These items don't exist in a vacuum.

California recently passed AB 1266 which requires that schools allow students to partipate in programs and sports according to his or her gender identity, i.e. a 6'5" male basketball player joining the girls team. That state has also become a "sanctuary state" for teans youth.

California Globe: "SB 107 allows non-parent adults to bring minor children to California for experimental and damaging transgender medical interventions, without the knowledge or consent of their parents."

"..."According to an online survey of detransitioners conducted by Dr. Lisa Littman last year, 40% said their gender dysphoria was caused by a mental-health condition and 62% felt medical professionals did not investigate whether trauma was a factor in their transition decisions," the Post reported.

"I saw children being fast-tracked onto medical solutions for psychological problems, and when kids get on the medical conveyor belt, they don't get off," Marcus Evans said. He was the Clinical Director of Adult and Adolescent Services at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, a publicly funded mental-health center in the UK where many youth seek treatment for gender dysphoria, the Post reported. "But the politicization of the issue was shutting down proper clinical rigor. That meant quite vulnerable kids were in danger of being put on a medical path for treatment that they may well regret."

If you want to bust on the medical industry, why not start with overly priced drugs that save lives, but are jacked up in price to profit off the vulnerable?


President Trump did that - the DC Swamp blocked his executive order. Dems still in bed w Big Pharma.
Corruption / capture of the U.S. Government by Big Pharma & Medical insurers is completely bipartisan. The only legislators who aren't bought off are Bernie & Elizabeth Warren, & a few House Dems.

Nice try.

That's good to know.
Sounds reasonable at first blush.

You post about the issue A LOT and it's something I NEVER think about so I wondered why you do.

I should say… my freshman year roommate lives in the LA basin and I chatted briefly on FB with him a couple years ago. He said something about "my daughter " and I said, "wait, I thought you had a son". He responded, "she's transitioning".

So, I'll have to get back in touch at some point and inquire about it all. In the meantime, since I know NOTHING of it, I will trust John and his ex-wife to have guided his child with wisdom and compassion and an ethical responsibility.

The child was probably 14 at the
time (???).


I have had three acquaintances / work colleagues tell me their children (all girls) believe they are trans the past 3-4 months.

I definitely believe social media plays a huge role, and possibly lockdowns (isolation). Our society is also now hyper-focused on attention, 'look at me' behavior.




Counter anecdote - I have had zero of those experiences

James Lindsey speaks to the EU about Woke, it's history and references, how it's applied in the west, how it is socialist and doesn't hide it. This speech is brilliant imho.

I stayed awake for about the first four minutes. Dude doesn't seem to know what a genus is. Maybe review his taxonomy, but I sort of get the point he is trying to make... sort of. Speaking of not knowing, I don't know what "queer theory" is, nor do I care to, but it sounds like something that exists to frighten insecure people. No, I'm not going to google it.

The United States is a capitalist country and I don't see that changing. We should strive to provide equal opportunity and equal rights to all of our citizens. That doesn't mean everybody is going to end up equal.

As a white, male heterosexual, I feel pretty confident that people like me are going to be okay.

You watched 4 minutes then feel confident enough to comment about it. He explained why he uses the word genus as part of his example to make it easier to understand. He literally explains what Queer theory is and how it is tied into "Woke" or Socialism with American Characteristics. At least attempt to watch the whole thing before commenting for goodness sakes.

I made an attempt; it's just that I couldn't do it. Really, I feel I got the gist. Queer Theory: Whatever the heck it is, some people hear that and get all scared for the future of mankind. I hear it, shrug my shoulders and go on with my life.


The explosion in young teenager sex reassignment surgery, mastectomies, castrations, online cheerleading, and youth grooming doesn't concern you?

Apparently surgeries are being performed with the 'tough' requirement of one letter from one individual, professional training unspecified.


Please provide numbers that convince me that the number of surgeries you mention exceeds the number of people who will feel better about themselves after having undergone
them.


How about we reserve barbaric, unproven, hyped fad surgeries for those over 25? And require some real professional requirements by trained professionals? (One doctor disagreed with the Chloe Cole procedures, and they brought in another doctor to rubber stamp the procedures. She is now de-transitioning.)

Sweden study shows higher rates of suicide for transgendered after surgeries.





Okay, if we increased the age, would you stop busting on LGBTQ?

I don't think so.


I just read last week a teenager died during a sex change operation. Insane!!!

The all-you-can-eat buffet line is crowded again | CNN Business


https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/05/business/golden-corral-cicis-buffets/index.html

*When I was 17, me and 3 buddies smoked a bit of weed and went to The Pipers in San Leandro to test the flex of the "All you can eat" buffet there.

After our third time through the buffet with our meat and fried chicken plate mountains, the manager came to our table and gave us the hook. When we protested and pointed to the "All you can eat" sign the manager countered with, "There is an implied rule of reasonableness and you just violated it."

Not being a master of the principles of contract law at that point in life, we vacated.

Also, Trump generally has a non-interventionist strategy, and you support him. Do you want Biden to intervene to protect homosexuals in Afghanistan? His nonintervention there doesn't mean he is against gays. I don't think this is fair criticism.

Movielover will tell you he is anti-war but he will criticize you for ending a war and blame you for what happens to people on the other side of the world because we aren't at war there.

Movielover is a fraud and a phony.

The withdrawal from Afghanistan was done in reverse order. Biden closed Bagram airfield, freed the prisoners, withdrew the troops, then evacuated the civilians. There were "problems" that could have been avoided.

The mass immigration story is a breaking news story because title 42 expires on May 11. The other event also involved migrants. The Hispanic Range Rover driver with an extensive criminal history, who killed 8 migrants crashing into them outside a homeless support center, has been charged with reckless driving and was detained but more charges could be added. He refused a breathalyser, and police got a warrant for a blood test.
