Mom Forbidden to See Teen Daughter After Refusing to Pretend She’s the Opposite Sex

/0 Comments/in , /by

Jeanette Cooper, a mom in Chicago, has missed her daughter’s 13th, 14th, and 15th birthdays. She doesn’t get to be there as her daughter is learning to drive. In fact, she has only seen Sophia for eight and a half hours in the last three years. That’s because Cooper lost custody of her daughter after refusing to go along with Sophia’s belief that she is transgender.

When Sophia was 12, Cooper went to pick her up from a custodial visit at her father’s house, but her daughter refused to come home. Cooper learned that Sophia, whom the mother said had always come across as more feminine than Cooper, now identified as transgender and felt “unsafe” around her mom.

In a video interview with Kelsey Bolar for the Independent Women’s Forum, Cooper said the court did a seven-month investigation. “When they temporarily kept her with her dad for a period, I was fine with that. I thought that’s what they should do. That’s the responsibility of the court to investigate if a child is saying that they feel unsafe,” Cooper said.

But Cooper wouldn’t lie and say her daughter was not a girl. “They want me to have a certain understanding that there is such a thing as a child who is born transgender, and this is who they are,” Cooper said, as noted in an article Bolar wrote telling her story. “I do not believe that to be true. I will not lie to the court. I will not state otherwise. I believe too strongly in my oath to tell the truth. My child is a girl, and I won’t lie to her or anyone else. I think that’s good parenting.”

According to the article, Cooper signed a new parenting agreement in which she gave up time with Sophia. “I suppose I agreed to it,” Cooper said. “I’m not sure I had any choice.” According to Bolar’s article, “In return for giving up her ability to spend time with her daughter, Jeannette negotiated for a legal commitment that Sophia will not medically transition without a court order or Jeannette’s written permission. She also retained the ability to contact Sophia by postal mail.” (Read more from “Mom Forbidden to See Teen Daughter After Refusing to Pretend She’s the Opposite Sex” HERE)

Children’s Gender Clinic Founder Was a Consultant for Puberty Blocker Manufacturers

/0 Comments/in , /by

The co-founder and director of a clinic that aids in children’s sex change attempts, Dr. Stephen Rosenthal, has received money as a consultant from two pharmaceutical companies that are both under investigation for advertising puberty blockers.

Rosenthal is the cofounder and medical director of the University of California San Francisco Benioff Children’s Hospital’s Child and Adolescent Gender Center.

He received $38,704 from pharmaceutical companies between the years of 2015 and 2021, more than 98% of United States endocrinologists did, according to a report from Care Dash, a site that uses public records to track the money that doctors have received as compensation from pharmaceutical companies.

Of that sum, $16,765 came from Endo Pharmaceuticals and AbbVie; payments were linked directly to their products Supprelin LA and Lupron, which are both used off-label as puberty blockers for children who are attempting to change their sex. Public records reveal that Rosenthal has accepted consulting fees from both AbbVie and Endo Pharmaceuticals.

In 2018, Rosenthal received the third highest amount of any doctor in America in compensation related to Supprelin LA, ProPublica reported. (Read more from “Children’s Gender Clinic Founder Was a Consultant for Puberty Blocker Manufacturers” HERE)

School District Requires Assisting Child ‘Gender Transition,’ Lying to Parents

/0 Comments/in , /by

Maryland’s Montgomery County Public Schools is requiring teachers and administrators to both facilitate a child’s “gender transition” and lie to that child’s parents about it, according to district-wide guidance.

The school district also appears to promote a parental reeducation plan for those who are “nonsupportive.”

Montgomery County employees are required to refer to a student by their preferred name and pronouns — the ones the student believes correspond to their chosen gender identity as opposed to the name their parents gave them and the pronouns that correspond to their actual biological sex.

Despite that, the guidance makes clear that the references to what the student prefers should not be made when contacting parents in an effort to hide the child’s gender ideation and the school’s facilitation of it.

According to the guidance, disclosing a student’s transgender status to parents may violate federal privacy laws, as it constitutes “confidential medical information.” (Read more from “School District Requires Assisting Child ‘Gender Transition,’ Lying to Parents” HERE)

Children’s entertainment network Nickelodeon will introduce familiar movie characters — only this time, it will include their pronouns.

Monster High The Movie, airing Oct. 6, has already released an interaction between two characters sharing their pronouns with each other in a recent preview. In the clip, Frankie Stein claims the pronouns they/them, and Clawdeen claims she/her.

This live-action musical film is a retelling of an animated web series that began on YouTube in 2010. Nickelodeon’s recent iteration comes out of a 2021 partnership with Mattel Television, which also created a line of dolls of the main characters, who are all teenage monsters. An additional animated series will follow.

The Left’s Latest Frontier in the Trans Craze? Ban Misgendering Skeletons

/0 Comments/in , /by

Was Julius Caesar male or female? Be careful not to assume, or you might offend the dead emperor.

These are the new rules being thrust upon academics, as chronicled by the conservative education-based publication The College Fix on Monday.

“Gender activists push to bar anthropologists from identifying human remains as ‘male’ or ‘female,’” the headline reads.

The paper outlines a movement in anthropology to adopt the left’s new orthodoxy on sex, by which it already dishes out retribution against those who refuse to play along.

“As soon as ancient human remains are excavated, archaeologists begin the work of determining a number of traits about the individual, including age, race and gender,” The College Fix reported. “But gender activists argue scientists cannot know how an ancient individual identified themselves.”

A group called the “Trans Doe Task Force” has begun the process of exploring “ways in which current standards in forensic human identification do a disservice to people who do not clearly fit the gender binary.” (Read more from “The Left’s Latest Frontier in the Trans Craze?

Trans “Woman” Impregnated 2 Inmates in Women’s Prison Moved to Male Facility

/0 Comments/in , /by

An incarcerated transgender [“woman”] has been accused of impregnating two fellow inmates at a New Jersey women’s prison. The incident prompted officials to move Demi Minor, 27, from the Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women to the Garden State Youth Correctional Facility last month. The latter is a prison for young adults in Burlington County.

Dan Sperrazza, a Department of Corrections spokesman, told NJ.com that the DOC moved Minor to the vulnerable unit at the facility where [he] is the only [“woman”] prisoner at present. Minor’s move comes months after it was revealed [he] had impregnated two fellow inmates after engaging in “consensual sexual relationships with another incarcerated person.”

New Jersey enacted a policy in 2021 that allows prisoners to be housed according to their preferred gender identity. The policy was part of a settlement from a civil rights suit that a woman forced to live in men’s prisons for 18 months had brought. However, Minor claimed in a blog that [he] was being forced to stay with male prisoners. (Read more from “Trans “Woman” Impregnated 2 Inmates in Women’s Prison Moved to Male Facility” HERE)

Trans Woman Returns to Life as Man and Takes Aim at the ‘Activist’ Doctor Who Turned His Life Upside Down

/0 Comments/in , /by

After living nearly a decade of his life as a transgender woman named Brianna, Brian Wagoner ultimately came to realize his transition had been a mistake. In February, the 31-year-old made the decision to detransition back to his biological gender and live once again as a man.

“It was basically like medical professionals cheering on a girl with bulimia for puking up her lunch when her ribs are already poking out,” he said of the estrogen treatment he was put on for years. “There’s a lot of money to be made by doctors here. They see the dollar signs, and in the end, money talks.”

Wagoner reached out to The Post after reading an article in June that profiled two young women who regretted transitioning to men in their teens. One of those detransitioners, Chloe Cole, who had a double mastectomy, is now campaigning for a Florida rule that will block Medicaid funds from paying for medical interventions in cases like hers. . .

As a closeted teen, Wagoner began dabbling in drugs, and by the time he transferred from a junior college to the University of La Verne in California to study sociology at age 20, he said, he was regularly using marijuana, ecstasy, Adderall and cocaine that he got from friends and dealers at his school. He said he began experiencing withdrawal, was staying up for days on end, and even contemplated suicide. . .

Desperate for a lifeline, in early 2012, he started searching for information about the transgender movement on YouTube and found a clinical social worker based in Los Angeles who made videos about trans people. He made an appointment to see her. During their first in-person session, he said, she immediately told him he could be transgender.

Biden Admin Drops $1.5 Million on ‘Transgender Programming’ for Inmates

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration spent nearly $1.5 million to produce a “transgender programming curriculum” for inmates held in the nation’s 122 federal prisons.

The Justice Department disbursed the funds for a consulting firm to develop a program to help transgender inmates “manage identity concerns during incarceration” and advocate for their “sexual health and safety,” according to a government summary of the contract. The contract also asks the firm to develop a program to help transgender inmates access hormone treatment after they are released.

There are only about 1,200 transgender individuals serving sentences in federal prisons, according to a 2021 Department of Justice estimate, meaning the Biden administration spent roughly $1,250 per transgender prisoner. That is more than the $1,200 checks Americans received during the first round of COVID-19 stimulus payments.

The Justice Department’s $1,496,500 contract is part of President Joe Biden’s larger, controversial effort to promote transgenderism—even among minors. The Justice Department in March sent a letter to all state attorneys general warning them against restricting transgender hormone treatment for children. That same month, Biden’s State Department announced it would allow individuals to select “X” as their gender when completing passport applications. The administration also released updated guidelines in January that make it easier for transgender inmates to be placed in facilities that match their “gender identity.”

Following a district court ruling last month, a convicted terrorist is set to become the first transgender inmate to receive federally funded sex-reassignment surgery, the Washington Free Beacon reported. The American Civil Liberties Union, a Biden administration ally, waged the successful legal battle on behalf of Cristina Iglesias, who in 2005 mailed fake anthrax to British government office buildings.

Woke Church of England Refuses to Define the Word ‘Woman’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Church of England refused to offer up a definition of a woman, arguing that recent developments required “additional care” when attempting to define the word.

“There is no official definition, which reflects the fact that until fairly recently definitions of this kind were thought to be self-evident, as reflected in the marriage liturgy,” Senior Bishop Rt Rev Robert Innes said when asked to define the word, according to reporting from GB News.

Innes’ remarks came in response to a question posed by lay member Adam Kendry during the General Synod, who asked: “What is the Church of England’s definition of a woman?”

The Bishop argued that the definition of a woman used to be “self-evident” but no longer had a simple answer.

The comments sparked widespread criticism, with GB News personality Calvin Robinson arguing that offering a definition should not be difficult. (Read more from “Woke Church of England Refuses to Define the Word ‘Woman’” HERE)
