In today's culture, we're being force-fed these theories that gender is fluid, that there are more than two, that it cannot be assigned at birth, etc. While we know that there are only two genders and that they are not fluid, transgender individuals do exist. How you perceive that is up to you (and I will ask you to elaborate on your own thoughts later) however for the sake of this post, we're going to accept that it's a real thing.

There has recently been an alarming trend of parents allowing their children to transition as children, including taking hormones that will cause permanent changes to their young bodies - which is dangerous. As anyone who has spent time around a child for more than 5 minutes knows, children don't always know what they want. A little girl may want to be a boy one day but a mailbox the next. A young boy may really love wearing mommy's heels and carrying her purse, but he may have no real desire to be a woman - he's just emulating a person he loves, being too young to understand that mom and dad are different. All of that said, I would still say it's entirely possible for an actual transgender person to start knowing as a child that they were this way - however, the proper response is not to jump in and encourage it, but rather to seek professional help for your child in the form of a counselor who can help get to the root of the feelings.

Children have a special kind of innocence that we are in danger of corrupting by introducing adult concepts like sexuality at far too young an age. Think back to your own childhood; at what point do you recall starting to think of whether you were attracted to boys or girls? Did anyone talk to you about which one you should be attracted to, or start explaining homosexuality or other atypical kinds of relationships to you? I would imagine that it never happened unless you had an unhealthy childhood.

We know the stereotypical #KillAllMen feminist. It's no secret that these women hate men - here's a great example of just how selfish and hateful these kind of women can be. While I am sure many of these women would be appalled by the statistics of female babies aborted in India due to their gender, many wouldn't bat an eye at the equally abhorrent concept of aborting a son because you're a feminist.

My questions for you:

  1. What are your thoughts on transgender children? Are they just innocent kids with active imaginations, or are they actually beginning to realize that they are a transgendered individual? What are your thoughts on being transgendered in general, do you think it's a real condition, mental illness, etc.?

  2. We've had a noticeable uptick in the number of transgender children in the past decade-ish - is this as a result of feminist mothers pushing their children to be different/unique, or some sort of weird Munchausen-by-proxy syndrome where they want their child to be persecuted in the ways that they only perceived that they were?

  3. Any other thoughts on this issue?
