Kaiser healthcare pushes gender-affirming workshop on children
A leaked email shows the healthcare giant inviting minors to the workshop without parental knowledge

Kaiser Permanente, one of the nation’s largest health care organizations, is promoting gender-affirming programming to minor patients without the knowledge or consent of parents, a mother told Libs of TikTok in an exclusive interview.

The mother, who spoke to Libs of TikTok on the condition of anonymity, said she was tipped off to Kaiser’s gender-affirming workshop after looking through her child’s patient portal. Her 16-year-old trans-identifying teen received an email with an invitation to join the “Pediatric Gender Expression Care Workshop,” a series of courses on social gender transitions. There is no parental permission required to join the workshop, according to the email provided.

A Nobel Prize-winning developmental biologist has slammed claims that there are multiple genders as “nonsense” and “unscientific.”

Dr. Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard dismissed the “woke” ideology that suggests there are more than two genders by noting the scientific facts.

Nüsslein-Volhard, who has won multiple scientific awards, including the 1995 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, also warned that letting children determine their own gender is “madness.”

“All mammals have two sexes, and man is a mammal,” she explained during an interview published by the German feminist magazine EMMA...

“There’s the one sex that produces the eggs, has two X chromosomes.

“That’s called female,” she notes.

“And there’s the other one that makes the sperm, has an X and a Y chromosome. That’s called male.”

There are animals that produce both sperm and eggs, such as snails.

These animals, therefore, can create offspring without having to mate.

However, this “does not change the fact that there are two germ cells, eggs and sperm, and therefore two sexes,” Nüsslein-Volhard asserted.

The renowned biologist was asked during the interview about recent assertions by Germany’s Commissioner for the Acceptance of Sexual and Gender Diversity, Sven Lehmann.

Lehmann argues that the belief in only two genders is “unscientific.”

“This is unscientific!” Nüsslein-Volhard fired back.

“Perhaps Herr Lehmann missed the basic course in biology.”

Nüsslein-Volhard did not deny that there is variation within the sexes.

“There are very ‘feminine’ men and very ‘masculine’ women, which not only has to do with cultural factors, but also with different hormone levels, among other things,” she said.

“There’s a huge spectrum.”

She did, however, insist that one cannot change from male to female or vice versa.

Referring to the idea that an individual is whatever gender he or she claims to be, she declared, “That’s nonsense!

“It’s wishful thinking,” she added.

“There are people who want to change their gender, but they can’t do it.”

She explained that gender is built into every single chromosome in the human body and affects each individual’s development from the moment of conception.

“Nonsense” is also the word she applied to the German Federal Constitutional Court’s 2017 ruling that “gender … is also determined by social and psychological factors.”

“How you feel can be changed by social and psychological circumstances,” she explains.

“But not biological sex.

“Wherever science is really practiced, this is also completely indisputable.”

Furthermore, she warns that “irreversible interventions” in a futile attempt to change a person’s sex can have serious consequences.

Surgically removing a girl’s breasts or replacing a boy’s sex organs with fake female ones is, of course, permanent.

“But the hormones also add something to the body that is not intended to be there,” she said.

This intervention causes changes “both physically and psychologically,” Nüsslein-Volhard continues.

“The body cannot handle it well in the long run.

“Every hormone you take has side effects.

“Taking hormones is inherently dangerous.”

It comes as no surprise, therefore, that the eminent scientist is opposed to the government’s push to let children as young as 14 choose their own gender.

“This is madness!” she exclaimed.

She recalled that, like “many girls,” she “was also unhappy at 14 and preferred to be a boy,” especially since she wanted to enter a field then dominated by men.

Fortunately, she grew up at a time when common sense dictated otherwise and she learned how to cope with her feelings and eventually became comfortable in her own skin.

Nüsslein-Volhard is, naturally, aware of the fact that science has become increasingly politicized in recent decades, particularly when it comes to sex and gender issues.

For example, Berlin’s Humboldt University canceled a lecture by biology doctoral student Marie-Luise Vollbrecht after a group of law students complained “that the institution was turning a blind eye to her transphobic assertion that there are only two biological sexes” and other trans activist groups mounted a protest, reported 4W.

“Do they now want to abolish biology classes as well?” asked Nüsslein-Volhard.

“Do we no longer want to know who we are and how gender is determined?

“It’s not okay to ban a lecture because you think there might be something wrong with it,” she said.

“This mixture of sensitivity and moral arrogance paired with ignorance is simply fatal.”

Gay Community Rejecting Transgender Ideology as ‘LGB, Drop the T’ Movement Grows

Many in the gay community are beginning to reject transgender ideology as support for the “LGB, Drop the T” movement grows.

Activists are calling for LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender) to be restored to just LGB.

Those who support the “LGB, Drop the T” campaign argue that transgender ideology has heavily politized the community with a radical progressive agenda.

The hashtag #LGBdroptheT has been spreading on social media and trending on Twitter more frequently in recent years.

In August, a huge wave of gay activists took to Twitter to reject the transgender agenda when #LGBdroptheT became the top trending hashtag.

2SLGBTQAE… and lets face it, not like theres an official committee deciding on whats in it. might as well add arbitrary letters for fun.

They're coming for the Organ Donors now.

Steven Hannah is enlisting other people's children in his sexual fantasies. ... This is the guy in the van trying to give your children candy. ... He is a freakin weirdo wagging fake breasts in the face of your children because it titillates him. And if you complain about that, you're the problem.

Tucker Carlson: "People that underwent 'gender-affirming surgery' were 19 times more likely to kill themselves than people who hadn't."

My team and I have been investigating the transgender clinic at Vanderbilt here in Nashville. Vanderbilt drugs, chemically castrates, and performs double mastectomies on minors. But it gets worse. Here is what we found. Let's start at the beginning

Vanderbilt was apparently concerned that not all of its staff would be on board. Dr. Ellen Clayton warned that "conscientious objections" are "problematic." Anyone who decides not to be involved in transition surgeries due to "religious beliefs" will face "consequences"

Vanderbilt opened its trans clinic in 2018. During a lecture the same year, Dr. Shayne Taylor explained how she convinced Nashville to get into the gender transition game. She emphasized that it's a "big money maker," especially because the surgeries require a lot of "follow ups"

In case the objectors hadn't gotten the memo, Vanderbilt unveiled a program called "Trans Buddies." The "buddies" are trans activists from the community who attend appointments with trans patients, monitoring the doctors to guard against "unsafe" behavior such as misgendering

Vanderbilt makes their Trans Buddies available to children, too. They make lots of "services" available to children, including chemical castration. Though at some point in the last month they removed explicit admission of this fact from their site. Here's the archived screenshot

But they must have forgot to delete a video from Vanderbilt Psychiatry’s Youtube channel back in 2020 which admits explicitly that they will give and have given irreversible hormone drugs to children as young as 13.

So, let’s review. Vanderbilt got into the gender transition game admittedly in large part because it is very financially profitable. They then threatened any staff members who objected, and enlisted a gang of trans activists to act as surveillance in order to force compliance.

This is what "health care" has become in modern America.

They now castrate, sterilize, and mutilate minors as well as adults, while apparently taking steps to hide this activity from the public view.

Here’s one thing I’ve noticed doing that over the last decade or two: when systems (organizations, life forms, algorithms...) have a life-or-death need to align to reality as precisely as possible, they tend to combine heterogeneous types of evidence to arrive at conclusions.
