COUNTERING LIES OF THE ELITE II

“You need to have a really, really good evidence base in place if you’re going straight to an invasive treatment that is going to cause permanent changes to your body,” argued ex-transgender forum participant Michelle Alleva, who said that the need for such evidence is now disregarded in the name of a cultural agenda.

Alleva contends that pro-transition studies often suffer from failure to follow-up with patients over  long-enough period of time, and that transition regret is difficult to track because of the number of regretful patients who do not follow-up with their doctors. She also argues that “informed consent” for transition treatments cannot be satisfied without a thorough mental evaluation of a patient, not to mention the unknown variables of the therapies themselves.

“Some of us have lost trust in healthcare professionals as a result of our experience,” Alleva lamented.

A range of scientific literature indicates that reinforcing gender confusion often fails to prevent significant emotional harm up to and including attempted suicide (with or without surgery), because fixating on “gender affirmation” tends to distract from exploring other issues that may be the actual root of a patient’s mental or emotional unrest.

On top of those issues, experts outside the medical establishment warn that surgically or chemically reinforcing gender confusion imposes irreversible harm on children such as infertility, impairment of adult sex function, and reduced life expectancy, as well as the psychological toll of being “locked into” physical alterations regardless of whether they change their minds when they mature. Studies indicate that more than 80% of children experiencing gender dysphoria outgrow it on their own by late adolescence, unless their confusion is reinforced by adults.
