Top Pediatrician: US Medical Establishment Is ‘Misleading’ the Public About the Science Behind Child Sex Changes

The British medical establishment was long captive to gender ideology. It is now coming to terms with the error of its ways, having realized that the supposed “right side of history” where the trans-activist flag waves proudly is actually the province of pseudoscience, misery, and mutilation.

Dr. Hilary Cass, a British medical doctor who previously served as president of the Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health, hammered the final nail into the coffin for the “gender-affirming care” narrative in April.

Cass, a highly esteemed recipient of the Order of the British Empire, was appointed by the National Health Service in England in 2020 to lead an independent investigation into Britain’s sex-change regime and its youth facing services. Her 388-page final report — released shortly after England effectively banned the prescription of puberty blockers and shuttered the infamous Tavistock child gender-identity clinic — made abundantly clear that the evidence in support of “gender-affirming care” was “weak” at best.

In addition to highlighting unreliable science and the fallout of sex-change interventions, Cass noted that sex-change procedures did not impact suicide risk or deliver on other promised results and that mutilated children may likely have otherwise outgrown their confusion.

These conclusions sent various radicals into fits of rage. Cass has since become a popular target, even for some leftist lawmakers.

Cass recently expressed amazement that whereas Britain is now pumping the brakes on its mutilatory practices — joining the ranks of other Western nations like Finland and Norway — the American medical establishment is ostensibly speeding along with reckless abandon.

The WPATH Tapes: Behind-Scenes Recordings Reveal What Top Gender Doctors Really Think about Sex-Change Procedures

The World Professional Association for Transgender Health, or WPATH, is the leading authority in the field of gender medicine. Its guidance is routinely used by top medical associations in the U.S. and abroad, while its standards of care inform insurance companies’ approach to coverage policies.

But behind closed doors, top WPATH doctors discussed, and at times seemed to challenge, the organization’s own published guidelines for sex-change procedures and acknowledged pushing experimental medical interventions that can have devastating and irreversible complications, according to exclusive footage obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

WPATH published highly influential clinical guidance called “Standards of Care for the Health of Transgender and Gender Diverse People, Version 8,” or SOC 8, which recommends the use of invasive medical interventions such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and sex change surgeries, calling them “safe and effective.”

The Daily Caller News Foundation filed a series of public records requests to the World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s SOC 8 co-authors who are employed at taxpayer-funded institutions, making their emails subject to open records laws.

Buried in more than 100 pages of responsive records from the University of Nevada was a series of emails sent in 2022 among prominent WPATH members and leaders, including WPATH Global Education Institute Co-Chair Gail Knudson.

J.K. Rowling Received Backlash for Saying This About a ‘Trans’ Person

This week, best-selling author J.K. Rowling was accused of “bullying” after she called a so-called “transgender” soccer manager a “straight, white, middle-aged bloke” on social media. Rowling’s statement came after a new law was enacted in Scotland that makes “misgendering” someone a crime.

“When I was young all the football managers were straight, white, middle-aged blokes, so it’s fantastic to see how much things have changed,” Rowling wrote on X on Saturday with a photo of Lucy Clark, the world’s first “openly transgender football manager,” according to Daily Mail.

Daily Mail shared that Rowling received backlash for “comparing” Clark to a “straight, white, middle-aged bloke.”

“I didn’t compare him to one. He IS one,” Rowling doubled-down.

VIDEO: ‘Transgender Woman’ Accused of Running over Victim Before Kissing, Stabbing Body

A suspect who is reportedly transgender is accused of a horrific murder that happened on Woodridge Square Drive in Houston, Texas, on May 3.

As victim Steven Anderson, 64, was walking to pick up mail, a car approach him from behind, ABC 13 reported Friday.

The outlet noted that “the suspect is 20-year-old Karon Fisher, identified in court records as a man but also described as a woman by police.” The New York Post said Fisher is “reportedly a transgender woman.”

The car hit the victim, then the driver reversed and hit him again. As community members who saw what happened dialed 911 for help, the suspect produced a knife and approached the victim. The suspect then flipped his body over and straddled him before kissing him.

Seconds later, the suspect allegedly stabbed the victim nine times before walking away from the scene. Video footage shows the incident as the suspect, who has bleached blonde hair and is wearing a black bra and high-waisted black shorts, leans over the victim.

Video Shows Female Student Confront Trans Woman in Campus Bathroom

A video shot on the campus of Western Carolina University last week shows a female student challenging a transgender woman’s right to use a girls’ bathroom, Fox News Digital reported.

The student who filmed the video, Payton McNabb, had previously sustained mental and physical injuries as a high school volleyball player when a transgender opponent spiked a ball in her face, according to Fox News Digital.

The video uploaded to Twitter last week appears to show McNabb approaching the transgender woman and asking, “Why are you in the girls’ bathroom?”

The unidentified individual responds, “I’m a trans girl.” McNabb replies, “But you’re not a girl.”

“Interesting, I’ve never had this before. I don’t know what to say, I’m sorry you feel that way,” the transgender woman says. (Read more from “Video Shows Female Student Confront Trans Woman in Campus Bathroom” HERE)

Top University Medical Students Learn That ‘Gender Is a Social Construct’ and How to ‘End Racism’

If there’s a kind of professional you had to trust with your life, most people’s first choice would likely be a medical doctor.

However, up-and-coming doctors are no longer being taught about medicine — but rather being indoctrinated with left-wing propaganda.

The George Washington University School of Medicine & Health Sciences is no exception. Some of its courses include “How to talk about race, power, and privilege in classroom and clinical settings” and “Beyond the binary: Navigating pregnancy and affirming care for people with diverse gender identities.”

Another course titled, “Confronting U.S. History: We must end racism to end health disparities” features a webinar session with Nikole Hannah-Jones, who created the 1619 project. . .

But George Washington University isn’t the only one propagandizing its students. At the Indiana University School of Medicine, first-year students in basic anatomy classes are taught that “gender is a social construct” and that “sex and gender fall along a continuum, rather than being binary constructs.” (Read more from “Top University Medical Students Learn That ‘Gender Is a Social Construct’ and How to ‘End Racism'” HERE)

Trans Runner Dominates Women’s Events With Times That Would Place Last Among Men

Transgender college runner Sadie Schreiner won three women’s events at the Liberty League championship meet (Division III) on Saturday.

Schreiner of the Rochester Institute of Technology won the 400 meters with a time of 55.07 and the 200 meters at 24.14.

Both times would have been last in the men’s races at the meet, but they were school records in the women’s category, according to the site that lists the results of the meet.

The 200-meter time is now a Liberty League conference women’s record (beating Schreiner’s own previous record of 24.50 set earlier this season).

Schreiner was also the anchor leg of the 4×400 that won by nearly three seconds – they were in fourth place when Schreiner received the baton, but she ran the fastest anchor leg of the race. (Read more from “Trans Runner Dominates Women’s Events With Times That Would Place Last Among Men” HERE)

Six States Sue Biden Admin Over New Title IX Protections for Biological Men in Girls’ Sports

Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti and Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman announced on Tuesday that they are leading six states in suing the Department of Education (ED) due to the overhaul of Title IX of the Educational Amendments Act.

Court documents show that the lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.

The Biden administration has unveiled new rules aimed at safeguarding LGBTQ+ students and changing the ways in which sexual harassment and assault claims are adjudicated on campus.

Skrmetti and Coleman are targeting new provisions that are part of a revised Title IX regulation issued by the ED, fulfilling a campaign pledge by President Biden to revamp those issued during the Trump administration.

“The U.S. Department of Education has no authority to let boys into girls’ locker rooms,” Tennessee Attorney General Skrmetti said in a statement. (Read more from “Six States Sue Biden Admin Over New Title IX Protections for Biological Men in Girls’ Sports” HERE)

Landmark Shift Against Gender Ideology: Sex Defined as Biological Sex

The transgender agenda, the belief that men can simply say they are women and they are women, has hit headwinds with a new decision by the National Health Service in the United Kingdom.

A report in the Telegraph explains that the organization that serves the health care concerns of millions has proposed a definition change that states sex is a matter of biology.

The report noted that’s a “landmark shift against gender ideology.”

The change means, among other things, that men who claim to be women now are banned from women-only wards, and women have the right to request a female physician for intimate care.

The changes are coming as part of an update to the organization’s constitution that is required to be reviewed every 10 years, and last was done in 2015. (Read more from “Landmark Shift Against Gender Ideology: Sex Defined as Biological Sex” HERE)

States Reject Biden’s ‘Illegal’ and ‘Unconstitutional’ Title IX Rewrite

Florida and Oklahoma have instructed their schools to reject implementation of new Title IX rules proposed by the Biden administration that allow males “identifying” as females to invade women’s spaces.

“We are not going to let Joe Biden try to inject men into women’s activities,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a Thursday video statement. “We will not comply.”

As my colleague Jordan Boyd previously reported, the new guidelines released by the Education Department last week “effectively erase protections for sex-based spaces by expanding the Title IX prohibition against sex discrimination to include ‘gender identity’ — a term that’s never mentioned in the original law.” This means that men proclaiming to be women will be permitted to use female-only spaces such as locker rooms and sororities and participate in female-only sports leagues.

The rules — which are set to take effect on Aug. 1 — also repeal existing free speech protections, parental rights, and safeguards for individuals accused of sexual assault.

DeSantis’ comments came a day after Florida Commissioner on Education Manny Diaz Jr. penned a letter stating that “no educational institution [in the state] should begin implementing any changes” to Title IX put forward by the Biden administration. Diaz argued that the federal government’s reimagining of the law is an “attempt to gaslight the country into believing that biological sex no longer has any meaning.” (Read more from “States Reject Biden’s ‘Illegal’ and ‘Unconstitutional’ Title IX Rewrite” HERE)
