"You need tissue, genital tissue, to create that vagina. And if we are taking an 11-year-old boy, who does not have a lot of genital tissue and blocking puberty right there, we’re preventing the growth of the vagina for down the road."
On calcium deficiency:
"The puberty blockers slow that calcium accrual back into the bones quite a bit, back to the prepubertal level."
"This is a concern that not everybody is getting their piggy bank completely filled up with calcium.”
On the unknown impact of puberty suppression on brain development:
“They seem to do reasonably the same as their friends but we’re not looking at their IQ and their learning ability and lots of other things.”
On Puberty Blockers being more invasive than portrayed in media:
“Oh puberty blockers are just reversible and it’s a very noninvasive treatment,’ I would say it’s more invasive than often times the media makes it out to be or other people.”
🧵If you’re a pastor, ministry leader, or Christian who doesn’t like engaging on “controversial” issues, I have some great news about transgender ideology.
For Bible believing Christians, it’s completely uncontroversial to openly and ardently oppose transgenderism!
The Biblical basis is very clear and simple:
Genesis 1:27:
“So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.”
It’s open and shut: There are two sexes.
Many church leaders and Christians are hesitant to speak the truth about transgenderism because of the fear of man.
Let us remember Matthew 5:11:
“Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.”
🧵Last week, the @DailyCaller News Foundation published an investigative report on hours of behind-the-scenes recordings from WPATH, an influential transgender medical organizations.
“Basically, not only are the medications off-label, the whole field’s off-label."

This is a thread of some of the most shocking things we found in the behind-the-scenes recordings reveal what top gender doctors really think about controversial sex change procedures.
“So, the patients who have schizophrenia are doing well on their meds. So, they will sometimes moderate their dose a little bit just to keep the voices down or whatever the bad symptom is.”
Through a public record request, the DCNF obtained a link to a folder containing nearly 30 hours of recordings from WPATH’s September 2022 closed-door summit.
Here is a sampling of what we learned:
1. Video Shows Prominent Doctors Acknowledging, And Even Challenging, The Experimental Nature Of Sex Change Drugs
“Complications can be pretty bad for vaginoplasty and the most-dreaded complication is to perforate the rectum while you are dissecting the vaginal cavity,” Dr. Alex Laungani."
On Surgeon Training:
"We’ve seen a growing number of programs throughout the world of gender affirmation, probably with a lack of training and not proper training, for now,” said Laungani. “And so, you know, better ca–any care was better, probably, than no care."
🧵The idea that attempting to change your sex is ‘medically necessary’ is a critical lie of transgender ideology.
All sex reassignments procedures are cosmetic.
Your sex is encoded in your DNA and unchangeable. There is no medical necessity in trying to change this.
The classification of sex reassignments procedures as cosmetic vs. ‘medically necessary’ is important.
It impacts both the level of tolerated, acceptable risk associated with these procedures and the possibility of insurance coverage.
It’s ethical to tolerate a higher level of risk for procedures that are truly life saving, like neurosurgery for a brain bleed or bypass surgery for someone having a heart attack.
It would be unethical to tolerate the same high risks for a cosmetic procedure like a nose job.
