The Problems with Trans-ideology

The 1.7% number is from a flawed study conducted nearly 25 years ago.

From the article:

For example, the best-known estimate of the prevalence of intersex individuals is 1.7% of the total population, drawn from a 2000 study by a team of researchers that included Brown University sexologist Anne Fausto-Sterling. However, Sterling's study used a very broad definition of intersexuality, which has been criticized by other experts. In a response in the Journal of Sex Research, psychologist Leonard Sax offered a narrower definition of intersexuality, which resulted in an estimated concentration of 0.018% of the population—nearly 100 times less common than Fausto-Sterling's estimate.

We can all agree it is ridiculously small. So why is Huff acting like it's this big thing? Hmm....

I agree on that. I have another cousin (fkn 60+ first cousins) who I am pretty sure she just decided she wanted to dress her boy like a girl.

But there are also kids who are confused because it's their nature, and they have a chance at a mentally healthy life if we love them, accept their choices, and don't tell them they are crazy when we don't know it's mental illness.

What about intersex people...mentally ill? Tough one there, buddy.

If intersex means having both male and female genitalia then that is a birth defect.

First, child protective services needs to step in. Second, someone over 60 doesn’t need to have a young child unless it’s an extreme circumstance.

No, people who are intersex are not mentally ill. Which is why it’s gross to bring them into these arguments. As if being intersex as the same as a teenage girl who still dresses like a girl and dates boys, but uses “they/them” pronouns and identifies as “nonbinary”.

Those are remotely the same thing. One has a mental issue. One has a physical issue.

Caster Semenya was quite literally “born that way”.

She has taken no hormones.
She has had no surgeries.
She did not choose.
She simply is.

Does anyone think she is “mentally ill”?
I certainly don’t. Not in the slightest.

Possibly along with having birth defects.

She claims to be the father of a couple of children?

Well, is she?

He claims to have fathered 2 children...not given birth..internal testicles says he is an underdeveloped male. XY chromeesome verified that. Can't speak to her mental illness.

She is an extremely rare and unique individual. I guess I would not be surprised if she was capable of that.

It’s silly to hold her up as an example of anything that needs to be planned or gamed for.

I agree. Carter seems to be an exception....with genetic and physical exceptions. I wouldn't classify Carter as a trans... definitely intersex
