So well stated that I will print it out and have it in my purse so I can explain all the facts (english is not my first language). We need more of you, hope as you mentioned, people waking up to the facts and I understand people are afraid to talk or express what they think, they don't want to be called names, bigotry, hater, etc but we are way passed Kindergarden level and we have to evolve to adulthood, this is serious and people's lives are being destroyed by the minute, not only the confused trans but their families (so society). Thanks!

This is right and the song "Never" by Tasha Layton helps me.

"Finally, Truth

The only truth in this sad trans saga is our love for you, dear one. As much as we want to dive into these black waters and swim out to you, we moms and dads hold back, knowing that the truth must take route in your own heart to pierce the many trans-lies that have been sold to you. As much as we want to take vengeance from those who aided and abetted your mental and physical decline, we wait. As much as we want to scream at those ‘kind’ supporters pushing you further into a fantasy world, we remain silent. As much as we want to pull down those who have pulled you down into searching for something you will never obtain, we hold off.

We, your parents and siblings, old friends and grannies, aunties and uncles, remain standing with arms open and love in our hearts as we wait. We wait for that time when the light of truth shines through and you can see your way out of this terrible storm.

Until then, and for however long it takes, we are standing for you. We wait, solid, like a lighthouse, hoping someday you can see the light of our love and this truth of that will help guide you back to shore."

This is a stunning piece, and I thank you for writing it. How good it would be if it could be published in every newspaper, magazine, and online media site, to begin to counter the usual blatant propaganda.

Very in-depth and well-organized article. Though this sentence needs correcting: "Like you, they find it extremely difficult to believe that doctors are too stupid to realize that damaging a body will heal a fragile mind." WILL, or WON'T?

After I wrote it I could barely read it so please send this correction & anything else you see directly to PITT so they can fix it. thx

The whole "trans people have always existed" idea is nonsense. Yes, there have probably always been a very, very few people on the fringes of any society who wished they could have been born the other sex, and even fewer who acted on it. But up until the last ten seconds in human history, it has been exclusively men who spent their childhoods and adulthoods hiding a sexual fetish and finally "came out" in middle age. If this all has to do with "acceptance," why hasn't a significant portion of my high school class (1995) decided to live their truth and change their gender, with acceptance so widespread as it is now? And where were the waves of suicides over the years of people who were so closeted that they had no choice but to off themselves? Why did we NEVER hear about anyone who killed themselves because they couldn't live as the opposite sex? Because it's ALL. A. LIE. Thank goodness there are people starting to wake up, but this war is far from over. Sadly, the casualties (young people who have lost body parts, their fertility, and years of their lives living a lie) are many.

To the author, while you wait, do you reach out, do you talk? Of late, with the ‘no contact’ order, I worry that it looks like I have given up.

Christa's avatar

We reach out. Sometimes we get a good - sometimes bad - sometimes no response. I look at it this way: I am a parent until I die and nothing will ever change that. You were told to 'not contact' your child but there is nothing saying you have to listen to that. This is just my opinion, so please see what other parents in a similar situation say. I also pray a lot and in that way I feel I am doing something daily. Ve con dios.

Thank you ❤️ & I hope you continue to get an occasional good response even if it is sporadic, you haven’t been blocked so that’s positive

Excellent essay. Comprehensive, articulate, and, sadly, thoroughly spot-on. Sometimes, though, I wonder if my melancholy would abate if I stopped waiting for my son to wake up - he is now 24 and in this nightmare since 19. But I cannot, so I live as best I can with the persistent ache of parents whose child has been stolen.

Excellent!!! You covered it all!!!

I've said these things in my head for so many years, it's a relief to finally say it 'out loud,'

I wonder if any politician on the left who so adamantly supports the “trans agenda” has ever read any of the evidence shared here? How can they possible support this lunacy if they have the facts before them? It just boggles my mind how captured they have been by the trans ideology.

As an addition to #2:

We must acknowledge that some doctors and therapists are not merely motivated by money. For them, financial gain has only been the cherry on top.

Some of them are deviants who gain sexual pleasure from mutilating children. It is a perverted fantasy that they have been able to act out in real life.

Some of them are genuinely evil and thrill at destroying the lives of mentally ill and autistic children and adults.

Let's be honest about what some of them are: Predators. Wicked. Evil. Demonic.

Yes:

https://reduxx.info/academics-involved-with-top-transgender-health-authority-publish-paper-on-choosing-castration/

"The Eunuch Archive is a long-standing forum which hosts nearly 10,000 fictional pornography stories of an extreme sadomasochistic nature. As previously reported by Reduxx, many of these stories feature a theme of the rape, castration, torture, and killing of children — specifically little boys.

Despite the forum’s highly disturbing nature, the Institutional Review Board of California State University Chico approved the research with the aid of a Eunuch Archive Steering Committee.

In the paper, the authors provide ample praise for WPATH’s most recent version of their Standards of Care and its inclusion of treatment options for those who identify with a eunuch gender."

The reality of this holocaust is too terrible. 😢😢😢

Exactly. Like John Money - the famous founder of gender 'medicine.'

Indeed doctors/therapist do not have magic powers to assign or decide for anyone. Adults rarely have agency against medical providers, teens and children have no hope of challenging what doctors claim. Everyone gets one body, and parts do not grow back, nor can be restored. Puberty is not pathology - it is a critical life stage of growth, development of sexual characteristics and bone density. It is a crime against humanity for this to be medically interfered with.

Further, no one is really celebrated. Denying reality and expecting others to ignore ordinary humans is called gaslighting.

Lastly, sexual orientation is real, observable and measurable: heterosexual. bisexual and homosexual is attraction to the opposite, both or same sex as one's own.

Gender ideology denies both sexual orientation and biology.

When the person who is trans is self loathing, often in denial of their same sex attraction, it can hardly be mysterious why few are willing to date a person with such internal turmoil. Mostly predators who fetish such persons. #LGBWithoutTQ
