🧵How Gender Clinics Infiltrate Schools 🧵

This week I shared training videos created by the CHOP Gender and Sexuality Development Clinic. Let’s learn more about its co-founder, Nadia Dowshen, and the clinics vision for education and schools.

12/6/18: Nadia spoke at an NIH Women's Health Seminar Series. She explains that transgender patients must have a medical diagnosis to receive treatment. The diagnosis used is Gender Dysphoria. It appears transitioning a child is assumed as the gold standard of care for this dx.

Puberty Blockers.

Starting a young child on puberty blockers is beneficial because, “it can delay irreversible secondary sex characteristics,” and can help a patient avoid top surgery.

These hormone treatments are expensive and can cost up to $40,000 a year.

Nadia states that impacting schools is a huge part CHOP’s Gender Clinic’s mission. They currently provide trainings for educators and schools, helping them to adopt and implement this ideology.

The mission to infiltrate schools was clearly stated in a 2016 paper Nadia authored. “Every school district should develop and incorporate LGBT-inclusive curriculum.” Here is an RTK email where a staff member of the gender clinic was “begging” to get trainings into schools.

“We can teach pronouns to our Kindergartners”

Let’s see some clips from one of the educational trainings offered by the CHOP Gender clinic.

The first is about teaching elementary kids pronouns.

Another feature of the trading is teaching educators how eliminate gender from their communication and classroom.

“There is no scientific reason why we ask students to line up ‘boys’ and ‘girls.’

“Gender Identity is considered confidential and private information.”

“When we get this information we keep it private from other students, other staff members, and from parents.”

Please note, this training was in conjunction with the @PAHumanServices. Elections matter.

If all treatment is based on a dx of Gender Dysphoria, why is transitioning the child seen as the best treatment?

Medicine used to assume parents were their child’s expert. Why are parents who challenge this course of treatment portrayed as adversarial and non-supportive?
