Almost Everything the Media Tell You About Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Is Wrong
Daily Signal ^ | 8/22/16 | Ryan T. Anderson

A major new report, published today in the journal The New Atlantis, challenges the leading narratives that the media has pushed regarding sexual orientation and gender identity.

Co-authored by two of the nation’s leading scholars on mental health and sexuality, the 143-page report discusses over 200 peer-reviewed studies in the biological, psychological, and social sciences, painstakingly documenting what scientific research shows and does not show about sexuality and gender.

The major takeaway, as the editor of the journal explains, is that “some of the most frequently heard claims about sexuality and gender are not supported by scientific evidence.”

Here are four of the report’s most important conclusions:

Transgenders are mentally ill and the left wants to force us into participating in their mental illness.

LOL!

My youngest niece decided that she wanted to be a puppy.

We played along, (food and water dish on the floor, pats on the head) until dinner time when for desert we had hot fudge sundaes. She asked why she didn't get one and we told her dogs couldn't have chocolate.

She decided that she didn't want to be a puppy any more.

Kids have vivid imaginations and love to role play. They are not at fault. It is the parents who need a reality check.

Well, I have begun to refer to “liberals” as LIEberals!

Because they LIE!

And, LYING is ALL they have!

And we won't have to learn yet another new word to describe these aberrations. I read over the weekend where 'cisgender' is being used as a pejorative to describe a person whose gender identity, gender expression and biological sex all align, as though THAT is somehow abnormal.

Get ready for some liberal “science denial”

You see... liberals only like science when it agrees with their preconceived notions.

Of course, the voices on the left (homoleftists) will simply say “those scientists are largely discredited” and keep pounding their drums of discord chanting “why can’t you accept me the way I am?”

“Ordo ab Chao” y’all.

Members of the non-heterosexual population are estimated to have about 1.5 times higher risk of experiencing anxiety disorders than members of the heterosexual population, as well as roughly double the risk of depression, 1.5 times the risk of substance abuse, and nearly 2.5 times the risk of suicide.

Despite what they say, and despite the unwavering support of "popular culture," the "non-heterosexual population" still knows deep down inside that what they do is wrong. No amount of rationalization can convince them otherwise; they still know its wrong. And it makes them miserable. No amount of affirmation can remove their misery, either. And that's why they simply cannot stand to hear any viewpoint which tells them what they already know; that what they do is wrong.

Keep in mind one thing about the "non-heterosexual population." All of their false propaganda about their wonderful lifestyle is not intended to convince us heterosexuals that what they do is OK. They are really trying to convince themselves. They are failing and always will.

What are the odds of a true hermaphrodite? 1 in 1,000,000?

Other than that it’s pretty darned simple to know what sex, AND GENDER, you are by feeling around the groin area.

"Almost Everything the Media Tell You About Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Is Wrong" but very well sponsored by the most influential political folks administering every side of politics: the most respected, drug-addled, drunken NIMBYs pushing the straitlaced, old fashioned trash out of American communities and into the forests.

I am surprised that Matthew Drudge of the Drudge Report has not yet mentioned the Hillary Clinton diapers story, especially considering that WikiLeaks’ top lawyer in London, was murdered - pushed in front of a train - within 3 days of Wikileaks’ Hillary diaper story breaking!

Members of the transgender population are also at higher risk of a variety of mental health problems compared to members of the non-transgender population. Especially alarmingly, the rate of lifetime suicide attempts across all ages of transgender individuals is estimated at 41 percent, compared to under 5 percent in the overall U.S. population.

Please HaShem, heal them.

One of the authors of the quoted study, Dr. McHugh, has stated that most “transgenders” suffer from a type of disassociative disorder, much like people (primarily young girls) who falsely believe they are fat and become bulimic.

“Cisgender” is just a made up nonsense word. When someone uses it, I just make up nonsense words in response. Let them try to figure out what the heck people are talking about for a change!
