The Wellness Society and Males and Females

• Girls have historically been at a high risk to fall victim to social contagion, from the Salem Witch Trials to binge eating to "gender dysphoria."
• Girls and others with "vulnerable brains" can be influenced to believe they are "transgender" (the opposite sex) or "nonbinary" (neither sex) by:
• social media such as Instagram and Tik Tok
• friends, classmates, siblings who've already been indoctrinated
• school teachers in liberal states (CA, NY, IL, etc) 
• employees at a "gender affirming clinic"

If a child demonstrates "opposite sex" behaviors (e.g., a "tomboy" or "girly boy") then the child and/or others (teacher, friends, parents, pro-gender ideology health care practitioners) might think the child is literally the opposite sex.

• EXAMPLE 1: A girl exhibits traditional masculine behaviors (e.g., plays with boys, prefers "boy" toys, dresses like boys) and her teacher suggests she might be a boy.
• EXAMPLE 2: A boy exhibits  traditional feminine behaviors (e.g., plays with girls, prefers "girl" toys, and dresses like girls) and his older brother tells him he's a girl. 

• If a man is attracted to another man then he might think he is a woman.
• If a woman is attracted to another woman then she might think she is a man. 

Teenagers can also be confused:

• If a girl is attracted to another girl then she might think she is a boy. 
• If a boy is attracted to another boy then he might think he is a girl.
• If the child's parents are homophobic, the child is at increased risk of not accepting his or her sex. 

• If a person has a history of being abused or maltreated then s/he may be uncomfortable with and want to "get away from" his or her body. 
• For instance, a boy is sexually abused (raped) and subsequently thinks he is not a "real man" or even a man at all.  
• In some cases, a girl is sexually abused and subsequently no longer wants to be a "weak" and vulnerable girl. 
• To "escape"  from their identity as a sexually abused child, they insist they are the opposite sex (or no sex, which they refer to as non-binary) and self-medicate with "gender affirming care."
• Another way they might attempt to "self-medicate" is with with drugs / alcohol.

• If the person autism, schizophrenia, or certain other psychiatric diagnoses, then they are vulnerable to being influenced (via social contagion) to believe they have "gender dysphoria" and are not the sex they were born and, instead, come to believe (through social contagion) that they are "transgender," "non-binary," "gender fluid," or another non-sensical "gender identity."
• Because of social contagion, these people with "gender dysphoria" will self-medicate with "social transitioning"  and even "gender affirming care" (puberty blockers, opposite sex hormones and surgery, for instance, the bilateral mastectomy of a girl).

• One survey found some girls who previously thought they were not girls (that is, thought they were "transgender" or "non-binary") actually had a mental illness such as anxiety, depression or PTSD.
• 88.51% depressive mood disorder (77.03% diagnosed)
• 87.08% anxiety disorder (74.16% diagnosed)
• 32.04% have PTSD (anxiety from direct exposure to trauma)
• 77.14% experienced disassociation (8.46% diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder)
• 44.33% eating disorder (21.67% diagnosed)
• 28.71% have ADHD
• 20% have OCD 
• 15.12% have autism spectrum disorder (ASD)

• If the mother of the child has the mental illness Factitious Disorder Imposed on Another (previously known as Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy), she might try to insist her child is "transgender" or "non-binary" 
• The mother is driven by the desire to receive attention, fame, and monetary gain. 
• Examples of these women are found on social media and the news.
• These women need mental health treatment themselves, not be allowed to further abuse their child. 
• FYI: Compared to mothers, this mental disorder is essentially non-existent in fathers.

• Over half (53%) of the mothers whose sons have "gender dysphoria" suffer from borderline personality disorder (BPD). 
• This is compared to only 6% of those who have children who do not.
• The mothers with BPD are emotionally unstable, have chronic feelings of emptiness, have a disturbed self-image, and are prone to self-destructive behaviors, including suicide and attempts.
• These women need mental health treatment themselves, not be allowed to further confuse and harm their children. 
• FYI: Of the people with BPD, 75% are women and only 25% are men. 

• During the COVID-19 pandemic, young people's primary connection to the outside world was via social media - which was (and is) rife with gender identity propaganda.  
• A study concluded the COVID-19 pandemic caused a significant increase in "gender dysphoria."
• The authors, who strongly support gender ideology, argued the increase was because the youths did not receive "confirmation" from society.
• However, this is false because the youths received overwhelming "confirmation" on social media.
• In essence, the authors twisted the truth. 

• "Gender affirming care" is hugely profitable. 
• The owners and operators of the Trans Train include pharmaceutical companies, "gender clinics" in medical centers, Planned Parenthood, and individual "health care" providers such as "gender affirming care" physicians, surgeons and "mental health" therapists. 

• In 2007, the first"gender clinic" in the USA opened. By 2017, there were at least 40. 
• The number jumped to 100 in 2022 and 500 by  2023. This alone is evidence the TRANS TRAIN is hugely profitable. 
• Unless they are stopped, expect more clinics to jump onboard! 

• Analogy: Is it ethical to perform an amputation on a person with Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIDD) or assist a girl with anorexia nervosa to lose weight?
• People who want to "change their gender" suffer anxiety from an identity disorder and body dysmorphia. The treatment is not surgery, but therapy to accept his or her body. 

• Because my daughter was a tomboy, she would have been targeted (e.g., her teachers and social contagion) to believe she was "transgender." 
• She would have been told (or, she simply could have googled it) that she met the "transgender" criteria adopted by even otherwise respectable medical organizations such as the  Mayo Clinic. 
• If we had still lived in a "pro-trans" state, social contagion could have prompted her to sneak off to the nearest Planned Parenthood for "gender affirming care."

• At Planned Parenthood,  my daughter would have met with a pro-transgender therapist who would have immediately:
• "confirmed" her, 
• encouraged or supported her idea to "socially transition" (e.g., change her name to a male sounding name), 
• told her how to obtain a binder to bind her breasts, and 
• notified the affiliated "pro-transgender" physician that my daughter was ready to start to "medically transition."

• Next, the physician would have called me/her father in and asked, "Do you want a dead daughter or a live son?" 
• Then, unless we told the physician "No, you are wrong" and stormed out, the physician would have eagerly prescribed puberty blockers progressing to testosterone and a bilateral mastectomy, scooping up their profit on the TRANS TRAIN.
• Had my daughter's supported her "transition," but I did not, he could have sued for custody of her on those grounds.  

• This is a young woman who was duped into thinking she was "transgender" when she was a girl. 
• The photograph illustrates how five years of testosterone can ravage a girl's body. 
• This brave woman now speaks out about the harms of "gender ideology" and "gender affirming care." 
• She shares her story in the video below. 

• Fortunately for my daughter and our family, the TRANS TRAIN wasn't yet up and running when she was a young tomboy. 
• She is now a happy and healthy lesbian! 
• But, the TRANS TRAIN is now mighty powerful so if your daughter is a tomboy (or otherwise at risk of "gender dysphoria") then please continue to educate yourself and protect your daughter!
