The inmates are running the asylum. As an Obstetrician/Gynecologist, I think that i am qualified to define what a woman/female is (was?). A female is a person with 46 xx chromosomes. No matter what surgery someone has undergone, no matter what clothes they wear, or what they identify as, unless they are 46xx or one of the very rare variants on this, they are not females.

A person born with a 46 xy complement of chromosomes is a male, no matter what surgery they have undergone, no matter what clothing they wear, they are genetically male. There is no scientific debate on this. It is fact, no matter how you desire to spin it. They cannot get pregnant, they cannot menstruate, they cannot nurse an infant.

No distortion of fact and reality can change this. No kumbaya moment will alter these facts. To quote on of my sons(*46 xy)- "it is what it is". Saying you are a fish does not give you the ability to survive underwater.

Thank you for your post. I'm a mother with a daughter in one of these peer groups - learned she was called another name and pronoun at school. The teachers won't stop if you ask them to. That's where it starts. The kid's minds are won over by Gender Ideology and every adult and trusted expert and expert organization in the land "affirms"/gaslights the girls. It is frustrating to me that all the American Medical and Psychological organizations are onboard with a cult ideology. Then, Planned Parenthood will hand destructive testosterone to girls like candy. How is this legal? This cannot have passed the Food and Drug Administration? Doctors don't want to hand out estrogen to menopausal women because that now seems like it could have been rash - and that is the hormone we have had all our lives.

We parents are fighting for our kids and young adult kids on Parents with Inconvenient Truths About Trans.

We've been in this madhouse where the inmates are running the asylum for years on Parents with Inconvenient Truths About Trans: PITT.substack.com. This madhouse is called America. It's like the lobotomy era squared. Did we handle anorexia by calling girls "fatty", giving them harmful drugs, and maybe cutting off body parts? You have heard of Dr. Gallaghar in Miami?

Why we let people to indoctrinate these impressionable teenagers is beyond my pay grade. Instead of counseling these kids so that they can make adult mature decisions, they are encouraged to be different and quickly before they can change their minds.. They are encouraged to mutilate their bodies, because it is the woke thing to do. It is almost like that young woman who pushed her boyfriend into committing suicide. It is incredible that these things are happening. As we all know, misery loves company. There are plenty of deaf people out these who are against cochlear implants because it takes away from their numbers. Same here with the transgender community which is full of maladjusted individuals who think that by convincing the vulnerable to become part of their community. I wonder how many truly regret their decisions. Plenty, I'd wager.

I can't wait until these woke S.O.B.s get bored with this transgender kerfuffle, and move on to another demented pastime. Maybe they can take up skydiving the new way- without a parachute.

Agree. I think there are something like 28,000 people on a destransitioner/regreter subredit. There must be many more who do not post about it. Then, there are all of us parents who are biting our nails with worry. Schools do what they want. In many places they are indoctrination centers. I do not think there will be any "getting bored" and moving on. I think Gender Ideology has to be put down. The point of GI is to separate the younger generation from family. James Lindsay (New Discourses on youtube) maps out the 1-2 punch of CRT followed by GI. The Woke dominate education, medicine, and government at the moment - including the American Academy of Pediatrics. The media is basically a Woke PR machine.
