What are the ingredients of an enduring and successful social foundation? In recent decades, that question holds increasing importance due to a modern trend that normalizes the abnormal. The convoluted mindset of the transgender industrial complex (TIC) defies the definition of biological gender as it strives to subvert the timeless bonds that keep society from collapsing, including the mangling of the English language.
From time immemorial, God and nature have shaped a match made in heaven. That match is the attraction and interactive relationship between natural males and females. The qualities that might be lacking in males are to be found in females and vice versa, thus creating a complementary whole. This natural formation has nothing to do with privilege but has everything to do with the natural order.
Does this mean that everything is peachy keen? No, there are challenges to face in learning how to rein in human egos for the benefit of healthy relationships. There will be squabbles and incidents that revolve around dignity and pride. Over time, with hard work and patience, the rough edges can be sculpted into an enduring work of art.
The amazing fit of male and female allows for the perpetuation of the human race and the upward slope of genuine progress. With all of its challenges, the traditional family unit is truly the building block of society. As they grow up, children need fathers as much as they need mothers to guide them on the path toward maturity. Absent the presence of one or both parents who can lend support, the chances of failure tend to multiply for children.
In contrast to healthy families and relationships, the TIC offers a pathway to perdition. Just follow the money, which leads to academia, big business, government agencies, and the American Medical Association, all of which promote unnatural transgenderism. In a few short years, it has become a money maker for dystopian elites who crave control over the lives of vulnerable young people. Several European nations have wisely pulled back from the edge of the cliff regarding biological gender tampering.
Why all of a sudden are there so many cases of dysphoria in America? Are the numbers a result of draconian pandemic policies or is there something more sinister at work? Or are a sizable portion of the alleged cases of dysphoria manufactured in order to market transgender procedures? Hopefully, more drilling down into the TIC will provide some answers.
What makes the TIC so pernicious is the fact that it often withholds crucial information from minors and parents regarding the moderate to long-term repercussions of hormone and puberty blocking drugs, as well as gender transitioning or detransitioning surgeries. This unconscionable indifference toward mental and physical agony is well portrayed in Epoch TV’s recent film, “Gender Transformation: The Untold Realities.” Greed and power are on full display.
By contrast, a superior alternative for youngsters who are conflicted about their gender, is the route of a social and spiritual network that encourages thoughtful awareness and support for the process of maturation. Puberty is a challenging time for both males and females as their bodies and total development undergo changes that move them from childhood to young adulthood. Some of these youngsters will experience gender dysphoria, but most outgrow it as they journey through secondary school and take on more responsibilities.
Unfortunately, the TIC ignores these realities and operates on the basis of capricious emotions rather than the immutable facts concerning gender from birth. It’s doesn’t take rocket science to comprehend that females have the XX chromosome while males have the XY chromosome, except for rare genetic conditions. No matter what activists tell young people, this DNA doesn’t change. It is embedded in every individual from birth to death. Feelings can change each day, while facts are permanent.
If unscrupulous influencers persuade young people to transition via drugs and surgery, it still doesn’t change the fact that no one can change their original gender. Indeed, carrying out a transition can lead to a number of adverse consequences for healthy youngsters who don’t need this “gender-affirming care” in the first place. Authentic gender-affirming care includes promoting the fine qualities that can be cultivated in biological boys and girls, or men and women.
Finally, there are pockets of good news that are unfolding across America. Parents and young people are fighting back against the diabolical transgender infrastructure that rips families apart and robs minors of their innocence. They are taking proactive protests to school boards, individual schools, and government agencies. They are exposing the devious agenda of the TIC and voting out politicians who endorse it. Folks are battling with their wallets to avoid contributing profits to woke corporatists. TIC, keep your hands away from America’s children. They are the nation’s future and don’t belong to you.
