This is from the WordPress blog Dead Wild Roses … you know how WordPress is, sometimes you can reblog a post you like & sometimes you can’t & I wasn’t able to reblog this one, but I really wanted to share it. Now I think most of my readers know that I’m not a MAGA person or a trumpster by any means, but I do have friends & family who are, & while I think many of their views are vile (to put it mildly), we do agree on a few issues. The “transing” of children is one of them.
I want to say (AGAIN) that I am not anti-trans, nor anti-gay, nor anti-anything … I think that every adult should have the right to live their life the way they want to, without any interference from the government or church or any other person … as long as they are not harming any other person … which is just common fucking sense. But when it comes to children … the rules change. You don’t mess around with children. As a mother & a grandmother, I’m dead ass about this.
There are plenty of us … gay, lesbian, bisexual & trans who think like this but we have been shouted down & silenced by much louder (ruder) voices in the LBGTQIA+ activism organizations & on social media as well as the MSM which has been totally bought over by them. To say anything other than transkids should have anything other than “affirmative” care means you’re a bigot, a transphobe & if you’re a woman, a TERF.
As someone who has a diagnosis of bipolar disorder & suffers from migraines & degenerative disk disease & who knows plenty of other people with other mental & physical disorders, I can attest that when a person has any kind of mental or bodily distress, “affirmative” care is not the way to go about it. Do you tell a person with anorexia nervosa that they are really fat & they should go on dieting until they are too thin & sick to live? OF COURSE NOT.
When a child insists that they are born in the wrong body, you do NOT agree with them. You tell them that NOBODY is born in the wrong body & they are PERFECT THE WAY THEY ARE.
THAT’S AFFIRMATIVE CARE!
