gender a social construct is nonsense

A recent study of over 100,000 gender-confused Americans found that those who underwent a “sex-change” surgery have “substantially increased rates not only of depression, but of anxiety, suicidal ideation, and substance use disorders.”

The study highlighted that men who underwent these surgeries had a depression rate of over 25%, compared to 11.5% of men who hadn’t gone as far as surgery. And for women, it was similar: nearly 23% vs. 14.6%. In other words, surgery doesn’t fix the identity crisis! It only makes things worse!

Now, this study was comparing those who had socially and maybe even chemically “transitioned,” versus those who “transitioned” and then later underwent surgery. Those who had surgery had a substantially higher risk of depression (the opposite of what you would expect if so-called gender-affirming “care” worked), but even the group with the lower depression rates—those who only socially and/or chemically transitioned—still have a much higher rate of depression than the general population (which is 5% according to the CDC). Again, our culture’s answer to gender confusion is not working! When we stray from God’s design and try to be our own gods, pain and suffering follow.

If a parent has a child struggling with gender identity, one of the first things they’re often told by counsellors, doctors, and therapists is, “You must immediately affirm your child’s new identity, or your child will likely commit suicide.” This and other studies prove that this is false and that surgery doesn’t fix the identity crisis! It only makes things worse!.

The good news is that on Monday, SCOTUS took up a case involving a challenge from a counsellor against a Colorado law banning so-called “conversion therapy” for minors identifying as LGBT. However, as Family Research Council President Tony Perkins clarified on Tuesday’s “Washington Watch,” while “the legacy media likes to call it conversion therapy … it’s really a ban on any conversation that doesn’t align with the Left’s radical gender ideology.” Colorado’s ban states that counsellors may not attempt to “change an individual’s sexual orientation or gender identity.”

The BBC shamelessly opens a Pandora’s Box of gender confusion and sexual immorality, corrupting young, vulnerable minds—and schools are following their lead.

The BBC have released nine online videos titled “The Big Talk” for use in British schools as part of the UK’s new Relationships and Sexuality Education (RSE) curriculum, which came into force in September, 2019.

More than 100 gender identities have now been coined to cater for every possible choice that certain people have made regarding their sexuality. It was widely reported in the UK media that the BBC encourages “celebration” of this plethora of genders (see also our previous article, Celebrating gender confusion). To question this ideology is now considered rank heresy. However, the BBC’s teaching will only sow further confusion in our society. The unpalatable truth is that a radical, dangerous philosophy is now being forced upon the young and vulnerable as part of the advancement of an extreme political ideology. It is of grave concern that the BBC is preaching this new ‘all-inclusive doctrine’ to children as young as 9–12 years of age. However, they have no lower age limit in practice. In the BBC videos, school children are encouraged to transgress the clear standards of God’s Word and to celebrate this behaviour. Also, The Coalition for Marriage reports children as young as four are being instructed in transgenderism²—this is a gravely concerning situation.

Recently, Canadian academic Christopher Dummitt, a leader in the field of historical gender studies, bluntly admitted: “Everyone was (and is) making it up. That’s how the gender-studies field works.”⁴ Dummit confesses that his field is driven by the underlying, unproven, ideological belief that gender is socially constructed, that it is non-binary (i.e. not restricted to male and female), and that traditional masculinity empowers men to oppress women. Such thinking has dominated the liberal arts in Western academic institutions since the 1990s. But such an ideology Dummit admits is “bankrupt”, not based on biological fact.
