This RINO is worse than a Democrat. It's because of subhumans like RINOs that ranked choice voting may not be entirely bad. It would be good to be able to rank this RINO last on the list, just below Pence, on a long ballot.
I read an article today that reminded me that transexuality is a very old situation in this country. The medical industry has been doing gender reassignment and gender changes for over 60 yrs in this country without any fanfare or concern. So it is quite interesting how the GOP has decided to make it into an issue today when it never was before. I recall this woman Christine Jorgensen who underwent a sex change and that was all over the media as she was a well known star and came out in public. It was the public's introduction into this possibility. The drugs and surgery involved are considered safe with a long profile history. I think the real question is why the GOP has made this an issue. My take is they have nothing to offer other than distractions from the harm they are doing deep down in the swamp.
More nonsense from Tanya who seems to conveniently avoid the matters of childhood sexual mutilation, chemically- and surgically-induced infertility in children, and grooming of children by perverts who wish to sexually exploit children when she pretends what we are facing today has anything in common with insane adults mutilating themselves.
Look, I try very hard to not get drawn into hostility instead of respectful conversation. But I am tired of your ignorant and prejudicial attacks. If you want to believe all the lies and exaggerated reality promoted for manipulative reasons that is your business, but that is your insanity and I totally reject your willful ignorance. You act like a troll for stupidity refusing to actually research the issue. At the very least you promote hysteria over nothing and need to deal with your inability to think rationally or do any real research.
FYI, gender reassignment has been going on in this country for over 50 yrs without harm and, certainly without extensive use. Medical people tend to be very conservative in performing such treatments working to ensure the psychological state of the people involved is healthy.
It isn't the "issue" today, it's a movement. "It doesn't matter what the press says. It doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. It doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. Republics are founded on one principle above all else: The requirement that we stand up for what we believe in, no matter the odds or consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth and tell the whole world: "No, you move."
“According to an online survey of detransitioners conducted by Dr. Lisa Littman last year, 40% said their gender dysphoria was caused by a mental-health condition and 62% felt medical professionals did not investigate whether trauma was a factor in their transition decisions.”
Adult decisions should come only from experienced Adults who’ll live with the results for the rest of their lives. Parents and these aggressive, financially incentivized medical personnel aren’t the ones getting their genitals mutilated. No reasonable person would expect a Child to be capable of being held to this sensible, ethical standard.
But who said those pushing for kids to undergo permanent hormonal and surgical change are sensible and ethical?
DeSantis had a lot of nice things to say about Asa Hutchinson. Apparently, they have other things in common. RINOS are not worse than democrats because they are democrats and nobody's worse than a democrat. It's up to us to do our homework and not be fooled by them.
This RINO is worse than a demorat, just like said below. He misleads people to vote for him, thinking he is a conservative. Liar... Doing the work of the evil one..
Nothing is worse than a democrat. RINOS are democrats. And nothing is worse than that. They're both cagey, deceptive, steal from conservative Republicans and use their money to support liberal policies against them, engage in behavior against our own country, and lie every time they open their foul mouths.
Government shouldn't interfere with parental rights, period. This applies to ALL issues, not just trans.
Government also should not be trying to mandate political and sexual indoctrinations of minors - which the US federal government is trying to do.
Government also should not be trying to force doctors to give dangerous trans drugs, hormones and operations to minors against their will - which the US federal government is trying to do.
Governments also should not be allowing minors to receive vaccinations and trans procedures without parental knowledge or consent - which the US federal government is trying to do, and which such states as CA are in the process of doing right now.
Adults can do what they like biologically and sexually. Every adult has the right to their own lifestyle choices.
No one cared about transsexuals until trans became a militant political operation aimed at undermining women and targeting highly impressionable children and teens.
Trans and gender identity campaigns are being manufactured for political and financial purposes.
At least Christine Jorgensen singed a consent form. There is the case of tall girls being treated with DES when being tall was considered to be a medical condition. They now have medical problems which appear to be iatrogenic.
For someone involved in an ideology that promotes freedom of health choice it is quite the contradiction that you rail against people doing just that--making choices for themselves and their children. It really is not your business to judge or promote interference. This is one of the major contradictions on the Right--Freedom for me but not for thee. Time to get your thinking straight and chose one side or the other.
Pushing the perversion in our face is not freedom of health choice. It's a theft of OUR health freedom. My rights don't end where your emotions begin. A good government should have a standard of morality that does not feed the immorality of those whose choices are not unlimited. We on the "right" have chosen our side and wish people like you get your own thinking straight. Your ilk is obviously privileged to the point where you misrepresent exactly what IS the power of our government. Because if that power were indeed exercised, you'd be condemned in a country founded FOR honest and moral people. You call it an "ideology" but we call it a perversion. Yet we tolerate it as long as it doesn't push your ideology on us by claiming some right to do so.
It can be a tricky question but there is a slippery slope you promote. There needs to be a principle that is supported and followed universally, not selectively. It is the essence of so much of what if a problem in this country that betrays any democratic functioning.
But I will repeat that this is a bogus issue created for the typical GOP strategy of creating emotional hysteria for their divide and conquer goals. It is a total distraction from real issues that affect everyone's life.
I also point out again, gender reassignment is never done naively, is done only when there is some biological need for the child and always done with the mental health of the family explored and considered. Are you supporting the same mantra as with covid--that politicians are better able to decide on health issues for the individual without knowing or considering the specific conditions? Isn't this the very essence of the fight for individual choice for vaccination? Or the right to have one's religious, health and/or philosophical beliefs respected? Many who buy into the mandates argue exactly what you are proposing here.
“I also point out again, gender reassignment is never done naively, is done only when there is some biological need for the child and always done with the mental health of the family explored and considered.”
You seem unable to understand the difference between Adult autonomy and Child vulnerability.
Typical Progressive stance. Kids are your medical playground; kill them inside, partially inside or newly outside the womb…or pump them full of toxic hormones and mutilate their genitals…it’s all good.
Speaking of the need to “choose one side or the other,” what side of this are you on, Tanya? After all, surgery always comes with risks including death, right?
“Background: The absence of a functional vagina has a negative effect on the quality of life of women. Multiple surgical procedures have been described for vaginal reconstruction in these patients.
Case: We present a case of an 18-year-old transgender woman, who underwent laparoscopic intestinal vaginoplasty as vaginal reconstruction, and subsequently developed septic shock and multiple organ failure on the basis of an extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli. A severe progression of the necrotizing fasciitis was lethal, despite repeated surgical debridement, intravenous antibiotic use, and supportive care at the intensive care unit.
Summary and conclusion: Although vaginal reconstruction has a positive influence on the quality of life in transgender women, physicians and patients need to be aware of serious complications that might arise.”
This poor Man died in a valiant yet misguided effort to do the impossible, that is, to become a Woman. Even if he’d survived, he’d never experience an orgasm because, well, only actual Women can have those with their genuine female parts.
So the whole point of such surgery even if technically successful is ultimately sexual frustration and functional disappointment. That doesn’t sound like a path to wholeness and happiness to me. Does it to you, Tanya?
Look on any issue people can find some horror story or another. How often do people say they have no problem with their covid drug shots implying anyone who complains is lying or delusional. And you are right that every medical interventions--surgery or drugs, can be fatal. The biggest cause of death in this country, annually, is allopathic medicine legally employed. And given this is only about 1-10% of the deaths so caused, this seems a much bigger concern than a rare mishap with transgender surgery. Of course any such death is tragic and I won't engage in that as the argument to make on the issue. Further, the number of these cases are quite minimal. And as previously noted, such gender re-assignment surgeries have been performed safely for over 50-60 years in this country without any hysteria about them. I doubt you even knew this was happening. And mental health assessment was/is always part of the process before most/all doctors will perform it. Actually, their assessment is often quite abusive to the person seeking such surgery or hormonal treatment as most doctors are quite conventional including their own personal biases and bigotry. I would even question whether a gone bad operation was not influenced by such bigotry--you know the concept as in demanding a husband do the dishes and he 'manages' to break his wife's favorite dish!
I would also note that your position could be applied to every other conditions, especially all those elected cosmetic surgeries. Bariatric surgeries come to mind where almost all of them fail at some point causing great pain and more surgeries. There are many more of these than gender reassignments. I can also note the harm done with all those knee replacements that have a high rate of failure with great pain and additional costs. So let's put your concerns in perspective noting a) the miniscule number of cases and b) the prejudicial and judgemental nature of the hysteria being revved up on a non-issue that should always be a personal choice, and c) the call must be for improved medical care in the surgery as well as in the clinic--this is true on every medical intervention
But what’s the point of making a fake vagina or fake penis? They cause permanent injury to the part(s) of the body harvested for material. Then they don’t even work.
If I were to believe I was a Unicorn, I could have part of my thigh tissues and bone removed and fashioned into a horn for the center of my forehead.
Would it really be ethical for my Surgeon to assist me with my delusion?
After all, if I can become a dude, why not an Animal? Trans Speciesism makes about as much sense.
“Necrotizing cellulitis after intestinal vaginoplasty: a fatal infection after a team of surgeons castrated a teenaged boy then cut a hole in his crotch and tried to turn it into a vagina by sewing in a chunk of his colon. Notice the abbreviated journal title up at the top of the image: The Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology. So here we have a “pediatric and adolescent” case report that describes the death of a healthy eighteen year-old after surgeons carved up his body to affirm his gender. Jack the Ripper, you were born in the wrong era.
So if you think it might be a bad idea to castrate children, you’re expressing hate. If you’re a little iffy on carving vaginas into boys, using strips of their guts that might kill them with an infection, then, well, stop being a Nazi. Someone shot the Overton Window into the Oort Cloud while we weren’t watching. Mary Shelley is Literally Adolf Hitler, viciously maligning the wise and warm-hearted Dr. Frankenstein and his glorious monst— uh, his glorious achievement. Nature is a cruel impediment, but we have brave surgeons to conquer it by cutting us into our true form. Carving up healthy young bodies is health and love. Here, go watch some detransitioners discuss the health of their bodies after ‘gender-affirming’ surgery.”
We’re going to hear a lot more of these nightmarish Caveat Emptor stories as this movement away from Reason continues.
Hey, maybe ignore Nike’s manic advice and DON’T DO IT? There’s always frilly dresses, soft undergarments and make-up, so why destroy your very foundation to build your Castle in the Air?
What an ignorant comment, Tanya. You clearly need attention and don't care if it's all negative. You are not going to convert any sane people on this substack to your perverse word salads espousing destructive social engineering. You are evidently a paid troll for the Communist mob.
Let’s talk about the Cancer risk when you unnaturally bathe the young human in cross sex hormones, shall we? A small price to pay for those who profit from the sale and use of these products and surgeries, of course. Fortunately it’s not one these Adults will ever have to address. Once again, the victims are always the kids.
“Some, but not all, transgender people elect to undergo medical gender affirmation, which may include therapy with cross-sex hormones and/or surgical change of the genitalia and other sex characteristics. As cross-sex hormones administered for the purposes of gender affirmation may be delivered at high doses and over a period of decades, the carcinogenicity of hormonal therapy in transgender people is an area of considerable concern.”
Say it ain't so? Why? We want transparency. Which side do you choose. Asa is for mutilating children. It's good to know. Like RFKjr imprisoning global warming deniers.
I agree with the basic moral arguments of the commenters here. However, unless I read Asa’s comments incorrectly, I see where he’s coming from, he makes a good point which I will paraphrase here “if we legislate parental rights, we can require vaccination” (see his comment). The only problem with this comment is the GOP already AGREED decades ago with the idea of required vaccinations. Hes citing age-old GOP conservative argument which I agree with: limit government involvement in individual lives as much as possible.
Here’s an interesting example of a govt law that went wrong: Pro-life advocates helped push a bill in Texas some years ago that allowed pharmacists to refuse the “morning-after” pill. One astute prolife conservative Senator (who I know personally fairly well, and she’s an MD) argued against it. She stated at the time it would come back to bite patients and doctors. It did. From 2020-present, HEB (our primary largest and most prolific grocery store in Texas) pharmacies are refusing Ivermectin prescriptions from many doctors (I have this directly from Dr Bowden BTW, she’s written directly to me about it and tweeted about it). So, again, while we may agree morally, less govt intrusion sometimes is better.
A true Conservative does not need to pander to the chaos agents espousing "trans-sexualism," reverse racism, or anti-meritocracy (aka affirmative action) to win an election. There are enough sane voters, even in the Dem party, who reject these heinous perversions and fairy tales.
Hutchinson may as well withdraw his candidacy today after making such a frankly stupid and ill-advised statement. In my eyes, he's done politically.
Transgendering children is the mistake. Hormone treatment is the price children pay. They can't have one without the other, so they should stop where it begins - transgender children!
This RINO is worse than a Democrat. It's because of subhumans like RINOs that ranked choice voting may not be entirely bad. It would be good to be able to rank this RINO last on the list, just below Pence, on a long ballot.
Ranked choice voting is still bad, but I get your point.

Pure nonsense!
Provide data....... or go away plz.
Bullshit
I think they are doing it because some people care about innocent women and girls, and also men and boys, who are the victims Tanya.
HARM OF MEN CLAIMING TO BE WOMEN Short, limited list of sexual and violent crime case examples. To list them all worldwide would require thousands of pages. https://documents.parliament.qld.gov.au/com/LASC-C96E/PPROLAB202-EF1C/Taken%20on%20Notice%20and%20Response,%20Womens%20Forum%20Australia.pdf

What? Pure nonsensical ideation Children?
All choices aren’t equal. If a Parent wanted their Child to undergo sterilization or elective amputation, would that be their right, Tanya?
Do you see how absurd your position is or are you all caught up in defending the indefensible act of Child Genital Mutilation and Hormone Injury?
It can be a tricky question but there is a slippery slope you promote. There needs to be a principle that is supported and followed universally, not selectively. It is the essence of so much of what if a problem in this country that betrays any democratic functioning.
