"As a pediatric neurosurgeon, I have followed the proliferation of surgical procedures for so-called 'gender affirmation' with increasing dismay."
This day in Herstory: Mary Church Terrell, born Mary Eliza Church on September 23, 1863 (died July 24, 1954), was one of the first African-American women to earn a college degree, and became known as a national activist for civil rights and suffrage. She taught in the Latin Department at the M Street School (now known as Paul Laurence Dunbar High School)—the first African American public high school in the nation—in Washington, DC. She helped found the National Association of Colored Women (1896) and served as its first national president, and she was a founding member of the National Association of College Women (1923). (more)
US - Operating On Healthy Bodies Defies Surgical Ethics, And Trans People Are No Exception
Surgical removal of healthy organs is not a treatment for mental illness. Gender dysphoria should be treated with psychiatric therapy.
From The Federalist (USA)
By MICHAEL EGNOR
September 23, 2022
As a pediatric neurosurgeon, I have followed the proliferation of surgical procedures for so-called “gender affirmation” with increasing dismay. That public schools now advocate such treatments to young children is particularly alarming. I say this based not on personal opinion but on 35 years of experience as a surgeon and instructor of surgeons.
I teach at a medical school and I am a residency director for neurosurgery in my institution. This means I am in charge of training young neurosurgeons. I emphasize to medical students and resident neurosurgeons that the first and most fundamental responsibility a surgeon has to his patients is to make an appropriate initial decision as to whether to operate and if surgery is in the patient’s best interest.
A well-performed operation is still malpractice (or even assault) if it is not done for valid medical reasons. Operating for marginal (or less) reasons is more common than most of the public realizes — after all, surgeons are paid (quite well) to operate, and they rightly take pride in operating with skill. To be paid handsomely for what you love to do is a privilege, a joy, and a very dangerous temptation. Not every patient who consults a surgeon really needs surgery — often, non-surgical treatment is more effective and less risky. … read full article
US - Tucker Carlson: Hospitals are mutilating children
From Fox News (USA)
By Tucker Carlson
September 23, 2022
For thousands of years, clinical trials have been the center of Medicine and the idea is very simple. Before you operate on someone or inject people with some new drug, you run trials first to make certain that what you're doing will help the patient more than it hurts the patient. This is not a new idea. James Lind did it back in the 18th Century with his famous scurvy trials.
In fact, medical testing has been going on since at least biblical times, because why wouldn't it? Daniel of Judah compared a vegetarian diet with the diet of the Royal Babylonians over a 10-day period, so he had a control group, independent observers, the whole thing. It's not complicated, but it is essential.
Throughout history, very few have questioned this practice because it makes obvious sense, but now they are. … read full article

The U.S. Department of Defense Education Activity hosted an educational summit in 2021 titled “Equity and Access” to teach educators about gender ideology and anti-racism, according to a report by the Claremont Institute.
The summit featured presentations that promoted teaching elementary school students about gender identity and “How To Be An Anti-Racist” by Ibram X. Kendi.
“Unless we, that is collectively as concerned citizens and lawmakers, reverse this sort of trend, in education, on military bases and across the country, the American Republic will die,” Claremont President Ryan Williams, who authored the report, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The U.S. Department of Defense Education Activity (DODEA) hosted an “Equity and Access” summit in 2021 that featured presentations on gender ideology and anti-racism, according to a report by the Claremont Institute.

In late August, Julie Perry, a teacher at Centreville High School, stood before her homeroom class in Room 225, presenting back-to-school tips to students from an official school PowerPoint, when she got stuck on slides 14 and 15. The slides spelled out points from Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) handbook on “Student Rights and Responsibilities,” stating that students have the “right to be called by chosen name and pronoun” and the right to “access the restroom and locker room facilities…that are consistent with your gender identity,” all without a parent’s knowledge.
Following the rape last year of a girl by a boy in a Loudoun County high school bathroom, Perry hesitated, thinking about the safety concerns some students had expressed to her about such privileges, as well as the denial of parental rights raised by the school district’s policy. … read full article

Parents nationwide have rallied together to challenge a newly passed California bill that would allow a judge to revoke parental rights over a child who came from a different state seeking transgender surgery, puberty blockers and more.
Parental rights groups say they “have several grave concerns” with SB 107, which would allow California to take “temporary emergency jurisdiction” of a child that came to California for transgender operations or drugs, effectively stripping parents of their authority over their children.

Warning for parents: My daughter, age 16, was able to obtain gel testosterone on-line from a store in the UK, shipped to the U.S. She used her cash—saved from the bat mitzvah she begged for—to pay for it.
I’m Jewish by heritage, but totally unreligious, and my husband is a lapsed Catholic. Together we decided early on that our children would be raised without religion, although we continued to follow some cultural practices in our family. We celebrate Chanukah and Christmas by playing good music, eating good food, playing fun games, buying presents, and my husband insists on a tree. My son was just fine with that, and always told his friends “I’m Jewish and Catholic and I’m not religious.”
My daughter, on the other hand, really wanted to go to Hebrew School. Some of her cousins went, and some of her friends went, and it looked like fun. She was also curious about it. She begged and begged for two years, until I finally relented. She loved it and excelled at learning to read Hebrew. She even taught me the Alef Bet (Hebrew alphabet). … read full article

September 23, 2022
What is gender identity? Since this very new term is now cemented in law, corporate practice, and now medicine as well, it’s a good question.
Here is an official description from HRC, the biggest “queer” lobby:
One’s innermost concept of self as male, female, a blend of both or neither – how individuals perceive themselves and what they call themselves.
The key word, it seems to me, is neither. It means that your gender may not have anything to do with being male or female or on any kind of masculine/feminine spectrum. Your gender identity can be a tree, a fish, a Nazi, a puddle, or an earthworm — and these innermost identities must always be affirmed and be protected in law.

September 23, 2022
The World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s 27th Scientific Symposium, which was held between September 16-20 in Montreal, was the site of a number of extraordinary developments whose impact will be felt for a long time. Among them was a presentation by Thomas W. Johnson, a professor emeritus of anthropology at California State University, discussing a chapter in the new Standards of Care issued by the organization which designates “those who identify as eunuchs” suffering from “Male-to-Eunuch Gender Dysphoria” as subjects with a need for “gender-affirming care” as a part of the “gender diverse umbrella.” Johnson is, among other things, the author of a remarkable op-ed published in the Washington Post advising ISIS to cease beheading and begin castrating prisoners so as to create a class of eunuchs who will replicate the purportedly crucial role their predecessors played in the original Caliphate acting as “infertile functionaries to enact the authority of the state.” His remarks effectively convey the tone and atmosphere of the event and the baseline assumptions held by those helping to define the organization’s mission and priorities. They are worth listening to and reading in full and constitute a notable document of our times. These are the people exercising influence over the organization setting standards for gender affirming care. … read full article

Our culture is contaminated by academics and politics instead of being guided by custom

September 23, 2022
Of all the profound questions posed to humankind throughout time, no one could have guessed that the question "what is a woman?" would be one of them. Especially as the question itself is not profound at all. Yet the trending narrative that "anyone can be a woman" is now considered a truth to the point that major changes have recently been passed into New Zealand law that allows men to legally falsify the nominated sex on their birth certificate, hiding evidence of their actual sex. The new law allows them to be legally recognized as a woman based on nothing more than a personal declaration.
Unlike previous stringent conditions, the requirements to provide medical evidence, and undergo years of therapy and radical surgery have been removed. In other words, no man needs to change a thing about his appearance to legally be considered a "woman." The Big Lie, typically credited to Goebbels, comes to mind. … read full article

When the dead bodies start piling, will the ‘Gender Industry’ atone for these crimes?

The crimes committed by the ‘trans’ community largely go unreported in the mainstream media, save for the odd newsy pieces that don’t scratch past the surface. Several media houses that talk extensively about ‘trans’ issues, largely brush aside the mounting crimes as anomalies. It is as though even repeated occurrences of similar crimes do not warrant concerted scrutiny by journalists or legal bodies. The Indian ‘gender identity’ cult comprises a neat set of victims.
First, the young, rich, spoilt Indians who flaunt their neo pronouns on social media, calling themselves strange things. They are found online, whinging interminably about some self-proclaimed victimhood.
Next we have the ‘hijra’ community which has become the topic du-jour amongst Western gender ideologues who use these men as pawns to justify administering puberty blockers to children. By citing the existence of sociocultural groups like hijra, they also conflate ‘sex’ and ‘gender,’ claiming that ‘gender-feelings’ are innate. How neo-imperialistic of them! … read full article
