Most "Trans" Kids Turn Out to be Gay; or: Psychology and Medicine Will Believe Even Patent Absurdities If the Left Tells Them To

These points have been made many times--though apparently not enough.

   I'd summarize the case like so: trans ideology is false and, in fact, incoherent. That should be enough for any scientist--and any rational person--to reject it. But wait! There's more! TI is also brainwashing and sexually mutilating children. Surely that should be sufficient for it to be rejected...right? Even if you don't care about truth, you might care about kids...mightn't you? As it turns out: no. Postmodern progressives are even willing to sacrifice children on the alter of their ideology. The sex-obsessed left seems to think that a completely nonorgasmic, nonreproductive life is a small price to pay for genderological correctness. But wait! What about actual genders--i.e. masculinity and femininity? Especially as paired with the sexes. They hate that! They're all about the feminine men and masculine girls. But transanity basically says there are no such atypical sex/gender pairings! Butch females are really males; feminine males are really girls! Surely they'll count that as a reductio...right? Negative, Ghost Rider. Somehow they're ok with that. Really? OK, but what about the gay? They love the gay! The gay is maybe the greatest thing in the world to the left! The gay is love! The gay is life! The gay is fabulous! Transanity seems to be mainly mutilating gay kids--kids who would, in due course, realize that they were not "born in the wrong body"...they're just gay. And that's ok. Now, even if progressives don't care about truth, and even if they don't care about sexually mutilating children and yadda yadda yadda...by their own lights, they have to care about gays...right? right???

   Well, of course, not so far. The left is The Upside Down. Nothing makes any sense over there. Absolutely everything points against trans ideology...except for trans ideology. If any political doctrine ever was obviously false, it's that doctrine...and yet, so powerful is the groupthink on the left, so impenetrable their echo chamber, that they are still viciously protecting that absurd and destructive dogma. First the interests of women and now those of homosexuals (in the broad sense) must be sacrificed to the made-up interests of a made-up group based almost entirely in a fantastical leftist ideology thought up last Tuesday in the women's studies department...

   It's all so utterly mad that it's almost impossible to believe. 

   One often wonders: how did slavery survive? How were people so crazy as to convince themselves that it was ok? Well, crazy as slavery was, this is crazier. And yet it not only survives, it has become an article of pious faith on the left. It is now their flagship issue, and they are pushing it farther and farther into the fabric of American life. They are having it codified in law. They are trying to make it possible to prosecute even relatively minor deviations from its precepts. To question any jot or tittle is to open yourself up for an attack by the social media Reavers...

   But it's not just activist loons who believe this stuff...it's the entire disciplines of psychology and medicine. (Not to say every individual psychologist or doctor, of course.) And that's where this all becomes so profoundly insane that I almost don't know what to say about it anymore. I certainly didn't see this coming. It's probably the capture of scientific...or at least semi-scientific...disciplines that's the craziest part of this whole crazy story...

   Well, enough of this for now.
