‘Gender-affirming care’ is starting to run up against reality and it is getting really ugly for the people who pushed sterilization and mutilation on children.
Recently, after journalist Michael Shellenberger released ‘the WPATH files,’ the credibility of individuals and organizations who have embraced trans activism has been called into question, and for one very good reason: they have no credibility.
Now, nations such as the UK and France are either banning these practices outright or considering bans as more evidence comes out that justifies the French Senate calling ‘gender-affirming care’ one of the greatest medical scandals in history.
The latest report to be released comes from the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota and it is shocking.
Mayo Clinic say puberty blockers leave trans kids with withering testes, fertility problems and even cancer, in latest blow to trans medicine https://t.co/kkkV6Tju5E pic.twitter.com/JaK1PnpaTs

The only thing that is more appalling than this report is how obvious it was to anyone with a working brain. Here is more from The Daily Mail:
The findings cast doubt on the 'reversibility' of puberty blockers — a key claim of the trans activists who promote the drugs, saying they only 'pause' puberty and buy time for trans kids to make decisions about their gender.
Instead, researchers say puberty blockers hurt the development of testicles and sperm production in ways that are not fully reversible and could affect users' ability to have children when they grow up.
'At the tissue level, we report mild-to-severe sex gland atrophy in puberty blocker-treated children,' the geneticist Nagarajan Kannan and others wrote in the 33-page study.
The research also found the presence of microlithiasis in some of the 87 boys who participated in the study, small clusters of calcium that are linked to testicular cancer.
You don’t say?
We’ve been saying this for YEARS. “Follow the science” remember? https://t.co/zgj5qJV62i

I mean, OG transsexuals have only been warned about these realities since forever, and many of these puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones even state as having such side effects.
But let’s all be shocked now, why don’t we? 🤷♂️ https://t.co/sPTPBHBYJS

The ultimate tragic irony here is that for many years, when conservatives (and generally sane people) would object to these treatments, the response from the trans activist community would be, ‘Show us the research that they’re harmful. You don’t have any proof.’
As conservative pundit Matt Walsh has repeatedly pointed out, it’s difficult to have a body of research on a medical practice that has only truly come into vogue in the past decade. Walsh also commonly says that you don’t need research when you have common sense ... and he’s right.

Well, now the research is coming out and there is a growing, deafening silence from the TRAs.
The tide seems to be turning against the medicalization of children with gender dysphoria. Do you think there will ever be accountability for the so called “experts,” medical associations, and media who pushed destructive lies for profit and/or ideology? Or will they evade… https://t.co/WtkIjlcDUa

The rest of that tweet reads, ‘Or will they evade accountability as the lockdowners have?’
We hope not. COVID lockdowns and mandates were very harmful and there MUST be some accountability there. But mutilating children is FAR worse. It is the destruction of an entire generation, and it is all based on social contagion and a lie.
Trans medicine is barbarism. Period

“Medicine” I believe you meant to say child abuse.

Both of those descriptors are correct.
Yep. Not reversible. Yet, so many pedo docs testified not long ago in SC at a committee hearing the complete opposite.
Maybe somebody should be investigating the doctors harming these kiddos and criminally prosecuting them. https://t.co/hFEPvNHIyQ

Yes. What she said.
Woah the transgender hormonal drugs cause cancer? Why didn't anyone tell us this?!?

Stop experimenting on children. https://t.co/ql1BtyHR4b

Can we finally admit that this is what ‘gender-affirming care’ is? An experiment? And not just any experiment, a sick, twisted, Dr. Mengele-style experiment.
I repeat: there is nothing compassionate about giving children “withering testes, fertility problems, and even cancer.” https://t.co/xaL8DkyII7

Here are some words that mean the opposite of compassionate: heartless, cruel, callous, hateful, and inhuman.
Those ALL describe activists and medical professionals who would destroy children. For the activists, it is done to advance their Marxist agenda. For the doctors, while some may be true believers, many do it to fatten their wallets as they create lifelong dependents who will not be able to exist without more ‘care.’
Frankly, we’re not sure which is worse. They’re both evil.
It’s time to end all of it, and send many, many people to prison.

Thanks for the ping.
I am 75 and have yet to experience my first resurrerection
because of these puberty blockers!(sarc.)
The doctors that perform these surgeries or prescribe puberty blockers should lose their licenses besides finiancial penalties.
The obvious moral and ethical problems with these ‘Treatments’ make it tragic that it has become so common.
The worship of money and wealth has become a disease in this country. The idea that doctors who are supposed to ease suffering would cause suffering in a child purely for monetary gain is obscene.
>The idea that doctors who are supposed to ease suffering would cause suffering in a child purely for monetary gain is obscene.
Agreed, and even worse is the parents who approved of these procedures, as there are two outcomes of thinking in their case:
1. They were right to do this, but now their children are irrevocably scarred, which they have to ignore.
2. They were wrong, and willfully destroyed their own children for some stupid social trend.
If they acknowledge 2, ask for forgiveness, and move on, then they can find redemption. However, this is extremely hard as no parent wants to admit they purposefully injured their own child, so they will remain at number 1, and be the loudest advocates for continued destruction of children as they can’t face 2.
Speaking of parents
How is it that these woke parents seem to have totally abandoned the desire for having grandchildren?
The basic nature of these treatments is the sterilization of the child.
The Woke seem to also to have abandoned the parental responsibility to raise children to be the custodians of the generation to come.
With transitioned children their is no generation to come.
“I just want my child to be happy.”
How happy can your child be when it will be in pain the rest of their life? How happy will they be when they have brittle bones when they are 40? How happy will they be when they are in their thirties and regret that they never had children and know that they never can?
