What I don’t get is how and why gays and lesbians fail to connect the dots of what gender affirmation is in real life: a significant form of conversion therapy. And this is what Eva – self described as a lesbian millennial – is really saying. When same sex attraction begins to surface in young people and causes emotional discomfort and body incongruence, the (imposed) medical response is not to convert the feelings (which we know from hard experience causes tremendous suffering if imposed) but to convert the body! This IS conversion therapy by another name – and an inalterable physical and chemical therapy that causes well known physiological harm AND if successful medicalizes youth for life. The most vulnerable kids to being victimized by transgender ideology (as longer term studies clearly demonstrate) are gay and lesbian youth.
This is why the majority of youth who undergo transitioning drugs later self identify as same sex attracted. Well, duh.
The most tragic element is that if these kids were simply left alone, between 80-95% would overcome the diagnosed ‘gender dysphoria’ simply by going through – rather than trying to go around – puberty. Who knew (except just about anyone who knows anything about medicine and psychology)? These facts are not hidden. They are simply discarded by those directed to do so. And that includes the medical and counseling professional oversite and licensing bodies. This is what institutional capture MEANS. This Do No Harm success rate far exceeds the significantly lower rates who have gone through some portion of ‘transitioning’ (because full transitioning is never reached… it’s a biological impossibility).
Eva is a treasure.

Anyone who believes they are being ‘kind’ supporting gender ideology are simply wrong. Factually wrong. Morally wrong. Ethically wrong. And this support is translated into real harm in real life to real people. Most importantly, deep harm to children. Calling it ‘kind’ doesn’t make it so. This belief is tragically stupid and incredibly harmful. That is the result – the inevitable result – of believing what isn’t true and then forgetting to allow reality to arbitrate one’s beliefs about it. Add a strong sense of being virtuous by denying reality is just SO irresponsible. Some detransitioners call this reality denialism and support for it ‘evil’ and with cause. Justified cause.
