Gender Ideology Run Amok

True gender identity is rare, impacting about 0.01% of the population, most of whom are male. Yet today, we see literally thousands of young girls electing “gender affirming” therapy (without the parents’ consent), doctors misrepresenting the effect of puberty blockers, organizations who claim they wish to protect women steering teenage girls into medications which the FDA has never approved for halting puberty, while a new industry has sprung up which lobbies and receives tax payer dollars to support their self-interests. In the UK, there has been a 4,400 per cent increase in girls seeking treatment at national gender clinics. At the same time, gender ideology seeks to eradicate girls’ and women’s safe spaces. In California and Washington State, hundreds of biological males have suddenly found their true gender and are applying for transfers to women’s units. Who are the drivers behind this warped movement and what is their goal? The excellent article by Abigail Shrier in Imprimis examines both the problem and the need for parents to be aware of the terrible damage that is facing our young, mostly, girls.
