Shapiro Host: Millions Of Kids Are On Puberty Blockers

Shapiro Host: Millions Of Kids Are On Puberty Blockers

Both these guys are anti-trans.   Walsh makes up a ridiculously large number to claim children are being rushed into puberty blockers.  When told the true number is less than 1,000 a year Rogan laughs about it because he loved the idea scaring people on the idea that millions of kids were transitioning.   Tomorrow I will read stories all over right wing media how millions of kids are being forced to use puberty blockers as they are forced to transition.   This is the sort of dirty tricks and made up false information that the right loves to use against trans people and the rest of the LGBTQ+.    Facts don’t matter to these people.  Also not mentioned here but Walsh has a recorded show where he said girls at the age of 12 should be married and have sex and by 14 should be having babies because they reach their peak sexuality by 16.    Yet it is the gays and teachers he calls groomers.   Hugs

 

And of course, Joe Rogan thinks the lie is funny:

Daily Wire host Matt Walsh claimed “millions” of kids have now been put on hormone blockers before getting fact checked by Joe Rogan’s producer. “How many people have had this done?” Rogan asked. “Depends on what — I don’t think we have exact numbers, but it’s — if we’re talking about the drugs, it’s, I mean, millions,” Walsh replied in reference to hormone medication given to those who are transitioning.

The projection screen in front of Rogan and Walsh lit up and producer Jamie Vernon interjected with a fact check from a Reuters article. “That’s a very small number if that’s right,” Vernon said referencing the article, published October 6, 2022, which said only 4,780 children had been placed on puberty blockers within the last five years. “Less than a thousand people a year,” Vernon reiterated. “A million sounds great,” Rogan laughed.

Walsh, who has called for charging adults who bring kids to drag show as pedophiles, recently appeared on JMG when he declared that Disney’s black mermaid is “unscientific.”

The previous month he appeared here when he blamed the Buffalo mass shooting on pandemic lockdowns.

Earlier this year, we heard from him when he declared that lesbians will cease to exist over the next 30 years.

Before that, he appeared here when he called for banning adoption by LGBT people. And before that, he appeared here when he called for dissolving the United States.

Walsh also claims that shooting people “is not against the law.” Walsh has declared that “everybody would be happier” if arranged marriages were mandatory.

Transgender woman in Honduras shot dead after seeking asylum in U.S.

https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/11/transgender-woman-honduras-shot-dead-seeking-asylum-u-s/

The CBP has gotten over run with trump supporting maga racist bigots and their social media shows this.   They actively disobey the current president and the director of National Security, refusing to follow current policies and even challenging them in court.   Plus ICE which is a rather new department created after 9/11 has started acting rouge and again has an attitude they don’t have to follow the orders of the current administration preferring the zero brown people in the US policies of the republicans and maga trump.  

People need to realize four things.   This is a huge country with a declining population in many rural areas.   There are small towns dying all across the middle / west of the country.   Those places that have welcomed immigrants have seen a resurgence of growth in their town and area.   We need immigrants in this country and people willing to work that hard as to walk all the way to the southern border are people willing to work hard.  We need them. 

Second thing I want you to realize is the polices being enforced are completely based on race and racist.   The brown people are being turned back without even hearings, they are unwanted brown people who will in the future help change the demographics of the country hastening when the white majority becomes a minority.   That terrifies some white people, they are fighting to maintain their assumed rule over everyone else, their assumed automatic authority.   While the brown people at the southern border are being pushed back, and those in the country rounded up to be deported, there is a energetic push to bring in “white” immigrants to live here and having more children.   Especially white Christian immigrants who get special dispensations and waivers to the rules.  Christian groups fighting the brown people and the LGBTQ+ from entering at the southern border saying the country is full are trying hard to bring in more white people who they figure will be racist bigots like them.   The problem they are having is the only people wanting to come here from Europe are from the impoverished states of eastern Europe and those are not always really “white” and will still bigoted are not always Christian.   That is why the current conservative racist bigots are in love with Viktor Orbán prime minister of Hungary who is super racist and bigoted against LGBTQ+.

Third thing people need to realize is these are asylum seekers.  The left where they were and came here because they were afraid they would be tortured and killed if they did not flee.   Or their kids would be.  The parents are often given a choice of their little kids working for the drug gangs or being killed.  What would you do?  What do you think LGBTQ+ people will have to do if DeathSantis takes over, we will have to go to another country and ask for asylum.  What if that country then deported us as soon as they heard why we were trying to enter and informed the Proud Boys gang where we were going to be sent and when.   

Fourth thing I want to point out is that along with being asshole racist the majority of the CBP and ICE are hateful bigots against the LGBTQ+.  Gay people and trans people are not even given hearings by most of these people they are simply ejected from the country.  At time the ICE / border patrol has taken the extra step of telling the gangs that are threatening these people what flights or buses they are coming back on so they are met as soon as they get there by a horrible fate.   Think if DeathSantis ran the border and was in charge of deportations, what would he make sure happened to the LGBTQ+ immigrants.   And in order to get asylum the person asking must explain why including what gang is trying to harm them or their children so they must declare they or their kids are LGBTQ+.   They cannot just try to hide it, and they should not have to hide it being LGBTQ+.  It is not something to be ashamed of, it is not a disease to be cured.  Hugs

Melissa Nuñez is the 34th LGBTQ individual killed in Honduras this year.

A transgender activist who was deported back to Honduras in July after seeking asylum in the U.S. was shot dead by gunmen there on October 18.

Melissa Nuñez, 42, was killed in Morocelí, 40 miles east of the capital Tegucigalpa, by unidentified gunmen on a motorcycle, local media reported. According to nonprofit Reportar Sin Miedo, Nuñez was leaving home when she was fatally shot by “hooded individuals”.

Police said Nuñez had dropped friends off and was leaving their house talking on a cellphone when she was gunned down, according to the Associated Press. “The motive behind the crime is thought to be a personal issue with her enemies,” police spokesman Miguel Carranza said. Nuñez’ sister, Glenda de Jesús Nuñez, said Nuñez had lived in the US for about 25 years before visiting family in Honduras.

Indyra Mendoza, general coordinator of Cattrachas, a Tegucigalpa-based lesbian feminist organization, said Nuñez had traveled home to Honduras in December of 2021, but tried to return to the U.S. in July, when she was denied entry. She was living in Miami at the time, after many years in New York. Mendoza told the Washington Blade that Nuñez had sought asylum in the U.S. but did not know on what grounds.

An initial investigation indicated that Nuñez was killed by two shots to the head, Mendoza told Reportar Sin Miedo.

According to Cattrachas, Nuñez is the 34th LGBTQ individual killed in Honduras this year. “They continue to kill us, they continue to violate our rights,” said Danny Reyes, who is with the LGBTQ advocacy organization Rainbow Movement. “We demand that the Honduran government do its best to start ensuring social justice.”

“The violence in Honduras continues to increase,” said Merlin Eguigure, coordinator of the Visitación Padilla Women for Peace Movement. “The government should declare a state of emergency on this issue.”

Friends and trans advocates gathered in Queens last month at a candlelight vigil organized by Make the Road New York. The Corona Plaza gathering in Queens featured pictures of Nuñez and signs with messages including “#NotOneMore! Stop killing us!”, “#JusticeforMelissa” and “No transwomen safe in Central America.”

Nuñez “fought for trans communities to be able to walk in public without being harassed by the police, to decriminalize sex work, to create more protections for all immigrant communities,” said Make the Road New York in a statement. “Let us transform this anger… into action so that the incarceration and deportation of our trans sisters ends now.”

House Nominee Wants Rape Victims To Appear Before “Community-Level Review” Board To Beg For Abortion

House Nominee Wants Rape Victims To Appear Before “Community-Level Review” Board To Beg For Abortion

Via press release from the DCCC:

Republican Bo Hines wants victims of rape and incest to go through “a community-level review process outside the jurisdiction of the federal government” to determine if they can get an abortion.

Hines advocated for this “death panel”-esque review process for women seeking an abortion in an interview with local TV station WRAL.

Hines has long advocated for extreme restrictions on abortion – he told the Raleigh News & Observer that “Abortion should be made illegal throughout the United States. No exceptions.”

In April, Hines called abortion the “greatest moral atrocity” and said it was a “mass genocide that occurred in our country.”

“Bo Hines would make women and girls who have already experienced horrific trauma beg for their right to get an abortion from a panel of complete strangers,” said DCCC spokesperson Monica Robinson.

“Bo Hines has demonstrated a disgusting lack of empathy for women this entire campaign. He doesn’t deserve the power to make health care decisions for us in Congress.”

Let’s have men appear before a community board and explain why they need Viagra. And they must show up with their wife and inquire as to if she is still fertile or not, because only married men should be having sex, and only for procreative purposes. They should also have to do a demonstration that they actually can’t get it up, to ensure that the medicine is for them and not for someone else.

Imagine a rape/incest victim having to tell total strangers what happened, and them questioning her. I wonder if this guy has a daughter and would present her before a committee where they question her about her rape and sexual history. No, he would send her off to her ‘aunt’s house” in NY or CA.

This man help push a police of separating children from their parents at the Southern border.  He belongs to a party that has cut funding for child healthcare, food assistance programs, school meals, and any assistance program that helps kids.   Now suddenly the focus on trans kids.   They love the culture wars and worrying about the sexual organs / gender expression of other people.     Hugs

Politico reports:

A deluge of radio spots and mailers targeting transgender children is hitting swing-state voters as part of a broad ad campaign directed by prominent Trump administration alums. Polling rarely registers transgender-related issues as a top priority for voters, with other topics like the economy and public safety taking the lead in this midterm cycle.

But America First Legal, launched by longtime Donald Trump aide Stephen Miller, has plastered airwaves and mailboxes with the issue ahead of the election — all without mentioning candidates currently running for office, as both groups are registered nonprofits.

Ads targeting transgender children have spread in at least 25 states across the political spectrum — from Texas to Illinois to Michigan — in the last month.

Darling of the “detransition” movement comes out again as transgender

https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/11/darling-detransition-movement-comes-transgender/

I wonder if those who tried to use the movement she helped build and the other haters will continue to use her and her prior comments without mentioning she has recanted what she was preaching.    Hugs 

She tried to “do everything to make these feelings go away,” but the only thing that worked “was accepting them.”

Like the ex-gay movement that rose to prominence in the early 2000s and then came crashing down as leaders recanted their “conversions,” the detransition movement is showing similar signs of a crack-up.

Ky Schevers is just one of the prominent voices of the detransition movement to reconsider her choice to reject her gender evolution and publicly denounce transition. She began her transition in college but ended it after coming to the belief that gender dysphoria was a false idea caused by misogyny and trauma, a theory she shared widely in interviews and online.

Now Schevers – who is transmasculine and uses she/her pronouns – has regrets about her place in the detrans movement. From 2013 to 2020, she regularly wrote and made videos about her detransition. She was featured in several major publications – even interviewed by anti-trans journalist Katie Herzog – to promote the idea that transgender identity isn’t legitimate and that gender dysphoria was a mix of internalized sexism and trauma response for her.

But now she’s speaking out against the movement she once supported.

“Trans people deserve access to support, and it makes no sense to shut down people’s access to medical transition just because some people end up detransitioning,” she told Slate.

The number of people reporting detransition is small. According to a study this year from UCLA’s Williams Institute, 1.3 million adults in the U.S. identify as transgender, or 0.05 % of the population. Another 300,000 youth, ages 13-17, do so, as well.

Of those who transition, about eight percent report detransitioning, according to a 2015 survey by the National Center for Transgender Equality, and most – 62 percent – of that eight percent said detransition was temporary. A 50-year survey in Sweden revealed about two percent of the trans population regretted undergoing gender-affirming surgery.

Schevers said the detransition movement she helped spark became overtly transphobic and repressive and left no room for doubt or questioning individuals.

While she came to believe her own gender dysphoria was in check, it came roaring back over time. “My sense of being a woman unraveled, and I was feeling more like a dude or a gender weirdo,” Schevers said. “But I was fighting against these feelings because I’d built a life in the detransition community, and I knew a lot of the other women in the community wouldn’t be happy with it if I came out as trans.”

The detrans movement assigns a variety of reasons to what they consider the false concept of gender dysphoria and provides attendant solutions to the non-existent problem.

Detrans promoters liken the urge to transition to drug or alcohol addiction, encouraging sufferers to avoid triggers and commit to abstinence, concepts adopted from 12-step programs. They characterize dysphoria as internalized misogyny stemming from a lack of self-love. One theory, known as “rapid onset gender dysphoria,” describes being transgender as a social contagion spread among adolescent girls online, like accusations of witchcraft among young women at the Salem witch trials.

Schevers says of her own dysphoria, “I tried to explain it in a radical feminist framework, and find the root causes, and do everything to make these feelings go away, and that didn’t really work. The only thing that did work to make them go away was accepting them. I had to make a move to accept them.”

 
 

Florida medical boards vote to force trans youth to de-transition with new medical ban

https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2022/10/florida-medical-boards-vote-force-trans-youth-de-transition-new-medical-ban/

Again politics and hate over accepted medical science.  Gender-affirming care for both adolescents and adults has been endorsed by the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Psychiatric Association, and many other professional groups as necessary and frequently lifesaving for transgender individuals. One doctor wrote ““By proposing an alternative standard of care, Florida is ignoring the broad consensus among the medical community and the weight of peer-reviewed medical literature,” AAP president Dr. Moira Szilaygi said in written testimony. ” Plus to try to get unacceptable hateful ban on real medical care these people had to lie, repeatedly.  Vice News reported in August that 10 researchers whose work was cited in Florida’s guidance say that their research was misrepresented or distorted to justify denying gender-affirming care.   Proponents of the ban were reportedly allowed to speak first, some making misleading and false claims. One doctor who testified in favor of the ban falsely claimed that 90% of trans youth de-transition.  These are the same people who claim that the covid vaccine causes death and that ivermectin is a treatment for Covid instead of real medications designed for Covid.  They don’t believe in science or even medical care, they want profit and power.   Hugs

The committee cut public comment short, leading some to call the hearing a “sham.”

Florida medical boards vote to force trans youth to de-transition with new medical ban

A joint committee of the Florida Board of Medicine and the Florida Board of Osteopathic Medicine has voted in favor of new proposed guidelines that would ban gender-affirming care for minors, which would effectively force transgender minors in the state to de-transition.

The new rules proposed by Florida’s Health Department in April and backed by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) would prohibit gender-affirming surgical procedures which experts say are almost never performed on young people, medications like puberty blockers and hormone therapy, and “any other procedure that alters primary or secondary sexual characteristics for the treatment of gender dysphoria” for patients under 18. They would also institute a mandatory 24-hour waiting period for adults seeking gender-affirming care.

Gender-affirming care for both adolescents and adults has been endorsed by the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Psychiatric Association, and many other professional groups as necessary and frequently lifesaving for transgender individuals. Vice News reported in August that 10 researchers whose work was cited in Florida’s guidance say that their research was misrepresented or distorted to justify denying gender-affirming care.

Last week’s vote occurred after five hours of heated testimony, which Harvard Law Cyberlaw Clinic’s Alejandra Caraballo characterized as “stacked against trans youth.” Proponents of the ban were reportedly allowed to speak first, some making misleading and false claims. One doctor who testified in favor of the ban falsely claimed that 90% of trans youth de-transition.

According to Common Dreams, public commentary was overwhelmingly against the ban.

“By proposing an alternative standard of care, Florida is ignoring the broad consensus among the medical community and the weight of peer-reviewed medical literature,” AAP president Dr. Moira Szilaygi said in written testimony. “We call on the Florida Board of Medicine to reject the call for the development of new standards of care and ensure that the existing evidence-based standards of care are allowed to be used to care for children and adolescents with gender dysphoria. Only by doing so will the health and well-being of children and adolescents with gender dysphoria in Florida be preserved.”

“Going on testosterone is the single best decision I have ever made in my life and that is not an exaggeration,” 15-year-old Yuri Tversky said in written testimony. “I am no longer suicidal. I can finally acknowledge and embrace the fact that I have a future, and a family that loves and accepts me for who I am. I don’t have to pretend to be someone else anymore. Until now. Until you.”

“Gender-affirming care saved my life at 16,” said Aaron Demlow. “Please do not take this vital care away from other young people like me.”

Retired social worker Susan Nasrani who counseled a transgender youth testified that “Having access to gender-affirming medical care kept this young person from deep depression and suicide.”

Despite this, the committee ended public comment early, telling opponents of the ban to email them. Queer activist Erin Reed called the proceedings “a sham hearing with fake experts.”

Following the committee’s vote, the proposed guidance advances for a final vote by the state’s full medical boards on November 4.
