The fact that this is even a point of discussion at the government level shows how screwed society is.
Well said
His speech and comparison is really awesome...
100%
the exact same idea that crossed my mind when finished watching the vid.
If only republicans didn't throw out ridiculous comparisons then we would have reasonable conversations.
I've asked a similar question.
My 5 year old granddaughter spent 2 weeks identifying as a "Sister of Battle". Should we have capitulated and put the child on the front lines of war with a rifle and some body armor ?
No. Because she is 5. Plus after some time pretending to be a woman of war, she decided to be a hedgehog for a week.
Based granddaughter
I'll say that you're granddaughter has good taste.
For The Emperor!
You're denying your grand daughter's service to the Emperor? You're tiptoeing on the line of heresy.
Not an easy comment, more of a horror story but based on legit concerns worded... in a way that the comment stays...)This is actually my concerns with ab.. ort eon....
More than half a decade ago I read some ideas that promoted after the birth situations. Much much later than the time of.
The real concern was the writting seemed to hint at the question “ When is a human a human?” And the idea being “when they can tell you”
So a young child, i dicating their a puppy dog, in light of that horrible idea at its greatest extent, could be uthenized, because they dont have human value.
Yeah its concerning!
Heather the hedgehog will be Matt Walsh’s next best selling book!!
He's spot on, doing this to children is absolutely insane and deplorable. It's exactly as he says, you're performing irreversible physiological changes on a child on practically a whim.
And when the child grows up? Can the change be done then?
@@goranmilic442 Personally, if an adult wants to make a physical change to themself, I don't have much issue with it. It shouldn't be paid for with taxpayer dollars though. Really not much different from something like plastic surgery, but it's a voluntary operation, so it should come out of their pocket.
@@Lithane97 I see.
Okay, then we need to institutionalize all religions because they damage children. They don't deserve tax exempt status. That is subsidizing them.
@@Lithane97 explain your understanding of what is being done to kids.
What shocks me is 30% of Americans are in favour of this!!!
I hope that once this atrocity stops, that these people are pursued for criminal charges.
The Women supporting these delusional practices are maniacal.
Absolutely agree, this is insanity, poor research, corrupt Dr's and pharma=$$$. Also, hormones for women have been proven to cause cancers, imagine what these Frankenstein Dr's cause damage thru the surgeries. Save our Children!!!
AMEN.
Some of the parents will be "persued" by their children VERY aggressively, and it ain't gonna be cheap nor pretty for them. But as good parents who want only the best for their kids they'll have to go along with whatever the kids choose to do TO their parents. "Let's see now, you don't really NEED this part, nor this one...There; now you're perfect."
The insurance company also has a hand in it since they are willing to approve this without questions while having other surgery would require extensive procedure to go through.
Children are impressionable and should be left alone to enjoy their childhood .
that's why they are targeting kids.... to manipulate, if they fail this lunatics campaign next they will come the threats.
i don’t think you understand how much of a bitch gender dysphoria is, you can’t ignore it and cbt or other talk therapies either don’t do anything to help alleviate the pain or they actively hurt patients
You say that to. LGBTQ. Person to leave kids alone they will march and forced schools to teach your kids about stuff you don’t want them to know about
@@EazyTheReconthat’s not happening. You are making shit up.
When i was 6 years old, the school system forced me to take psychotropic meds or i could not get an education. The very definition of indoctrinated and brainwashed fits my childhood seamlessly. Unless adults do more to speak out or stand up for the kids it'll just continue to happen. Lot of dudes just claim that "oh i'd do anything for the kids" meanwhile as a 6 year old i was restrained by other adults and forced into a box, also the daily forced medication consumption. People claim there all this negativity going on, all this blah blah blah but i was abused by the public school system my entire childhood.
It's even WORSE than that, Dan! Imagine if your daughter told that to her school councillor who agreed she should have her healthy eye removed. Then the councillor snuck your underage daughter across state lines to California WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE in order to have the surgery...??
This craziness NEEDS to stop and those responsible for allowing and performing the mutilations on any child should be held accountable including those who voted to legalize it.
And we thought genital mutilation and circumcision were bad!
I agree that the craziness needs to stop, but I completely disagree with you about what the craziness is. To me, it's crazy to deny someone healthcare simply because you don't understand or agree with it. It's none of your business. Gender affirming care has been proven, time and again, to be the best tool to prevent suicide in the trans community. If you're against gender affirming care, you are literally telling people that your ignorant opinions are more important to you than their life is. That's what's crazy.
@@_MADAMIMADAM_ Sorry, but its a mental disorder. And yes, they do need help.
@_MADAMIMADAM_ Where is your proof? You are either a lier or a

The fact that a parent would take their 11 yearolds idea that he wanted to be a she is nuts. What if your 11 yearold said he wanted to be an alcoholic because he would rather hang out at the bar and play pool or pinball rather go to school, because it looks like the bar is more fun. Any parent that buys into ANY of this should not have custody of children.
🎯💯
We have states making laws that they will remove the child if parent tries to stop a child from harming their bodies with chemicals or surgeries.
Washington state just made a law, California is right behind.
Wow, isn't it crazy how a child wanting to present differently to others... is not at all in any way comparable to economic life decisions?
Like, what if your child decided to assassinate the president? Isn't that the same thing as them saying they like wearing purple shirts?
For preadolescents transition is entirely social, and for adolescents the first line of medical care is 100% temporary puberty delaying treatment that has no long term effects. Hormone therapy isn't an option until their mid teens, by which point the chances that they will "desist" are close to zero. Reconstructive genital surgery is not an option until their late teens/early 20's at the youngest. And transition-related medical care is recognized as medically necessary, frequently life saving medical care by every major medical authority.
Withholding medical care from an adolescent who needs it is not a goddamn neutral option. Transition is absolutely necessary to keep many trans kids alive. Without transition a hell of a lot of them commit suicide. When able to transition rates of suicide attempts drop to the national average.
Ignorance isnt a life sentence
California is already there
We have to stop this madness. Doctors oath first to do no harm.
the whole country needs to follow florida and other states that will fire doctors if they decide to do this type of surgery on a child. the doctors will loose their medical license also.
Unfortunately the hospital that employs the doctor, in order to receive federal grants, enforce the doctor to do harm. Time for doctors to stand up for the truth.
The progressive left try to skirt around "do no harm" by arguing not aiding a transition will cause the person to kill themselves so, in order to "do no harm' they must affirm the transition.
Isn't it crazy how thousands of doctors who follow and uphold this oath on every other matter turn a blind eye on this one matter? It definitely isn't that they believe and show evidence that no harm is being done. How far has this country fallen smh
@@kerry3496 Why start NOW? The vast majority of Doctors allowed the Covid Lies to Persist! Although to be fair, the ones that DID Speak to Truth were SEVERELY ostracized and some lost their License!
BTW now California has a Law.. That is you Advised a Patient about something Covid related that was not the " Correct " position,,
You WILL be Removed as a Doctor. Total fascist State!
Is so refreshing to hear people in power actually being sensible and communicating with decency about this. We got sickos running around
Once upon a time, it seems like last week, we all agreed it was a monstrous evil for a society to sterilize its neuroatypical.
And we never even conceived of a society that would do it to their children.
Doctors and nurses involved in this butchery to children should be arrested, jailed and struck off. They are disgusting people.

Should someone's 12-year-old daughter be signed up for gastric bypass surgery if she weighs 60 pounds, but believes with every fiber of her being that she's obese? 🤔
Exactly, I see there's a bunch of silence from the lost ones when it comes to comments like this, because they know full well their thought process makes no sense at all.
How dare you?! How dare you use rhetoric and logic or logical analogy in Congress?
The butchers who prescribe chemical castration to minors should be jailed for the rest of their remaining lifespan. These “transition” surgeries should be put in the same category as lobotomies, organ theft, and other forms of medical malpractice.
so, they are butchers if they do , they are transfobic and prosecuted if they dont , is not their fault , the only problem here is the absolute ignorance around the world about this gender madness and the woke shit
10 years from now, the courts will be flooded with lawsuits filed by adults who have come to the realization that they were seduced into irreparably damaging their bodies and their lives while they were still innocent children.
Maybe Bill Gates brain washed all these confused people as part of his reducing population?

Those same butchers should be put on chemical castration too so they can live in suffering ❤
If everyone believes this treatment of you children is O.k. Then Congress needs to pass a law to give these children protection 20 yrs out from surgery ( puberty blockers) the right to sue and prosecute the Parents and Doctors responsible for making permanent and damaging decision that are not reversable. When they can't profit from this maybe they will think twice.
"We have to stop this madness, it's gone too far"
Wiser words have never been spoken.
i love how the black haired woman has this smug smile when the Doctor talks about the societal problems she encountered while writing her book,
but gets absolutely smashed to pieces when getting questioned herself
Does anyone have a counterargument? Besides 'It's not equivalent!', because it mostly certain is. Anyone who claims that their toddler is non-binary or trans should lose custody of that child.
I couldn't agree more. if you have a Child that is a sexual Anything .... the parent should go to jail.
Gender identity is real
Having one eyeball is not an gender
One Eyeball doesn't = gender
That guy wasn't sound in his arguments
Crenshaw: Should Doctor Take Out My Daughter's Eye If She Identifies 'As Somebody With One Eyeball'? They are crazy enough - don't give them anymore deranged ideas!
I identify as a person who lives in a sane world! Where are my rights?!?
Heard this man before, he's intelligent and based. We need more like him to stand up.
Crenshaw isn't based. He's a WEF stooge. But he's correct on this issue.
There's a reason he's called "Eyepatch McCain."
@@krow7402 Let's eliminate taxpayer funding for the worst things. War, business, religion (tax exempt is tax money ).
eye patch McCain.....used as an insult? By losers like Trump and Tucker, who think they are the gate keepers of the republican party. McCain was a real American leader who served his country in ways beyond cushy political positions. Same goes for Crenshaw. He didn't lose that eye on the golf course did he. This guy has more common sense and integrity in his trigger finger than 80 percent of the republican presidential nominees combined.
@kevinmunger1842 Tax payer funding for the standing military isn't a bad thing. What's bad is the ease in which that military is used.
You have to go through congress to declare war, right, but if you never declare war and just send the troops it's a "policing action." You can do that without congress.
Nah he’s swamp creep like the rest
It will probably stop when hospitals and Doctors lose so much in lost lawsuits that nobody will ever want to risk offering these procedures.
"Transabled" is already something that is happening, and they aren't being sectioned, they are being supported.
A woman blinded herself, others use wheelchairs with no disability. We used to treat these people as they should be, as crazy.
I honestly think the US should have a more collectivized culture, clearly we've taken individualism to a dangerous extreme, if that level of behavior is accepted in the name of inclusivity.
How do you treat crazy people? Do you force them to conform to what you believe is normal, or do you compromise with them?
@@plaguepandemic5651ehhhhhhh, I think letting people be themselves as long as they aren't hurting others is pretty integral to freedom, the only reason this stuff needs to stop is because it is hurting others and contorting objective reality
Far cheaper to just let them destroy themselves. We got no responsibility to act as caretakers to adults.
@@dave-kt7sj yeah acting paralyzed because that’s how you “identify” is not normal there are people in this world who would give anything to be able to walk to the store or see there children with their own eyes those who “identify” as paralyzed or blind are an insult to those groups of people and should not be compromised with
I like this guy. Smart, to the point, doesn't have time for B.S. and calls it how he see's it.

They all should go to prison for child abuse. Others would go to jail if they told this to children yet allow publish and give to children.
One of my medical school interview questions was "should a person who believes they should have one arm be allowed to undergo surgery to remove their arm?"
Replace 'person' with 'child' and that's a straight no.
Being confronted with the ethics after med school over 50 years ago, and although I am my self, and far from in favor, it's not a question for Politicians. Start realizing the USA is 50 years behind on almost everything compared to the Netherland. I posted this in a comment, which you can easily find here,
Interesting. I have a question for you. My wife actually believes she should undergo surgery the remove one of her knees. Cause : she has a terrible knee problem. Multiple surgeries. A bit helpful, but pain is stronger and stronger as the time goes. She asked the surgeon to remove her knee and replace it by an artificial limb/joint, whatever is useful. Surgeon answer is : nope. Because her knee is a "living member" of her body and you don't remove something "living" from your body as far as you can use external tools and solutions to compensate the disability of the member, he says. He's a serious guy, we like him, strong reputation etc. We ask advices to ours doctor friends and doctor family, they all say the same. Basic of ethic is, "do not harm".
Here, does the logic of "Replace 'person' with 'child' and that's a straight no." still work ?
You will tell me there is so much to consider : risk/benefit ratio, age, etc. I agree. Let's put that apart.
I wanna focus your answer on how the patient beliefs have to be taken for serious and legit. And how the doctor beliefs and ethics could harm the patient ?
You can also put apart any woke debate like "is transgendering kids ok?". Bet we both agree that it is not ok.
If curious : surgeon is now ok for artificial limb. Letting her know pros/cons, risk/benefit, success rate ratios to take her decision. He is ok because everything was tried to not go for such an important surgery for 5 years, and that is now the last solution. So for 5 years, she had suffered psychological and physical pain and disability, to come to a solution she was asking from the beginning. Not even speaking about me, the one who assisted and still assist her in her disability. Some hard quotes will stay in my mind forever "Look this guy with no arms, no legs, he cross the English Channel swimming on his own, why don't you try swimming a bit? "You said it, the guy had no arm no leg, so no pain. I can't do it because I still have my knee, pain is the problem".
@@cirrus1964 The US is certainly at the forefront of crazy leftist/communist agendas.
@@MrSirPicsouyou don't remove working parts of the body because of delusions. Your question pertains to pain in the knee.
A knew replacement is a last resort, not a first. But if there was actual evidence of injury to the point of doing a knee replacement, then it would be done.
People with body dismorphia who remove working appendages are mentally ill.

It’s because the parents are doing what their children want instead of the children being PROTECTED by their parents.
When my boys were little, we were in a grocery store and they wanted candy (at 9:00 am).
I said, “No”
An elderly man turned to me and said, “Do you know I rarely hear mothers say ‘no’ to their children! It’s refreshing to know some mothers still do.”
When you are raising children, compliments are rare, but l knew “No” was in their best interest that day.
A lollipop at 9am? The kid would have been ok either way but probably happier if they got the lollipop. You’re not protecting your child from anything, you just didn’t want them to have sugar at 9am. 🤦♀️
It's habbit forming, agreeing to giving a kid sugar in the morning isn't great, will it kill them now, no, will it potentially form bad habbits, maybe. Good parenting as far as I can see.
@@Akko81 You can be a good parent and protect your kids when they actually NEED to be protected, one lollipop for THAT MORNING would have done nothing other than make the kid happy, it’s not like your going to let them eat pounds of sugar EVERY morning and every day…..I was just saying for that one morning you saying no to your kid just because you didn’t want them to have sugar is far from PROTECTING them. 👍
@Show Me Something Not saying you're wrong, one lollipop isn't the end of the world, but saying yes to kids to make them happy isn't alway the best way. Kids will push and push parents, whereby saying yes shuts them up, or, as you said, makes them happy. The easy ways aren't always the best. To my original point, setting a president to kids on bad habits makes them think it's ok, one lollipop one morning turns into every morning, you know what I mean...? Not trying to argue with you or say you're wrong, just looking from different perspectives is all. 👍
@@Akko81 The original comment mentioned that we need to PROTECT our children yet they used a bad example. They mentioned saying no to their child having sugar just because it was the morning and that sometimes you have to say no because it’s in their “best interest”….for protection? Against..sugar? Lol I just don’t see why they choose to make them unhappy, it should make the parents happy that the kid even asked, already proving that they are good parents and their kid wasn’t rude for asking first. Kids need to hear more yes when they live in a world FULL of no’s. It’s not a bad habit to like sugar or have sugar in the morning, obviously if you over eat it, but like I already stated it’s not like you are going to say yes EVERY time, but children need more yes in their life and it doesn’t have to be a negative especially if it’s coming from the children themselves, hence why I thought the two stories had little to no correlation.
What a great analogy. Well done, Dan.
It was an eyesore
As an autistic person, I often feel like an alien from another planet. But if I actually started believing that I was, I would hope that someone would get me checked into a good mental health facility. And I pray that no one claiming to be a doctor would recommend species reaffirming surgery.
It's actually not. Like at all. 😂

so, just to be clear form what YOU said: trans kids are a real thing,they are an legitimate issue.
during the fight for equality, the trans issue has gotten huge publicity and now for SOME trans advocates, it's a profit thing.
you are implicitly conceding that trans kids are real and we need to deal w them as trans, but that we need to be on the watch for folks trying to make a profit off of the issue.
ok, i'm fine w that argument.
...gosh, if only there were some way to take the profit margin out of the whole thing so we can deal with the trans kids who need actual help.
like, idk, socializing medicine.
hey europe, what's your trans kid situation like there?
we can use them as a baseline to see how much profiteering has influenced the trans movement in the US.
Should the child grow to be an adult and change their mind, they should be able to sue the state, Dr, psychologist and everyone else involved in their gender reassignment.
If you’re going to take control of the child from their parent to do the gender change, then you should also be taking the legal ramifications and consequences if your patient changes their mind when they become an adult who are old enough to actually analyze the outcome.
Lawsuits are already started in California by at least 2 detranstioners against Kaiser hospitals. Both women are left with permanent oozing wounds and pain.
Doubt they'll live that long.
Yep, ten or fifteen years from now it'll be a complete legal disaster.
You literally can't recieve any gender affirming care without parental consent until the age of 18, and prior to then the treatments you do recieve are entirely reversable - stop taking the meds and their effects cease to occur. Crazy how mislead you've been to think anything is happening without a parents consent.

I don't know who Mr Crenshaw is (I'm from the UK) but he speaks clearly and articulately, and I loved his thought experiment, which, as far as I can see, is accurate in terms of illustrating the point. Unfortunately, politics has permeated many spheres where politics should not be allowed to be. Much of science is now riddled with political agendas - this is not a good thing. The only thing we should be acting upon is clear evidence based on rigorous research and thorough analysis. When those with different opinions are being shut down, in an academic setting, then you know we are on a very slippery road indeed.
Common complications following plastic surgery include infection, necrosis, wound separation, fluid collections or abscesses, and blood clots. Would messing with a child’s genitalia be a picnic? This is quite a sick social experiment.
Plastic surgery is also used to reconstruct faces and the such after horrific injuries such as burns. With the amount of people who get those kinds of injuries every year, theres no need to go after children as a social experiment as burn victims already exist for that. That's clearly not the cause here.
"My kid thinks it would be fun to zoom around in an electric wheelchair so, doctor, I'd like you to cut my kid's spinal cord. Because I'm a good person." Literally how some people think.
I have a friend who is trans and he doesn't have anything different about him other than now being more comfortable in his body. I'd say the analogy falls short if you are comparing this to cutting out a spinal cord or limbs or eyes, since in my opinion, gender isn't something that changes your capabilities as a human, while cutting away an eye or a limb would.
@@alexanderficken9354 so would an adolescent girl having her breasts cut out or a fake penis made of her arm skin, or a boy having his penis removed and turned into a fake vagina. That would change their capabilities as a human.
Except the pushing of hormones and surgeries literally castrates and/or mutilates their genitalia.

At about the 4:24 mark, the super, pro-gender medical transition/mutilation "doctor" next to the lady, rolls her eyes and smirks when she refers to people who have written articles, etc. I would never want one of these so-called doctors to actually do anything on anyone's body (like the younger female who basically is condescending towards the older lady who presents facts about scientists being shut down for dissenting against this horrific medical trend).
Rarely do I side with a GOP but this time make kids wait until they are of age!
Still 3 million LESS people working now than in 2019. Back when Inflation was below 2%.
kids are made to wait until they are of age.
they are scaring you w lies.
btw, you know who isn't made to wait? male babies.
they are forced to undergo genital mutilation, and none of these transphobes makes a peep about circumcision.
@@dennisg4053 " 3 million LESS people working"
but unemployment is lower.
those folks not working? decided to start their own businesses instead.
thanks Biden!
@@vforwombat9915Unemployment is lower because of more people coming back to work after being forced out by lockdowns.
@@vforwombat9915 unemployment rate is the people getting unemployment checks, when those run out they are dropped off whether working or not. the labor force participation rate is the number of actual employed
Well said
As mad as this sounds there was a woman recently who blinded herself as she identified as blind. What a crazy world we are living in at the moment.
A crazy world wherein we tell people with obvious mental health issues that they're perfectly fine and normal and that it's the rest of the world that is wrong.
I hope she recovers.
@@MrScott1994unfortunately not. She’s blinded herself. Her mind might recover and then she will wish she hadn’t, that’s all that can change. Currently she doesn’t regret that she’s blind, although she did say she regretted how she did it. I imagine it hurt terribly.
@@bella-bee yeah it's called sarcasm.. there's too much crazy around for me to find sympathy for any of them. Hopefully she remembers to listen left and right before crossing the road, to avoid identifying as roadkill
Parents that "transition" their children should be in prison.
Parents who hit their kids should be in prison but they aren't. You learn to accept the world as it is or you dig yourself an early grave getting worked up about things that don't concern you day in and day out.
The fact that we're at a point where its' an argument over whether or not you should indulge children in their fantasies is just bizarre
How did we lose out country to a bunch a crazies?
This guy is a hero, it's truly madness and needs to stop for sure.
This is on-point. He's playing the middle of the road to try to get support, but he's 100% correct even with the watered-down version of what he's saying.
@@miscellaneousviewing7916 I mean, he's speaking for the rest of the world that has an IQ over 80, sadly.
I didn't know Big Boss was a Senator.
We should jail the people who want this. Mark them as sexual predators
A 17 year old may strongly feel that they do not want to have children, and ask a doctor to sterilize them. An ethical doctor would not consider doing that.
No, because there are revesible alternatives that achieve the same effect. What if your 17 year old had made multiple attempts to cut off a foot and a few suicide attempts when that failed. Five years of hell and all the mental heath treatments available? Would you deny her surgery as without it she's likely to attempt suicide again?
@@ColinWattersou can’t reverse sterilization it isn’t the same as a vasectomy
@@imverygerbyYou can start and stop taking birth control.
@@imverygerby You missunderstand. An ethical doctor wouldn't offer sterilisation because contraception is available and reversible.
@@ColinWatters true
My go-to analogy is giving liposuction to an anorexic person, because "whatever they believe about themselves must be true"
You have no idea how anorexia or gender dysphoria actually work, which is why people like you should not be dictating other peoples healthcare.
Dysmorphia =/= dysphoria
@@LordOdio whats the relevant difference? Someone gave it a different word?
If your brain and your body don't match, your brain is the problem.
Exactly.
What a wonderful doctor! A female doctor standing up to the mob
What adolescent is comfortable in their body?!?!
Anyone honest with themselves knows this is wrong.
I agree 100% but someone else in the comments made a great point that routine circumcision ("Male genital mutilation" you could call it) is also wrong and many of these arguments about bodily integrity of children can be applied to that.
They either know it's wrong and don't care or are legit to brain melted to care or learn
The Rino makes a good point.
Relatable analogy, thanks.
Here , here , well spoken and completely correct .
I will never forgive our supposed "caretakers" for allowing this horror show to exist and go on for so long...
this is insane and someone should be prosecuted for this madness
Imagine treating every disorder and highly encouraging one.
Amen,you nailed it 😅
It's good to hear common sense.
My husbands daughter claimed to be snufalupagus from Sesame Street and refused to answer you unless you call her by that name! So does she still wish this as a adult.... NO, no she let go of her childhood obsession and moved on. Lord help us when society wants to confirm our children's childhood make believe thoughts. Enough already. Save our children and allow them a fantasy without it being a life long commitment!
Jail for all of them. This is so frustrating
Wasn't there a girl who made herself blind, because she always felt like she was blind. She even appeared on a talkshow and one woman couldb't fathom what was happening.
Yes there was. I think she was in Dr. Phil
She did not always feel like she was blind, because she didn't know what it was like to be blind. You can't just treat the testimony of a very mentally ill person as truth like that. You can't take someone at their word when they're claiming their natural, healthy body is wrong and inconsistent with the way they are meant to be.
I understand what you meant, but this is an important distinction to make. If you accept the premise of her argument 'she has always felt like she was blind', the argument that perhaps doctors should blind her becomes a lot more reasonable. But the premise of her argument is not logically correct.
Gender reassignment surgery is absolute insanity.
The parents have no comeback against this madness.
"We have to stop this madness" 💯👏
If humanity could have an epitaph lol
The fact that he has one eye covered it makes his argument even more scary. Love that point. It is that ridiculous now!!
He is always like that.
Press pause? More like outlaw it and imprison anyone for a long time who practise it
Grossman: "Studies we would like..." There you go.
It's definitely a reasonable comparison. "Body integrity identity disorder", in which people feel a desire to become amputees, is usually caused by knowing amputees as a kid. Knowing someone who is missing an eye might cause someone to wish they were too, and exposure to "trans" people increases trans identification.
That is basically how advertising works and why transism is advertised so much. They want more eedeeots around. Wanting to have tons of money, religions or fame, is same sheet, anyway.
@@constantinosschinas4503 Maybe - but there are also a lot of trans people who have never been exposed to other trans people before they became trans themselves.
@@christianealshut1123 In any case, being trans is close to the lowest a person can get. Not accepting who you are, and live in a constant, degrading fantasy. And they try to sell the vice versa. Take a bald person who wears a wig. Then extend it to self mutilation combined with world wide fascism. That simple. They will use trans people to raise the fasiscm and then, when trans are useless for them, they will make them... illegal.
Discriminatory against those who identify as having three eyes.
🏆
Imagine what we’ll be arguing about five years from now.
The freak show in about 10 years will be a marvel to behold.
I remember a documentary on tv, many years ago, of a man who felt he shouldn’t have 2 legs. A bit like the reverse of phantom pain after losing a leg when the mind is certain the leg is still there. He was certain his actual leg wasn’t there.
No orthopaedic surgeon would help him, and he ended up with a psychiatrist. For a long time. It was about the incongruity between his mental image and his physical body and the effect that had on him. He couldn’t get on with life normally.
Yes he had his amputation above the knee, eventually, and help to rehabilitate, because he had a mental condition that therapy couldn’t satisfy. But it was a weird one off and no one was happy about destroying a healthy body part. Weird enough to make a tv programme about.
Compare that strange 1 in multi millions tale to now, when you only have to imagine …..
Actually, this has been researched. It was found that amputation led to the greatest improvement in mental health with those suffering from body integrity identity disorder. There isn't a conclusive cause, but evidence so far points to it being neurological/genetic similar to gender dysphoria.
So basically he had a mental illness that caused him to have delusions.
Finally someone with balls to say thing
Did you just assume his gender???
@@pa28cfi No but oh god you just did ? Are you saying women cant have penises ? (it's really what they are saying)
@@zomkino Oh, they can have them. But only in a rhythmic manner and only for up to four hours at a time. After that we're supposed to call a doctor.
Brain rot
I am a board certified physician , one of my 18 yo psych patient told me that she used to identify herself as a male , she underwent bilateral mastectomy and taken puberty blockers , and she is regretting on it now, extremely depressed and attempted suicides multiple times. Do we really need more of these , please stop experimenting with kids 🙏🏼
We have to stop this madness. That's the quote.
Bro there are people out there CRAZY enough to criple or blind themselves becuse they FEEL they should be that way.
God help our society.
If you're going to allow children to undergo forced hormone changes and surgery before they finish puberty, you might as well throw all child protection out the window, reduce the legal drinking and smoking age, and age of consent, to five. Yes, that's ridiculous. So is allowing non-lifesaving hormonal manipulation and surgery at that age.
Good for you, this is crazy😮.
Absolutely Correct Dan Crenshaw!!
Yes, as Keith said: The fact that this is even a point of discussion at the government level shows how screwed society is.
Our children need to be protected from these sick idiots
The fact that only 70% of Americans are against this is concerning.
