This is a manure pile. Children are NOT in charge. Parental consent is required and most trans kids have a team of clinicians making recommendations and discussing benefits and risks with the entire family.
@otha cindy When parents are being emotionally manipulated that if they don't do this the kids will kill themselves? Is that an informed decision? It isn't true. You support your child's distress and connect. Name one person in the UK that killed themselves simply because they did not get puberty blockers after the Kiera Bell decision?
As another father fighting this now, I've been in contact with the father shown in this video. I'm walking the living hell he already went through years ago. I broke down speaking to someone else last night about my situation. You have no idea the demons we are up against with the gender cult and what toll this has on those of us fighting it.
When we are weak, God's strength is available to us. I hope you can find rest and guidance and strength in Christ. His peace is unexplainable when we drink from the well of living water. Thank you for fighting and having the courage to stand up to this. The ripple effects of your endurance are unknown but I can imagine will contribute to the prevention of many other children being tormented and traumatized by this agenda.
Maybe consider that healthcare should be free then :D Or maybe just listening to the people that's actually affected? (In all the age brackets of TGNB individuals, not just teenagers whose opinions you don't care for since "they're misguided" because as much as people like to think otherwise, teenagers are not the only ones who are trans and there are long time TGNB people who share their experiences and what it's actually like rather than someone who doesn't even UNDERSTAND telling you what is good for you.)

@@FAInsanity No one said it was only teenagers but teenagers brains aren't fully developed and they are impulsive and don't consider consequences so well. They also tend to think that grown ups don't understand them and forget that every grown up was a teenager too.
@@ayeright320 True, but not every adult has went through their similar circumstances. That's where you should give the floor to adult who have went through similar experiences to them. Their parents might want what's best for them, but they can't provide that if they don't even think what their child is dealing with is real and has a supportive attitude towards them.
Is there any other situation where medical and psychiatric professionals let children self-diagnose and then automatically proceed as though that self-diagnosis must be accurate???
@@ta_nimal2023 is it really the teens asking for it, or parents/guardians asking for it? And do those medications lead kids to a life of sterilization, sexual dysfunction, and chronic medical care?
@@aperson_1852 I can say personally that my own experience being diagnosed with ADD and being given Adderall (amphetamines) in elementary school has given me direct experience with how we medicalize normal parts of childhood and development (i.e. a boy being easily bored by school lessons, not having good task management skills), and how parents, teachers and clinicians can, with the best of intentions force unnecessary medical interventions onto kids. Luckily I reached an age were i felt I no longer needed medication and could just stop taking ADD meds...
It's weird that these children are allowed to make decisions about their fertility at such a young age. I was not allowed to have my tubes tied before the age of 30, because I only had one child, and might change my mind.
Just wondering (speculating, really, no proof of conspiracy) if maybe this serves to agendas: boosting Liberal party popularity, second helping to _further_ trim the population, since some are of the opinion that we are already stressing natural resources. Add gender selectivity (of the east) to gender dysphoria in the west and we just about hit the head of the nail in reducing the global population.
Excellent point , I had a myroectomy at 36 for huge fibroid on womb removal , however the consultant said that I had many fibroids left still that would be hard to remove as one was very close to an artery and he said he got out what he could , but to remove them all he would have been “ hacking away at my womb and the procedure would have turned into a hysterectomy, which he said I was “too young for “ I ended up having a hysterectomy two years ago with ovaries left in but at least I was 45 years old by then .
What's that, that he's thinks rationally, that children shouldn't be allowed to take on making adult decisions with their bodies at such a young age? If I can't get a tattoo till I'm 18, same should go for gender affirmation surgery.
These moms’ testimonies are heartbreaking. They really are willing to have they child hate them just so they can make sure their kids grow up safely and heathy. Absolute brave warriors!
YT has to be careful. They too know the lawsuits are coming. Also banning sometimes helps the truth out. But this could easily have 3 million views, if YT was on the good side.
I was thinking the same thing. I got a online article about this doc and looked it up here on youtube and got it done straightway. I don't see this lasting but maybe a week or two. It will of course be removed completely without cause beyond it not fitting into the ever darkening politically correct utterly absurd narritive. Crazy world we live in today when you just can't get ALL the information off of the "information superhighway" internet any longer. Don't know where human kind is heading to but it isn't a good place for sure and I just pray I am not any around when human kind arrives there.
I have a feeling that we will have so many more to come. Hopefully we will soon have more collective understanding of all of this and the tools to help them thrive
Absolutely, to come out and admit they were wronged and misled, especially on such an incredibly personal, difficult topic. One of the bravest things anyone can do. Most people will never admit those things. I agree and also hope they get all the support and love in the world ❤
The doctors who are raking in the money by performing all these procedures on kids should be afraid, very afraid of the lawsuits that await them in the future.
@@happydays6199 I guess most of the recipients of the surgery have yet to have enough time to realize the true damage it's done. The trans movement after all is still a relatively new phenomenon and it's gonna take time for the teenagers who transition to grow up and have a proper perspective of what they've done to themselves.
this might take a while. "transphobia" card is still very strong, transphobia is still very real in most parts of the world, and what's happening in 1st word countries right now definitely isn't going to make things any clearer...
The emotional manipulation of parents is so unethical. I feel for them and the awful situation these doctors are putting them in. They know that guilt is the best way to manipulate a parent. It’s unconscionable.
Thank you so much for doing this! I was a disability advocate and have worked with clients who have organ transplants, hysterectomies, mastectomies. Those procedures cause such severe side effects through every body system. When I first started hearing about gender reassignment for children I kept thinking HOW can this possibly work? How come no one is talking about all those side effects? It can't magically be that they disappear just because the patient is getting gender reassignment instead of having cancer or kidney failure. This movie makes clear to me that those well-known side effects do NOT disappear. These poor, poor children. My heart is breaking with this.
Preach! I tried estrogen for HRT and I am a real woman and it gave me massive side effects even under a week. What on earth does estradiol do to a man?!!!
Please speak up again and again and again. Tell the world what you know, which they don't know. If everyone with specialist knowledge speaks up we WILL win (Kara Dansky). I am a Transwidow: I have watched the mental and physical breakdown of my then husband, encouraged by psychiatrists, and I endured his gas-lighting over 12 years. He was an adult and so must take some responsibility for his criminal actions. Children are lured by AGPs like my husband into making irreversible changes to their bodies through puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries. We have not talked NEARLY enough about the recklessness, no the CRIMINAL responsibility of the medical practioners: the psychiatrists/psychologists, endocrinologists and surgeons carrying out these grotesque experiments. They have abandoned the first principle of medicine: "First of all, do no harm". Their morals are those of the Nazi doctor Mengele: they are happy to produce deeply disturbed, permanently damaged adults. I see the medics as torturers of deeply deluded adults. Please copy and paste elsewhere if you agree.
Beware of being told the "good reasons for doing something and the bad reasons for not doing it" masquerading as "informed consent." True informed consent means hearing "the good and bad of doing it and the good and bad of not doing it."
And kids cannot give true informed consent. They aren't allowed to sign informed consent documents without their parents for anything else I can think of. This is insane.
It's a KNOWN FACT that the brain is not fully developed until at least 25. All financial advisors advise parents not to create a trust for their children prior to that age or older because it is KNOWN how impetuous young adults are prone to being. And the harm they coul ddo themselves in th long and short term if given large sums of money before they are fully mature. Why then would we allow them to make lifelong decisions at ages as young as 11?
It's really unfortunate that this issue has become so politically volatile that we can't even have a discussion about whether medical interventions for kids are safe and effective. The truth is, no one really knows how these treatments are going to affect kids in the long run. It's completely irresponsible to promote puberty blockers and cross sex hormones for kids without knowing the long term effects of these treatments. Let's stop shouting and start talking about this. Let's start caring about the kids, instead of using them for an agenda, when we already have our minds made up.
Big Pharmaceutical Companies pay to groups on social media and MSM to cancel people that have a different opinion about this drugs with the excuse to call them transpobic and bigots. It's a big big agenda with millions of dollars in the game. That is why is so difficult to really get this from a perspective of really care for the kids.
The Transwidows need a documentary like this. We have many, many observations about the porn or the childhood abuse (or both) that our former spouses experienced, and the deceit that their "therapists" encouraged them to engage in, including using up all of the money that was intended to be put towards the college costs and moneys for other needs of the children.
I'm glad I got an ad for this video. At the age of 13 I had to choose between my two parents, and that choice alone has screwed with me, so a choice of this size would do so much worse to any kid around that age. You don't know the future, and you don't understand anything about the world or yourself even, your just a kid until you have the world punch you like it did me, and then you begin to learn. It takes a lot of time to figure it out, it takes a lot of time to figure yourself out. Nobody, and I mean nobody should let anybody or anything try and convince them to let their young and easily mislead and misguided child make a decision greater then that of a class they'll take in school. Otherwise, you alone might have signed your childs own death warrent with your two hands.
The problem is religious conservatives who supplant medical science with scripture which, in turn, creates minority stress syndrome. If there is a god then he or she is going to be very pissed off by this nonsense.
@@CriticalThinker1000 Yeah, I agree with you. Have you heard of the cases where gay teenagers are pressured to transition to the opposite sex so they can be "trans and straight"? It completely makes no sense.
@@CriticalThinker1000 I'm usually happy to blame the bible-thumpers but they're not the main culprits in this. The hostility towards "hets" is one of the things it's just not polite to talk about, but trying to force people to "agree" to something that is an obvious violation of reality in trying to intimidate others into "agreeing" to the "reality" of your personal fantasies.
WHOA be careful there. Many who threaten suicide are extremely vulnerable and fragile and not of the subset that would abuse such threats.

@@sgtted8225 Psychological speaking, u must be really psychopathic just to be able to do this. and there are by far way more people that aren't extremely psychopathic.
I heard a couple of US detransitioners say during an interview on an podcast hosted by an Irish man in response to a question asking if they have considered suing that they had enquired, but the statute of limitations in their states was only 12 months. I haven’t heard if any people who have come to realise they made a mistake by transitioning as kids and young adults in 12 months or under, which is why the US is likely not already seeing law suits. Maybe legislators need to carve out an exception to this 12 month rule so these detransitioners can have their day in court and tell these healthcare practitioners how badly they let them down and damaged their bodies.
Glad to hear you came by that interview without knowing about Graham Linehan (who is quite famous in the UK) - it's great to know we're not speaking in our own circle.
@@kai-jm7bb I looked up how much the trans medicine market is projected to grow in the next few years, and if I read it correctly, it stated that in 2019, it was worth about $318 million, and by 2026, it’s predicted it will be at $1.5 billion. That’s about a 500% increase in 7 years. No way the industries that profit from this are gonna let go of that cash, and they are who own the policy makers, so…
I always FELT very masculine growing up. A lot of trauma. None of this gender stuff was really around, at least in my life, and I didn’t start feeling feminine until I had a baby and also did a ton of healing since. I’m so happy this push wasn’t around me as a teen. God doesn’t make mistakes. Children need to heal from stress and trauma. Not change appearances.
Same, except I didn't have a baby. It can take a lot to love oneself as a female in this world - we all already know this - and being gender nonconforming isn't a symptom of needing medical intervention. Some males can also hate themselves as males, especially if they're feminine or never were allowed to feel their emotions or express themselves outside the very limited stereotypes for males...it doesn't require surgery/hormones, it requires deep soul-searching and healing, self-acceptance. You're right, God doesn't make mistakes. When I was about 16, I wanted to cut off my breasts (this was almost 20 years ago), or at least bind them. I wanted to look androgynous, I didn't want to be seen as female. I remember looking in the mirror and knowing, I will never be male, and I'm not going to destroy my body to be something other than what I am, so I'm going to wait and see what happens. I'm so glad transgenderism wasn't something being pushed at that time, because I could've been swayed.
As a parent of an almost 5 year old this is terrifying. I was a teenage goth but at least wearing bad eye makeup and fishnet shirts didn't destroy my fertility. Hoping this social contagion lessens by the time she is a teenager... Gosh being a parent is terrifying.
This is something I've come to learn from my research, many of these kids are not t, if anything they're more likely to be gay, or they may be experiencing autogynephilia which is rare but more common than t.
Some heartbreaking examples here. People who should have had help as youngsters were damaged even further. This is horrific. I do hope this excellent documentary will make a difference.
9:48: She talks for a while, then ends with “Little boys should be baking, and little girls should be allowed to play with trucks.” Ok, fine. So why not just buy my son an Easy Bake Oven and my daughter an RC Grave Digger, and let them be themselves? Why are puberty blockers, hormones and surgeries needed at all?
I remember wanting to be a boy growing up because I thought boys were stronger smarter and better than girls. I felt so weak all the time and didn't like it, now that I'm 19 I realize my insecurities and have grown up to deal with those issues. Imagine if I had a parent who put me on blockers cuz I said I wanted to be a boy, I think I'd be suicidal
This makes me so sad. I just want to cry. To all the girls and young ladies out there - it's OK to be, "boyish," that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with your body, or your mind. You don't have to change. It is ok to be who you are. To all the boys and young men- its OK to be, "feminine." You don't have to change. Its ok to be as you are. Maybe there is a cookie cutter shape for a man, and for a woman, but if you don't fit neatly into it, that's ok. You dont have to. You dont have to let anyone cut you, or change what you are made out of, or shape you into anything else. You can be just as you are, and even though you might not fit in with everyone else, that might also be what makes you unique, and special, and interesting. And, anyone that tries to convince you that you need to cut your body, or take drugs, or do anything else to yourself so you can fit into their stupid idea of what a man or a woman is "supposed" to be, can go ahead and F*** off!

It's a strange contrast in the push for puberty blockers that proponents simultaneously want to prevent physical maturity while granting guardian-less (mature) decision-making.
I cannot follow the logic of Michelle Forcier, which I find to be flawed. With no justification, she drives too deep a wedge between biological sex and gender to affirm what she calls "gender diversity." But what can that mean when those who wish to undergo the transition do so with the intent of identifying with that which can only be seen as the stereotypical expression of the opposing gender identity? What else can their conception be of that into which they want to transition? It seems to me, at the very least, that if one wants to realize the ideal of "gender diversity" one can do so only by expanding the range within which one can be "male" while remaining biologically male (or female while remaining biologically female). Making the transition is eo ipso to exclude the ideal of diversity,
From here in the UK I'm watching this and noticing that in the US parents seem to have a complete belief and trust in pharmaceutical medicine. One parent said that on hearing from their child that they thought they were transgender her gut instinct was to call a pediatrician. I don't know about anyone else in the UK but that absolutely would NOT be my gut instinct. Nor would I take them to a doctor, hospital or psychiatrist. My gut instinct would be to remove the external influences on that child. Take away social media, remove them from school, spend all day every day with the child in the family doing wholesome, healthy activities. I believe that after time the child would desist naturally. A cultural difference maybe?
Trans people have always existed. Why would taking away social media and other external influences change that? You can't make someone cis by hoping it goes away.
@@user-hr6lo8yt6x Gender non-conforming people have always existed. The cult ideology that pretends men can be women and women can be men has not always existed. No one is a subset of their own sex, 'cis' is meaningless. You can't make someone 'cis' by hoping your beliefs become reality.
@@apebass2215 GNC is not the same as trans. Both have always existed as long as gender has existed. Read any book on cultural anthropology and you will find this to be true.

For such a litigious nation, I would've thought by now some law suits would be pending. That may be the case but I have also been hearing that the statute of limitations is only a year for this type of law suit, coupled with the fact you will need a fairly strong detransitioner, who by many accounts would been through a mental rollercoaster till the point of thinking of suing. I pray for Americans...
If you watch part IV of Dysphoric, which is here on RUclips, there is some discussion of this. It seems the procedures are often paid for through insurance companies, so if there is a suit, it is settled by the company with a non-disclosure agreement. As a result nobody knows how many detransitioners are going through the civil courts.
It is because of one of those court cases I learned a horrifying fact too little testosterone in teen boys causes a 10 point drop in IQ! A 15 year old boy sued his doctor for prescribing him hormone blockers and his IQ dropped from 95 to 85. With the woke mob crying nothing will go wrong, we have to cling to these cases and hold them up as proof there is something wrong.
There is a lawsuit about self-id in sport in Connecticut, brought by female athletes who lost their senior year to boys who self identified as female after racing as boys their whole life. It’s somewhat stalled but it so clearly a problem (see Olympic issues that are coming now). The damage to children is even more insidious- and life long- I believe these lawsuits will be coming. In droves. It’s just too new and untested, the issues are now coming to light.
I've come to realize something. My 2 year old acts like she has ADHD, I truly believe she does because of the signs, afterall I myself have ADHD. My wife says you can't tell when they're that young, you have to give children more time before they can be diagnosed. This situation where I analyze my child and attribute something to her is the same as parents who have 4 year olds and claim their child is gay or t. Your child may actually be gay or t, but they need time to grow, it could be a phase where they're exploring different things, same as my child who may have ADHD but she needs time to grow.
How could a four-year-old be gay, though? All kids are asexual and aromantic until they hit adolescence. I mean, it'd be really weird if kids were attracted to each other, whether it was a phase or not.
@@isitsweet9567 I read an interesting piece from an author, she says girls are often attracted to boys before boys are attracted to girls. But often girls have to wait for boys to catch up. So girls may develop attraction to their female friends because they’re female friends can return the feelings/attention. But that phase doesn’t last long because eventually the boys do catch up and are interested in them. It’s absurd to believe we know their sexual orientation the first time they experience it, because it’s not defined yet, it’s still developing. It’s also absurd to assume only children know themselves because children don’t know themselves. They’re still learning who they are. How does a girl know she’s lesbian if she’s never been on a date or kissed a boy? But that’s where we are now because the adults have decided to interfere with the normal development of children.
@@FJB2020LGB Asexual is a sexual orientation. Also, the second argument that it might just be a phase due to age could be wrong in a lot of cases. Young females who have “crushes” on older males AND older females don’t apply. Of course, though, there might be some cases where people transition out of their chosen sexual orientation. That doesn’t mean it’s because they were too immature or pubescent to know. You can’t necessarily blame everything on age. Especially for older people who transition in or out of a sexual orientation.
@@animosity911 if you know anything about children, you know nothing is cemented, especially before and during puberty. The idea we know the sexual orientation of a child, or that a child knows their own sexual orientation, is absurd. It’s something that takes time and years of discovery. So many kids are labeled as gay or lesbian or t when the child has never been on a date or kissed anyone. Adults need to stop interfering and let children grow and develop naturally.
34:00 I really have the utmost respect for this guy. The fact that he acknowledges taking the identity of woman, and using it like a costume, when there are real, living breathing women who are born into this life, who didn't chose it, and who just are female. I hope he's doing well.
He is a truly beautiful man, and an important voice which we would be wise to listen to, regarding why there is not wider acceptance of men who are not interested in stereotypical representations of manhood, yet are still very much men.
Yes, they do. I’ve noticed it is because they actually have no reasonable talking points to defend their position…they just repeat the part lines verbatim
How many kids get potentially dangerous echo chamber advice. Repeatedly bombarded by one side of the argument. What’s wrong with just letting nature take its course?
@37:16 interviewee states that puberty blockers are "completely reversible" and then immediately contradicts herself by stating that "there may be some potential for loss of fertility" so fertility protection measures may be appropriate. For viewers who are basically clueless about these issues it would have been a good idea to clearly label which of the "experts" were blatantly lying.

@@AisforawsomeStudios , Interestingly enough, the film amplifies the voices of an incredibly diverse group of people with a wide range of political and ideological persuasions. Colin Wright is an evolutionary biologist with a public track record of debating Christian conservatives. Gary Powell is a well known gay rights activist from the UK. Natasha Chart is a radical feminist who’s spent her entire career on the left side of the political divide. To characterize the voices of the detransitioners in this film as “right wing” or “fascist” is incredibly lacking in intellectual honesty. It’s a thinly veiled attempt to shut down important discourse. It won’t prove effective here. It’s also well worth noting that true fascism seeks to silence dissent, which is what comments like yours seem to be doing. Best of luck!

Such a Eye-opening documentary! I totally did not expect to see such high quality documentary on RUclips!

People of both sides definitely must check this thoroughly created gem!
The placebo effect is powerful. So is the sunk cost fallacy. Many people insist transition helped them because they want to believe it did. It's painful to admit you shouldn't have bothered.
that was very powerful and informative. I agree with what the journalist suggested about how there's just sex and we are whatever we are--it's society that breaks down items/actions/clothing into 'masculine' and 'feminine'. We need to focus more on why our children get it into their heads that "because they play with [this] toy they are/aren't male/female." If a child like a truck or a doll, the only thing is means is that 'my child likes a truck/doll.' Society is the one that says, 'oh, trucks are masculine.' Well, a different culture may say, 'trucks are feminine.' so why are we going to let society tell us what we are? We should be teaching our children that they can wear and play with whatever they want and it doesn't make them any less or more a man or a woman. You're a woman/man because of your sex and that's all. If we really want to push back on gender norms, stop letting them tell us that who we are. Amazing documentary. I hope many people see this.
Then it's a good thing in countries with elections we can quietly pay attention to who supports this and fire them when they are up for re-election. They can support the woke mob and silence us, but we still vote like everyone. Politicians live off of public's apathy and desire to bitch rather than take action.

Michelle Forcier… one of the greatest threats to children who are or think they are transgender & their families. I listen to her talk & can’t fathom anyone takes her seriously. But they do! Which makes her that much more dangerous. These adults who aren’t helping these children mentally & emotionally first are destructive to these kids lives. Praying God will open others eyes to these evils & not allow them to continue this abuse on anymore children.
My understanding, Transgender is a movement, not a science at all. The events are existing mostly in Western nations, where family lives are not solid and even having single parent. If we could fix the family life - back again to God and love and forgive, then this sad events would be reduced dramatically. I am a father of two adult children, woman and man. An Asian man lived in Australia now in Europe. God blesses us.

8:57 The therapist admits to immediately validating the dysphoria, and by her own admission her assessment is inherently biased, unprofessional and experimental. She uses no objective tool or measure in an evaluation, and if you listen, she um and ahs through this explanation of her practice, which I'm certain is not a "free" service! This abandonment of objective measures and self serving pseudo-scientific approach, is a problem across the board in mental health. Who holds these practitioners accountable for a lack of professionalism, and how do the patients know what is or isn't a reliable assessment, or an evidence based intervention? Without gaurdrails what's to stop a "professional" from exploiting a vulnerable child with suggestion and gaslighting. "The way I would treat a patient with gender dysphoria is, is very unique to that patient. I think the, the primary goal that I have, when I'm first evaluating, a child who's coming in with gender dysphoria, is um, just getting a sense of how they're feeling, validating that feeling, um, and then kind of exploring where that might be coming from, whether or not there's any underlying sigh* issue or trauma or circumstance that may contribute, um, and then to have a really, a really um, (mouth shrug) sincere conversation with them and the family, SIGH*, about how we might want to move forward, sigh*, from there". Screwing her lips sideways in a disclaimer expression, shoulders drooped, sighing, um, ah, rapid blinks. Why all the paraverbal dramatics around what should be high quality assessment tool that reduces the risk of observer bias? Wouldn't she want a QUALITY tool that ensures she isn't approving an intervention that involves the arrestment of sexual maturation, incredible risks to their physical health, and not to mention psychosocial development. Wouldn't she want a reliable method of ensuring she safeguards against sterilization eugenics? I'm guessing the cagey reply and paraverbal dramatics are because she knows she's using an assessment method that lacks reliability and is rife with her own bias. She learned of these concepts in her own training, even if her industry is blatantly ethically corrupted. She has a legal obligation to report patient abuse as well, and she knows she's complicit in facilitating it. She knows it's malfeasance.

This is a manure pile. Children are NOT in charge. Parental consent is required and most trans kids have a team of clinicians making recommendations and discussing benefits and risks with the entire family.

@@aperson_1852 I can say personally that my own experience being diagnosed with ADD and being given Adderall (amphetamines) in elementary school has given me direct experience with how we medicalize normal parts of childhood and development (i.e. a boy being easily bored by school lessons, not having good task management skills), and how parents, teachers and clinicians can, with the best of intentions force unnecessary medical interventions onto kids.
Luckily I reached an age were i felt I no longer needed medication and could just stop taking ADD meds...
It's weird that these children are allowed to make decisions about their fertility at such a young age. I was not allowed to have my tubes tied before the age of 30, because I only had one child, and might change my mind.

Exactly. I'm in my thirties and childfree. I don't think I'd get a tubal ligation on the state healthcare. Because "I might change my mind". Lol.
Just wondering (speculating, really, no proof of conspiracy) if maybe this serves to agendas: boosting Liberal party popularity, second helping to _further_ trim the population, since some are of the opinion that we are already stressing natural resources.

Excellent point , I had a myroectomy at 36 for huge fibroid on womb removal , however the consultant said that I had many fibroids left still that would be hard to remove as one was very close to an artery and he said he got out what he could , but to remove them all he would have been “ hacking away at my womb and the procedure would have turned into a hysterectomy, which he said I was “too young for “ I ended up having a hysterectomy two years ago with ovaries left in but at least I was 45 years old by then .
“Kids driving the bus” - tells you all you need to know about the mentality of this person

Thank you so much for doing this! I was a disability advocate and have worked with clients who have organ transplants, hysterectomies, mastectomies. Those procedures cause such severe side effects through every body system. When I first started hearing about gender reassignment for children I kept thinking HOW can this possibly work? How come no one is talking about all those side effects? It can't magically be that they disappear just because the patient is getting gender reassignment instead of having cancer or kidney failure. This movie makes clear to me that those well-known side effects do NOT disappear. These poor, poor children. My heart is breaking with this.
Preach! I tried estrogen for HRT and I am a real woman and it gave me massive side effects even under a week. What on earth does estradiol do to a man?!!!
Please speak up again and again and again. Tell the world what you know, which they don't know. If everyone with specialist knowledge speaks up we WILL win (Kara Dansky). I am a Transwidow: I have watched the mental and physical breakdown of my then husband, encouraged by psychiatrists, and I endured his gas-lighting over 12 years. He was an adult and so must take some responsibility for his criminal actions. Children are lured by AGPs like my husband into making irreversible changes to their bodies through puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries. We have not talked NEARLY enough about the recklessness, no the CRIMINAL responsibility of the medical practioners: the psychiatrists/psychologists, endocrinologists and surgeons carrying out these grotesque experiments. They have abandoned the first principle of medicine: "First of all, do no harm". Their morals are those of the Nazi doctor Mengele: they are happy to produce deeply disturbed, permanently damaged adults. I see the medics as torturers of deeply deluded adults. Please copy and paste elsewhere if you agree.
Beware of being told the "good reasons for doing something and the bad reasons for not doing it" masquerading as "informed consent." True informed consent means hearing "the good and bad of doing it and the good and bad of not doing it."
👏Yess!!!
And kids cannot give true informed consent. They aren't allowed to sign informed consent documents without their parents for anything else I can think of. This is insane.

It's really unfortunate that this issue has become so politically volatile that we can't even have a discussion about whether medical interventions for kids are safe and effective. The truth is, no one really knows how these treatments are going to affect kids in the long run. It's completely irresponsible to promote puberty blockers and cross sex hormones for kids without knowing the long term effects of these treatments. Let's stop shouting and start talking about this. Let's start caring about the kids, instead of using them for an agenda, when we already have our minds made up.
@Yeehaw ?
Big Pharmaceutical Companies pay to groups on social media and MSM to cancel people that have a different opinion about this drugs with the excuse to call them transpobic and bigots.

I'm glad I got an ad for this video. At the age of 13 I had to choose between my two parents, and that choice alone has screwed with me, so a choice of this size would do so much worse to any kid around that age. You don't know the future, and you don't understand anything about the world or yourself even, your just a kid until you have the world punch you like it did me, and then you begin to learn. It takes a lot of time to figure it out, it takes a lot of time to figure yourself out. Nobody, and I mean nobody should let anybody or anything try and convince them to let their young and easily mislead and misguided child make a decision greater then that of a class they'll take in school. Otherwise, you alone might have signed your childs own death warrent with your two hands.
This is a difficult problem. It saddens me that so many children are in pain. Thank you to Benjamin Boyce for the link to this thought provoking film.

I heard a couple of US detransitioners say during an interview on an podcast hosted by an Irish man in response to a question asking if they have considered suing that they had enquired, but the statute of limitations in their states was only 12 months. I haven’t heard if any people who have come to realise they made a mistake by transitioning as kids and young adults in 12 months or under, which is why the US is likely not already seeing law suits. Maybe legislators need to carve out an exception to this 12 month rule so these detransitioners can have their day in court and tell these healthcare practitioners how badly they let them down and damaged their bodies.
The Irish gent would likely have been Graham Linehan.

That’s about a 500% increase in 7 years. No way the industries that profit from this are gonna let go of that cash, and they are who own the policy makers, so…

@@lebraunalbert6357 aren't we all! LMAOO
Same, except I didn't have a baby. It can take a lot to love oneself as a female in this world - we all already know this - and being gender nonconforming isn't a symptom of needing medical intervention. Some males can also hate themselves as males, especially if they're feminine or never were allowed to feel their emotions or express themselves outside the very limited stereotypes for males...it doesn't require surgery/hormones, it requires deep soul-searching and healing, self-acceptance. You're right, God doesn't make mistakes. When I was about 16, I wanted to cut off my breasts (this was almost 20 years ago), or at least bind them. I wanted to look androgynous, I didn't want to be seen as female. I remember looking in the mirror and knowing, I will never be male, and I'm not going to destroy my body to be something other than what I am, so I'm going to wait and see what happens. I'm so glad transgenderism wasn't something being pushed at that time, because I could've been swayed.
Why don’t we just start giving kids drivers licenses at age 9? By the same logic they should be fully equipped to handle heavy machinery.
“is your baby fine with antiquated heavy machinery?”
the parent: “yes”
“would she be fine to operate them?”
the parent: “yes”
As a parent of an almost 5 year old this is terrifying. I was a teenage goth but at least wearing bad eye makeup and fishnet shirts didn't destroy my fertility. Hoping this social contagion lessens by the time she is a teenager... Gosh being a parent is terrifying.
This is something I've come to learn from my research, many of these kids are not t, if anything they're more likely to be gay, or they may be experiencing autogynephilia which is rare but more common than t.

You can be just as you are, and even though you might not fit in with everyone else, that might also be what makes you unique, and special, and interesting.

It's a strange contrast in the push for puberty blockers that proponents simultaneously want to prevent physical maturity while granting guardian-less (mature) decision-making.
I cannot follow the logic of Michelle Forcier, which I find to be flawed. With no justification, she drives too deep a wedge between biological sex and gender to affirm what she calls "gender diversity." But what can that mean when those who wish to undergo the transition do so with the intent of identifying with that which can only be seen as the stereotypical expression of the opposing gender identity? What else can their conception be of that into which they want to transition? It seems to me, at the very least, that if one wants to realize the ideal of "gender diversity" one can do so only by expanding the range within which one can be "male" while remaining biologically male (or female while remaining biologically female). Making the transition is eo ipso to exclude the ideal of diversity,
Bravo, all. This is a priceless resource.
Michelle Forcier claims that puberty blockers are reversible. She should be force-fed them for ten years and then asked for her opinion afterwards.
She is evil incarnate.
From here in the UK I'm watching this and noticing that in the US parents seem to have a complete belief and trust in pharmaceutical medicine. One parent said that on hearing from their child that they thought they were transgender her gut instinct was to call a pediatrician. I don't know about anyone else in the UK but that absolutely would NOT be my gut instinct. Nor would I take them to a doctor, hospital or psychiatrist. My gut instinct would be to remove the external influences on that child. Take away social media, remove them from school, spend all day every day with the child in the family doing wholesome, healthy activities. I believe that after time the child would desist naturally. A cultural difference maybe?
@@yungpr1ma588 Nice projection.

@@user-hr6lo8yt6x Gender non-conforming people have always existed. The cult ideology that pretends men can be women and women can be men has not always existed. No one is a subset of their own sex, 'cis' is meaningless. You can't make someone 'cis' by hoping your beliefs become reality.
@@apebass2215 GNC is not the same as trans. Both have always existed as long as gender has existed. Read any book on cultural anthropology and you will find this to be true. Or you can just ignore it, I don't really care. I'm not going to convince you but history is not on your side. One day you will die and the next generation will be better. Have a nice day.
wow this is awesome..glad to see more documentaries like this that provide much needed balance the uncritical over-enthusiasm
For such a litigious nation, I would've thought by now some law suits would be pending.
That may be the case but I have also been hearing that the statute of limitations is only a year for this type of law suit, coupled with the fact you will need a fairly strong detransitioner, who by many accounts would been through a mental rollercoaster till the point of thinking of suing.
I pray for Americans...
If you watch part IV of Dysphoric, which is here on RUclips, there is some discussion of this. It seems the procedures are often paid for through insurance companies, so if there is a suit, it is settled by the company with a non-disclosure agreement. As a result nobody knows how many detransitioners are going through the civil courts.
It is because of one of those court cases I learned a horrifying fact too little testosterone in teen boys causes a 10 point drop in IQ! A 15 year old boy sued his doctor for prescribing him hormone blockers and his IQ dropped from 95 to 85. With the woke mob crying nothing will go wrong, we have to cling to these cases and hold them up as proof there is something wrong.
the statute of limitations is a year for what? surgery? hormones?
@@RakuRadio why do the insurance companies feel confident in hormone treatments when these are typically prescribed off label.
There is a lawsuit about self-id in sport in Connecticut, brought by female athletes who lost their senior year to boys who self identified as female after racing as boys their whole life. It’s somewhat stalled but it so clearly a problem (see Olympic issues that are coming now). The damage to children is even more insidious- and life long- I believe these lawsuits will be coming. In droves. It’s just too new and untested, the issues are now coming to light.
I've come to realize something. My 2 year old acts like she has ADHD, I truly believe she does because of the signs, afterall I myself have ADHD. My wife says you can't tell when they're that young, you have to give children more time before they can be diagnosed. This situation where I analyze my child and attribute something to her is the same as parents who have 4 year olds and claim their child is gay or t. Your child may actually be gay or t, but they need time to grow, it could be a phase where they're exploring different things, same as my child who may have ADHD but she needs time to grow.
How could a four-year-old be gay, though? All kids are asexual and aromantic until they hit adolescence. I mean, it'd be really weird if kids were attracted to each other, whether it was a phase or not.
@@isitsweet9567 that’s the whole point, that kids can’t have a sexual orientation because they are asexual.
@@isitsweet9567 I read an interesting piece from an author, she says girls are often attracted to boys before boys are attracted to girls. But often girls have to wait for boys to catch up. So girls may develop attraction to their female friends because they’re female friends can return the feelings/attention. But that phase doesn’t last long because eventually the boys do catch up and are interested in them. It’s absurd to believe we know their sexual orientation the first time they experience it, because it’s not defined yet, it’s still developing. It’s also absurd to assume only children know themselves because children don’t know themselves. They’re still learning who they are. How does a girl know she’s lesbian if she’s never been on a date or kissed a boy? But that’s where we are now because the adults have decided to interfere with the normal development of children.
@@FJB2020LGB Asexual is a sexual orientation. Also, the second argument that it might just be a phase due to age could be wrong in a lot of cases. Young females who have “crushes” on older males AND older females don’t apply. Of course, though, there might be some cases where people transition out of their chosen sexual orientation. That doesn’t mean it’s because they were too immature or pubescent to know. You can’t necessarily blame everything on age. Especially for older people who transition in or out of a sexual orientation.
@@animosity911 if you know anything about children, you know nothing is cemented, especially before and during puberty. The idea we know the sexual orientation of a child, or that a child knows their own sexual orientation, is absurd. It’s something that takes time and years of discovery. So many kids are labeled as gay or lesbian or t when the child has never been on a date or kissed anyone. Adults need to stop interfering and let children grow and develop naturally.
Kids consenting should be the last thing the world needs.
34:00 I really have the utmost respect for this guy. The fact that he acknowledges taking the identity of woman, and using it like a costume, when there are real, living breathing women who are born into this life, who didn't chose it, and who just are female. I hope he's doing well.
Absolutely!
He is a truly beautiful man, and an important voice which we would be wise to listen to, regarding why there is not wider acceptance of men who are not interested in stereotypical representations of manhood, yet are still very much men.
We need to have intelligent public debate about this subject. The radical trans activists try to prevent any reasonable discussion .
Yes, they do. I’ve noticed it is because they actually have no reasonable talking points to defend their position…they just repeat the part lines verbatim
How many kids get potentially dangerous echo chamber advice. Repeatedly bombarded by one side of the argument. What’s wrong with just letting nature take its course?
@37:16 interviewee states that puberty blockers are "completely reversible" and then immediately contradicts herself by stating that "there may be some potential for loss of fertility" so fertility protection measures may be appropriate.
For viewers who are basically clueless about these issues it would have been a good idea to clearly label which of the "experts" were blatantly lying.
I seriously hope that this trans craze will be over in ten years. It's doing so much damage.
Thank you for making this outstanding film. The tone, the interviews, all of it was sensitively and honestly presented. I'm happy to share your important work.
It all boils down to profit.
It boils down deeper than that. Money lubes Satan's bulldozer, but the aims are far more sinister.
We have found no adverse side effects in our puberty blocker studies here at Johnson & Johnson talcum powder division

@@AisforawsomeStudios , Interestingly enough, the film amplifies the voices of an incredibly diverse group of people with a wide range of political and ideological persuasions. Colin Wright is an evolutionary biologist with a public track record of debating Christian conservatives. Gary Powell is a well known gay rights activist from the UK. Natasha Chart is a radical feminist who’s spent her entire career on the left side of the political divide. To characterize the voices of the detransitioners in this film as “right wing” or “fascist” is incredibly lacking in intellectual honesty. It’s a thinly veiled attempt to shut down important discourse. It won’t prove effective here. It’s also well worth noting that true fascism seeks to silence dissent, which is what comments like yours seem to be doing.
Best of luck!
@@undercoverbackup9134 , The point is that true fascists aren't really in the habit of amplifying the voices of ideological opponents, and yet, for some mysterious reason in this documentary, a broad spectrum of perspectives are included.
It is clear that you have already made up your mind to try to discount and discard this film, and that's certainly your prerogative. In the meantime, it represents a lot of people who think differently than you do, including subject matter experts and members of the trans community who have earned the right to their opinions.
We don't have the time or bandwidth to continue debating with you. If you don't appreciate the film, that's fine. We expect some opposition, but any pushback we receive is a small price to pay for the countless people who are helped by this important film. We hope you have a good night.

Thank you SO much for this. Shared widely.
Such a Eye-opening documentary! I totally did not expect to see such high quality documentary on RUclips! I truly appreciated that it allows equal amount of voices of both sides ( i.e. those who support and those who reprimand such a movement ) , it does help viewers to identify the arguments behind this deeply ramified trend. People of both sides definitely must check this thoroughly created gem!
It’s horrendous that people pressured people into denying biological reality.
Not just to deny it, but to claim that human self-identity is *above* it.
The whole thing is just sad. So glad this documentary was produced.
The placebo effect is powerful. So is the sunk cost fallacy. Many people insist transition helped them because they want to believe it did. It's painful to admit you shouldn't have bothered.
Children shouldn't be driving the bus.
that was very powerful and informative. I agree with what the journalist suggested about how there's just sex and we are whatever we are--it's society that breaks down items/actions/clothing into 'masculine' and 'feminine'. We need to focus more on why our children get it into their heads that "because they play with [this] toy they are/aren't male/female." If a child like a truck or a doll, the only thing is means is that 'my child likes a truck/doll.' Society is the one that says, 'oh, trucks are masculine.' Well, a different culture may say, 'trucks are feminine.' so why are we going to let society tell us what we are? We should be teaching our children that they can wear and play with whatever they want and it doesn't make them any less or more a man or a woman. You're a woman/man because of your sex and that's all. If we really want to push back on gender norms, stop letting them tell us that who we are. Amazing documentary. I hope many people see this.
Personally, I don't believe anybody is actually "trans".
Thank you for making this film
This is fantastic, so well done. We need to spread this across the internet, send it to our politicians.
Then it's a good thing in countries with elections we can quietly pay attention to who supports this and fire them when they are up for re-election. They can support the woke mob and silence us, but we still vote like everyone. Politicians live off of public's apathy and desire to bitch rather than take action.
Conversion therapy practices? No thanks.
@@wcoasts Is it conversion therapy to explore a young person's distress and the reason for it? I know people traumatized and took on a trans ID and they needed help for their trauma and not to transition, also those that are gay and had internal homophobia, those that don't fit and are looking for a place to fit in somewhere. Working with a neutral therapist that is interested in your long term mental health which is their ACTUAL job and not a blanket affirmation of an "identity" or a "gender therapist". Get real.
@@aliciaochs Are you seriously going to start about internalized homophobia on a video advertising the practices of the IFTCC, a homophobic conversion therapy group, which is part of Quentin van Meter's profession?
@@aliciaochs I agree with you here, but Quentin van Meter is a questionable subject matter expert -- he's not neutral. He has advocated for homosexual conversion therapy.

Great metaphor man.
Ofcourse the parents are terrified if children get behind the wheel
Makes me so sick to see these doctors playing God and experimenting with children.
So important to spread more awareness on these issues. We must demand good ethical practices. Children need to be protected at all cost
Ethical practice stops when you post video's like these with speakers from the Heritage Foundation and staff members of the IFTCC.

Well done everyone involved. Thank you for speaking out. Thank you directors for making it happen
Thank you for making this informative and eye-opening documentary. It should be shown to all doctors, teachers, therapists, legislators, and parents. The adults in this country are failing children and adolescents.
how are they failing us. As a person who is trans, how is me being myself and making myself feel more comfortable in the body i have harmful. i’m not harming anyone by being myself and although i haven’t gone through and medical procedures me being assigned female at birth but truly being non-binary doesn’t change you. my generation is more accepting to people who want to be themselves and i don’t get why that’s so hard for so many people to understand.
@@macev1789 When being yourself means parroting the jargon ("assigned at birth") and sticking a meaningless label on yourself . . . I'm glad my generation was more accepting of natural differences than the "trans" generation of today.
@@macev1789 I agree these decisions you make for yourself harm no one. But do you think it is ok for middle aged trans-identified males (incl those who do not undergo any external changes) to share locker room/personal space with teenage (or younger) girls? Do you see any potential problems with this?
@@macev1789 You have yet to learn so much about life. For a start, not 'all people of your generation' agree with you. Being yourself is fine, imposing diktats on those who disagree is not fine - it is absolutely harmful.
@@sheckum i don’t see something wrong with this. if people genuinely want to be who they are then why stop them. if you immediately assume the worst then i’d be more worried about you. if some wants to transition to female let them. i doubt the first thing they going to do is try and harm others.
Michelle Forcier… one of the greatest threats to children who are or think they are transgender & their families. I listen to her talk & can’t fathom anyone takes her seriously. But they do! Which makes her that much more dangerous. These adults who aren’t helping these children mentally & emotionally first are destructive to these kids lives. Praying God will open others eyes to these evils & not allow them to continue this abuse on anymore children.

My understanding, Transgender is a movement, not a science at all.

@@pigplayzmc like maybe they're independent and can move out at 10! Driving, alcohol, tattoos, sex....
Plenty on the list. That's why children are considered minors with parents having responsibility.
Also, definitely agree with the guy at the end. This may have started for various reasons in individuals, but it got so big and out of control because of money. So it will end with money as well.

8:57 The therapist admits to immediately validating the dysphoria, and by her own admission her assessment is inherently biased, unprofessional and experimental. She uses no objective tool or measure in an evaluation, and if you listen, she um and ahs through this explanation of her practice, which I'm certain is not a "free" service! This abandonment of objective measures and self serving pseudo-scientific approach, is a problem across the board in mental health. Who holds these practitioners accountable for a lack of professionalism, and how do the patients know what is or isn't a reliable assessment, or an evidence based intervention? Without gaurdrails what's to stop a "professional" from exploiting a vulnerable child with suggestion and gaslighting.
"The way I would treat a patient with gender dysphoria is, is very unique to that patient. I think the, the primary goal that I have, when I'm first evaluating, a child who's coming in with gender dysphoria, is um, just getting a sense of how they're feeling, validating that feeling, um, and then kind of exploring where that might be coming from, whether or not there's any underlying sigh* issue or trauma or circumstance that may contribute, um, and then to have a really, a really um, (mouth shrug) sincere conversation with them and the family, SIGH*, about how we might want to move forward, sigh*, from there".
Screwing her lips sideways in a disclaimer expression, shoulders drooped, sighing, um, ah, rapid blinks. Why all the paraverbal dramatics around what should be high quality assessment tool that reduces the risk of observer bias? Wouldn't she want a QUALITY tool that ensures she isn't approving an intervention that involves the arrestment of sexual maturation, incredible risks to their physical health, and not to mention psychosocial development. Wouldn't she want a reliable method of ensuring she safeguards against sterilization eugenics?
I'm guessing the cagey reply and paraverbal dramatics are because she knows she's using an assessment method that lacks reliability and is rife with her own bias. She learned of these concepts in her own training, even if her industry is blatantly ethically corrupted. She has a legal obligation to report patient abuse as well, and she knows she's complicit in facilitating it.
She knows it's malfeasance.
Quite right. She hates doing duty of care and due diligence and just wants to rubber stamp affirmation to every child in her 'care'.
If we lived in better world, she’d have criminal charges.
