The fact that individuals who have expressed sentiments of gender dysphoria are often have a,

you know, a history of trauma, often sexual trauma, or they're just gay, big deal, right?

The notion that the answer to that is to block their hormonal function when, you know, those

hormones and puberty interact with brain development. In ways we don't understand

another system in the body, or provide surgeries that remove their testicles and penis,

or remove their, you know, their uterus. The notion that that's where you go is, I mean, you

just completely disconnected from reality, from being a being, from what sort of matters, for happiness.

These organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics claims that it's beneficial.

Actually, none of the data say that conclusively at all. Like, there's not been a single

randomized controlled trial. There's almost been no prospective work. I mean, none of the data

show that. And why would it? When individuals are in that stage of life, and so many of them

are have undelt trauma, and the effects of that trauma, sitting there with them, like as they're

making these decisions, how you're not going to fix, I mean, you can change all the organs you want.

You'll never address these other problems unless you address these other problems. I mean,

it's essentially research right now. It's experimental right now. It just kills me again that people

walk around, doctors even saying that, oh, we know this is beneficial. That's a lie. Like,

maybe we'll find out that's the case. I doubt it because of this other stuff that is not

addressed by surgeries and is not addressed. It was also showing this to the side rates for not

dropping out. Yeah, after transitioning and the thing. So if it was such a great fix,

where's the happy shiny people afterwards? And if it's not the case, well, does that

meet professional standards to provide that therapy to an individual who is not old enough to

provide informed consent? And that's an easy one. I mean, the answer is very obviously no.
