During the campaign, it was revealed that Levine, a secretary for health, had interfered with clinical policy by pressing doctors to remove age limits on surgery for trans youth. At least 14,000 children have had their ovaries or penises removed, breasts removed, or been surgically or chemically castrated in America in the past five years. Some are now unable to have orgasms.
Starting to do the rounds as a statistic. And, wayul, I dunno.
On puberty blockers? Yes, believe the number, easily. Surgery? On children? 14k? Really not sure. Not sure to hte ppint of no, I think that’s not a correct number.
This is nothing to do with how vile even one would be. Children – here at least – would be those under 18.
Anyone know where this number has come from? I’d believe it of puberty blockers and just about of corss sex hormones. But of surgery? Hmm…..
“or chemically castrated” — puberty blockers?
The trans madness reaches so deep I can indeed believe it. The ‘first do no harm’ instruction was jettisoned at warp speed by doctors, and I think we can all see the results.
I really dislike this policy.
I believe the proper approach is the reintroduction of hanging.
Boganboy: agreed. The psychopathology involved in its promotion is off the charts. Every enabler too not simply psychologists, surgeons and chemical pushers.
I don’t know about the exact numbers but I can believe they are large because:
The US is a big country with a leftwing political and medical establishment which supports and empowers the trans madness.
Anyone who surgically mutilates a child in this fashion, or passes laws which allow it, should be prosecuted and hanged.
Found elsewhere:
U.S. hospitals charged nearly $120 million over five years for sex-change procedures performed on around 14,000 children, according to new data compiled by medical watchdog Do No Harm.
The first-of-its-kind database, which logs sex-change procedures given to children nationwide between 2019 and 2023, catalogs a total of 5,747 minors who underwent sex-change surgeries, along with 8,579 who obtained puberty blockers or cross sex hormones.
Do No Harm believes the problem is likely even bigger than the data shows. The numbers, which are drawn from insurance claims data across all 50 states, do not include self-pay, charity payments, internal Veterans Affairs claims or patients covered by Kaiser Health Plans.
Surely this creature needs to be subject to a General Court Martial for aiding and abetting Child abuse? Forget pouring anything more into the meat grinder that is Ukraine until you have purged the woke enemy within.
Yes, these numbers are believable.
Look at Kermit Gosnell. Yes he was sent to prison, but not before he had been practicing something (I won’t call it medicine) for decades.
That is only one example of harm. Now multiply it. The US has a lot of people, and a number like this is a small proportion.
Somewhat OT, but it seems to have “got out” that “refugees” in the UK get private health care, paid for by, you know who.
Likely very large shitstorm incoming.
Is this a case of “private health care is bad and should be abolished”? One wonders why a socialist government is willing to pay for it.
It is a wholly believeable number, even without the reference Steve gave.
Fact is that for male or female, about 1%-2% of kids are in the range from bisexual/bicurious to full-on homosexual.
Without the whole body-dysmorphia thing. Otherwise healthy kids who simply have the dimorphic attraction dial not fully turned into one direction, or towards the opposite direction.
It’s one of those biological things where you never get a nice, clean either/or, but a bell curve, with of course “unfortunates” who end up with the short straw.
This generally comes to the fore during puberty, already a period where kids are noted for being the most emotionally stable and rational of creatures…
Leaving them vulnerable to …outside pressure… when it comes to some pretty important life choices.
When that outside pressure becomes a full-on onslaught by Celebrities, Teachers, and Politicians through the Media these kids consume that if you’re slightly off and unhappy you *must* be Trans and should get Surgery. That it’s your Right, even…
Wellll… Propaganda works on the weak of mind.. And you get… results…
74 million children in the US right now. Say… 25million in the puberty range.
That’s 250.000 kids finding out they’re in some way Not Quite Like The Others.
Body Dysmorphia, by all actual scientific data, seems to be a separate issue and seems to happen in the 1:10.000 to 1:25.000 range to those unfortunate enough. Again, ranging from slight discomfort, to severe cases. The severe cases being rare in and of themselves.
So you’d expect there to be roughly 1000 to 1500 cases across the entire US, of which most would not require corrective treatment/surgery to begin with.
Certainly not before adult age is reached, and Big Choices can be made legally and on one’s own conscience.
At any time, across the US, there would be some 100 cases at most where gender reassignment therapy on minors would be on the table to begin with.
Purelay based on statistical incidence.
Any number above that should have eyebrows raised.
A case-rate that is 100 orders of magnitude larger than that….
Well… It isn’t Mother Nature causing that.. What potentially does is up to the reader..
Those suffering from body Dysmorphia often see flaws that don’t exist. They look in the mirror at something quite lovely and see something horrible.
I’ve noticed that women seem to suffer from this quite often. A trim attractive body is viewed in the mirror as bloated and ugly.
Whilst us men suffer an opposite affliction.
Carrie says:
What we have now is a full-on, mask-off, hoods-on witch-hunt dedicated to erasing every aspect of trans people’s rights and safety until the goal of eliminating trans people completely is achieved – a witch-hunt in which the press is gleefully, hatefully complicit.
I actually agree with him. “Trans” isn’t a medical diagnosis, so we should abolish the entire category, cancel their special privileges and stop pretending men can be women.
No human being is “trans”.
Why do people trust doctors? Or medical staff in general?
It’s like they’re some magical race that can do no wrong.
Doctors are just people. They make mistakes, they have agendas and some aren’t even that bright.
Sure, they take the Hypocritical oath. (Not a typo – see the land whales that say you’re eating unhealthily or drinking too much) That doesn’t mean they suddenly become saints.
Some, like Shipman,under their patients. And most in this country happily work for a system that may or may not have thrown a colleague under the bus to protect that shit system from its own failures on a neo-natal ward in Chester. Or the system that happily decides to put people on a ‘Care Pathway’ to death.
We’re one step away from a Canadian system. “You want a wheelchair ramp? Have you considered suicide?”
I just don’t understand it.
Time and again medical staff show themselves to be utter morons like politicians. Why aren’t their pronouncements given the same weight?

VP,
“ Surely this creature needs to be subject to a General Court Martial”.
Stop reinforcing the delusion that playing dress-up Admiral makes you part of the military. I don’t know if it’s worse though than those Attorneys General who insist on being referred to as General (though I’ve only seen that in movies). Walts, the lot of them,
What colour is the boathouse in Transylvania?
Do no harm. Jordan Peterson podcast. These are the *verifiable* numbers that are certain. And scary
To quote ‘Corporal Jones’ ‘They don’t like it up ‘em’ (well actually he probably does but this is the rest of the post Steve linked to from Trans bigot Carrie Bradshaw.) Break out the popcorn! Maybe Hamas will offer him sanctuary!!
The narrative already emerging from the anti-trans commentariat on both sides of the Atlantic is that the Kamala Harris campaign failed because of The Transes. And as always with the anti-trans mob, that’s nonsense. The Harris campaign conceded The Trans Issue – how I hate that phrase – completely: it didn’t feature trans people in its campaigning, it didn’t stand up for trans people, and even when given the opportunity to refute the Republicans’ anti-trans scaremongering in direct questioning – by some estimates, as much as 40% of the Republicans’ ad spending was spent on demonising trans women – Kamala Harris flatly refused to do so, calculatedly throwing trans people under the bus in the hope of winning a few bigots’ votes.
But the problem with offering far right lite is that nobody’s buying it. Time and again, given the choice between full-on evil and slightly less evil, people choose the full-fat version. The supposed good guys concede territory to the bad, and having done that the bad guys demand they concede more.
What far-right lite does do, however, is alienate some of your own voting base – without bringing any of the other side across. When the Democrats weren’t throwing trans people under the bus, they persuaded 6% of registered Republicans to vote Democrat. In this election, that figure didn’t increase. It dropped, to 5%, with the Republicans’ total vote numbers remaining roughly the same as in the last election. This wasn’t an anti-trans swing to Trump.
You cannot meet bigots halfway because they lie about where halfway is. You can see that here in the UK: the supposed “reasonable concerns” (which were never reasonable) over trans people were only supposed to be over changes to the Gender Recognition Act; when they destroyed those changes, the bigots then decided they wanted rid of the Gender Recognition Act, the Equality Act and all other protections for trans people. Supposed concerns over healthcare for under-18s – again, never reasonable – have now expanded to demands for an end to all healthcare for trans adults – demands that as I and many other trans women can attest, are already being met by some GPs and health boards.
The panic is such that organisations are now being attacked for doing things that only the deeply deranged could see through an anti-trans lens; for example this week, Marks & Spencer has been under sustained online and media attack for referring to teenage girls as “bright young things”, a decades-old phrase that the genital-obsessed weirdo brigade have decided is proof of pro-trans pandering.
It’d be some bus you could throw Carrie under.
VP – 🙂
Yes, it is quite bitter.
by some estimates, as much as 40% of the Republicans’ ad spending was spent on demonising trans women
He means the Republican attack ad that was footage of Kamala Harris promising taxpayer funded sex changes for incarcerated criminals, and ended with Kamala Harris is for They/Them. Donald Trump is for you! lol.
But he inadvertently makes a great point. The Western world has tried (been forced to try) tolerating the T, but are finding this is incompatible with, well, society. I mean, nobody wants their daughter sharing public toilets with men, and the more people learn about/interact with transgenderism, the less they support it. Something’s gotta give.
There’s not gonna be a rounding up of transvestites by buff young men in tight fitting uniforms and some sort of Homomodor like these hysterical genderspaz people claim. It’s worse than that, normies are just going to stop humouring them or pretending to respect their made up pronouns.
by some estimates, as much as 40% of the Republicans’ ad spending was spent on demonising trans women
As an American, I have no idea what these estimates are on about.
The ads I saw had TEAM BLUE running on abortionabortionabortion and Trump=fascist. TEAM RED ran mostly on immigration, with some economy stuff.
I should also point out that in 2022 I was in what was this year’s most swing district, although a combination of downsizing my elderly father and Democrats’ gerrymandering NY put me in a neighboring district. That, and watching local news from the Albany TV market but cable having NYC channels meant I saw *a lot* of ads in multiple House races.
There was one ad for Trump that I though that had an effective tagline, “Kamala Harris is working for they/them; Donald Trump is working for you.” But ads in general focused on other issues, even if boys trying to get into girls’ sports was in the national consciousness.
It’s just about possible to argue that gender drugs and surgery can offer some psychological benefit, (Arguably, I repeat.)
But it’s impossible to argue that gender drugs and surgery improve actual physical health. Their long term effects are well known to be chronic illness and early (or earlier than expected) death.
Just look at those East German athletes. Where are most of them now?
Should psychiatrists even have prescribing powers?
Steve
I can’t normally stomach that man’s outpourings. But several points I did note.
The supposed good guys concede territory to the bad, Interesting how grotesque perverts whose existence is an affront to every organised religion are ‘The Good Guys’
Supposed concerns over healthcare for under-18s – again, never reasonable Concern for children is totally unreasonable – they belong to us, don’tcha know.
I think most people generally are ‘live and let live’ (at least those of a right wing disposition) – however frankly when it comes to Carrie I would turn him over to ISIS without a second thought.

There was a comment doing the rounds on X that that Team Trump were very surprised at how well that ad cut through the noise.
Huh, what happened to my quote?
“ There was one ad for Trump that I though that had an effective tagline, “Kamala Harris is working for they/them; Donald Trump is working for you.”
VP – this is who Carrie was quoting before the election:
Given that trans people make up barely half of 1 percent of the US adult population and that trans-related issues are low on the priority list of most voters, many might find it baffling that Trump has focused so much of his attention on singling out trans people. Indeed, two media research groups, the left-leaning Data for Progress and video marketing firm Ground Media, working in partnership with GLAAD, each released studies last week finding that the ads had no real impact on voter decision-making and instead alienated many viewers, even among Republicans, who felt they were “mean-spirited.”
Those ads had no effect, bigots, until they did.
*Tranny nose on* – “Transgender rights are human rights! We must ensure transgender is celebrated in every school and workplace, bigots! Free sex changes for EVERYONE!”
*Tranny nose off* – “Why are you OBSESSED with a tiny minority, bigots?”
