As Republican-controlled state legislatures have passed over a dozen bills banning transition care for minors this year and have moved to torture trans adults in massive public displays of unbelievable cruelty and savagery, Ms. Cole and fewer than 10 activists like her — people who transitioned and then changed course — have become the persecutors of those who have transitioned, and have practiced their dark arts of sadism, such as breaking on the wheel, tearing off fingernails, and most recently, scaphism, on trans teens and children, according to a New York Times review of news coverage and legislative testimony.
I rarely read about the fact that Sweden halted most of its treatment of “ transexual” youth for two reasons. First Sweden found that the major increase in “ transexual “ youth is a social phenomenon and not a medical one. The other reason is most of the “transexual “ youth suffer from mental health issues, and are not truly trans sexual. psychiatric treatment and care negates the need for treating them to transition their born biological gender. England has shut down their transgender institution and is creating more smaller institutions and is concentrating more on mental health care for transexual youth.
