GENDER IDEOLOGY: THE WORST MEDICAL SCANDAL IN AUSTRALIA’S HISTORY

Article by Kirralie Smith: Republished with thanks to Binary.

Australian media and a small handful of politicians are finally shedding light on the appalling consequences of self-identification laws and gender ideology.

Binary has been at the coalface for the better part of a decade sounding the alarm. It has played a crucial role in the fact that some are finally starting to take note.

Anna Cody, the Sex Discrimination Commissioner, was embarrassed at Senate Estimates for not being able to define sex, one of the words in her own portfolio.

Senator Claire Chandler and Senator Malcolm Roberts did a great job of exposing her nonsensical responses.

Harm to Women and Children

The Australian and Sky News have picked up on the fact that violent male criminals are being housed in female prisons. The Chief Minister of the Northern Territory has even stated on the record that there will be no males in female prisons on her watch.

The Victorian education department has been exposed by Moira Deeming MP again for socially transitioning students without parental knowledge or consent.

Binary campaigned on this issue in the lead-up to the 2022 Victorian state election. Three long years ago, we warned that the policy was there and would be taken advantage of.

We were ridiculed and ‘fact checked’ by the ABC, which deceived readers into thinking we made it up and yet we literally took the statement directly from the government website.

Unfortunately, thousands of children have now suffered the consequences of gender ideology in their schools, and countless parents have had their rights undermined by a system that cares more about progressing a dangerous ideology than the wellbeing of children.

Irreversible Damage

Children who are socially transitioned usually go on to take extremely harmful drugs such as puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.

These drugs render them sterile, without sexual function, incontinent, with high cholesterol, and bone density issues, along with other terrible side effects.

Politicians and the media are responsible for one of the worst medical scandals in Australia’s history. They have shrunk back, minimised, deceived and outright lied about the harm this dreadful ideology has inflicted on a generation of vulnerable young people.

It is encouraging that some are now stepping into the light. It is deeply shameful that so many still refuse to safeguard women and children.

Never underestimate the role you can play in sharing information and challenging the deceptive narrative. Make sure you share this post widely.

AUSTRALIAN MEDICAL SCHOOL REWRITES EXAM TO APPEASE RADICAL TRANSGENDER IDEOLOGUES

A disturbing exam question from an Australian medical school shows how scientific accuracy is being sacrificed for conformity to transgender ideology, casting serious doubt on the integrity of modern medical education and the future quality of patient care.

Below is a screenshot of a real question in a test for a fourth-year paediatric module in a medical school in Australia. The sender has requested to remain anonymous for obvious reasons, as they would no doubt be penalised for challenging the school’s political narrative.

It is incredibly alarming that this medical school has thrown out scientifically accurate terminology and concepts to appease transgender ideologues. The question is the promotion of a political narrative — it is not based on facts or reality.

Transgender Medical Exam Question

The question reads:

A 28 year old transgender man presents to the General Practice clinic with his two-week old infant. He gave birth vaginally after an uncomplicated pregnancy during which he temporarily discontinued testosterone therapy. He has not had a double mastectomy. He expresses a desire to breastfeed but is concerned about resuming testosterone. He has no significant medical history apart from gender dysphoria and takes no medications currently. On examination, both he and the infant appear well with vital signs within normal limits. The infant is gaining weight appropriately.”

Which of the following is the most appropriate management plan?

Choose the single best answer

  • Continue without testosterone while chestfeeding
  • Resume testosterone with concurrent chestfeeding
  • Commence formula feeding only
  • Start microdosing testosterone while chestfeeding
  • Alternate between formula and chestfeeding

Truth v Transgender Ideology

A human with a female reproductive system and the ability to give birth and breastfeed is a female. There is no evidence that any kind of man can perform this uniquely female accomplishment.

This medical school is redefining common language and scientific concepts. They are displaying utter contempt for reality and biology. How on earth can they be trusted to train up the next generation of medical practitioners when they care so little for accuracy and facts?

Changing pronouns or names, wearing costumes or taking drugs does not change the reality that it is only females who have a vagina, cervix, uterus, ovaries and breasts.

Redefining breastfeeding as “chestfeeding” is ludicrous. “Chest” refers to a relatively large anatomical region that contains a number of systems – cardiovascular, respiratory and mammary glands among them.

Breasts are an organ that produce breast milk by females for their babies. Redefining words won’t change this fact. Appeasing activists won’t enhance the level of professional, evidence-based care. It reduces a person to unreliable feelings that can minimise or ignore serious medical issues.

Indoctrinating medical trainees — gaslighting them with words and concepts that are clearly not biologically or anatomically correct — will reduce medical standards and trust. This is a clear breach of ethical and medical standards.

This is just another Biblical prophesied end-times sign prior to Jesus soon return with the glorified Saints to restore righteousness and institute His Millennial reign. This earth has another 1000 years before God destroys it with fire. After the final resurrection of the dead and the White Throne judgement, the apostle John sees a new Jerusalem descending from heaven on to a new Earth.

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:1-4

THE TRUTH OF BISHOP BUDDE’S SERMON TO TRUMP

Kaeley Harms, an adult survivor of childhood sexual abuse, has a visceral response to emotional manipulation. This is her response to Bishop Budde’s sermon to President Trump.

One needs only spend a few minutes familiarizing oneself with the entire body of Bishop Budde’s work to realise that what she was really asking for is not mercy but capitulation.  She wasn’t asking Trump to use softer words.  She was asking him to pump the brakes on necessary policy changes that would protect the greater good.

Jesus loves people. He loves you. He loves me. He loves illegal immigrants. He loves kids who are confused about their gender. His heart is merciful toward us. But loving every person does not mean He loves every idea or every action. Mercy doesn’t look like capitulating to ideologies that lead to harm. Mercy looks like intervening to stop the harm from happening, and it’s precisely that intervention that Bishop Budde was standing staunchly against in her speech. She framed the whole thing as love, of course, but the brand of love she was peddling wasn’t love at all, and that’s why it vexes me.

You should be able to step foot in a Christian church and find that the leaders are pointing you toward Jesus and the truth that can save.

Jesus says, “Come as you are,” not “Stay as you are.”  Faithful Christian leaders lovingly encourage their congregants to surrender their sins to Jesus and allow Him to transform them from the inside out. To be a Christian is to be willing to change. It means your identity is in Him, not your sexual preferences or rebellion against the material reality of your sex. But false leaders like Bishop Budde encounter this necessary shepherding and shout, “Have mercy! Don’t tell people they need to change! That’s hateful.” And in so doing, they circumvent the very repentance that could bring the healing we all claim to desire.

Budde’s speech perpetuated both the myth of the “transgender child” and the histrionic belief that children will die if we don’t indulge their delusion about their bodies. There’s no such thing as a transgender child. Mercy and compassion for kids who are confused about their sex looks like lovingly helping them make peace with the immutable nature of it. It does NOT look like forcing the rest of society to play make-believe with the cult ideology that’s harming them. The price tag here is just too high. Kids are not dying because we refuse to tell them lies about their bodies. The suggestion is preposterous and harmful.

Conservative political commentator Mark Steyn blasted Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde as “a tool of Satan” for pushing the idea of “transgender children” from the pulpit of the National Cathedral during her recent rebuke of President Donald Trump. There’s no such thing as a transgender kid,” Steyn said. “Some may think there is, and a confused 8-year-old boy or 11-year-old girl may think there is. But what it boils down to is you, the bishop, supporting slicing off the breasts of middle school girls. That makes you, the bishop, a tool of Satan. So you should be on a roasting spit in Hell for promoting that.”

Sadly, until very recently, the transgender movement has had all the institutional power. All of it. They’ve had a death grip on the entirety of mainstream media, big tech, big pharma, the medical industrial complex, academia, Hollywood elite, and, increasingly, of the now largely apostate church.

They have not been “powerless.”  Women have been powerless to stop them. How do you think female inmates raped by men in their prison cells feel when people who claim to be abuse survivor advocates defend their rapists in the name of God?

What does “mercy” look like to a physically castrated young man like Ritchie Herron who will never be a father because people like Bishop Budde encouraged the cult belief that they could be born in the wrong body? What does “mercy” look like to grieving parents whose children have committed suicide after the medical intervention experts promised what would make them happy failed to deliver?

I’m focused heavily on the trans element of Budde’s speech for obvious reasons: it’s been my soapbox for the past 10 years.  I’m so inundated with the stories of harm perpetrated by the gender cult that it keeps me up at night. 

GET ANSWERS ON ISSUES FACED BY CHRISTIANS TODAY

There’s a HUGE problem among evangelical Christians… In this episode of ANSWERS NEWS, our hosts Bryan Osborne, Dr. Tim Chaffey, and Patricia Engler share their perspectives on this and other topics as Bible-believing Christians.

If you want to be kept up to date on current U.S. and world news as it relates to Christians then I do suggest you subscribe to Answers in Genesis, ANSWERS NEWS. One of the issues this video reports on is a recent survey reveals, far too many Christians do not share their faith with nonbelievers. Critical Race Theory, Woke ideology, and transgender issues are also addressed.

CONSEQUENCES OF REJECTING GOD AND HIS LAWS

Transgender woman Roxanne Tickle has won a novel gender identity case brought against a women’s-only social media app and its owner after she was excluded from the platform. Federal Court Justice Robert Bromwich found Giggle for Girls and its owner Sall Grover had “indirectly discriminated” against Ms Tickle and ordered her to pay the applicant $10,000 and her legal costs.

Justice Bromwich said. He also found that “sex is changeable” after Ms Grover argued it was not. Ms. Tickle, who underwent gender-affirming surgery in 2019 and is now designated as female on her birth certificate, claims she was discriminated against on the grounds of gender identity by Giggle for Girls and Ms Grover when she was excluded from the women’s networking app.

It is the first time a case alleging gender identity discrimination has been heard by the Federal Court following changes to the Sex Discrimination Act in 2013, which made it unlawful to discriminate against a person based on sexual orientation, gender identity, or intersex status.

This predicament is the largely unanticipated outcome of Gillard-era changes to the Sex Discrimination Act to include “gender identity” as a ground for claiming unlawful discrimination. This was defined as “the gender-related identity, appearance or mannerisms or other gender-related characteristics of a person (whether by medical intervention or not), with or without regard to the person’s designated sex at birth”.

If last week’s Federal Court decision between Roxanne Tickle and Sall Grover goes unchallenged, then officially sex is no longer anchored in biology, at least for the purposes of the federal Sex Discrimination Act.

Tickle is still a biological male with X & Y chromosomes no surgery can change his biological makeup.

BRITAINS TOP HEALTH AUTHORITY FORMALLY DECLARES SEX A BIOLOGICAL REALITY

Good News: Britain’s top health authority is officially rejecting transgender ideology and declaring that biological sex is a reality, while “gender identity” isn’t. The U.K.’s National Health Service (NHS) is revising its constitution to state, “We are defining sex as biological sex.” The proposed constitutional revisions stress a need for “respecting the biological differences between men and women,” further warning, “If these biological differences are not considered or respected, there is the potential for unintended adverse health consequences.”

Among other things, the constitutional revision will bar biological men who identify as women from accessing female-only wards, allow female patients to request other biological females for “intimate care,” and do away with terms such as “chestfeeding” and “birthing people.”

“We need to be making this robust case to refuse to wipe women out of the conversation,” Health Secretary Victoria Atkins stated, according to The Telegraph. “We have always been clear that sex matters and our services should respect that. By putting this in the NHS constitution we’re highlighting the importance of balancing the rights and needs of all patients to make a healthcare system that is faster, simpler, and fairer for all.”

Common sense has prevailed in the UK hopefully this will at least influence Australia and other Commonwealth countries. It should at least stir up discussion on the issue in the USA. It will be interesting to see what happens.

TRANSGENDER MADNESS WHEN WILL IT STOP?

Two Out of Three Kids Will No Longer Identify as Transgender by Adulthood, Massive Study Finds.

The vast majority of children who experience gender dysphoria will embrace their biological sex by adulthood, according to a sweeping national study that monitored children for 15 years. Roughly two out of every three children who identify as transgender will embrace their birth sex by their mid-20s, the study found. People most likely to continue to identify as transgender have low self-esteem and other mental health challenges, researchers found.

A study of children in the Netherlands tracked 2,772 adolescents from 11 to 26, asking them to rate their mental and physical health every three years for 15 years. The Youth and Adult Self-Report (YSR) asked participants to assess how much they agreed with the statement, “I wish to be of the opposite sex.” A team of researchers then pored over the data from the Tracking Adolescent’s Individual Lives Survey (TRAILS) to measure “gender non-contentedness.”

The vast majority (78%) of people never felt any feelings of gender dysphoria, researchers noted. “In early adolescence, 11% of participants reported gender non-contentedness,” wrote researchers in the study, published in February in the peer-reviewed Archives of Sexual Behavior. “The prevalence decreased with age and was 4% at the last follow-up (around age 26)” — a desistance rate of 64%. 

This and other studies reveal that “minors who are put on puberty blockers for the purposes of ‘gender affirmation’ are extremely likely to go on to take cross-hormones” such as estrogen and testosterone, Richards told TWS. Studies show up to 93% of children who begin on puberty blockers will go on to receive cross-sex hormone injections. Experts say the transgender industry’s early medical intervention actually deepens and prolongs feelings of gender dysphoria that would otherwise go away on their own. “This is what makes ‘gender-affirming’ (that is, sex-denying) medical interventions on minors such a medical atrocity. These interventions fast track troubled kids onto a path to sterilization and lifelong medical problems,” explained Richards.

The harm goes beyond lost fertility. “There is no research into long-term harms, but some evidence suggests decreased IQ and brittle bones. Permanent sterility is guaranteed for minors who go through full hormonal “transition.” Sexual dysfunction appears to be extremely common as well,” wrote Leor Sapir, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute, at The Hill. So-called “gender-affirming hormonal treatment” (GAHT) causes “permanent physical changes including excruciating genital growthvaginal atrophy and tearing and much higher risk for cancer and cardiovascular disease.”

CHANGING SEX IS IMPOSSIBLE

In relation to sex and gender, regardless of our linguistic machinations, our sex as male or female is stamped on nearly every cell of the body. No matter what linguistic tools are employed to achieve this end, it is a vain effort that will fail. Changing sex is impossible. No amount of chemical intervention or surgery can change a person’s sex. The XX chromosomes remain XX. The XY chromosomes remain XY.

But there is also damage done to language itself when we begin to refer to biological males or females by opposite-sex pronouns and act as if, by our words, we can change reality. The twisting of language is a deadly serious problem.

At base, the splitting of sex and gender is a distortion of language to change how people see reality. Behind the distortion is a belief that no truths about the world can be known with certainty. Rather, truth is up to the individual. In the United States, a majority now believes this. If nothing about reality is knowable, then no meaningful difference exists between male and female (or truth or a lie, or justice or injustice, or any other distinction, for that matter). Words bear no clearly identifiable relationship to anything knowable. At root, the gender ideology battle is a battle over the very meaning of words. It is a twisting of language to change how people see the world. The change from what we use to label transsexual to transgender was so deceptive I believe it was satanically driven. The shift was cunning and one that was intended to mainstream transgenderism and even apply it to children.

The prefix “trans” means “to change,” and the individuals who experienced some kind of body dysmorphia that manifested in confusion about one’s sex were, until recent years, known as “transsexuals.” For many, the word connotes something extremely odd — perhaps a sexual fetish. But with the introduction of the idea that gender is malleable, people were led to question whether the distinction between male and female even exists or matters.

Among the most pernicious aspects of twisting language is that people are required, if they want to be socially acceptable, to participate in lies. It is an undoing of the very idea that the words we use refer to anything real.

The gender ideology movement insists that for humans to be free to pursue their fullest self-interest, reality itself must be deconstructed. God has given them up to depraved minds.

And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.Romans 1:28

TRANSGENDER SURGERY FOR CHILDREN

Is the following good news an indicator that the world is turning back to God’s values? Sadly, God’s Word, the Bible tells us that godlessness and lawlessness will increase as we approach the time of Jesus’ Second Coming. God has given us at least 1800 prophecies of His return to earth, first to raise the dead in Christ and then to rapture believers to heaven before God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world.

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced on Monday that he has implemented an emergency regulation imposing what his office calls “guardrails” on gender transition interventions for minors as the push to ban the controversial practices continues on a state-by-state basis. “Even Europe recognizes that mutilating children for the sake of a woke, leftist agenda has irreversible consequences, and countries like Sweden, Norway, and the United Kingdom have all sharply curtailed these procedures,”

The new regulation “clarifies that state law already prohibits performing experimental procedures in the absence of specific guardrails” and requires medical professionals to inform patients that the use of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones “is experimental and is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)” and that “the FDA has issued a warning that puberty blockers can lead to brain swelling and blindness.” Bailey’s office says the move was necessary “due to the skyrocketing number of gender transition interventions despite rising concerns in the medical community that these procedures are experimental and lack clinical evidence of safety or success.”

Despite this information, the LGBTQ agenda is being promoted and adopted widely

Dylan Mulvaney appeared on the Drew Barrymore Show Monday imparting wisdom to fellow transgender people just starting their “gender journey,” and encouraging parents of so-called “trans kids” to support their confused children in their belief that they are members of the opposite sex.

At one point, Barrymore, one of the most famous women in the world, kneeled before Mulvaney in a gushing display of deference to the male who shot to fame performing an over-the-top ditsy-woman persona in the TikTok series 100 Days of Girlhood.

Trans activists like Dylan Mulvaney, whose painfully offensive internet content shows each day of his life of “girlhood” using outdated female stereotypes, may merit our compassion and an invitation to redemption — but Barrymore’s behavior was more akin to worship. She appeared to wholeheartedly celebrate everything that Dylan falsely proclaims himself to be, perpetuating the same façade that both she and everyone watching knew to be a lie.

Contrary to Barrymore’s example, in a culture where the existence and privacy of women are increasingly thrust into question by transgender ideology, it is more important than ever that women stick together in defending the dignity of our sex against those who parody it in the public square.

In a similar act of kneeling to transgender ideology, Wellesley College made headlines this week due to a student referendum that supported welcoming all transgender and so-called nonbinary-identifying students to the traditionally all-female institution. If adopted, this change would mark a significant departure from the original intention of the school, which was founded in 1875 with the goal of expanding higher education opportunities to women; notably, Ivy League universities didn’t accept female students until they began in the late 1960s. In more recent years, women’s colleges have offered young women an oasis of privacy, particularly for students with a prior history of sexual trauma and a desire to minimize the risk of suffering the all-too-common experience of campus sexual assault.

This is clear evidence we are living in the last days before Jesus returns to set up His millennial reign on this earth. As I mentioned before, there are more than 1800 Bible references to Jesus’ second coming so know it is next on God’s agenda for this earth.

They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.Revelation 20:4-6

TRANSGENDERISM IS ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT END TIMES SIGNS

Even evolutionary biologists understand that biological sex is foundational to “preserving a functional society “.

I’m frequently asked why I focus so much on the nature of biological sex. It’s because in my view this may be reality’s last stand. If this undeniable fact can be denied en masse, then we become hostages to chaos. We simply cannot afford to lose our collective tether to reality.” —Colin Wright, evolutionary biologist.

I’m not obsessed with gender. I’m obsessed with the preservation of a functional society. Ours will fail if we allow some to impose their personal fictions on others.” —Bret Weinstein, evolutionary biologist

Our society is descending into chaos and lawlessness exactly as Jesus said it would prior to His second coming to earth to first rescue the Saints and then to pour His wrath on an unrepentant world.

Transgenderism has exploded across the world in the past decade, particularly in the West. In my last post “Vladimir Putin on Religion and Family“, he made this comment on the West. “Look at what they’re doing with their own people,” he said. “It is all about the destruction of the family, of cultural and national identity, perversion and abuse of children, including pedophilia, all of which are declared normal in their life.”

Critics of transgender ideology are, predictably, met with withering rebuke. They’re labeled as “transphobic,” hateful, and even criminal. The vitriol seems especially intense when the criticism arises from within the LGBTQ community.

Even the gay neuroscientist Simon LeVay, whose research led to the claim that homosexuality is genetically heritable, has expressed skepticism about the transgender movement. An article in a leading LGBTQ publication quotes LeVay as saying, “We may be overly supportive of gender non-conforming kids, thinking they may be transgender so advocating giving them hormones or castrating them at an early age… We should always love our kids as they are, whatever, but don’t tell them their sexuality is a done deal before puberty.”

One activist called LeVay’s remarks quoted above, as “beyond irresponsible,” implying that such comments foster bullying and aggression. 10 Tweets from singer Bette Midler and author JK Rowling expressing concern about the diminishment of womanhood were roundly condemned in forceful and often vulgar ways, even though both women have been longtime supporters of the LGBTQ movement.

What we face is an unprecedented coupling of postmodernist academic theory with an internet-fueled social contagion targeting
vulnerable boys and girls who are struggling with their God-given sex. Spiritual warfare is truly intensifying as Satan realises his time ruling this planet is coming to an end and he wants to take as many humans down with him as he can.
