Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.

    I have a 20-year old ASD daughter who claimed to be pansexual all through high school. Never really quite fit in at school. I continuously taught her how your gender is how you pee and which dr you go to (gynecologist or urologist) and that everything else is your personality. I told her how i was a tomboy growing up but that didn’t mean i should identify as a boy. I taught her about all the power and beauty in being female and to be proud of it. Trust me....It was a lot of work! I was also very brutally honest about the side effects of these treatments and how they can affect fertility. She recently announced she’s not pansexual anymore and she thanked me for sticking with the truth even when she hated me for it.

    As a therapist, the state of California has taken away our right to help children process gender dysphoria! Now we can lose our license if we try to help children discover their identity, True identity of who they are instead of pushing an agenda on them!! 😡 It’s a sad case and state of mind that we are living in this world that wants to push this on our children, and destroying their lives, without allowing them to grow into adulthood and make this decision🥲💔! I truly appreciate this discussion you guys are having their at Hillsdale college allowing her to come and speak and help us to understand what is happening to these people who are just trying to figure out who they are. God bless you and God bless her for her boldness as a journalist to come forth with truth 🙏❤️🙏

    On a personal level i never had a problem with that 'girl'. I think i kinda liked it actually, as im curious and not exactly middle of the road myself. However, im 62 now and what ive learned is that those seemingly little things, can have a rather big effect on society as a whole. So i think that in order to keep society healthy, there has to be some pressure to conform to social rules and customs. But again, me personally, i wouldnt be good in doing so, bc im too 'soft'. Which is most likely also a result of 'feminism' (which is not a good force in society at all)

    @@2009jadeorchid Probably bc most girls dont have a decent eye hand coordination when it comes to balls. ;p You have to start somewhere, so they generalise based on that, but im sure if you can do it, its no problem. Didnt use to be when i was young anyway. So if you have to start, its better to start underhand for several reasons. One is coordination learning, another is that if u arent physically fit, overhead puts a lot more strain on your back and can then easily lead to injuries. I played volleyball for some 25 years, mostly males, but we had females too at times. Most served under hand. Quite some men did too. Most can also place better when doing underhand, as opposed to overhead serving.

    They got to my daughter and it was only after "top surgery" that she realized that she'd been a female all along and had just let a "friend" convince her otherwise. Like in so many of these cases, her friends, doctors and councilors warned her not to talk to her parents about it because we wouldn't have her best interests in mind. Now that she's done what she can to de-transition, those people who said they only cared about what was best for her are nowhere to be found.

    As a teenager, I did not like being so tall. I did not feel comfortable being tall. I felt I should be a short person. And guess what, overtime I became comfortable with my height and discovered the many benefits, like being able to reach things and help shorter people at the grocery store, etc. It's all about accepting and embracing yourself and being the best human being you can be! And feelings are changeable, so don't put much stock in how you feel at any given moment because those feelings can change. Making permanent life changes on "feelings" is very risky indeed and may end up causing more problems and unhappiness.

    It is risky to just make life-changing decisions over mere feelings. This is why trans people want anyone who's feeling like they're transgender to give through therapy before making any decisions to change their body. We want to make sure that someone is indeed transgender and feeling gender dysphoria because of identity, not because of body issues or not being a gender stereotypes. It's why even though many of my friends are happy as tomboys, I chose to come out as nonbinary. It's not because I didn't fit gender roles, I just never saw myself as a man or a woman from as early as I can remember looking in the mirror as a child. I always saw a nonbinary person staring back at me. I find it quite beautiful actually, I'm just a nonbinary me.

    That's funny. I am a woman that wanted to be a boy. During my teen years I thought it advantageous to be a boy. Did I feel like a boy? I didn't even consider such a thing. I just wanted to be taller, stronger and I also noted boys were listened to quickly. As a short girl at the time I felt ignored. Now I took the time to consider that I would not be taller, I would not be much stronger as a boy so it was unrealistic to even pursue. I don't know what it feels like to be a woman inside, I'm just me. And I've never found anyone that could tell me....well other than the terrible mood swings of my younger years and the horrific monthly pain for at least 1 week every month. That's the only noticeable difference I see.

    For the "mutilation" aspect, It's a double standard how they said trans people are mutilating their bodies when they clearly wouldn't say that about someone who needed an amputation, or removed their breasts because they had to, or even those who get plastic surgery trans surgeries aren't a choice. Having top surgery for example as a trans man isn't a choice, he didn't choose to have dysphoria and he didn't choose to be trans. The treatment for dysphoria is to transition, and depending on the person that transition may be just social or it may be medical/surgical. But that's the same as how treatment for anxiety may be therapy, but it may also be medication. The patient doesn't choose which one they do, it's whichever one alleviates their anxiety the best. In the same way, a person doesn't choose if they only need social transition; if that's not enough, then they need to have top surgery.

    When I was a young girl, I totally thought anything “girly” was lame (still do for the most part) and I also hated my body (I’m happy with my body now.). I also thought being child free would be wonderful so if someone told me that being g sterile was a risk from puberty blockers, that would have been just fine with me. I fear I would have totally been taken in by this trans movement had I been born today and that would have been a shame. I’m happily married with two wonderful kids and I love being a woman.

    You're right, exposing people to transgender ideology will further confuse them and will make them doubt themselves enough to take serious action, the more you expose people to it the more people will decide to label themselves as something they're not and the more normal that cultural change becomes, the more those numbers of "trans" people will increase. Edit: I changed trans to "trans" because I'm talking about those people who get influenced by ideology and think they're trans when they're completely healthy with no gender dysphoria but that want to change their sex anyway.

    And that would solve so many things in my humble opinion, if women who feel rather masculine and men who feel feminine were allowed to just be that way, whatever that might entail (behavior, clothes, hobbies, sexual preferences etc). Just as we've accepted in industrialized countries that woman can wear trousers, short hair etc, and still be women, we could accept men wearing dresses, long hair, heels, and still be men. It wouldn't be so weird, it has happened before in history. And there would be a small minority of people who would feel an irresistible urge to go through surgery and hormones once they are adults, but most people would probably be ok with just adopting whatever features they want from their own sex or the opposite one.

    To label a person a tomboys* or "girly-girl" should be stopped. We should not be labeling people. if you do not want to wear dresses, like go to outside and fix things rather then be inside baking cookies, wearing dresses does not make one a tomboy. It makes them a girl with their own special wants, desires, and cares. Same with a girl who likes to be fancy, dress up or whatever does not make them a girly-girl, it makes them a girl who likes to be fancy. just live life.

Some of the principles didn't even know things were being taught that weren't part of their curriculums and teachers just did it anyway! It's honestly disappointing when on KZread there's teachers saying how they're going to teach this stuff regardless of consequences! It's like some of them just don't care as long as they can get this message out they've won in their minds! Crt , transgender things, along with many of the things pertaining to LGBTQwxyz! Kids are so far behind because of forced stay home's!

    @Elizabeth Whitehouse I agree with most of what you said, but I feel it's 100% the parents' responsibilities to teach their children the things schools don't teach them like manners, respectfulness, judging people on their character and not their skin color, about racism and finally to treat others the same way you'd expect to be treated. Once children are out of grade school and in high school, there are some other things that can be taught! I do feel a lot of children don't have the best parents, and some parents are still learning themselves! But some parents are horrible and it's likely their children will follow their parents' footsteps! Children learn by examples and often mirror the ones set by their parents ! Ignorant parents Ignorant kid's! What's the other stuff you feel that should be taught in school ?

    Im a gay man, and when I was young before really understanding what gay was, I thought I may have been 'in the wrong body' and always felt more feminine. In my teens I didn't really wish to be masculine or feminine, but i knew I was gay. It wasn't until in my 20s I felt comfortable being male and having masculine traits. I feel like if I was a youth now days and told anyone I didn't feel male back then, I would have potentially been pushed down the the trans route. I feel like the trans agenda is being pushed like a trend and a quick fix.

You would have to first talk to multiple doctors and therapists that actually specialize in this topic, (unlike the speaker in this video) have a conversation about blockers, take blockers, and then if you have the money (most trans kids don't) you can then fully transition after you become a legal adult. I'm not saying you are not a man, I'm just saying wouldn't be "pushed into" being trans... that's not how it works.

    Yes.... but those that "self declare" will not submit themselves to proper psychoanalysis to make sure that they are not deluded before they do anything irreversible. That is foolish and has resulted in the many trying to change back again afterwards (not really possible 100%). My own appointments with a psychologist were such a relief. I was not that fussy which sex I was, as long as I felt OK in it. The sense of self identity for gender is a matter or brain structure (well proved decades ago) and we can't change that so do what we can to make the body fit the mind a bit better.It's not perfect of course, but it does make life better. I am almost 79 now and never had one second's regret about transitioning, and every one that I know that regrets it did not go through all the filters beforehand. As Abigail says, real gender dysphoria (transsexuality) is very rare in those born male and ten times more rare in someone born female.....so it does beg the question "why the sudden flush of young women wanting to be men?".... yes it's a fad, and the lawsuits later on will be colossal when most of them find out that they were deluded about their self identity.

    Yes, I was fine with being a girl (in the 80s toys weren't so divided into pink/blue) but I wanted to grow up to be a man and not a woman. Why? Because the women I saw were too stressed and busy to play, always cooking and staying inside, and the men were laughing with friends and joking around and always ready to wrestle with the kids. Well, turns out I did become a woman, a stay at home mom to three kids no less, and I unfortunately do spend more time cooking and staying indoors than I'd prefer. However, I also joke around and wrestle with the kids (my husband didn't grow up with rough housing and didn't do that with our kids, and I'm like, "somebody's got to dangle them upsidedown and chase them" so I do it and it's really fun, no wonder my dad and uncles were always playing like that!) And I spend time with my friends, my life isn't as dedicated to making a "perfect home" the way my mom's generation was pressured to be. (It's more relaxing these days, I think. It always seemed like she was in a competition over dusting and such, even with her friends. I don't feel that pressure, or rather, I feel it but it's easier to ignore. So I'm not as good as my sister-in-law at keeping a clean house... It's fine, I'm okay with that, I'm good at other things. My mom was also more creative rather than fastidious, but instead of shrugging and doing her thing, she felt ashamed and tried harder.) So, turns out being a woman isn't as bad as I thought, plus I get to stay home with the children without people looking at me sideways! 👍

    @Elizabeth Whitehouse I do believe you are possibly being deliberately obtuse. Of course everyone of your ilk knows of Vanderbilt Medical Center and Dr. Shayne Taylor who bragged about the huge amount of money the surgeries were bringing in, not the huge amount of difference they were making in these kids' lives. .Of course, those surgeries have now been suspended and of course, they state all "minors under the age of 18". They are not going to admit this was performed on younger patients, but, again, NO child, minor, of that age can make life altering decisions. If you had a kid who wanted to get married, they would need your okay to do so. But what would you think if the government told your kid "NAH, DON''T listen to your mom. she doesn't REALLY know you/UNDERSTAND you, only YOU know yourself. SHHHH, we will go ahead and marry you anyway. BTW, you ARE 16 and 1 day old, right?" WOW!! Only difference is, marriage can be absolved, this surgery cannot be!! WAKE UP!!

    Janice Clark-Espinoza 0 seconds ago My daughter falls into this category of girls. As her mother, I know for a fact that she does not have gender dysphoria. She was a girlie girl up until she was 15. What no one is talking about is how this phenomenon is affecting the parents and families of these children. As her mom, I am devastated by the choices she has made for herself at such a young age and angry with the whole system that has supported her in these decisions. I am desperate to save her but helpless in doing so. I am crying and so sad as I write this. She is all I see and think about.😔

    I am a mother of a now "trans-boy". I was blind-sided by all of what happened just as many are. Schools, councilors, media and even the govenment back this abuse of our children. I was alone and not powerful enough in my voice to help my daughter. Janice keep watching videos. For my "child" it is already too late I expect in the future I will hear a lot of tears as she realizes that it wasn't a proper choice for her.. But as this brilliant Albigail Shier says the families are torn apart. My daughter/child is no longer speaking to me and even though I try i am held "impotent" in my desire to help her. I personally speak my mind in Public now. I wish I could remember some of the excellent videos i have watched. What I recal is a women who did NOT accept it and made her daughter know it. She saved her child... I did not. My "prayers" go out to all of us that have been traumatized and affected by this. My apologies Janice, I feel your pain...

    You should have her read reports of people who have actually undergone hormone therapy for an extended period of time make sure she knows how many people express extreme suffering and regret and describe a missing sense of being whole.. sadly its very trendy to transition and it generates a ton of attention for a young person.. I hope the pendulum swings the other way before too much damage is done to young people. The world has truly gone to a dark place where we let kids make a decision to alter their sexuality before they have fully flowered and experienced what it is like to enjoy your natural gender. I fear we are sending a young generation of victims of the modern for profit medical industry out into the world.. Its simply fucked up that the choice is being given to minors and taken away from the parents.

How humiliating even if he wanted to go back to living life as the man he is how could he ... He's stuck now so to speak.. he can't get his penis back he can't reverse all the mental and physical harm that was done to him simply because he liked playing with "girl" toys and wear girls clothes...

    As a teen who grew up with this phenomenon, I can tell you how it goes. 1st step: be a weird kid who doesn’t fit in and has mental issues, trauma, ugly, etc, or have nerdy and unpopular interests such as anime, furry fandoms, folk punk and certain books. Second step: befriend other weird people, and build a community. You feel appreciated and affirmed with your weirdness and build an identity out of it. 3rd step: one friend falls into the trend of being trans because of its popularity right now (insta, tiktok, twitter). You see other weird kids being LGBT. 4th step: you dress odd to affirm an identity that is “main character” and bright to create your own character out of yourself that is fantasy to match your interests. You change your pronouns. You feel new and appreciated. A new identity away from the weirdo. 5th step: the rest of the group follows because they’re weird too and they have a strong knit community of victimhood and main character syndrome if they’re all trans. 6th step: their community grows and combined with others like a contaigen. They become the new cool popular kids and they’re appreciated while making false identities and they feel wanted. 7th step: attentions starts running out so you make more fuss and might even transition sexually.

Maybe five years ago I started noticing a huge spike in white, higher functioning teenage girls saying they were trans. Prior to that we’d get maybe one MtF teenage patient a year but now we were inundated. We were told to ONLY affirm. We weren’t allowed to explore WHY they felt this way about their bodies, or what we could do to make them feel more comfortable with themselves. ONLY affirm and go along with it.

    Transgenderism remains an incoherent and inconsistent worldview. Every time I ask a trans person or trans advocate how they "know" they're the opposite gender, they inevitably confuse the inclination/disinclination to adhere to gender roles and norms with gender itself. That, or they say something like "I just feel like a woman". But this is incoherent also, since none of us have a basis for comparison. We've all only been just the one gender, so we'd have no way of knowing the difference between "feeling like" a man vs. "feeling like" a woman. Indeed, that's if such a feeling even exists at all. And it's also an inconsistent worldview, as none of these people would be willing to call a white man black if he identified as such. Even though that's literally the only thing supposedly obligating me to call a man a woman.

    To ask the question, is the shatter the concept of gender. Within this allows the physical apperance to basically be fashion statement completely. Gender does not exist anymore and a lot of people do not accept it. They do not do such because they NEED a problem. Gender is a problem they need when really gender as they define it is simply actions and actions aren't really gendered, infact they're not. A man putting on heels and getting implants doesn't remove what they want to call themselves "a man". Like a tomboyish girl working on machines and working out doesn't mean she isn't "a woman". Which is ironic, the people that want to "remove" gender enable it more by pigeonholing actions and fashion as gender when they've say none of that is gender. Basically the preached themselves out of the job if everybody goes sure "gender doesn't exist just live how ever you wish" They can no long exploit these people's emotions. What is valid is birth sex due to physical illnesses typical between the binary. Everything else is fashion and livestyle. I figured this out years ago and people thought I was "crazy" or a "bigot" yet look at world now I'm vindcated. Since people are now making the questions and finding the answers I've made almost a decade ago.

I was a girl but I had the mischievous nature of a boy as a kid. Never once wished to be a boy, just wanted to have the same kind of fun.

I was a tomboy pretty much through high-school, where I skipped prom much to everyone else's chagrin.

    This is an incredibly ignorant take which fails to take into account the sheer amount of descrimination which trans people face and how the surge of acceptance of transgendered people in the world directly correlates with the amount of people who have come out as transgender. The reason why more and more people are coming out of the closet is because we're seeing less and less instances where doing so will get them stoned to death. Trans people still get stoned to death mind you, and they still get thrown into prison just for being trans, but we're seeing that this is happening less and less, and so more and more people are coming out as transgender. Interestingly we're learning that many indigenous cultures, long before colonialism and invasion began, also recognized trans people. In Australia some tribes even referred to trans peoples as two spirited. How about that?? How do you, a literal doctor, not understand that?? How does a literal doctor not see that sex is a spectrum?? That's terrifying.

I suffered bullying, psychological and physical abuse in order to "man up", and of course this was cause of MUCH confusion. The "boys will be boys" and "girls will be girls" discourse boxes people to terrible extremes. So much in our society would be fixed by just letting people be people and embrace the beauty in diversity. It took me a lifetime to become comfortable in my own body.

You're perfectly fine as men and I hope society becomes flexible enough to accept feminine men and masculine women so that the coexistence of that supposed 'duality' isn't something to be ashamed of. I'm a straight woman and have always been a bit more masculine for some reason. At the age of 3 I was asking my parents why I didn't have a penis, I was convinced I ought to have it. I would hate skirts, loved the idea of driving cars and motorcycles, wanted to engage in playful physical fights with other kids and that sort of stuff. But I also liked playing with baby dolls lol. Sometimes I wished I was a man because it seemed they had it easier, less worried about having to fit beauty bodily standards.Thankfully my parents weren't worried and allowed me to play with whatever I wanted and dress and act according to my likes. As an adult now, I'm happy with the sex I was born, balanced between with my feminine and masculine side, but fully aware of society's norms and stupid prejudices.

Some scientists think that blocking estrogen might interfere with that proper development and that even if it is restarted, a key developmental period may have been skipped over. It could affect every system in the body: blood vessels, skeletal, nerve cells, etc. What really floors me is that physicians could have treated these children without knowing ALL the potential effects.

    Oh ehm, wait, you are not transphobic yet you actively decide to stand by someone's viciously transphobic beliefs by blatantly believing everything that comes out of their mouth? That's almost the equivalent of: I can't be transphobic, I have friends who are transgender! Also, stop trying to assume that because trans people experience a horrible puberty is why we seek transition: that's not how gender identity works, not in transgirls and not in transboys, and it's not how gender clinics work. You also make the stupid mistake of suggesting that if you were to have grown up now, you would've fallen victim to hospitals/gender clinics in particular having lost all their ability to control their treatment by listening to their patients who, at the slightest hint of doubts about treatment either see treatment getting halted temporarily or permanently, or maybe not see start of it in the first place (for instance, if during or near the onset of puberty children bring forward that they are not sure, and puberty blockers are not administered, but instead the child is monitored for the next 3-6 months while puberty has it's way. If the child's mental health deteriorates due to the anxiety involved with the effects it notices about puberty and the child is actively stating to not be happy with the changes it's noticing, treatment is started. You suggest the intake at a gender clinic is a one-way ticket of which there is no way out of, and that all the people working in a gender clinic are moronic assholes just waiting to forcefully push children into their treatment program, and forcefully administer puberty blocking medication or hormones whether those children want to or not. If you would've had an intake at a gender clinic because, as you suggest, your puberty was horrible and transboys use transitioning as a "quick and easy fix to get out of that", the gender clinic would've interviewed you, your parents, you and your parents together, you and your parents probably would've had to fill out tons of questionnaires, and the talks you'd have with a psychologist would basically be like someone trying to dissect your brain while you are still alive to try and find out what the reason for you seeking treatment actually is. Because the psychologists there will typically border more on the side of "We do not believe you unless you provide us with enough proof that you are 10.000% sure that this is the right path for you" instead of "Here you go, here's the referral to the endocrinologist, we can make the appointment for surgery right now if you want" after the first talk (because, after all, Abigail Shrier is wrongfully shouting "that it's way to easy these days", while it's exactly the opposite. In your case the psychologist would probably diagnose you with something along the lines of: "Observed: patient with a non-persistent wish of changing gender-roles, changing sex, name or preferred pronouns, all signs of distress shown have been indicated to not be based on gender dysphoria. Mental distress observed probably caused by the onset of puberty. No comorbidity with other mental health problems has been observed, diagnosed or witnessed during interviews or cross-referencing the questionnaires against common mental health problems usually seen in teens aged [lower age limit - upper age limit] ". Results of questionnaires for signs of gender dysphoria: negative. Results of interviews conducted with patient and parent(s) and/or legal guardian: negative indication for gender dysphoria. Signs of gender incongruent behavior due to gender dysphoria: negative. Patient has actively stated not wanting to transition and change sex, falling in line with the examination of said patient in all earlier mentioned forms of triage. Patient is not eligible for further treatment at our ward but is advised to seek mental guidance and help outside of our facilities. Patient can request a direct referral if deemed necessary." When I turned 14, boy puberty started for me, I had been feeling "off" for quite some time already, and started to feel incredibly uncomfortable when boy puberty started: feeling ashamed of my body, scared of what it was doing that I seemingly had little to no control over. I felt like I had turned crazy, after all: what boy thinks he should be a girl? From the moment boy puberty had started to when I was 30 years old (which is when I started hormones), I felt like I tried to play a part in a big play that everyone around me had gotten the script of. Pretty soon after starting hormones, my body started changing (obviously) and for the first time in my life especially since boy puberty, I actually was at peace looking at my body, because it was finally looking a whole lot more what my mind had always pictured it to be.

    Disagreeing with trans is not transphobic. Sure, you don't believe what they believe, but you don't go around harassing them etc right? That ain't transphobic. Just because you disagree with some groups of people doesn't makes you 'phobic', especially if you have proper facts to back your opinion. I don't believe that trans man are man/male and vice versa.

    Same. I'm horrified by the number of children I see being pushed into this with no understanding of the consequences. And many of them obviously not trans either, just going through puberty, trying to fit in and fueled by social media. I've stopped associating with the movements, and think the growing number of people who want it to be just LGB without the T are perfectly reasonable, because the T activist movement has gone off the rails and started hunting youth. You can not convince me that all these children are transgender. And they can't convince me either since they can only parrot information about the pain and dysphoria vs describe how it feels. Back when I started, I never met an individual that had been truly thrilled by the realization they were trans. Relieved to have a name for it. Possibly excited to do something to reduce the pain and struggle, excited or maybe feel whole or fully yourself, but these kids are just elated to be transgender. It just seems fuckin nuts to me.

    I live in Ireland where the government promised to get ride of religious schools. My two daughters went to multidenominational primarily school. Without parents consent teachers were reading gender books to our children during lunch time. Children were not allowed to talk at the lunch break. The book that really hit my daughter was about a boy who woke up as a girl. The story continued next day. So Mum dressed him as a girl and he went to school. The story was continued next day: when he was happier to be a girl because THE GIRLS HAD BETTER AND BIGGER PLAYGROUND (!) Few days of teacher reading this book to the class and My daughter was terrified that she will wake up one day as a boy. The book was read to children four days from Monday to Thursday during lunch break when children were not allowed to move out of their sit or talk to friends. I have removed my children from MULTIDENOMINATIONAL school. They mess up with our children without our knowledge!

    As a gay man who grew up "throwing a ball like a girl," I am soooo glad I was not manipulated into thinking I must be "a girl inside." If we could just learn to love and accept each other AS SOULS, not as body parts or skin colors, we'd be much better off and much less susceptible to manipulation by others. In order for harmony, love, and decency to exist, there must be less "me, me, me" and more listening. But under no circumstances is a child who is not mature enough to drink alcohol miraculously mature enough to identify as a different gender. How on earth would a child know what it feels like to be some other gender inside? Is the child psychic? And what does that mean, anyway? Does every woman feel the same inside? Does every man feel the same inside? Of course, not.

    I used to feel like I was the wrong gender. Then I transitioned. It was the best decision of my life, becoming the woman God intended me to be. HRT and transitioning saved my life and helped me find happiness and get beyond the drugs. This is why we need strong education about transgender issues in schools, so transgender children like me don't have to suffer from a lack of understanding who we are. Plus strong education prevents people from learning about gender dysphoria from the internet, and can instead learn it from a trained professional. Before you say this confuses kids, learning about being transgender isn't going to make your kids transgender any more than learning about being cisgender DID NOT MAKE ME STRAIGHT AND A GUY. I was always born a transgender woman. I just wish more Americans could recognize this and stop hating and judging others and just live their own lives. If you don't want to transition, good for you, don't do it, but don't attack those who need to do it. That's not freedom, that's hatred.

More power to you. I think a lot of the problems would be alleviated, though, if we just taught all kids to reject narrow cultural definitions and to respect each child's uniqueness until the individual is old enough to make the decision for himself/herself without someone's opinion tipping the scale. If a biological boy wants to dress in a feminine manner, classmates should be expected to accept and even befriend that person. However, there is WAY too much room for manipulation of children going on when it comes to the chemical, hormonal and medical aspect. The decision was ultimately right for you, but it isn't for those who realized too late that they had made the wrong decision. That's not hatred, that's freedom (and kindness).

No where in the LGBTQ community do people insist that they can tell the gender of someone else, the common theme is each person needs to decide for themselves who they are and to be the person they are meant to be. How is that dangerous to teach to children? My brain wasn't functioning right until I got on estrogen, are you saying I deserved to suffer all those years from 10-25 because I didn't deserve the medical care because you feel you have a better understanding of how my brain and body functions?
