In this episode titled "I Demand the Affirmation of Normal!", we delve into the recent pivotal decision by the United Kingdom to halt the routine prescription of puberty blockers for minors, a move reported by the BBC as a response to an independent review's findings on the lack of evidence regarding their safety and effectiveness. Highlighting a significant shift in the approach towards gender identity treatment for children, this development raises critical questions about the use of such medication, especially given the profound increase in referrals to the Gender Identity Development Service. The discussion also touches upon the historical context of puberty blockers, originally developed for entirely different medical purposes, and the concerning side effects associated with their use.
The podcast challenges the current narrative surrounding gender-affirming care, particularly for pre-pubescent children, and questions the medical and ethical implications of administering such treatments without adequate evidence of their safety. It brings to light the concerns over medical experimentation on children, citing the increasing recognition of these issues across various states in the U.S. and the call for a more cautious and evidence-based approach.
Furthermore, the episode scrutinizes the broader societal and medical discourse on normalcy, puberty, and the concept of gender transitioning, advocating for a return to common sense in health protection and a reevaluation of what constitutes normal biological development. It critically examines the implications of allowing children to make life-altering decisions about their gender identity at a young age, underscoring the importance of basing medical treatments on solid scientific evidence and a thorough understanding of human development.

The United Kingdom stops puberty blockers for minors. Now according to a recent story from the BBC National Health Service, England confirmed children will no longer routinely be prescribed puberty blockers at gender identity clinics. An independent review found there was not enough evidence that they are safe or effective.
puberty blockers which falsely pause for physical changes of puberty will now only be available as part of research. Boy, it's about time, don't you think? Now, here's something to consider. If these so called blockers are not absolutely permanent, which they're not as the gender crowd pull claims, then why do D transition females have low voices?
Hmm. Okay, publication of an independent review into gender identity services is anticipated in a few weeks. However, a 2022 interim report published by Dr. Hilary Kass found there were gaps in evidence around the drugs and called for a transformation in the model of care for children with gender related distress. In 2022, the number of referrals to the Gender Identity Development Service or GUIDs. G IDs is their acronym acronym increased from 250 per year, that's 250 cases per year to over get this 5000 Watt, that's 20 times more. So I'm glad to see that the United Kingdom considered by all accounts to be far more politically and socially liberal than the United States is taking a hard and common sense stand on this issue. They joined legislators in 19 US states, recognizing medical experimentation on children is just plain wrong out of control and abusive.
This is child abuse, guys. Now why does parents rights and education care about it? Because kids are being solicited and recruited for gender transition care by K through 12. School staff with out their parents knowledge or consent.
Let's dial this back and ask a fundamental question.
When did the use of gender transition drugs for pre pubescent kids start?
Lou Parolin, a drug on the World Health Organization's list of essential metals
sens was patented in 1973. And it was approved for medical use in the United States in 1985. Just a little bit less than 40 years ago.
It was originally developed to perform Okay, wait for it. Chemical castration of violent sex offenders. Oh my goodness. It is sold under the brand name now Lupron and is a manufactured hormone used to treat prostate cancer, breast cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and as part of transgender hormone therapy, stopping puberty. Now, let's just consider some of the side effects for children. Body aches or pain, chest tightness, chills, coughs, difficulty in breathing, Ear congestion, fever, headache, loss of voice, muscle aches, noisy breathing, pain or redness at the injection site. runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, unusual tiredness or weakness, irritability, mood or mental changes really.
Now keep in mind that these children before they start taking this medication are healthy.
Hmm. Okay, so that's just the puberty blockers side effects. Okay, then there are the ensuing side effects from cross sex hormones
which are
administered immediately following Lupron.
Here are some of those side effects. A one of them is diminished bone density for girls taking testosterone. That's a big one.
And a year ago, the American College of Cardiology reported people with gender dysphoria taking hormone replacements, as part of gender affirmation therapy face a substantially increased risk of serious cardiac events including stroke, heart attack, and pulmonary embolism. And yet major medical associations in the United States including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Medical Association, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, and others agree, they all agree you guys that gender affirming care is safe, effective, beneficial, and medically necessary. What? How dare they okay.
Is Enough Enough? I'm gonna use the word normal. Specifically, because the medical community have bought into the radical belief there is no more normal and I object. Okay, what's the definition of normal The medical definition, quote, occurring naturally and not because of disease, inoculation or any experimental treatment.
It is normal for human beings to grow and change from children into adults.
Puberty is normal. The very notion that stopping or quote, pausing and quote, normal, biological puberty can be medically beneficial for Childhood Development is over the top ridiculous. Now I demand truth. And we should all be demanding truth. The affirmation of normal, we have got to stop avoiding the word. It's normal.
When an eight year old says he or she is the opposite sex, the medical experiment crowd rushes to stop normal biological development.
How can a child know he or she is really the opposite sex if he or she has never fully experienced their own sacks. Not until one has completed the normal natural puberty process and
become fully woman or man? Can they legitimately question their own sex?
Or what sex they want to be?
Okay, then there's this notion that eight year olds have the decision making capability necessary to make life altering decisions. Okay, a lot of research has been done to determine at what age level decisions can be most successfully made. This is commonly known guys, but suffice it to say, none of these sources even consider the sufficient brain development of children ages one through 12. And into into adolescence, of course, the proof of poor decision making by adolescence into young adulthood is overwhelming.
poor decision making, right? Anybody who's been a teenager or has a teenager knows if they don't make the greatest decisions. Okay, just spend an hour on social media.
And last, but not least, I mean, can humans actually change their sex? Is that even possible? The answer is no. Absolutely not. Humans cannot change their sex.
Now, can we just acknowledge DNA? Sex is determined at fertilization and during embryonic development. People may change many features about their lives, including their interests, their hobbies, their diet, friends, or even careers. However, a person's genetic inheritance, their biological sex is an immutable and alterable characteristic.
Changing outward appearance, including surgical removal of reproductive organs, and taking sex hormones can alter someone's appearance. But the medical crazies call this gender transitioning, but surgical removal and replacement with fake body parts does not change a person's biological sex.
We look forward to a return to normal with common sense health protection for all children and adults. In our interview Friday, I'm looking forward to introducing you to our guest Camille Kiefel. She is a de transitioner dedicated to helping those who have been misled and want to get back to normal. Thank you so much for listening to today's episode. To keep up with everything we're doing.
