Medicine continues to advance! That may explain why Yale
Medical School isteaching
doctors in training to give
hormones and puberty blockers to kids who claim they are
"transgendered".
Hannah
is a 14-year-old girl, clad in leggings and an oversize T-shirt, with long
brown hair that she curls around a finger. She was also born a boy.
Hannah
is using a puberty-blocking implant and getting ready to embark on the path of
developing a female body by starting estrogen. Ten years ago most doctors would
have called this malpractice. New data has now made it the protocol for
thousands of American children.
Being
transgender doesn’t affect Hannah much. She is a straight-A student and
auditioning for her school’s production of “Annie.” She’s both embarrassed and
excited to talk about the two boys who asked her out this year.
“I
turned to him and said, ‘You know I’m transgender, right?’” she tells me. “He
said that he knows I’m transgender and that he also knows I’m pretty and
sweet.”
Wait...
so the boy is gay? Or is the boy really a girl? I need subtitles for this
relationship!
Taking
her red cheeks as a sign to change the subject, we switch back to medicine. I
feel around her bicep, where a hard rod just beneath her skin releases a drug
that turns off the brain cells that would otherwise kick off puberty.
Does
this being done to a child disturb anyone else but me?
The
implant has been in place for two years, preventing the process that would have
deepened her voice and given her an Adam’s apple. She has been happy with the
blocker, but is ready to move on.
At
10, after a yearlong psychological evaluation, she underwent a nonmedical
“social transition.” This meant changing her name from Jonah to Hannah, wearing
girls’ clothes and using female pronouns. She went from the frustrated boy
wearing a yarmulke to the bubbly child wearing a dress and joining the girls’
bunk at summer camp.
I
wonder how the girls at her summer's camp felt seeing a "girl" with a
penis in their showers?
Now
Yale has a gender clinic that provides puberty blockers and hormones. Lectures
on the treatment of transgender youth are part of the mandatory medical school
curriculum.
Isn't
it wonderful how the medical profession is now making it possible for kids as
young as ten years old, or perhaps even younger, to take all these drugs to
become a different gender?
What
a relief that science and medicine has finally caught up with the reality that
boys who think they are girls really are girls! But the work is far from over.
How are doctors going to help boys who think they are girls become pregnant?
How will doctors help girls who think they are boys impregnate girls? When will
vagina transplants become available? Will they be able to grow them in a test
tube like hamburger and implant them in transgendered kids? As you can see,
science has even more work for doctors for decades to come!
To
be serious, just for one paragraph: what the medical profession is doing to
young kids who are seduced by societal propaganda or left-wing parents is
monstrous. They are way too young to consent to this kind of defacing of their
own bodies. Now that the medical profession has been politicized to the
"transgendered," expect a lot more unhappy lives and teenage suicides.
