As always, I write to include the women who divorced suddenly crossdressing, demanding husbands in the discussions of transgenderism's damage to society. Here's a short interview from "Juliette," a trans widow with a 4 year old son. Like many of these men who used online sissy hypno pornography, became addicted and went down the trans rabbit hole, he's found another male like himself since she left him. He's less interested in the son, who is confused and feels rejected. Juliette deals with all this while working full time. She spent considerable time finding a therapist who agreed to allow her to call her ex-husband a man--that's how captured the field is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_FbgDOA0Gc
Peter - growing up in Portland (Benson - UofO), I want to thank you for your courage and objectivity. What happened at PSU was epic, hilarious & tragic.
When the subject of gender ideology comes up I always come back to this quote from the journalist Jennifer Bilek:
“The only reason "transgenderism" has entered the cultural lexicon, all our institutions and the law, is corporate profit. Stop thinking about this as some sudden human rights movement that has fallen out of the sky and inspired the whole world in a nano second.
Corporations, Big Banking, Big Tech and Big pharma, all our politicians and governments suddenly care deeply about a tiny part of the population with identity issues? Please. This is so embarrasing and stupid. It's corporately driven for corporate profits with an eye toward more profiteering by unmooring humanity from its roots in sex. This ballderdash of third sex and wrong bodies is nonsense. The human rights movement for same-sex attraction was colonzied by Big Pharma during the AIDS crisis. Suddenly an entire market opened up: LGB are corporatized identities. In 2015 the LGB market was over 900 billion dollars. It is very hard to create any new markets out of sexual identity when you are a sexually dimorphic species. Gender identity changes all that. Enter the normalization of body dissociation via T+ and big corporate propaganda running 24/7 365 days a year for about seven years straight, and you have now generated a market of 3.6 trillion dollars. This is not brain surgery.”
Society keeps talking about what’s happening, with very little focus on why.
The $ Billions being made by surgeons and big pharma in the gender cult is a big factor. They make $1,500,000 per patient. Here is a breakdown: $200,000 to $300,000 for the surgery, and $1,200,000 fo the non FDA approved drugs they must take for the rest of their lives. This cult is being pushed by big corporations that want us to think it is an authentic mental issue. Follow the money.
If I heard you correctly, Peter, not understanding why people disagree with you about or caring about calling men women or vice versa by preferred pronouns, it’s a huge disservice and disrespect to the immutability of sex and those that belong to that sex. Would you extend the same to people who wanted to be transracial? It’s not that far fetched with plastic surgery, color enhancement, etc. for individuals to decide that they have a different racial soul, or to argue that their race is “assigned” at birth. It’s participating in a charade that breaches reality in a harmful way.
Reasonable points. In future videos, Mia presses me on this with increasingly bizarre examples, but yet those examples must be considered so that the ethical framework can be demarcated.
A clarification. If I’m offended by what you say, that’s on me and who really cares- sticks and stones. It’s about being asked, sometimes coerced, into bending realty.
Agreed, the level of acceptable absurdity keeps changing even when reality is apparent. As a woman, I am offended when a man is referred to as female just as, I think a black person would be offended by a white person pretending to be black, ie Rachel Polezal. It becomes an instinctual offense when someone is pissing on your leg and telling you it’s raining.
I won't be sending you money to comment on your other transphobic post, so I'm replying here.
To your comment, "Again, there's no empirical test for trans. It's based on self-reports." My reply is,
Firstly, that’s not a grammatical sentence. Are you so dismissive you refuse to give your adjective a noun so it can exist within sense?
Secondly, there’s no empirical test for gender at all. Obviously. That's really the whole point. The title of your post is either disingenuous or evidence of your confusion since no one is arguing that anyone is born trans because no one is born into a gender—it's imposed culturally. No one is born an asshole either; one becomes an asshole over time within the construct of social mores, norms, and ethics.
Thirdly, there’s no empirical definition for biological sex. I can tell that you didn’t follow the link and still don’t know what you’re talking about. It sounds like you don’t know what you don’t know and wouldn’t even be able to accurately frame the argument of people who believe being trans is a legitimate identity. That’s when one can realize a person is simply ideological and desiring so badly to have a public opinion over which other people will fondle and swoon. You can’t effectively debate something when you don’t understand the argument you’re debating.
The gender ideology is the original one that says if you have a penis you're a boy who will grow up to act like Y and if you have a vagina, you're a girl and you'll grow up to act like X. What else do you think that is if not a gender ideology? You think it's just nature for men to wear pants and women to wear dresses?

Thanks, Fly. I appreciate your kind words. It seems like a lifetime ago, no?

See the whistleblowing of Eithan Haim. He discussed this in a video we shot with him about a year ago. Truly insane.

Peter-
Great episode and I completely agree.
The Supreme Court ruled in Lee Boyd Malvo (DC sniper) v Maryland that an adolescent male's brain is not fully developed until mid 20's
Thanks. I appreciate that. We have some deep dives on the way!
Awesome! Looking forward to it!
I very much appreciate your ability to bring critical thinking to these issues!
Cheers!

I don’t mean to tell anyone how to think, but I’d appreciate some feedback on something I wrote on Substack. Any respectful and meaningful comments that help me understand this issue more clearly is welcome! https://open.substack.com/pub/ndeslattes/p/transgender-care-claim-exploration?r=40kzdt&utm_medium=ios
