For the fourth consecutive year, a group of pediatricians submitted a resolution requesting that the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) take an evidence-based approach to treatment recommendations for gender-confused minors. What excuse will the AAP use this year to reject the most fundamental principle of evidence-based medicine?

Time To Think is a hugely important book, not just from the perspective of contemporary debates about the medical transitioning of children, but from that of understanding how any scandal can happen in plain sight.

Parents with Inconvenient Truths about Trans

Our society seemingly worships at the altar of diversity, but gender ideology is bent on erasing the actual diversity in our society. How can we promote diversity while at the same time telling those who are different that they need to be fixed—that they need to medically alter their bodies to be whole?

There are more than 100 pediatric gender clinics across the U.S. I worked at one. What’s happening to children is morally and medically appalling.

The Amsterdam studies from 2011 and 2014 that formed the foundation of the transgender industry should never have been accepted by the professional community, falling “unacceptably” short of modern research standards.

Today, the boyish girl is in danger of being told she was “born in the wrong body,” and whisked off to a gender clinic. Setting children on this path is an obvious grotesque harm. We have taken a terribly wrong turn in allowing pharmaceutical companies to construct lifelong patients out of healthy children.

In a landmark move, Switzerland’s government has rejected gender ideology by ruling that sex is binary and people must be referred to as either male or female, with no exceptions.

A Dutch investigative report has revealed that the 2006 study upon which the entire medical experiment of child sex changes is based was funded by a maker of puberty blockers.

How have the “experts” gotten away with medically experimenting on children in broad daylight?

New analysis finds serious flaws in every long-term study claiming that puberty blockers and hormone treatment improve teenagers’ mental health.

The Charity Commission has launched an investigation into Mermaids, a UK charity for “gender-variant and transgender children”, following investigations by the newspapers “The Telegraph” and “Mail”, as well as demands from critics concerned about child safeguarding.

Is britain tiptoeing away from a medical scandal? Until recently, many gender specialists in the National Health Service (nhs) treated trans-identifying children by broadly following an “affirmative” approach. But Britain now appears to be changing tack.

Joyce activated, issue 27

Helen Joyce talks about the impact of gender identity ideology and social contagion in schools. How the indoctrination of children and the creation of gender inequality results in a veritable epidemic of youth trans-identification.

Spiked

Last week, in a victory for child safeguarding, reality and common sense, the NHS rammed a stake into the heart of trans ideology.

Sexology Today!

Jon Stewart recently interviewed Leslie Rutledge, the Attorney General of Arkansas, regarding medicalized treatments of children with gender dysphoria. Unfortunately, they both were missing information that, if brought out, would have led to a very different conversation.

The eagerly awaited Standards of Care, Version 8 (SOC8) from the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) was recently published to widespread shock and dismay. The new recommendations are based on politics, not science!

If you feel the slightest discomfort and question gender issues, or question its moral goodness and cling to the idea that we are born male and female, you will soon be aligned with the far right.

Washington Examiner

The transgender health organization WPATH will soon publish an update to its guidelines for standards of care. The expected changes include lowering the recommended ages for hormones and surgery in minors. Does anyone truly believe that children understand the long-term implications of these decisions for their bodies and fertility?

Where we used to maintain that reality provided us with certain givens, many now argue that we can uncouple ourselves from those givens, and construct ourselves with reference to our will alone. The obvious example is the debate around sex and gender.

The Daily Mail

The UK’s National Health Service will close the world’s largest pediatric gender clinic. An independent review condemned the clinic as “not a safe or viable long-term option” because its interventions are based on poor evidence and its model of care leaves young people “at considerable risk” of poor mental health.

We are sacrificing our children on the altar of a brutal, extreme ideology. The medical profession is crumbling in response to radical transgender activists. A line has been crossed from ideological possession to active malevolence.

A film by Matt Walsh and the Daily Wire. The question “What is a Woman” – and the apparent inability of highly educated people to answer it – is offered as a gateway into the more general controversy. Walsh is doing a great service in exposing the incoherence of gender advocates and activists in an easy-to-digest form.
