he will desist before he destroys his beautiful body and mind. His spirit is in there, but is being choked by this lie. 😢🙏🙏🙏

Those clinicians who removed "gender dysphoria" from the list of mental illnesses should be pilloried. Anyone who lives a life built entirely on the quicksand of artifice is clearly mentally unhinged.

And that the internet and real world are full of people who don't care about your kid but want to be seen as some sort of savior is beyond appalling. https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/the-cinderella-effect-another-way

Your story and that of your son is so tragic. I feel so sad for you. I can imagine how difficult it must be for anyone to detransition having seen the love bombing that came with my son declaring that he was trans. I don't know where he is. These new friendships are the cause, I believe, of him cutting himself off from me.

I literally just emailed the school board, school and state board about this!

I stated the news articles quoting how the shooter wanted to not be trans anymore and couldn’t, and the stranded relationship with his mother.

I brought up how a couple months ago in a phone conversation I was not being heard about my concerns and tried to get them to at least give an option for the children to opt out by putting a check box on the gender support plans saying I change my mind. I was told a hard NO. I asked if I could have that on my child’s own support plan (mind you who has a 504 for autism and adhd effecting decisions, planning and communication) again I was told NO.

I also brought up the many times I have addressed my concerns to all of them about how keeping secrets from loving parents causes a great harm to the relationship and damages the bond. But instead they changed the gender policy to NOT have to include the parents!

I asked what evidence do they need to change their minds? (For I have sent many) What could I say for them to listen to my concerns?

I stated that we care about the children and sometimes we have to stop what we are doing and take a new approach and at least I have the proof I tried!

❤️

I hope you know there are many of us that know the truth!!! I fight against this for my own child, and for those lost, those in it, those who might go in it one day.

I agree NO ONE IS TRANS. 💔

I am deeply sorry for this tragedy in your life. It is interesting how quickly society escorts our children toward transition, but how resistant it is to walk them back. Occasionally someone will call my now desisted daughter by her transgender name and it is a huge trigger for me.

I'm so glad your daughter has desisted, Lisa, but it should be a trigger! You should give them hell! These are the people escorting children to their doom. And they won't stop until they're met with a greater force. So I say, let them have it! You are the one protecting your child.

I ache for you. To say I understand would be a lie because my child has not died by suicide. But I ache for you deeply. I hope your family can find some healing and peace. ❤️

Thank you for helping to expose the trans lies and evil. Your courage in the face of such heartache and corruption is very admirable. You have my deepest sympathy and respect. That friend of your son's who blamed you at his funeral epitomizes all that is wrong and so very shameful about this cult. It's so one-sided and incapable of even the basics of human decency or understanding, corrupting the young before they know their own minds, intent on ruining the family, especially the mother-child bond that it well knows is every child’s best defence against cult leaders and Pride pipers. But I wager that friend will know in time who in fact let your son down. And it clearly is not you.
