Three years ago yesterday, we launched this Substack in the hopes of getting the word out about what was happening to our beloved children. We weren’t sure people would find it and we had no idea of the impact it would have.
As co-founders of this publication we wanted to save our own children from the harms of gender identity ideology and hoped we could help other parents too. We never expected that this medical scandal would continue on this long. But we are here for the long haul! We will continue to publish essays until we can confidently say there is no longer a need. We have published over 700 essays to date. What will it take for the world to wake up and hear our cries — 1000? 2000? Why are people not listening to parents? We now know the truth, and we’ve been right to be skeptical. A comprehensive report published by impartial experts has declared that the evidence base for so-called gender affirming care is “remarkably weak” and “is built on shaky foundations.” Maybe now people will start to listen.
Our children have been and continue to be seriously harmed. This gender madness must end!
Fellow parents and PITT readers - please keep your stories coming. We want them all to be read and shared. It’s working. PITT now has over 12,000 subscribers. In the last 30 days PITT essays have had over 294,000 views.
Writing your family’s story and seeing it published can be cathartic. Documenting the harm done to you and your family will ensure your story lives on and may help to prevent this kind of medical scandal from ever happening again. It can also reach other parents in need or in a similar situation. If nothing else, you will be able to tell a detransistioner (who might be your own child someday) that you fought the good fight.
Thank you to all who have sent us your story and joined the PITT family. Have you sent in your family’s story? Your story is important too. Please email it to us at Pitt@genspect.org.
Thank you, PITT. I am so grateful to you and what you have created. There are so many days that reading a post is all I have to comfort me. Thank you to all of you who have shared your stories.
Thank you PITT. Many anecdotal stories = evidence.
