THREAD. The American Academy of Pediatrics is the largest association of pediatricians in the country. It is also ideologically captured. An activist group masquerading as a medical organization. Do a little digging and this fact becomes clear.
On the AAP website you can find their policy statement on “Ensuring Comprehensive Care and Support for Transgender and Gender-Diverse Children and Adolescents.” The whole thing reads like a trans activism manifesto, not a medical guide.
In fact the statement cites something called “The Gender Book” as an objective resource for “core terms and concepts.” But the Gender Book is an activist pamphlet, not an objective resource. We know this because its authors say so.
In 2014, the authors of the Gender Book performed a (really terrible) song thanking their donors for enabling them to “do gender activism.” Four years later the AAP incorporated this gender activism into their “comprehensive care” guide.
A few years later the AAP published its own gender book promoting radical gender theory to kids. The author of the book appeared on an AAP podcast and claimed that it’s impossible to know a child’s gender in the womb.
Again: the AAP is a radical activist group. That’s why they shut down and silence their own members who criticize them for pushing drugs and surgery on kids.
Your child’s pediatrician might be good. But even the good ones are hostage to this madness. It has kidnapped the entire medical field. And so far we’ve only scratched the surface.
