“This may be happening” is what I would like to be happening, but my sense is we are still in a corrupt society where the predators are still out to make money by drugging and mutilating children.
One of the earliest proponents of Queer Theory, an iteration from Critical Theory, was Foucault whom we know was routinely raping boys that had been entrusted to his care for mentoring. I would imagine his degenerate legacy could be continuing at the modern-day mentoring groups for our questioning kids. Disclosure by whistleblowers might speed up the "fading" a bit.
What a bunch of pleasant thoughts! Also remember medical institutions are completely captured by gender ideology in the stupidest way, but many doctors don't agree with it personally and those wars internally are never broadcast outside. The kind of letters I've written our hospital administration and fights I've had at work are things many of us are doing. There are many layers. The tide is changing very slowly but remember, the trans cult has unlimited funding normies don't. So expect it to be slow going still.
The most effective deterrents to doctors are: 1. Lawsuits, and 2. the resulting withdrawal of support by medical liability insurers ("malpractice insurance") for doctors who offer "medicalized gender care."
Most of us may want to see doctors change their positions because they suddenly understand that they are harming people, not helping them. I think that doctors are far more likely to stop practicing "gender affirmative care" when doing so becomes a risk to themselves. I am not saying this because I think that all doctors are unethical or motivated entirely by money. I am saying this because I do think that doctors tend to go along with whatever has become accepted as the conventional belief within their professions as well as within the national culture. Like all the other passive conformers among the "trans allies," they are not deep thinkers and do not question beliefs that have gained acceptance among the organizations they regard as authorities. And now that the bizarre and absurd claims of the "gender" movement have become conventional in Western culture, doctors will be more cautious than are we who challenge those claims. Doctors are easily influenced by drug salespeople and opinions endorsed by their professional associations, but they are conservative once they accept those opinions as truths.
I probably will not be around when this completely goes away. But I really would love my own son back while I have a little time to enjoy that wonderous event.
My daughter went to the first line medical center down the street to get her testosterone shot and the doctor said that he had discussed her case with his colleagues and they had decided that these shots were not healthy for her because they knew these shots because they were being "misused" by body builders as steroids. So my daughter told me: "I'l give the shots myself, I can do it because I learned it when training as a nurse." I was amazed because this was the first time that I heard a doctor push back against these "treatments". A seed of doubt may be sown...
These are the scenes toward the end of the movie about this insane part of our history, showing how it all ended, not in a big dramatic declaration of conciliation by those who went along, with arrests and tearful admissions, but through a slow fade away…
A college orientation leader no longer feels the need to specify he's a "he/him." A progressive professional woman silently takes the "she/her" out of her email signature. A conservative notices he hasn't even joked about "pronouns" in a long time because nobody cares about them anymore.
A "non-binary" woman notices it's been years since she's sincerely wanted gender-neutral restrooms. She's been fine with the women's restrooms this whole time.
An otherwise vulnerable teenage girl sees the TikToks reminiscing on the silly days of 2020: "Remember the labels we gave ourselves? Remember the ridiculous non-binary names we chose?" She agrees that the trend was absurd.
Real change rarely comes with headlines and victory laps. It happens quietly, through risk calculations, second thoughts, and people deciding the old script no longer feels safe, profitable, or even believable.
Friction is creeping back into a system that depended on momentum and compliance. Delayed procedures. Missed appointments. Insurance denials. Subtle social pressure restoring ordinary boundaries. None of it looks dramatic on its own, but together it shifts the landscape.
Movements don’t always collapse in public. Sometimes they just lose energy, lose incentives, and quietly stop sustaining themselves. That’s usually how real correction happens.
This reeks of ChatGPT prose, but it isn't wrong. I think this is mostly how the excesses of 2010s feminism died out. Progressives just got tired of arguing about the "wage gap" and "rape culture" and "systemic sexism" - it was less tiring and more rewarding for conservatives to argue against their claims than it was for progressives to argue for them.
Just to be clear, I wrote the original piece, not ChatGPT. And yeah, I mostly agree with your take. This is exactly how the excesses of 2010s feminism burned themselves out too. Not with some dramatic collapse, but through exhaustion and diminishing returns.
The slogans stopped persuading, the arguments got stale, and people quietly moved on to things that actually rewarded them. Once the energy imbalance flipped, it became more work to defend the claims than to challenge them, so fewer people bothered carrying the water. Movements don’t usually end with a bang. They fade when the incentives disappear and the audience gets bored.
The medical ICD coding of these cross sex surgeries are mostly non-existent (or made up, or just lied about) and if the patient wants to detransition and try to become normal and whole again there is really no ICD code for that. It's always one more surgery for the trans people, one more hormonal treatment, one more cream to take away the pain of atrophy, one more psych med to help numb the pain of reality and screams in their heads of STOP so they can get any amount of rest. It is a path of pure pain and destruction, a wasteland of volcanic activity that destroys everything. The path to redemption lies in admitting error, restoring life and relationships and families, no one will do that but parents, stay strong, keep your door open for your prodigal children. Continue to love them as best as you can as this puts "coals on their head".
The "coals on their head" verse refers to Proverbs 25:21-22 and its use in Romans 12:20, meaning that showing kindness (feeding/giving water) to a hungry or thirsty enemy causes them shame and remorse, leading them to a change of heart, not physical harm, as God will reward your good actions. This action "overcomes evil with good," prompting reflection and potentially repentance in the enemy, much like a blacksmith softens metal with heat.

can you give me a solid citation for what you say here about Foucault?
I've heard these allegations previously and would like to know who has testified about this abuse.
thank-you!

I hope and pray that comes true for you 🤗
I love this! Imagining the micro changes that get us out of this catastrophic sh*tshow. Awesome writing.
Thank you

Insurance coverage needs to stop for cross hormones and surgery 🙏🙏
100%
This is the number 1 problem at the moment I think.
It is about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Cut off the money and not the body parts. Stop the money flow for Wrong Sex hormones.
Amen and Amen 🙏

Have you heard about any Insurance denials? I think insurers are still required to pay for this stuff. They wouldn't do it if not required, IMO.

The article is my own words. I did encourage the PITT editors to help me. They added the first sentence.
I once sent another article through an AI editor. It flipped the meaning.
