Hi guys. So we often talk about on this show, we talk about the left's effort to mainstream

what they call gender affirming care or the gender affirming model of healthcare

for children who suffer from gender disorders. Now gender affirming is their euphemistic term.

I would reject the term, but it's what it's what the left calls this model of healthcare.

And what they mean by gender affirming is this pipeline where children who feel uncomfortable

in their bodies or children who are influenced by the social contagion of rapid onset gender dysphoria

and claim that they identify as a gender that is incongruent with their biological sex.

They're put in this pipeline where first they socially transition and then they are put on

puberty blocking hormones, then they are put on cross sex hormones, then they are referred for

surgical transition, which is the so-called top and bottom surgery. And one of the arguments

that the left collectively makes in favor of this gender affirming model of care, they tell us that

if we dissent from this model of care that we are actively harming these children, we are

causing them to commit suicide, we are reducing them to essentially having poor mental health

because they are conflicted with this with this gender, this incongruent gender and and body.

And very recently on a sub-stat called realities last stand, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute

by the name of Leorse up here, we talked about him and his piece briefly on one of the pieces

that we did for VIPs on locals. He went through all of the studies, the data, the statistics,

and the claims by the leaders on the left that claim that putting children on puberty blocking

hormones results in a better mental health outcome. And so Leorse here with us today because I want

to dive into the weeds on this. This is the underpinning of this effort in the medical community to put

children on these, these, these drugs which are not FDA approved for the purpose of quote-unquote

suppressing puberty or putting a pause button on puberty while they explore their gender identity.
