About fucking time the facade of youth gender medicine’s supposed infallibility is crumbling. For years, the trans rights movement has peddled the emotionally manipulative lie that denying children puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones is tantamount to signing their death warrants—a claim rooted in social blackmail rather than evidence. The Atlantic article exposes this narrative, epitomized by phrases like “Would you rather have a dead son than a live daughter?” as collapsing under scrutiny. During Supreme Court arguments in the Skrmetti case, ACLU lawyer Chase Strangio admitted there’s no evidence linking medical transition to reduced adolescent suicide rates, a concession that exposes the hollowness of the movement’s loudest rallying cry. Systematic reviews further debunk the myth, showing no increase in suicides when blockers were restricted in England. The left’s bubble, sustained by zombie facts and a refusal to engage with critics, has been punctured by undeniable truths—truths skeptics have long pointed out, only to be shouted down.

I told you so: the so-called evidence base for youth gender medicine is a house of cards built on citation laundering and ideological zeal. American clinics, deviating from the cautious Dutch protocol, often prescribe blockers on first visits, bypassing thorough assessments. WPATH, the supposed gold standard, has been caught suppressing inconvenient research, with internal doubts about weak evidence buried to protect political goals. Rachel Levine’s push to remove age minimums for surgeries was a calculated move to dodge conservative attacks, not a science-driven decision. Meanwhile, practitioners like Johanna Olson-Kennedy, who casually dismissed adolescent regret with “you can go and get [breasts],” reveal a cavalier attitude toward irreversible procedures. The left’s sanctimonious insistence on “settled science” is nothing but a confabulation, propped up by medical associations’ politically influenced consensus rather than rigorous data.

The legal system, for all its flaws, has finally dragged these lies into the light—about fucking time. Court cases like Skrmetti and Alabama’s litigation exposed WPATH’s internal admissions of shaky evidence and their efforts to muzzle researchers whose findings didn’t align with the narrative. The Cass report, dismissed by American advocates as “subjective,” challenged WPATH’s authority with systematic reviews recommending caution. Yet, the left clings to its bubble, accusing outlets like The New York Times of “manufacturing” debate. Skeptics, long vilified as bigots, have been vindicated: the evidence is inconclusive, the risks are real, and the emotional blackmail is unconscionable. Supporting trans rights doesn’t require endorsing experimental treatments for kids, and it’s high time liberals faced this reality instead of doubling down on discredited dogma.
