Pediatricians prove that the idea of converting from one sex to the other is not based on any science. They have proven that biology does not change, it is only the mental self-image which is at stake, and usually temporarily. Up to 98% of gender identity conflicts resolve over time. Biden, however, wants men with the ‘Gender Identity Conflict’ mental condition to compete in sports with natural biological women as if they were real women. Where transgenders seek moral equality, Biden takes it one step further and introduces physical equality. Those dudes are women alright, can’t see the difference, so he claims. Now, what on earth gave him that idea? Collision alert!
Last October, in his efforts to win the presidential elections, he said:
“The idea that an 8-year-old child decides, you know, ‘I want to be transgender, that’s what I think I’d like to be, it’d make my life a lot easier’—there should be no discrimination”.
What does an 8-year-old know about easy living in the future? Seriously? With his “Equality Act”, Biden is not only on a collision course with US Catholic Bishops but also with the dozens of moderate emancipation activists. After all, not everybody agrees with the process of radicalization. Moderates are seeing themselves being stifled and criminalized across the globe for failing to cave in. The American College of Pediatricians steps in to put ideology aside and call sober science to the rescue. Let’s have a look.
Biden calls the ‘Equality Act’ long overdue. Meaning “we should have rammed it down their throats long ago”. If they don’t swallow, they do time. And now that he has the power to do some awesome ramming as the new president, he also intends to “heal the nation”, so he says, to kiss it better. But as a president, first things first: you start with ramming, then you see if you have time left to do some good old healing.
With this new US administration, the curtain falls for freedom of thought on matters of life and love, even within the Left. A new chain gang of prison inmates is being marched on the courtyard of the Correctional Facility as the Australian state of Victoria follows the American leaders in imposing harsh ten-year jail sentences for professional dissidence.
With doctors and nurses being locked up, fined into bankrupcy, and barred from their profession for life, the radicals can now dream their wildest dreams.
Biden introduces a new era for social experiments as the US far-Leftist Cancel Culture continues to erode all forms of professional checks and balances in client care. On the Internet, scientific facts are systematically deleted and the English dictionary is rewritten. A penis can very well mean you are a woman, listen up.
Biden’s spindoctors wrote,
“The Equality Act provides long overdue federal civil rights protections on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, locking in critical safeguards in our housing, education, public services, and lending systems — and codifying the courage and resilience of the LGBTQ+ movement into enduring law.”
The only thing the radicals were resilient in, was providing him with the cash and door-to-door activism of volunteers to secure his election. In November 2020, he won by the slightest of margins and could not have done so if the radical-gay lobbygroups had chosen not to endorse him.
The political lobbygroup with the misleading name ‘Human Rights Campaign’ (HRC) writes,
“HRC is ramping up its get-out-the-vote efforts, deploying at least 45 full-time staff across seven target states — Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin — and 20 more staff members in a second tier of states.
HRC and our more than three million members and supporters will work day and night to ensure he is the next president of the United States,” HRC-president Alphonso David said.
They gave Biden the millions of dollars he needed and recruited the voters; but it went at a price. The spokesman for the HRC (“Sarah” MacBride) was to become part of the official White House administration, as were three other victims of Gender Identity Conflict besides McBride.
Radical-gay activist and former election opponent mayor Butigieg was also to be taken on board with any old job. Biden gives him Transport. At Delta Airlines, Butigieg enjoys Medallion Status as a frequent flyer. We read,
“Medallion Members are our most loyal customers — and we want you to be one — so we reward that commitment every step of the way with benefits not available to other travelers. With Medallion Status, you have opportunities to fly more comfortably, move to the front of the line, enjoy waived fees, and other elite benefits that only Delta offers.”
Yep, and you also get to become Secretary of Transport. If you are gay enough, of course. It’s part of the election deal. Besides taking the occasional taxi to the airport and moving to the front of the line, Butigieg knows nothing about Transport.
Over the past two months, advocates have urged Biden to keep his end of the deal and nominate LGBTQ leaders, including radical-activist Levine to key positions in the administration. Levine says he is a real woman now, despite his big hands, deep sound of voice, and overwhelming presence. How could any young female athlete compete with the likes of him? It is as if you are reading Little Red Riding Hood.
“Grandma, what big ears you have!”
Wolf: “All the better to hear you with.”
“Grandma, what big muscles and bones you have!”
Wolf: “All the better to compete you with.”
Radical-transgender activism has been hijacking the emancipation movement since 2010 and is now homing in on the White House itself.
Biden does not have the expertise to contradict the transgender coup and the press releases that his staff produces, are full of activist rhetoric. In many states, it is no longer even necessary to have had hormones or surgical treatment, it is sufficient to say that one is “non-binary” to be enrolled as transgender and to compete in sports as a member of the opposite sex.
The issue is crucial due to the fact that much money is involved for getting an athletic scholarship. Nationwide, it amounts to $4.2 billion to be exact, and it all goes to transgenders when they manage to win the competitions. We read,
“How to Get Athletic Scholarship? It is a question many aspiring high school athletes are asking. The truth of the matter is that the competition for college athletic scholarships offers is fierce. In fact, the competition can be so fierce, many high school athletes find themselves in jeopardy of being cut from their scholarship offers or even worse, lose their athletic scholarship.”

The American College of Pediatricians have published a scientific paper: ‘Sex is a Biological Trait of Medical Significance’,
“In the midst of society’s questioning of the gender binary, the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds) is concerned that the field of medicine risks denying the reality of biological sex.
Sex is a dimorphic, innate trait defined in relation to an organism’s biological role in reproduction. In humans, primary sex determination occurs at fertilization and is directed by a complement of sex determining genes on the X and Y chromosomes. This genetic signature is present in every nucleated somatic cell and is not altered by drugs or surgical interventions.
Sex differences arise from at least four different genetic mechanisms, in addition to the actions of sex hormones and environmental influences. Consideration of these innate differences is critical to the practice of good medicine and to the development of sound public policy for children and adults alike.”
They state how we are witnessing how politically correct doctors have now even come to declare that it would be “unscientific” to use chromosomes, hormones, reproductive organs, genitalia and secondary sex characteristics to override gender identity.
Who says you are male?
They write that no one can know whether individuals are male or female unless the individual in question makes it known. Accordingly, pediatricians are ever more being cautioned against “assigning a sex” to newborns for fear that this could conflict with the infants’ self-declared gender identity later in childhood.
The truth is, however, that the physical and biological facts are not a state of mind that one can “identify” into (or out of) at will. Pediatricians do not “assign” an infant’s sex; they merely announce it, based upon the physical reality of the infant’s body before them.
On April 12, 1633, Galileo was ordered to turn himself in to the Holy Office in Rome to begin trial for holding the belief that the Earth revolves around the sun, which was deemed heretical by the Catholic Church at the time. Standard practice demanded that the accused be imprisoned and secluded during the trial.
As of 2021, so-called ‘conversion therapists’ find themselves imprisoned for up to ten years in Victoria, Australia, for their denying the new realities of the radical-gay mob and for their maintaining that the “transgender revolution” is a software issue only.
The growing radical gay-affiliated movement to deny the physical reality of sexual dimorphism leads to a dangerous dismissal of science and medical ethics. This social coercion will cause severe harm to individuals and society at large if embraced.
The mental condition of Gender Identity Conflict rests largely upon a psychological discomfort with one’s biological sex, and is neither innate nor immutable. It does not in any way determine biological sex.
The inappropriate sense of gender has been proven to disappear in up to 98% of the cases as long as it is not affirmed or “celebrated”. It is quite worrying that activists and politically correct doctors alike, always fail to mention these statistics. They succeed in telling “the truth”, but not “the whole truth”, let stand “nothing but the truth”.
Change? What change?
Administering sex hormones and other drugs can alter appearance and bodily functioning to varying degrees, but these chemicals do not change biological sex. No amount of medical intervention can “transition” any person from one sex to the other. The term itself is fake news. You are not going anywhere, certainly not in ten years time after the initial drug party and the honymoon after surgery fade away, as the side effects ultimately take their lethal toll.
On the gay-affiliated website NYDailyNews, we read:
More than half of transgender, nonbinary youth in U.S. ‘seriously considered’ suicide in past 12 months: study.
At age 35, prepare to die, because that is the average age of death due to incessant suicide attempts and the ultimate side-effects of the drugs being administered, namely bloodclots, cancer, drug-induced depression and suicidality, osteoporosis, fractures, and the drug-induced diabetes syndrome.
We see activist colleagues going along with the delusion and adding to the agonizing conflict in the individual’s mind. After all, doubt is always on the lure. How else can up to 98% get over it if healthy doubt was not present? And that doubt comes from the working of the genes, not from the external world.
How about Intersex?
Intersex conditions (the I in the term LGBTI) are disorders in which normal sexual differentiation and function are disrupted. Some argue that the intersex condition demonstrates the existence of more than two sexes. However, this condition does not represent additional reproductive organs, gonads or gametes. Therefore, by definition, the intersex condition does not constitute additional sexes.
Human sex is a binary, not a spectrum. In reality, the intersex condition is a rare developmental disorder affecting 0.02% of the population in which either genitalia are ambiguous in appearance, or an individual’s sexual appearance fails to match what would be expected given the person’s sex chromosomes. Reflecting the disordered nature of this condition, all forms of the intersex condition are associated with impaired fertility.
Conclusion
Sex is defined according to the specific reproductive role of a member of a huge class of species in nature, where a member is structurally organized to produce the egg or to contribute the sperm.
Among humans, sex is a dimorphic, innate and immutable trait established at fertilization by sex determining genes located on the X and Y chromosomes. This sexual dimorphism is genetically programmed and is present in every cell of the body; sex does not and cannot change. The presence of X and Y chromosomes correlates with a person’s definitive sex phenotype in 99.98% of all people. The 0.02% of people with disorders of sex development (DSD), more commonly referred to as intersex conditions, represent males and females with inborn disorders affecting the external genitalia and/or reproductive organs among other systems.
Public policy
Genetics is the reason why a male who self-identifies as female remains male, and explains why giving hormones like estrogen to a male does not transform him into a female. Drugs do not alter his genetics; he remains male in every cell of his body. For females, it is the other way around. There is no scientific justification for allowing, let alone mandating, males access to female-specific social spaces such as restrooms, homeless shelters, prisons and the like.
The individual has merely a mental conflict between two antagonistic identities within the same person, and the confused state of mind has been demonstrated to heal in 98% of the cases, as is mentioned in the psychiatric DSM-5 manual itself, as long as the normal hardware-based genetic identity is affirmed and respected, and not the flimsy software-induced array of doubts and preoccupations about gender.
Based on sound science, all males with GID should be barred from competing against females because their body is still very male in so many ways despite huge quantities of female hormones. Plastic surgery and the injections of inappropriate levels of hormones do not create a level playing field in sports.
To be continued.
