The #JamesYounger reporting could use some nuance. The jury’s verdict is disturbing, but the child isn’t being “chemically castrated”—YET. Nor is a “boy in a dress” the real issue here. If you aren’t already in the Gender War trenches, you may not be aware that:

1. Social transition (what James’ mom & her “affirmative” allies promote) is not the same as simply allowing a child to choose haircuts, clothing, or toys. Social transition = everyone around the child endorses that the child is “really” the opposite sex and/or in the wrong body.

2. With full social transition, everyone is told they MUST use opp-sex pronouns, new name, & avoid mentioning (or validating) the child's bio sex. Some parents have even changed the birth certificate of their very young children.

3. Social transition leads in most cases to medical transition later. Technically, it’s reversible, but how likely is a small child to reverse course when all adults (teachers, doctors, parents) the child relies on for a reality check agree s/he is opposite sex from toddlerhood?

4. The #JamesYounger court filings mention he will be reassessed near puberty & may then go on puberty blockers. Blockers alone do not permanently sterilize (see: kids diagnosed w/precocious puberty and on blockers temporarily were not sterilized), BUT

5. In nearly 100% of reported cases, blockers lead to cross-sex hormones. Cross sex hormones taken immediately after blockers result (in addition to other effects) in permanent sterility. Gender doctors admit this openly—and in some cases, condescendingly.

6. Whatever the fitness of the Younger parents, NONE OF THIS would be happening w/out the pediatric transition industry which has taken hold in the US. It's the gender specialists who allow this, powered by the rocket fuel of extremist activists & a prostrate mainstream media.

7. Whatever the fitness of either parent, question is: Should a court of law force the affirmative model of “care” on a child and/or adults responsible for caring for/educating him? Should a US court of law compel the speech of a parent, teacher or others involved in James’ care?

Norman Spack, who brought puberty blocking to the US, said in 2016 that "no one" changes their mind after beginning medical transition.

Same with Johanna Olson-Kennedy, who runs the busiest pediatric gender clinic in the US:

If you cannot see tweet #5 (which Twitter appears to be censoring), here is a screen grab. The link to the video about sterilizing 12 year olds is at this address (after the https://www), replace "DOT" with a period.
