Have restacked several times.

Many of us have been saying that this whole fraudulent house of cards will collapse only when an avalanche of medical malpractice lawsuits comes crashing down. And when insurance companies stop paying for this shit. Money talks. Of course a lot of people will be hurt in the meantime.

And of course all the unethical therapists and physicians will quietly backpedal and pretend they never did what they did and will hope that we all forget about it. So will all these trans "allies". Allied to a medical scandal.

Cowards, hypocrites, butchers, all of them.

It will also collapse if it goes out of fashion among young people, especially young women. Eating disorders were like this, during the Eighties and into the Nineties. Women of all ages still seek treatment for eating disorders and talk about their eating issues online. But eating disorders eventually faded to the background while other more interesting abnormal states, behaviors and disorders became fashionable. Like dissociative identity disorder, PTSD, even neurodevelopmental disorders. We need to focus more attention on the question of why so many young American women are so self destructive.

Thanks for putting all of this information together. There will definitely be many upcoming lawsuits against doctors who performed these operations as their patients begin to realize the true mutilation they have went through.

Great essay! Wonderfully argued. Thank you!

But I believe you give the western intellectual hive mind too much confidence in their ability to reflect and self correct in this Gender Ideology Cult. They have way too much invested into this. I see them digging themselves deeper and deeper in —no matter the evidence— until our children and sterilized, made into eunuchs and drones.

I so hope I am wrong!

I am awaiting not just the law suits but criminal actions for fraud, child endangerment , and child abuse. More than happy to roll the guillotine out.

Yes, some doctors during the opioid scandal went to jail for their pill mills and even homicide. This might lead to that.

The FTC hearing yesterday is considering fraud. Once you open up fraud, everything else is on the table. The possibilities here are endless with doctors, clinics , hospitals , “therapists”. I think we may be looking at unprecedented legal actions on a massive scale. But, we shall see.

I think this scandal has its roots in religions that support the belief that the brain, or soul, and body are separate. There’s the idea that the soul goes to heaven (or hell) once the body dies. And then there’s the 17th century philosopher Rene Descartes with his mind/body dualism which set the stage for so much of what has become popular since. People can be easily led to believe that they were “born in the wrong body” if they already accept these other beliefs.

I agree, this is an interesting line of thought. Some commenters have said to me that they "believe in reincarnation" so it isn't hard for them to accept the validity of the belief about "being born in the wrong body." But in the religions that have developed beliefs about reincarnation, Hinduism and Buddhism, people do not get born into the "wrong body." They are generally getting born into the body their previous karma got them to. There is also a theme in some branches of Buddhism, such as Tibetan, that a highly spiritually developed and conscious person can try to exercise choice after death regarding what family they will be born into in the next life, but if they end up with a less advantageous birth it still isn't considered "wrong." It is what it is and the person has to deal with whatever life they are born into as best as she/he can, so as to improve the odds of a higher birth next time around. At least that is how I understand the reincarnation beliefs of the major Eastern religions. The gender ideology always fails as a religion, because its philosophy is so negative and empty.

I'm not sure "enjoy" would be the right term. More like increasing dismay, but just as rewarding to read.
