It is good to see. These doctors and parents have unleashed a storm but will reap the whirlwind of being held to account as children grow up and realise they are forever changed and sterile. It is all so sad. There has been enough damage done. The detransitioners like Chloe Cole and Mel show that this is a failed experiment that had no ethical boundaries.

Indeed sterility but then there’s the really bad stuff, to include:

elevated suicide rates, toxic mental health comorbidities, drug abuse and early death.

I reference a very lengthy document (readily accessible on the internet) titled:

‘Overview of President Trump’s Executive Actions Impacting LGBTQ+ Health. Published Sept 25, 2025’

I cite a fragment of that document that sets the tone:

“Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation:

Purpose: Order directs agencies and programs to work toward significantly limiting access to gender affirming care for young people (defined as those under age 19) nationwide”.

. . . .Say/think what you will of President Trump, yet how we would rejoice if we were to find a senior politician in Australia with a hint of such insight and conviction!

MORE MADNESS FROM TRUMP:

Overview of some of Trump’s Executive Actions Impacting LGBTQ+ Health

…To define sex as an immutable binary biological classification and remove recognition of the concept of gender identity, including in sex protections and in agency operations.

..The order states that “It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female” and directs the Executive Branch to “enforce all sex-protective laws to promote this reality”. Elements of the order that may affect LGBTQ people’s health are as follows:

…Defines sex as “an individual’s immutable biological classification as either male or female.” States that “’sex’ is not a synonym for and does not include the concept of ‘gender identity’” and that gender identity “does not provide a meaningful basis for identification and cannot be recognized as a replacement for sex.”

…Directs each agency and all Federal employees, “when administering or enforcing sex-based distinctions,” to “use the term ‘sex’ and not ‘gender’ in all applicable Federal policies and documents.”
