Liberal Feminist Mother Warns Transgender Activists Are Taking Control of Mental Health Profession

A mother of a gender-dysphoric teen warns transgender activists are succeeding at banning traditional counseling with children.

“I quickly discovered that it is nearly impossible to find therapists who do this kind of work,” wrote the anonymous mother in a piece that appeared at the Federalist Tuesday. “If a girl presents as transgender today, the vast majority of therapists will immediately affirm the girl’s declared gender identity and ask her what steps she would like to take toward transition.”

Currently, transgender activists are celebrating their success in pressing lawmakers in 16 states and the District of Columbia to ban what they call “conversion therapy.” These political supporters of gender ideology claim therapists who do not immediately affirm the perception of young people claiming to be a gender that is incompatible with their biological sex are “harmful” and “abusive” and must be outlawed.


As the anonymous Federalist writer discovered, most mental health professionals from the states in which “conversion therapy” is now banned will not be willing to help a child explore his or her feelings or perceptions about sexual identity.

16. Let that sink in. 16 states and Evil DC.

Sheesh. So much for procreation. Liberals will be happy with the chaos. I have a story. My dot’s neighbors across the street.; dot moved in 2014. One works for MSNBC, and the other writes novels. The neighbors have 2 dot’s in HS. Long story short, dot saw on FB that the neighbors have shouted out that one of their dot’s is, now, transgendered, and named Jack. At least dot understands, now, that she was seeing a boy that she didn’t know lived there. That’s all.

IMO Mental health specialists need to be treated for their own mental health.

When born you is what you is. Gender dysphoria is a boatload of BS.

Mental health professionals (and I use that term loosely) got into the field to understand their own mental health. For some reason, we seem to think that that, and some secondary and post-secondary brainwashing qualifies them to treat others.
