NYTimes OP ed: As Kids, They Thought They Were Trans. They No Longer Do.

As Kids, They Thought They Were Trans. They No Longer Do.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/02/o...dysphoria.html
At no point during her medical or surgical transition, Powell says, did anyone ask her about the reasons behind her gender dysphoria or her depression. At no point was she asked about her sexual orientation. And at no point was she asked about any previous trauma, and so neither the therapists nor the doctors ever learned that she’d been sexually abused as a child.
For the record, I do not hate trans people, wish harm on them, wish Government harm on them or anything. My problem, to this point, is how one-sided people were allowed to be. Nobody was allowed to question it respectfully, to openly ask whether this was right for all kids, to push back in any manner. Any attempt was immediately depicted as some broadly hateful anti-trans rhetoric from a far right extremist bigot.

This is not a black and white situation. It's tricky, it's nuanced and it demands honest and open dialogue -- which has not been permitted. There is more than one side to this debate and both sides must be heard.

The only dog in this fight I am upset with is how people were censored to keep this discussion from happening. The actual extremists were allowed to control the entire narrative and that is and was bullchit.

In these forums, I've pushed back on this overwhelmingly "MUST BE TRANS. ALL TRANS. ANYTHING LESS=HATE" and been accused of being a bigot (by the usual suspects), people who are just here to disagree, people who are only capable of lining up 100% with what "their team" tells them to do or just terrible people. So, let's not pretend it's not out there, but at the same time I know for a fact most people, even on the left, are not 100% in line with the LGBTQ Trans narrative when it comes to children and transitioning. More of you need to stand up and say something.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Thats the problem. The screeching left looked at it from an ideological/religious lens instead of the health of the actual child. Sad.

The only folks turning it into a false dichotomy are devout partisans.

"The elite" trying to turn all kids trans is a CT.

Sounds eerily similar to the Covid 19 arguments from the left. Nobody was allowed any dissenting opinions against the "experts" while it was going on. Then they have the nerve to endlessly repeat the "muh democracy" is at risk argument for whatever they don't agree with...

Boy, it's almost as if the majority of these trans cases were actually nothing more than a giant trend after all.

There was some local article a while ago about how at one school a majority of kids had pronouns or identified as bi, gay, whatever. It’s the in thing right now especially in blue cities.

Social media is a helluva drug. Gotta do anything to fit in.

Edit: couldn’t find the article but found this for a larger scale showing 1/4

Anyone with common sense knows that pushing this trans ideology on children is evil and only harming people

Yup.


The killings haven't even begun...

From the mutilated children who now can never go through puberty, or have working genitals.
They will soon start blaming the doctors who did this to them, and their parents for allowing it to happen.
These poor kids are castrated for life. Their entire sexual future has been destroyed, all for a liberal fad.

That's another thing, do people not understand that these kids are being sterilized?
