Quote of the Week from The Island of Misfit Boys: “30% of the brightest 1% of kids at our school are trans. This is a big deal. Our county is risking and often losing our brightest minds to this bullshit belief system, and no one is talking about this. Are we really okay with this?”

UPDATE ON THE CA INITIATIVE
California Parents Sue AG for Undermining Petition That Bans Sex Change Surgeries for Minors
You may recall reading about the Statewide Ballot Initiative in California that aims to protect children from some of the darker aspects of gender “affirmation care”. It calls for requiring parental notification from schools, protecting girls’ sports and preventing sterilization of trans-identified children. It has hit a bit of a snag as the CA Attorney General rebranded the initiative in an attempt to mislead and confuse voters. In response, California parents sued the state’s attorney general this week for allegedly spinning the language of their ballot initiative in a way that undercuts their effort to let voters weigh in on the state’s transgender policies for kids.
WHAT WERE LISTENING TO
Dr. Phil on Joe Rogan finally gets it.
Listen to Dr. Phil explain the madness of childhood transition and the fallacy of gender affirming care.
IN THE NEWS
Researchers argue 'rapid onset gender dysphoria' does exist, despite narrative against it?
Many transgender activists argue gender dysphoria is innate, even biological, as justification for the medical transition of children, but the sharp rise in adolescent girls identifying as transgender has garnered the interest of researchers who argue they could be experiencing "rapid onset gender dysphoria."
SOCIAL MEDIA THAT CAPTURES IT
WHAT WE’RE READING
Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters by Abigail Shrier
One of the books that kicked over the hornets next.
Abigail Shrier, a writer for the Wall Street Journal, has dug deep into the trans epidemic, talking to the girls, their agonized parents, and the counselors and doctors who enable gender transitions, as well as to “detransitioners”—young women who bitterly regret what they have done to themselves. This essential book in the gender critical canon will help you understand what the trans craze is and how you can inoculate your child against it—or how to retrieve her from this dangerous path.

As a Social Worker who worked with these children prior to affirmative care, all I can say is we are lost here. All we can do is affirm. Gender dysphoria isn’t really even diagnosed anymore. It’s not a diagnosis. Body dysmorphia is what’s happening here. The real reality is this is secondary to other mental health disorders, but we cannot diagnose that. The Democrats have signed sealed your children to the slaughter. It’s over until we get a new administration.
LOVE the injecting cattle ad…someone should pay to put that on a few prominent billboards
