In the biggest ever analysis of transgender care for minors, the Manhattan Institute reviewing more than 4billion insurance claims from 155million people between 2017 and 2023, and found that between 5,288 and 6,294 children under 18 years old had 'top surgeries' over the six years period. Among these, more than 6,000 girls aged 13 to 18 had the 'gender-affirming' surgeries in that time, with between 50 to 179 girls aged 12 years and under who they said had had double-mastectomy, couched by the innocent sounding euphemism “top-surgery.” Yes, this is violence against girls, on a massive scale by the medical industry.
(Note also liberal mainstream media still refuses to report this news. Rather, “reliable media” such as the New York Times continues to pretend society’s concern on transgender medical and surgical treatments on children is some kind of right-wing “War on Trans Kids” by publishing an B.S. opinion piece unsupported by science, such as this: How a Supposedly Scientific Report Became a Weapon in the War on Trans Kids

This week, the institute settled Esses’s complaint for wrongful termination. They issued a statement of full apology, as well as an admission that the treatment proposal advocated by Esses is correct, and the importance of free speech within academic institutions.August 13, 2024 - J.K.

I’ll be honest here, I hope Elon gives his frivolous complaint a good slap-down.

Before claiming he is a woman in 2019, he had won 11 national titles in visually-impaired categories as a man. Will the madness not stop?

Erasing Women and Women’s Safe Spaces
August, 2024 - Big Sister Boston is now a gender ideology indoctrination organization; Welcomes men who says they’re women to mentor little girls
Not a news report, but thanks to a tip from Ovarit.com, we learned that Big Sister Boston openly allows men to volunteer as mentors to minor girls in their program. According to their FAQ, BSB “all who identify as women, girls, non-binary, trans, and gender non-conforming as Big Sisters in our program,” and they “work to ensure that volunteers and Little Sisters are in relationships where both respect one another’s identities.”
Further, on the D&I page, after paying lip service to racial diversity with their performative but genuinely racist act of segregating races into groups, they devoted the entire rest of page to indoctrinating girls step-by-step into gender ideology with flashy training cards. Cute (Not!). Take a look yourself.
Speaking of Boston, a utterly stupid event is being touted as “fighting for women’s right” this weekend.
This is another proof the feminist movement has been hijacked by people who are not serious and are not actually fighting for women’s interest. Reality is, many local laws already allow women to be topless. Sane women do not go around topless not because they’re prohibited or the law is discriminatory. They do not because they haven’t completely lost their minds and do not want strange men to leer at them and invite physical harm to themselves. But this kind of stupid crap is what masquerades as “fighting or women’s rights these days.” Makes one wants to shout, “Hello!!!! Afghanistan calling!! Iran calling!! Maybe your energy and efforts could go to bringing attention to women whose rights are actually suppressed??”

Yay, for American Society of plastic surgeons. It’s about damn time! Sick and tired of doctors looking the other way and acting like this is all perfectly normal.
Why is it called “ gender affirming care” when it is nothing like care but more like mutilation? Amputating healthy breasts should be illegal.
Amputating arms or legs is not done except for shady doctors. This is no different,indeed it is even more life changing in that a woman who has lost her breasts will lose the intimate relationship between herself and her baby , if she ever has one.
