Canadian activist Billboard Chris addressed the European Parliament, delivering a speech critical of what he described as “gender-affirming care” for minors.
In his remarks, Chris argued that there is “no such thing as a transgender child” and questioned the medical use of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries for young people. He cited his own advocacy work, conversations with medical professionals, and research reviews to support his position.
The speech forms part of an ongoing and highly contested international debate over gender identity, child healthcare, medical ethics, and the role of state institutions in regulating treatment for minors. Critics and supporters of gender-affirming care strongly disagree on the evidence, ethics, and outcomes involved.
The European Parliament appearance has sparked renewed discussion across Europe on how governments and medical systems should approach gender-related healthcare for children.

NewsTranscript
00:00For over five years now, I've been on a mission to raise awareness about what I consider to be
00:05the greatest child abuse scandal in the history of modern medicine, the practice of what is known
00:12as gender-affirming care, or colloquially known as trying to change the sex of children,
00:18with puberty-blocking drugs, the opposite sex's hormones, and surgeries. All because of this idea
00:25that these children are what is known as transgender. Now, this might be shocking to
00:32some, but I maintain that there's no such thing as a transgender child. I have had thousands of
00:42conversations on the street. I go to university campuses all around the world. I go to conferences.
00:47I work with psychologists, psychiatrists, doctors, all the major conservative organizations across
00:52the West as well. And in all of my time having these tens of thousands of conversations,
00:58I haven't yet met one person who can tell me what a transgender child is.
01:04What does it mean to be transgender? What does it mean to have a gender identity?
01:10I am going to go through a few slides today to discuss what I consider to be
01:14really one of the greatest lies ever told in the history of the human race.
01:18The positive message we should be sending our kids is that they're beautiful just as they are.
01:24Instead, they're getting a message that they were born wrong, and they need to change their body.
01:28The only thing that is affirming in children is self-hatred.
01:32And we'll get into what type of children these are, who are identifying this way,
01:36and in particular, we'll get into what type of children are going to gender clinics,
01:42and what's being done to them.
01:44But let's go to the first slide, if we can.
01:53So this is difficult to read from your distance, but this is honestly the most used resource in the world
02:01when defining what these various terms surrounding gender ideology are.
02:07So this is called the gender-bred person.
02:09This is produced by an activist.
02:12And it defines on the left side there, under gender identity,
02:18it says that we're all on a scale of woman-ness or man-ness,
02:22and that our gender identity is based on our personality, our job, our hobbies, our likes and dislikes.
02:33And I would maintain that this is a rather regressive and sexist way to look at what your gender is.
02:41What does your job have to do with your gender?
02:44What do your hobbies have to do with your gender?
02:47Are we going to tell little boys who like to bake with their mom in the kitchen
02:50that that must put them on the female spectrum of gender?
02:55That's absurd.
02:57Are we going to tell girls who don't want to wear dresses and who want to have short hair,
03:00perhaps who like to play sports with the boys,
03:03that that makes them a boy?
03:05This is nonsensical.
03:09More than half of the women growing up are what we would call in North America tomboys.
03:16It's just more fun, perhaps.
03:18You don't have to wear a dress to be a girl.
03:21The positive message, again, we should be sending kids is there's no right or wrong way to be a boy or a girl.
03:26If a boy is more effeminate, he's not trans.
03:30He's just a boy.
03:31But this ideology has come along, and it's taught our children
03:37that if they don't conform to what are these stereotypes,
03:40that they might be transgender, that they might have been born in the wrong body,
03:45and that the solution for them is to go on drugs that have never been approved for this purpose.
03:51We are giving children chemical castration drugs
03:54that are used to this day on sex offenders.
03:59They're given to pedophiles.
04:01In certain states, and even in Canada,
04:03they have been required for pedophiles to be eligible for parole,
04:08that they receive these chemical castration drugs.
04:11The same drug is now called a puberty blocker.
04:15What are these drugs?
04:16These are gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs.
04:19They stop the pituitary gland from releasing a couple hormones
04:22called luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone.
04:26And these are what are responsible for the generation of your sex hormones at the onset of puberty.
04:32Girls develop estrogen.
04:34Boys produce testosterone.
04:36And this is what causes us to generate what are known as our secondary sex characteristics.
04:45All the things that happen during puberty.
04:47Boys get stronger.
04:48They get a deeper voice.
04:49They get a hairy face, hairy body.
04:52Girls develop their breasts.
04:54Their hips get wider.
04:54While children are on these drugs,
04:58none of these secondary sex characteristics will develop.
05:01The idea being that we need to keep these children looking neutral.
05:07Because if we don't, they will develop into a man or a woman.
05:11And that will make it harder for them to pass as the opposite sex when they're an adult.
05:18So, I don't want you to take my word for anything here.
05:24We're going to go over a few of the videos that these doctors at these gender clinics have produced.
05:29So, first, let's hear from...
05:31This is Dr. Jeremy Carswell.
05:34She is at the gender clinic at Boston Children's Hospital.
05:41She's the director of their gender multi-specialty clinic.
05:44This was the first gender clinic that opened in the United States of America back in 2007.
05:49And she's going to talk about really what it is to be transgender.
05:55A child will often know that they are transgender from the moment that they have any ability to express themselves.
06:01And parents will often tell us this.
06:03We have parents who tell us that their kids, they knew from the minute they were born practically.
06:07And actions like refusing to get a haircut or standing to urinate, trying to stand to urinate, refusing to stand to urinate, trying on siblings' clothing, playing with the, quote, opposite gender toys, things like that.
06:23There is more and more a group of adolescents that we are seeing that really are coming to the realization that they might be trans or gender diverse a little bit later on in their life.
06:32So what we're seeing from them is that they always sort of knew something was maybe off and didn't have the understanding to know that they might be trans or have a different gender identity than the one they had been assigned.
06:43So that is a growing population that we are seeing and that's being recognized as being trans and able to be treated.
06:53So if you have a child playing with the opposite gender toys, they might be trans and eligible to be treated.
07:03If a little girl tries to pee standing up or a boy tries to pee sitting down, they might be transgender.
07:11Guess what?
07:12If a little girl has three big brothers, she's going to try to pee standing up because they're all peeing standing up and it looks kind of fun.
07:21They're kids.
07:23She said if they're trying on a sibling's clothing, they might be transgender.
07:27Again, a little boy with three big sisters, they're all going to be playing dress up with their little baby brother.
07:36But these doctors come along who have bought into this ideology and they teach that this natural play is a sign that your child is transgender and can be treated.
07:47And guess what?
07:49They're seeing patients as young as three years old where they start socially transitioning them with a new name and pronouns.
07:56I don't want you to take just her word for it either.
08:02Here's another doctor at the same hospital.
08:04So most of the patients that we have in the GEMS clinic actually know their gender, usually around the age of puberty.
08:10But a good portion of children do know as early as seemingly from the womb.
08:14And they will usually...
08:16That's enough from her.
08:18Seemingly from the womb.
08:19I recorded these videos a few years ago, back in 2022.
08:29And this next one is the one that I had first tweeted out and it started to go viral.
08:34And what happened was Boston Children's Hospital took all of their videos down off of their YouTube channel.
08:40But not before I had recorded about 40 of them.
08:44And this next one is a sign of the insanity that is going on in these gender clinics.
08:49And I know that these are from America.
08:52But please keep in mind that all of these gender clinics follow the same standards of care.
08:57Written by a falsely scientific body.
09:00It's just an activist body.
09:01But it's called the World Professional Association for Transgender Health.
09:04And they're currently on their 8th recommendation of what are known as the standards of care.
09:11And this is what they're doing with these young people.
09:13Gender-affirming hysterectomy is very similar to most hysterectomies that occur.
09:18A hysterectomy itself is the removal of the uterus, the cervix, which is the opening of the uterus.
09:23And the fallopian tubes, which are attached to the sides of the uterus.
09:27Some gender-affirming hysterectomies will also include the removal of the ovaries.
09:30But that's technically a separate procedure called a bilateral oophrectomy.
09:34And not every gender-affirming hysterectomy includes that.
09:37And people who are getting gender-affirming hysterectomies do not have to have their ovaries removed.
09:45If you put perky music and a smiling woman, I guess you can even try to justify gender-affirming hysterectomies at a children's hospital.
09:57What is being done is they are sending teenage girls into menopause.
10:04Which has a hundred side effects of its own.
10:06And they call this love.
10:09And we're supposed to be quiet about it.
10:13Because they've conflated gender identity with being gay.
10:17They put these letters together.
10:202S even, for two-spirit.
10:22But 2SLGBTQIA+.
10:25All of these different letters representing different cohorts.
10:29And they pretend it's one big community.
10:31And they use this to silence people who dare to object to any of this.
10:37But this is child abuse.
10:38Again, based on this notion that there's a right way to be as a boy or a girl.
10:46Now, in history, this used to be called something called gender identity disorder.
10:54That term was coined in 1964 by a man named Robert Stoller, who was a professor of psychiatry at UCLA.
11:02Anyway, he viewed this as a disorder.
11:05And this was almost all little boys that this used to affect.
11:09And they wanted these little boys to grow up and be more masculine.
11:13These were boys who were effeminate.
11:15Who they should have just left alone.
11:17But instead they were deemed to have a disorder.
11:19And the man who coined the term gender identity, his advice was that these little boys shouldn't spend as much quality time with their mothers.
11:30You can look it up.
11:31Because that might feminize them more.
11:33They should have more time with their fathers.
11:37Going back even earlier than this, this goes to the Weimar Republic.
11:41To pre-World War II era in Berlin.
11:44When a doctor, Magnus Hirschfeld is his name, he had ended up opening up this Institute for Sexual Science.
11:56And he was friends with another man named Harry Benjamin.
12:00And they performed the first ever surgeries trying to turn men into women, which of course is impossible.
12:06But they actually transplanted a uterus into a man at this clinic in Berlin.
12:14The doctor who performed that surgery, his name is Erwin Gorbant.
12:19He later was a member of the Luftwaffe.
12:22And he helped design freezing water experiments on Jews at the Dachau concentration camp.
12:29But Harry Benjamin was friends with this original researcher.
12:34And Harry Benjamin went on to form the Harry Benjamin Foundation.
12:38Which today, it was renamed in the 90s.
12:43It's now what's known as the World Professional Association for Transgender Health.
12:48And this is just an activist body pushing ideology.
12:52Because the truth of the matter is, we don't have gender identities.
12:55We have personalities.
12:58And you don't have to be like everyone else in your class.
13:00You don't have to be like the other boys.
13:02If you're a boy who's not rough and tumble, who doesn't want to play sports, and maybe you're more sensitive, that's okay.
13:09You're still a boy.
13:12But this message we are sending to our children is that they have a brain detached from their biological reality, from their genitalia.
13:21Which is completely and utterly false.
13:23It's been debunked.
13:24There's no evidence to support this whatsoever.
13:26But this ideology was dreamed up by a few individuals.
13:31And then in the 70s, Professor Paul McHugh at Johns Hopkins University, which was one of the leading universities pushing this through a doctor called John Money.
13:42Now, Dr. John Money was looking into disorders of sexual development.
13:47These are what activists today would call intersex disorders.
13:51But nobody is intersex.
13:53Nobody is between sexes.
13:55Nobody is a third sex.
13:57There are people who are born with some disorders.
14:00These are a variety of medical conditions.
14:03The term intersex is an umbrella term for a variety of disorders of sexual development.
14:08All of whom affect males or females.
14:12Now, trans activists will try to use this to get you caught up in this discussion.
14:18As though they're not all male or female.
14:21It's really a diversionary tactic, which we should largely ignore.
14:24It makes sense to understand a little bit about this.
14:27But on the subject of gender identity, it's got nothing to do with that.
14:31Gender identity is teaching that people have a gender, a circular definition, that they have a gender that might be different than their sex.
14:41Well, what is gender?
14:43We should always be able to define these terms.
14:48And what is gender?
14:52Leftist university professors have redefined this term.
14:57For the longest time, we all used it as a synonym for sex.
15:01Perhaps a more polite word.
15:03But today, it means something else entirely.
15:06It just means a feeling.
15:09Your gender, according to feminist scholars in universities, is whatever you feel it to be.
15:18But this, of course, is not true.
15:24There is such a thing as reality in the world.
15:27And when we become unhinged from reality, all sorts of bad things happen.
15:31And where we had this small cohort of mostly men wanting to identify as women, what's happened in the last 15 years in particular is perhaps to buy legitimacy for their own issues.
15:48And what used to affect maybe one out of 30,000 boys, 30, 40 years ago, if you look at the statistics, gender identity disorder, affected just a tiny handful of the population.
16:05This has now exploded.
16:07It's a social contagion spread primarily via social media, but from peer to peer and through schools.
16:13And it's a social contagion primarily affecting girls, as all social contagions do.
16:20It's always the girls that these social contagions really come for.
16:25And so when we look at these kids at these gender clinics, we find that on average, and this is according to the Tavistock's own data, the Tavistock was the gender clinic in the UK seeing all of the children.
16:41And Dr. Hilary Cass, an eminent pediatrician, conducted a review, a systematic review, the gold standard in medicine.
16:51It's a 388-page report.
16:53I encourage everyone to at least read the summary.
16:57But that report, after several years, found that there was no evidence of psychological improvement for any of these kids receiving these drugs and hormones and surgeries.
17:09The evidence is scant.
17:12It's non-existent, or it's extremely low quality.
17:17There was a systematic review done in Sweden.
17:19It found the same results.
17:21The most thorough review done to date was done this year by the HHS, Department of Health and Human Services in the United States.
17:28And it's peer-reviewed.
17:32Even the Washington Post said that it was a very balanced report.
17:36There's no arguing with these reports.
17:38They've gone over all of the peer-reviewed journals, all of the studies, and they've all come to the same conclusion, that there's no evidence this is helping kids.
17:48So if it's not helping kids, what are we doing sterilizing kids?
17:51These children, according to the Tavistock in the UK, 70% of these kids had five or more coexisting mental health comorbidities.
18:08They didn't just have one or two other problems.
18:10They had five or more.
18:11They have autism in likely a majority of cases.
18:18I want to say a strong majority for the more mild cases.
18:22But we know from the Tavistock that 35% of their patients, out of a sample of 1,069 kids, 35% had moderate to severe autism.
18:32These are kids who have suffered sexual abuse in a majority of cases.
18:36The president of the American College of Pediatricians tells me, personally, that he estimates it's about 60% of the kids have had sexual abuse.
18:46Anecdotally, if you read the stories of these people, I would say it's even higher, especially if you listen to the stories of detransitioners.
18:54These are kids with eating disorders, borderline personality disorder.
18:57Oftentimes, according to one older study, 52% of the mothers of these boys had borderline personality disorder themselves, compared to just 6% of the general population.
19:12Isn't that interesting?
19:14If this is something that's innate, why is it that more than half of the mothers had borderline personality disorder?
19:21Because it's not innate.
19:25This didn't exist when I was a child.
19:27There weren't children going around thinking they were born in the wrong body.
19:33Tomboys were just tomboys.
19:34That was great.
19:36They should be celebrated.
19:37You should be celebrated for who you are.
19:39Not told you're supposed to be something you're not.
19:42Now, this next video is a young woman I ran into at UCLA, the University of California in Los Angeles.
19:50Her name is Clementine.
19:51This is a six-minute-long video, and she's going to tell us her story.
19:54I randomly ran into her here.
19:57Yeah, come on in.
19:58My name is Clementine.
19:59My name is Clementine.
20:00What's your name?
20:01My name is Clementine.
20:01Nice to meet you.
20:02I've actually seen your stuff online, and I'm a huge fan.
20:05I was on puberty blockers.
20:07I started when I was 12, and I was on testosterone from 14 to 17, and I got top surgery at 17.
20:14Totally messed my life up.
20:16So I just want to say you're doing a good thing.
20:17Wow.
20:18I can't believe people disagree with you on this.
20:20As a former child transitioner, I'm just appalled that people have anything to question you about.
20:25So I salute you.
20:27Well, I'm so sorry you had to go through all that.
20:30I'm glad you are through it now.
20:32Thank you so much for speaking up.
20:35That's extremely valuable because a lot of people are afraid to.
20:38Yeah.
20:38So do you mind if we have a little conversation about it?
20:41Of course.
20:41Yeah.
20:41Okay.
20:42Come on in this way just a little bit.
20:43Oh, yeah, for sure.
20:44Hi.
20:44So your name again?
20:45My name is Clementine.
20:47Clementine.
20:47So Clementine went on puberty blockers at what age?
20:5012.
20:51And you detransitioned at?
20:53I detransitioned earlier this year, actually, but I've been going off testosterone since about
20:5717 because it gave me psychosis.
21:00When did they put you on testosterone?
21:02I was 13.
21:03Wow.
21:04And when did you have a double mastectomy?
21:08I had a double mastectomy at 14.
21:12I'm currently going through the process of getting reconstructive surgery, and it was
21:17harder to get that approved.
21:19I actually wasn't able to get it approved by my insurance.
21:21Right.
21:22But it was much harder to get surgery for that than it was to actually get the original
21:26top surgery procedure.
21:28For everyone watching this who says this isn't happening, well, it happened to Clementine.
21:33At 14, a double mastectomy, puberty blockers at 12, testosterone at 13.
21:37How old are you now?
21:38I'm 20 now.
21:39I just turned 20.
21:41Have you ever talked to anyone about suing?
21:43I can't disclose what's going on, but yeah, it's...
21:47Okay.
21:48Because I'm here to help you find someone if you need someone.
21:50Yeah.
21:51I've spoken...
21:52Do you know Campbell Miller Payne?
21:53I do.
21:54Yeah.
21:55I've talked to them a bunch.
21:56Fantastic.
21:57So, Campbell Miller Payne is a law firm for dads in Texas who all left their previous
22:02law firms and started a new one just to sue for kids and young people like Clementine
22:07who've been harmed by this madness.
22:11And these are great guys.
22:12They could have done anything to make a bunch of money, but they started a law firm.
22:15They left all their previous firms.
22:16They have 18 kids between them.
22:18And they're going to cause a lot of waves.
22:20I know some good lawsuits coming too, which we aren't allowed to announce yet.
22:23Yeah.
22:23I really hope so.
22:24But that's one of the way out of this mess we've gotten into.
22:28I don't know how a child could consent to the loss of their fertility.
22:32Yeah.
22:32Children can't conceptualize that, and I think people don't understand that.
22:36So, what got you into this in the first place?
22:39I was sexually abused as a child, and that was totally ignored.
22:42But I started having a lot of negative feelings about my body around puberty, and I was egged
22:50on by some guidance counselors that I might be transgender, and I later decided that I
22:54was really a boy and my life would be so much easier because of all this abuse that I had
22:59experienced because of being a woman, and I totally just rejected womanhood because I
23:02thought that all that it meant for me was pain.
23:07Yeah.
23:08That's kind of how I got there, but getting out of it, yeah.
23:12Getting out of it was a really difficult process for me, but mostly it was just getting
23:17the right therapy.
23:18I went to DBT therapy, and we never discussed my gender.
23:22We only discussed my sexual abuse, and after I dealt with that, I realized I didn't want
23:29to do this anymore, and the loss of my fertility and my body just started to really sink in,
23:34and I realized, like, oh my God, I built this entire persona around misogyny.
23:41Do you know for sure that you've lost your fertility?
23:44I'm not 100% sure, but I'm not the most hopeful.
23:47But you were on testosterone for four years.
23:48I'm not the most hopeful.
23:49I never went through female puberty, so yeah.
23:51Right.
23:52I'm so sorry, but thank you so much for speaking up.
23:55It's extremely brave.
23:56Thank you for speaking to me.
23:57It's extremely powerful.
23:58I'm so sorry what was done to you, but this is going to help other people not to fall
24:03down this rabbit hole.
24:04I'm so glad you're doing what you do.
24:05Keep going.
24:06One last question, and just come in a little bit.
24:08Yeah, of course.
24:09Before you started on the puberty blockers, you've just shared with me this sexual abuse
24:14that happened to you before you started on those?
24:16Yeah.
24:17Did anyone ask you about that?
24:18No.
24:19Not was that brought up once during the meeting.
24:21I was only asked, do I like hanging out with boys?
24:23Do I get fit in better with boys?
24:25What kind of things am I into?
24:26Just really surface level questions, and I was prescribed puberty blockers 30 minutes
24:31into my appointment after being out for four months.
24:34First appointment.
24:35Yes.
24:36With?
24:37Dr. Joanna Olson Kennedy at Los Angeles Children's Hospital.
24:42Joanna Olson Kennedy.
24:43I've talked a lot about her, and I'm going to put more about her underneath this video.
24:49She's running the busiest gender clinic in the country at Children's Hospital of Los
24:53Angeles.
24:54She received a grant from the NIH a few years ago for $5.7 million, and part of that grant
24:59application, she asked for approval to give opposite sex hormones to kids as young as eight
25:03as old.
25:04She is one of the biggest, if not the biggest gender ghoul in the United States of America.
25:10Did she talk to your parents?
25:12She did, and she told them the same thing that she tells everybody, that I was deeply suicidal,
25:16and that if they didn't let me transition, I would be at high risk for suicide.
25:22And I only attempted to kill myself after I transitioned.
25:25So she convinced them that they had two options, a dead daughter or a live son?
25:29Yes.
25:30Did she even use those words?
25:31She did use those exact words.
25:33Wow.
25:34Give me a hug.
25:35Thank you for talking to me.
25:36Thank you for talking to me.
25:37Have a very nice day.
25:38God bless you.
25:39All right.
25:40I'll see you later.
25:41I'll see you later.
25:42It's a standard story.
25:48Listen to any of the detransitioners' testimonies.
25:51They're all like that.
25:53And it's not just America.
25:54It's where I'm from, Canada.
25:56It's Europe.
25:57It's Australia.
25:59It's all of these Western nations pushing this because they all follow the WPATH standards of care.
26:08And in this most recent edition of the WPATH standards of care, being a eunuch is a gender identity.
26:16Being a eunuch.
26:18If you're a young man and you feel like on the inside you're a eunuch, they will do surgery to make you one.
26:27If you feel you are non-binary, meaning neither sex, and you want what is called a nullification procedure, male or female, they will cut off your sexual organs.
26:40They'll do a hysterectomy to give you like a Barbie look.
26:47This is not science.
26:49This is mad science.
26:51This is Frankenstein science.
26:53She's sterilized.
26:57She can never have kids.
26:59And she's just 20 years old.
27:00Just turned 20.
27:01Her life hasn't even barely begun.
27:05And the most valuable thing was taken from her.
27:08Her chance to have a family of her own.
27:10And this has been done to thousands of kids.
27:13And it's being done to thousands of kids today.
27:16And it's being done largely in an environment of silence.
27:19Because people are too afraid to talk about it.
27:22Why?
27:28They're sterilizing autistic children and a lot of girls and boys who've been sexually abused.
27:37We shouldn't be quiet about it.
27:39We should all be yelling from the rafters.
27:41I quit my job.
27:44Not the most normal thing to do.
27:45I quit my job to stand on the street wearing a sign because I didn't know what else to do.
27:50I had actually put up a billboard in my city of Vancouver that said I love JK Rowling.
27:58Because she's spoken out about this.
28:00And she's spoken up for women, of course.
28:02And they took it down after a day because a Vancouver politician said it was hate speech.
28:08It had a big red heart on it.
28:10So then I did a whole bunch more in the United States.
28:15And then in Canada where I was stuck.
28:17It was during COVID.
28:18We couldn't even leave the country.
28:19I said, well, you can take down my billboard, but you can't take one off my back.
28:22And I had some signs made.
28:24And I know I look silly, but for some reason I get respect.
28:27And I traveled across the country and then across America and now the world.
28:32And I just keep going one conversation at a time because I have faith in my fellow man.
28:37I have faith in you that you're going to learn things here today and take this forward with you and start more conversations.
28:46And let's look what's been done in Europe.
28:48So in England, thanks to the CAS review, they stopped giving kids puberty blockers.
28:54They didn't stop doing the cross-sex hormones, although it's been reduced.
28:57Scotland went even further and they stopped the cross-sex hormones.
29:01Although now they're going kind of backwards in England, in the UK, and they want to do a clinical trial.
29:07They have 20 years worth of data, but they want to do a new two-year trial.
29:11It won't have any long-term information.
29:13So people are in the process of suing to try to stop this because it's madness.
29:20But in Finland, they were the first to break ranks with this.
29:23They stopped it there.
29:26Sweden stopped it, basically.
29:28It's still done in a few exceptional cases.
29:30Norway and Denmark pretty much followed suit.
29:33New Zealand just this last month announced that they are following the CAS review, so they've stopped it.
29:3728 states in the United States have stopped it.
29:41You've got 50 different states there, each with their own health departments, so you have to stop it in each jurisdiction.
29:47But in even some of the Democrat states, the gender clinics are shutting down.
29:52The woman, Johanna Olson-Kennedy, who transitioned young Clementine there, her gender clinic at the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles was shut down because the Trump administration was pulling funding.
30:06But here on the continent of Europe, there hasn't been a ton of progress.
30:12And the leaders of society are still too hesitant to talk about this, and I get it.
30:17Until you understand how to speak about this, it can be an awkward thing to speak about.
30:21And when you know that activists are going to come and they're going to try to demonize you, I suppose that can be a bit scary for most people.
30:29I just lean into it. They can say whatever they want about me. It doesn't matter.
30:33I know who I am. My family knows who I am.
30:35And I think everyone who's ever heard me speak has an idea that this is all evidence-based and we're trying to protect kids here.
30:41But again, this all goes back to the initial lie.
30:44And it is a lie.
30:46It's a lie that we have a gender identity. We don't.
30:49There's no such thing as a transgender child.
30:52They're called boys and girls.
30:54And they're perfect just as they are.
30:56If they want to do something to their body as an adult, that's a different conversation.
30:59The doctors should still be following the Hippocratic Oath, which is first due no harm.
31:05They should be screening for trauma. They should be screening for abuse.
31:08They should be treating mental health problems with mental health solutions, not just taking money and getting out the scalpel.
31:17Now, this next video, that is on the right side of the screen.
31:26That is a male named Marcy Bowers. That's a man.
31:30The woman in the center is Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy.
31:34This was a leaked video.
31:36This was an internal video conference they were having.
31:39And they're discussing the ability of boys who started puberty blockers at Tanner Stage 2.
31:46Tanner Stage 2 is the beginning of puberty.
31:49This is when he first developed pubic hair.
31:51It's when girls' breast buds first start to form.
31:54So these kids are all 10, 11, 12 years old.
31:58And that's when they start them on these drugs.
32:01Again, these drugs have never been approved for this purpose.
32:03These are prostate cancer drugs.
32:05These are drugs for endometriosis, for uterine fibroids.
32:11But they happen to stop puberty.
32:14So they're discussing how it's destroying the future sexual function of all these boys.
32:19They admit to this.
32:20And I want you to hear it from them.
32:22The second was an observation that I had that every single child or adolescent who was truly blocked at Tanner Stage 2 has never experienced orgasm.
32:36I mean, it's really about zero.
32:39Of course, these are just assigned male at birth.
32:41So trans, feminine, and it's because they never in their lives are exposed to testosterone.
32:48That doesn't change.
32:50That doesn't change.
32:51So blockers prevent the rise of testosterone and they don't really go on testosterone at or around surgery or into adulthood.
32:59And so we don't know.
33:01They're going to have this sensation.
33:03There's no question about that.
33:05But are they going to be able to achieve sexual satisfaction?
33:11It's important in relationships.
33:13And I know that from my work with female genital mutilation survivors that the lack of being able to be intimate with a partner is very important.
33:22And so this is what really raised the red flag for me is to say, look, we're going to really, we need to have our eyes open about it.
33:29I think it's been beneficial talking about it.
33:32I know Joe and many others have reported to me, you know, they've, they've, they have looked, they've changed their approach a little bit in their informed consent models and that they're, we're talking about masturbation now we're talking about.
33:46Okay, that's an area of the body that's got very dysphoric for you, but you know what, it's all a penis is just a large clitoris.
33:55I mean, let's, we're all, it's all the same material.
33:58It really is.
33:59So, so, you know, use it for, for, for the pleasurable purposes, partially that it was intended.
34:08And, you know, we'll see what happens, but these are, these are to be answered questions.
34:15So can we avoid puberty and get good adult results?
34:19And secondly, how do we, how do we assure someone that they're going to be able to be sexually responsive?
34:28Do we remove the blockers during the course of their adolescence and let a little bit of puberty come back?
34:34Do we delay it a little bit, maybe into Tanner's three or four, maybe before they have their first orgasms, maybe?
34:41I apologize for the graphic nature of this.
34:44It's important to understand.
34:46That's the president of WPATH.
34:50That all the countries that you represent, they write the standards of care.
34:56All the countries, gender clinics, all follow their standards of care.
35:01The UN pushes their standards of care.
35:04The WHO pushes their standards of care.
35:06That's the president.
35:09And what's he saying there?
35:12He's saying, what do we do?
35:15Do we let a little bit of puberty happen?
35:19Do we take them off the blockers, let a little puberty happen?
35:21Do we delay the puberty blockers?
35:22They don't know what they're doing.
35:27They don't know.
35:28He admits it.
35:30This is an experiment on children.
35:34The most vulnerable children among our society.
35:38The kids who've had terrible upbringings.
35:41I ran into a young man on the streets of Vancouver last week.
35:45I have this video up.
35:46You can go to my YouTube channel.
35:48He was sexually abused when he was five.
35:51He was raised by Wiccans, occultists, Satanists.
35:57His memory is foggy.
36:00He has a memory of his mom taking him into some other room and crying after this sexual abuse at five.
36:07He remembers satanic symbols, pentagrams.
36:10He ended up being taken into state care when he was eight years old.
36:15He was in 14 different foster homes, three group homes during his adolescence.
36:20And in one of these foster homes, he started growing his hair long.
36:25And some people said that he looked pretty.
36:28And maybe that meant he was really a girl.
36:32And so for over 20 years of his life, he identified as transgender.
36:38This was a deeply abused little boy.
36:45These are the types of cases of these young children who are being harmed.
36:50They're not all that extreme.
36:53But there's always, as I mentioned, 70% of the time, there's five or more coexisting mental health comorbidities.
36:59So is it the autism, is it the sexual abuse, or is it trans?
37:02Trans, a term that we can't even define.
37:05It means their gender identity doesn't match their sex assigned at birth.
37:11That's what the activists might tell you.
37:13Well, what's gender identity?
37:14The first slide I talked about today, what's gender identity?
37:19It is, well, it's your personality, it's your job, hobbies, likes, dislikes, roles in society, and expectations upon you.
37:26That's how they define it.
37:28Sexist, regressive, nonsense.
37:32So, what happened in...
37:38We don't have too much time.
37:40These are some more videos from these people.
37:42I'm not going to get into them all.
37:44I think...
37:46These are internal documents that were leaked.
37:50These are known as the WPATH files.
37:53If you go to my website, wespeaktruth.com, go to resources, you'll find these documents.
37:58You'll find the CAS review.
37:59You'll find the HHS review.
38:02But this, again, is the president saying that the fertility question has no research that I'm aware of.
38:09As puberty onset allows for fertility options, if they allow puberty to begin,
38:15they can perhaps harvest sperm and eggs, which they can use later on to perhaps have success with fertilization.
38:26But he says puberty onset allows for fertility options, while blockers preclude those opportunities.
38:33He's admitting that they're sterilizing kids.
38:35He repeats again here in writing,
38:37I'm unaware of an individual claiming ability to orgasm when they were blocked at ten or stage two.
38:42What 12-year-old boy can consent to throwing away his future adult sexual function?
38:47Of course, none of them.
38:48This is why the main sign I wear always says children cannot consent to puberty blockers.
38:53And those videos I just quickly went past, they admit to that in those videos.
38:58I'm happy to send you anything you need to know in the future.
39:01So this is another doctor admitting that, so this is a female they're talking about.
39:09She was on testosterone, T, for eight to ten years.
39:13And she developed hepatocarcinomas, liver cancer.
39:16To the best of my knowledge, it was linked to her hormonal treatment.
39:21I'm not going to use the wrong pronouns.
39:23I'm going to use pronouns that describe someone's sex, just so you know.
39:27She was a midlife.
39:28Unfortunately, I don't have many more details since it was so advanced that she opted for palliative care and died a couple months later.
39:40This is a 13-year-old that wants testosterone.
39:45And of course, she also has an eating disorder.
39:48This is very common, eating disorders.
39:52This is another doctor saying trauma.
39:54Trauma is common among trans clients.
39:57I was surprised to find several of my clients met criteria for dissociative disorders.
40:04So this is what used to be called multiple personality disorder.
40:08These are people who've had severe trauma, oftentimes sexual abuse at a young age.
40:17And it goes on to say here, this doctor goes on to say,
40:21I was wondering if there's been any difficulty with the system agreeing to transitioning medically.
40:26Especially given that not all the alters have the same gender identity.
40:32Not all the alternate personalities have the same gender identity.
40:38Insane.
40:39And they're transitioning these people.
40:48This one.
40:49Someone can have schizophrenia and be ready for surgery.
40:54It's just a matter of what you see concerns are.
40:57So it doesn't matter what's wrong with these kids.
41:04They're transitioning them.
41:06The start of this in the modern era, it's known as the Dutch protocol.
41:20And this started in the late 90s in Amsterdam.
41:27And it started at first with one girl who had severe distress about her sex.
41:33And so for the first time she was given this prostate cancer drug.
41:39These puberty blocking drugs.
41:44And they ended up conducting a trial with 70 children in total in the first decade of this century.
41:51That trial has never been able to be replicated.
41:53There's all sorts of problems with its methodology.
41:55You can read about it later.
41:57But from the Dutch was born what's known as the Dutch protocol.
42:01And their rules were they wouldn't get puberty blockers until 12 years of age.
42:05Assuming the child had hit 10 or stage 2.
42:08And they wouldn't start the cross-sex hormones until 16.
42:11And they would screen for these other comorbid factors.
42:16Other mental health issues.
42:18That's all gone out the window.
42:20There's no...
42:24There are no safeguards in place anymore.
42:27In fact, to even suggest that a child needs therapy is frowned upon.
42:31Because that's deemed to be questioning a child's gender identity.
42:35Why would you need therapy for your gender identity?
42:39When your gender identity is just a natural part of your human existence.
42:42This is the thinking.
42:44And about three years ago at the WPATH conference held in Montreal.
42:48During the opening speech some protesters got up.
42:51And they were calling for the total abolition of all therapy.
42:55That sounds crazy.
42:57What response did they get?
42:58A standing ovation.
43:00Because over the years what's happened is this isn't a mental health problem anymore.
43:06They even don't call it a disorder.
43:08In 2013 in the DSM-5 it went from gender identity disorder to gender dysphoria.
43:15Now they just call it gender incongruence.
43:18And if a child says...
43:23If a little girl says she's a boy.
43:24If a boy says he's a girl.
43:25They say wonderful.
43:27We're so glad you figured out your gender identity.
43:31And they start them on this treadmill of medicalization.
43:34Historically...
43:36This is going to be one of the last things I'll discuss.
43:39Historically when you look at the academic studies into gender dysphoria before they started drugging these kids.
43:48And I have all of these major studies that were done.
43:51The numbers in these studies aren't huge because this was such a small problem.
43:55But the largest study had 139 participants.
44:00And they followed them from a young age.
44:02Four or five years old.
44:03All the way into their twenties.
44:0587.8%.
44:07This study was all boys.
44:0987.8% of them grew out of it.
44:12Their gender dysphoria desisted when they went through puberty.
44:17And all the studies show similar numbers.
44:20Puberty is the cure for gender dysphoria.
44:25Gender distress.
44:26Now we block the cure.
44:29Now we don't let these kids grow up.
44:34And a majority of those kids, according to all those studies, grew up to be gay.
44:40Makes a bit of sense when you think about it.
44:43We're talking really effeminate little boys.
44:46With distress about being a boy.
44:49Yes, some of them grew up to be gay.
44:51And from the Tavistock in England.
44:53From all the most current studies.
44:55We see similar numbers.
44:58That a majority of these children would grow up to be same sex attracted.
45:05So what is it?
45:06I don't call kids gay or trans.
45:08No one.
45:09I don't call any kid trans.
45:10I don't call kids gay.
45:11We shouldn't assign sexual orientation to children.
45:13Let's just let them be children.
45:14Let's just let them be children.
45:16But are these individuals, are they gay or are they trans?
45:22This is a homophobic movement.
45:24This is taking individuals who would grow up to be gay.
45:27And it's telling them there's something wrong with them.
45:29They need to change their bodies.
45:31It's the most homophobic movement.
45:33In Iran, ten years ago, on the women's national soccer team, there were eight men.
45:39Because it's illegal to be gay in Iran.
45:43But because of the first Ayatollah, he issued a fatwa.
45:47There's a story behind this.
45:48You can go read it.
45:50It's okay to be trans.
45:52So the gay men in Iran, if they want to stay alive or stay out of prison, they transition.
45:57And Iran is the number two country in the world for sex reassignment surgeries behind Thailand.
46:04It's the only Muslim nation that does that.
46:08But yes, this is a homophobic movement as well.
46:11So we have Finland.
46:13They were the first to break with the WPATH standards of care.
46:16Sweden followed.
46:19The UK followed with the CAS review.
46:22The HHS review in the United States is the most thorough review to date.
46:26It contains a section on the ethics of this whole thing.
46:29And so we're making progress.
46:33Twenty-eight states have stopped this.
46:35And I'm going to close with one two-minute video of another young detransitioner woman.
46:42Because, again, you need to hear it from them.
46:47I can't believe this happened.
46:51I ruined my life.
46:55But when you break it down, I decided that I didn't want to be a woman before I had ever even experienced being a woman.
47:04I had no idea what being a woman was like because I was a child.
47:08And now I feel like I will never entirely know.
47:17I want to say that I really feel like some people in the trans community and the trans medicalists and the doctors really, really target the most vulnerable of us.
47:31I have borderline personality disorder and I know for a fact that this is the reason for my transition.
47:40It's a very difficult mental illness and one of the core features is not having any sense of self or identity.
47:52And my doctors knew this.
47:57I told them, even though they didn't ask, that I had been diagnosed with BPD.
48:05And it was all fine to them.
48:08I wasn't happy as a girl.
48:10So that meant I was a boy and I was trans.
48:13And so I just took the cure that was handed to me.
48:24I was told that I was being given a cure and I wouldn't want to kill myself anymore.
48:35And it wasn't true.
48:40I didn't want to cry in this video, but this is such a hard thing to talk about.
48:47I lost a lot of things to this.
48:53And I just hope that anyone else who's going through what I went through as a young girl will not be prescribed hormones and surgery because of other things.
49:10Um, you know, there are so many mental health disorders that make you hate your body.
49:16And the solution isn't to change your body, it's to fix your brain, you know?
49:21Um, I just don't want anyone else to ever feel this way.
49:25I lost my voice. I lost my chest.
49:28I don't know if I'm going to be able to have kids.
49:32Um, I feel like no one wants to date me or love me because I'm ruined.
49:43It's child abuse, pure and simple.
49:52And it's up to us to stop it.
49:55There's no one else that's going to stop it. It's up to us.
49:58So if we have to get a little bit uncomfortable to start these conversations, we need to start them because all the evidence is on our side.
50:04The really, really the only argument that the left ever has, and I say the left, it's really predominantly the left pushing this everywhere.
50:13But the activists, let's say.
50:15Their only argument, they'll say that kids are going to kill themselves if you don't transition them.
50:18Because the only way you can justify this sort of abuse is to say that kids will die if you don't do it.
50:22But there's no evidence for that either.
50:24Both of these testimonies, they said they were suicidal after.
50:27The only study that's been done was out of Finland where they looked at 24 years worth of data at their gender clinic from 1996 to 2019.
50:352,000 kids, more than 2,000 kids went through the gender clinic.
50:38They didn't all get medicalized.
50:40And they compared them to a sample group of 17,000 kids.
50:44Over the 24 years, sorry, there were seven suicides.
50:51It worked out to an annualized rate of .052.
50:56And, of course, every suicide is a tragedy.
50:58There were 17 suicides in the sample group.
51:01So the rate of suicide was slightly higher.
51:04But this is no epidemic of suicides.
51:06And the common denominator wasn't gender.
51:08It was other psychiatric comorbidities.
51:10And the only way they could really reliably determine who was at risk of suicide was more than 100 psychiatric visits.
51:20So we just can't let them use these arguments to try to silence us because there's no truth to any of it.
51:27The truth is that our children are precious and beautiful just as they are.
51:30And we're harming them.
51:32First of all, with this ideology, it's psychologically harming them.
51:35And the physical harm being done to them is inexcusable.
51:38So thank you so much for coming today.
51:40Appreciate it.
