I posted a study from Finland and the research found that supporting children believing they are a gender other than their biological gender is iatrogenic. Suicide rates are not any higher fr those who are not higher in those who are not affirmed in the so called “gender dysphoria” group. The research cares more about children than agendas. https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/science/articles/finland-youth-gender-medicine

SFC (Join to see) - I pointed out the studies show 4 out of 5 children will settle into their biological gender if they left alone. If the children are supported in their “transition” they never become adjusted. Teachers have had after school “ groups” pushing gender dysphoria. Teachers have told their pupils that they aren’t their biological gender, you aren’t Bob you are Bobbie and your pronouns are not he and him but her and she. Don’t tell your parents, this is our secret. This has created all kinds of psychological problems in the children. So it isn’t just cis gender people pushing sexual orientation.

SFC John D. Bingo: the Left likes Trans more than bio kids and illegals more than real Americans. Bio Male Frankensteins kill women's sports. Bizzaro apologists ruin kids, sports and America culture. DEI kills it!

That's all trans people want. Also what the f* is a "real" American? What makes someone a "real" American? I'm curious what YOU think makes someone a "real" American and what's a "fake" American. I just see a LOT of white privilege in your comments time and time again. All the time.

What's a "bio male Frankenstein?" Frankenstein is the doctor in the book by the way...not the creature created. What's "American culture?" Describe it to me. I'd love to hear YOUR version of "American culture." Also - I guarantee you and everyone else who cries about trans athletes never once took a second thought about girls and women's sports prior to the few trans kids and adults in competitive sports. There aren't that many. Maybe 100 in the NCAA. Probably less in high school. Not one trans athlete is "dominating" any sport either. But I'm not going through this again the fact that athletics are not "fair" or "equal" even among cisgender kids. There have always been kids and adults who out perform their peers for whatever reason whether they have a height advantage or produce more testosterone or like Phelps produces more lactic acid than an average person and had a larger wingspan than the average person that made him better at swimming. The lists go on in that aspect.

Honestly you sound like an angry old man yelling at a cloud...that's what I think of every single time you post. And the other boomer vets on here. It's sad actually a lot of the time.

SFC (Join to see) I don't know where you are. Others come up with a idea that I want to get rid of transgender people. I never said that. What adults want to do is their own thing. I remember that special forces officer who retired and ensued the library of congress because his job was resented because he needed a few months to go through his transition surgery to become a fake female. He tried so hard to prove that he was a man that after he was done with that and retired as a lieutenant colonel in special forces, He became a she and got their wish.

Remember when you got mad months ago? When I said that the biological male from Southern California who went trans, got the exact same run time. That I did back when I was in high school? A 4 minute 55 2nd mile.?

I am not one of those Bible thumbnail. Christians that want to send transgender messed up kids to camps to make them straight. I don't care what Lisa Turner says. She comes up with stupid shit all the time. I'm sure she's upset today because a supreme court ruled against Her desire for Donald Trump to be off the ballot.

A female got offended when someone had a banner saying 'protect women's sports.'

People get offended when there are statements made that there are only two genders and that women should have their own sports but tough Sierra if the alphabet people get upset!

Yes, I know Frankenstein book written in the 1800s by a female.

This is not MediCal Care!!!! Children are in no medical danger if they do not undergo these procedure. But, they are in more medical danger if they do. Doctors aren't assigning sex at birth it's clear by their genes and physical makeup whether they're male or female. They are children. Quit exploitimg them. It's one thing for an adult to want to put their bodies and selves through this. But anybody advocating this for children should be put in jail "Chip." It's reckless behavior to suggest children must under go this. Let the children be children and develop normally, once they're adults, and still can't come to terms with who they are; then let them make adult decisions. We don't let children drink, get tattoos, vote, or make long-term business decisions... yet some IDIOTS are trying to allow them to make life altering decisions, that can't be reversed? There's a special place in hell for people who Advocate this mistreatment and abuse of children. I've lost all respect with this post and kind of thinking. This will my last comment towards anything you post Chip. I think you're either posting for people to comment and you gain RP social recognition, or are just trying to get rises out of people, or have been brainwashed to think these thoughts are humanitarian, or you truly believe in this child abuse. So, I no longer have anything to say to you about anything. I could care less if one is gay or straight. That's their personal decision about their identity. What you're arguing for is life-altering genital mutilation, castration, and hysterectomies in children. LEAVE OUR CHILDREN ALONE!!!! Take care and good luck in your future.

Doctors literally do assign gender at birth. Especially when someone is intersex and they allow the parents to decide what gender the child will be.

"It's clear by their genes and physical makeup..." no it's not. Lol. It's literally NOT clear. I bet you would be surprised if you actually had genetic testing and your chromosomal make up done on yourself that you don't have the chromosomes you think you do.

"Biological phenomena don't necessarily fit into human-ordained binary categories. So while humans insist that you're either male or female – that you have either XY or XX sex chromosomes – biology begs to differ.

For example, genetic men with Klinefelter syndrome possess an extra X chromosome (XXY) or more rarely, two or three extra Xs (XXXY, XXXXY); they typically produce low levels of testosterone, leading to less-developed masculine sexual characteristics and more-developed feminine characteristics than other men. In contrast, some men receive an extra Y chromosome (XYY) in the genetic lottery, and while they have been referred to as "supermales" that is more sensationalism than science.

Genetic women with Turner syndrome have only one X chromosome; they often display less-developed female sexual characteristics than other women. And people with a genetic mosaic possess XX chromosomes in some cells and XY in others. So how do we determine if they're male or female? Hint: Don't say that it depends on the chromosomal makeup of the majority of their cells, since women with more than 90 per cent XY genetic material have given birth."

"For example, genetic women (XX) with congenital adrenal hyperplasia produced unusually high levels of virilizing hormones in utero and develop stereotypically masculine sexual characteristics, including masculinized genitals.

Similarly, genetic men (XY) with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome don't respond to male hormones and fail to develop masculine sexual characteristics. Most live their lives as women. Some historians suggest that Joan of Arc, Elizabeth I and Wallis Simpson all suffered from this syndrome."

It's far more complicated than people like you want to make it seem.

SFC (Join to see) - Your post is full of emotional rhetoric, extremely rare cases, and ignorance. You do paint a comical picture. Doctor in the delivery room; "This one looks like a boy, this one looks like a girl, this one has a vagina, but I think I'll call it a boy anyways, and now we have another girl..." There's a little more going on than assigning when a child is born. Especially after months of testing, observing the child grow, and DNA and other data collecting... Sexes aren't just assigned as you would seat. If you bothered to pay attention in Biology Class you would know there is a scientific process.

You probably don't remember, but we've had this conversation before. I told you, you wouldn't recognize a woman if you saw one. You were insulted. But, by your definition, one chooses to be a man or woman. But, that doesn't make you one. So, you wouldn't recognize one on site. Now, you also choose to be a child molester/abuser. You're okay with child castration, child genital mutilation, and teenage and preteen hysterectomies. These procedures will keep these kids on hormones, other pills, and medications for the rest of their lives. These procedures will also cause the underdevelopment of bones, organs, and other vital growth processes that will enable these children to live long and healthy lives. Quit trying to abuse children. Once they become adults, they can make adult decisions. Neither Children nor their parents, need to make these decisions for them prior to their body's complete development. There are no actual biological or health risks with children not getting these procedures done as children. There will be mental and emotional aspects these kids must deal with. Which is about the only thing we agree on. These kids need counseling NOT surgery. They don't need gender affirmation counseling, just counseling that would be neutral, counseling that neither affirms a gender nor disavows gender.

I've had genetic testing done through the military (in 2003 most all SOF unit had to take DNA tests for burial identification purposes), and on my own. I know what my genetic make up is. I have also done genetic testing to verify my heritage. I'm 33% Hispanic (I'm 100% Ethnic Hispanic and 33% through DNA) 22% Portuguese, French and some other European ties, but I'm also 23% Native American/Caribbean Tribal Native. That being the Taino Tribe. The other 22% of my DNA is a mixture of African, Caribbean, and Central and South American DNA. Which is not uncommon for Puerto Ricans since we were conquered by Europeans and right in the trade route for goods, slavery, and livestock. No I'm not surprised about my DNA makeup, my chromosomes, and other things that make me who I am. I did take the time to research and find out for myself my genetic makeup. I already know/knew who my family on the island is/were. We come from the two largest families on the Island, Rivera and Jovet (Our/my last names shows our/my European ties. However every Puerto Ricans last name does this.).

Gender affirming care encompasses a variety of things - it's not just puberty blockers. It's a wide range of services that includes mental health care, medical care and social services. For all ages. At all ages, clear, well-established, evidence-based standards of care exist for who can access what form of gender affirming care, and when they are eligible to receive it.

Collectively representing more than 1.3 million doctors across the United States, every major medical and mental health organization — including the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Psychological Association — recognizes that it is medically necessary to support people in affirming their gender identity.

Prior to puberty, transition is entirely social, and may involve changing names, pronouns, clothing, and hairstyles. During and after puberty, some medical treatments may be available, but only after significant consideration and consultation between the youth, their families and their health care providers.

Cisgender kids with precocious puberty have been given puberty blockers since the 1990s - no one has EVER said anything about trying to stop that. No outrage. No misniformation spread about it when it's used for cisgender kids but used for trans kids...suddenly it's an issue.

Not giving trans or non binary people proper access to medical care is detrimental. Period.
