Transgenderism of children is Child Abuse

[GilpinGuy]

I know a (former) guy who is trans female, post op. He was sexually abused as a young kid by his grandparents. So, yes, definitely screwed up in the head. It's anecdotal but I'm sure her case is hardly unique.

Oddly, she is a Republican...

There is special red hot fire poker in hell for people that do this shit.

This is what happens when you let your male kids play with rainbow bright...

I think the whole transgender thing is nothing more than the next level in peoples never ending quest of being "special". Once the sexual preference fad of being gay/lesbian wore off something more "Special" needed to top it. Thus Transgender is now the new thing to be when you are screwed in the head and need more attention than what you are currently getting. The few transgender people I know of are SERIOUSLY screwed in the head or will do anything to avoid their adult responsibilities. With these type of people if being labeled as a prancing pony was the next level of special attention they would hop on that bandwagon as well.

For the parents that allow their young children to pretend they want to be something they are not, they need punched in the face repeatedly until they stop being idiots. Young kids have zero understanding of what they want for every day life, much less what gender they think they want to be. What is guaranteed is that young kids will leverage whatever they feel is necessary to manipulate the situation to their favor. You can let a young child run the show, or you can run the show as the parent. One method is effective and the other is not, choose wisely.

After reading the ACP article, the first paragraph states the whole premise.

The American College of Pediatricians urges educators and legislators to reject all policies that condition children to accept as normal a life of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex. Facts – not ideology – determine reality.

This sounds like an extension of the whole "drug the kids" mentality. At least the ACP is saying no to the idiocy.

Kids are being hit with too much shit these days. Let them be kids and figure it out for themselves. They don't need adults to fawk it up for them. Straight or otherwise.

Weed. Put it down. Your apparently reading a ton of words that aren't there.

Haven't touched it since I was 16.

You were pointing out events that probably have happened, but are not very common, just like I was. A heterosexual couple is just as likely to abuse an adopted child either physically or psychologically as a homosexual couple.

I do not believe that is statistically correct.
