The Transgender Follies—More Madness

Growing up in the 1950s, I remember distinctly that all of my high school classmates were obsessed with figuring out who they really were, males or females. Every conversation, the special clubs we formed to talk about this issue, the heated arguments we had with our parents who didn’t “get” that the children they thought were boys or girls were not at all what those dinosaurs imagined sex and gender to be, and the total lack of understanding we got from the powers-that-be, including teachers, counselors, coaches, doctors. It was truly a horrible time to be a girl or boy

There are very few things growing up that are certain. We didn't know what our future would be, we didn't know what our talents were, we didn't understand the mysteries of life, or religion, or sex, or friendship, or much of anything. What we did know for absolute certain was whether we were a boy or girl. It was enough to keep us on a semi-even keel while we figured out those other things. Now the monsters have taken even that away. The purpose can only be destruction, as that is the only result.

This is the best and most thorough and useful article I've ever read on this subject. Any intelligent person with an open mind will get a lot of insight from it. Maybe even some leftists.

But there’s gold in them thar hills! The Mengele wing of the medical profession is piling in money that willingly paid by confused and self-absorbed customers. The entertainment industry, having made money off of maudlin and juvenile scripts for years, has helped engineer a new group to “explore” “explain” and exploit. The moribund academic arts world, inundated with Pooh bears of little brain but a desire to become forever-adolescents with PhD’s, has plowed new fields of “study” by reordering scientific facts and accentuating trivia for tuition and grant money ….tuition and grant money that are doled out by government functionaries whose bread and butter rely on buying votes. How to stop it? Is refusing to pay taxes in protest too radical?

It is a sad fact of life that the more you tell people, especially young people, that they can't or shouldn't do something the more determined some become to do it. (See Adam and Eve) That could be part of the explanation for the skyrocketing numbers of so-called "trans" youth. The forbidden always becomes attractive to the impressionable. The falling pebble becomes a landslide. It can be stopped if you can get the ones with a vested interest out of the way. Good luck with that.

When are we going to start looking at the people who are performing these surgeries? My guess is that they are very sick individuals. What person in their right mind mutilates children? Ask yourself that hard question. I cannot see a justification for this kind of perverted behavior by people who are supposed to be responsible for the health and welfare of our young. This is a group of people who have gone way off the rails of acceptable human behavior and that is where we need to start examining their motives and behaviors.

Yes Number 5 and that was when girls wore skirts to school. Sex wasn't a question of what sex were you, it was a question of trying to get some. Cars ,motorcycles, which bar would sell beer to youthful patrons.

I grew up in the 50s and we had no problem with who we were out here in the boonies. I went on to become a chemist at a time when there were very few women in that field. No one ever tried to discourage me or insulted me because they all knew I was smart and aware of what I was doing.

I went through high school in the 50s and I don't know of anyone who obsessed over who they were. We all knew times were hard and didn't have a nickel for a coke with our sack lunch. We knew we were boys and we also knew that girls were mysterious, smelled good, and always seemed to have a little money in their purses. When we were in elementary school we talked about boys turning into girls if they could kiss their elbows. Oh man, were we confused when couldn't do it. Well, that was that, so we moved on to junior high school and noticed girls were different. You want to talk about confusion - those feelings and dreams we began to have centered on girls, girls, girls. From that point on the confusion was how to approach those most wonderful creatures and what would we do if they ignored us. There were a few boys, very few in our high school, who were limp wristed and that was their thing so we moved on and so did they. Today it seems the school system has produced a few more of those limp wristed boys who joined with the do-gooders of their ilk and are determined to destroy the joy of growing up, confusion and all.

I hadn't heard about a correlation between trans-genderism and autism before. However, it is interesting that the number of people who purportedly have autism has mushroomed in the late decade or so, too. (They fall somewhere on the Autism Spectrum, that is. Heck, I think I qualify for the high end.) How 'bout that.

Excellent article. When I was a young kid I wanted to drive a garbage truck when I grew up. Fortunately, I was given the opportunity by my parents to grow up. Author lands on a key point when she says this is politically driven from the top. If the administration in charge says, "Thou shalt...or thou shall no longer receive federal funding" - that's a powerful incentive for weak-kneed education, hospital, and other industry administrators to bow to the bidding. You notice they never have any response. They always just sit and say nothing until the level-headed parent finishes his/her say or is hauled away by the rent-a-cop. As Sarah Huckabee so eloquently put it, it's now normal versus crazy - returning normal to the White House in 2024 can make most of this go away.

The first paragraphs of this article about the 1950s and 1970s left me what alternate universe the author had been living in. Then I got to the “reality check” section where it stated that the receding paragraph s were pure fiction. In those years less than 1% of boys and girls questioned their sex. Most we’re trying to figure out how they fit into the world as a boy or girl. The vast majority figured it out without any need for a sex change procedure. It has only been since schools and the media have been pushing the idea as early as kindergarten. I am quite sure that if the schools and the media had pushed the idea that kids were actually puppy dogs and bunny rabbits as hard as transgenderism, that a significant number would come to believe that they were puppies or rabbits. If you tell people a lie often enough you will get some people to believe it is the truth. Just look at the people who have been falsely told they are victims that believe this to be true.

While Washington told Americans to wear blue and yellow and pledge their allegiance to the Ukraine flag in the name of freedom, a real threat rose to America’s south. Red China is becoming the most influential nation to South America as it tethers South American countries to its growing economy. The U.S. Naval Institute reported on March 8, “Recent Chinese actions, like financing a $3 billion container port, establishing a space monitoring station near the Straits of Magellan and buying lithium mining operations in three South American nations, pose increasing risks to U.S. security, senior military commanders said Wednesday.

The FBI had at least four open criminal investigations into Hillary and Bill Clinton that were suddenly dropped in the months before the 2016 presidential election, special counsel John Durham’s recently released report shows. The bombshell report released by Durham — which concluded that the bureau’s probe into former President Donald Trump’s alleged collusion with Russia was “seriously flawed” — also shed light on the quashed probes. The feds had been looking into claims that foreign countries and other individuals were trying to influence the Clintons through donations to their namesake non-profit and Hillary’s presidential campaign.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has now gone on record saying that he is open to defying SCOTUS if they rule against the abortion pill. Democrats think they can get away with defying SCOTUS if it is seen as illegitimate. Do you see the endgame now? New Jersey Gov.

Republican Gov. Greg Gianforte signed a measure Wednesday banning TikTok in Montana, making it the first state in the United States to completely ban the social media app amid skepticism from lawmakers. Montana's ban is the most restrictive measure on TikTok, which is owned by a Chinese tech company, in the United States. It is scheduled to take effect on Jan. 1, 2024, and is expected to be challenged in court. "Today, Montana takes the most decisive action of any state to protect Montanans' private data and sensitive personal information from being harvested by the Chinese Communist Party," Gianforte said in a statement.

While the Durham Report was not criminal, one woman is responsible for this "crime." Her name is Hillary Clinton and we know her story. I agree with Victoria Taft: Durham wrote the “Clinton Plan” was conceived to distract from her very real and very illegal destruction of evidence -- her emails -- which were under a preservation order. “According to the declassified Clinton Plan intelligence, on July 26, 2016, Clinton allegedly approved a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to tie Trump to Russia as a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.”

You may remember how, in 2018, a Starbucks in Philadelphia refused to let two black businessmen use a restroom and ended up calling the police on them. It turned out that a black woman and a white woman witnessed the event. They became allies in the DEI business but, according to the L.A.

My friend sent me a terrifying video clip showing kids coming home from school last Friday, May 12, 2023. The children waiting at a bus stop near the Israeli town of Beit Shemesh heard the “Color Red” sirens and knew they had to take cover. Then a large bus stopped and disgorged even more children. About ninety percent moved into and around the bus shelter, hoping it would be strong enough to protect them, but this shelter was open on the street side, meaning the force of any explosion there would have been multiplied many times, and the children would have been shredded.

Another day, another Deep State leak. The National Archives is claiming it has evidence that may undercut Trump’s claims that the presidential records he took to Mar-a-Lago were automatically declassified, according to a leak to CNN. Trump says the documents were declassified as soon as he took them to Mar-a-Lago . Acting Archivist Debra Steidel Wall however, claims there is evidence Trump and his advisors knew of a so-called declassification process. Steidel Wall sent Trump a letter informing him the National Archives are going to give Special Counsel Jack Smith 16 records which may prove the documents were not automatically declassified. And the witch hunt continues.

Nations are built upon classical values — perseverance, self-reliance, and honor. A great nation is one whose values have made it unusually prosperous. In its latter days, the nation becomes hollowed out and burdened with a costly, top-heavy government. The middle class is expected to provide generosity to the masses.
