Comment on ‘Transgendered’ Kids in School: The Big Lie by Glen Sizemore

A very interesting subject. Over the past 10-years my wife and I, and our adult daughter and her husband, have come to know a number of transgendered professional people including our dermatologist, two neighbors, a CIA Director, and a few others. There are many more transgendered folks than one might imagine. The vast majority are heterosexual “cross-dressers”, e.g. men or women who like to occasionally express a “second-self”, e.g. the opposite gender. A few, a very few, feel that they were born into the wrong body. Our transgendered dermatologist and his wife explained to us that “sex is between your legs, while gender is between your ears”. My father, a clinical psychologist, agreed 100% since he has a number of T-G patients. He also pointed out that it is “not a pathology” and there is “no cure”. If you are born transgender, you will remain transgender. For most transgendered folks, it is manifested early in life. And he pointed out that being transgendered and can be a living-hell. Most will do their best to try to escape the situation, but since you are born transgendered or not, it is a pre-programmed situation.

My wife and I feel very sorry for anyone, or the parents or families, who suffer with a transgendered situation. Society will attack any who appear to be different regardless. It took quite a while for American society to begin to accept Blacks, the Irish, Asians and others who are”different” in any way.

A three and a half year old does not comprehend “girl” and “boy” clothing. That is taught. Failure to guide a child can result in these gender confusion senarios. Boys wearing high heels are just doing it cause they see mommy do it, not cause they identify with a gender. This confusion is what is leading parents down the rabbit hole of failing to guide their kids down the right path.

I’ve found that you cannot have a discussion based upon reason with people who insist that you can square a circle, that they are really Napoleon, or that two and two equals five. Add to that list people who think they are trapped in the wrong body. Followers of gender theory ideology are trying to sell us on the idea that we who oppose their false ideology must abandon our reason and join their ranks instead. No thanks, not even if corrupt laws are enacted to try to make us do so.

Reality is, intersex conditions are only half as rare as having the gene for red hair (1.5%). Reality is, some intersex people reject the sex and gender imposed on them as infants and transition as adults. You see, sometimes people are more than one thing.
You sound like you believe minds are irrelevant. Would you also believe intelligence doesn’t exist? Or depression? Or language? There is no evidence of a critical period in the development of gender identity, and no evidence to support social learning theory (role modeling) accounts of the origins of gender identity. Children don’t behave like that theory wants them to when it comes to gender identity. Most transgender people have had two excellent heterosexual cis gender parents who love/loved them deeply. We trans people are not the fault of our parents. Yet they will always be blamed it seems. Some of those parents wear that blame as badge of pride, as they should. There is nothing “wrong” with being trans.

Reality is that we are born as either of the male sex or of the female sex, with corresponding physical manifestations. Very rarely, people are born with a physical abnormality (intersex) in which they have physical characteristics of both sexes.

Having an intersex condition is not the same as the “transgender” theory in which the individual has normal physical sexual characteristics but in their mind thinks they’re the opposite sex. When people still had common sense, we used to know it as a fact that during the crucial time of early psychological development (2-5 years old) the young, impressionable child patterns after male or female role modeling. Those individuals who believe they are “transgender” patterned after the wrong role modeling as young children and didn’t pick up the right clues of maleness or femaleness to integrate into their personality. This is why you will often hear such individuals say something such as, “I always felt this way, ever since I was very little. Like I didn’t fit in my body”. It’s because the right role modeling wasn’t processed by them for various reasons (maybe lack of same sex parent’s interaction, family members unknowingly encouraging opposite sex behaviors, etc). They did not receive the right clues and became confused as to their role as a male or female.

it’s very hard to look into the reason for a child’s mistaken belief that they are “transgender”. Many parents’ unspoken fear is that they would be blamed.

This is a “good news” or Gospel story and commentary on the state of our sick culture’s mindset on those with disAbilities and the true meaning of the culture of life and a civilization of love. This is life lived well!

I disagree. I am the only female wrestler on an all boy’s varsity wrestling team. Unless you have personally wrestled and experienced it, you will never know what it is like and what it takes. Believe me, I’ve talked to other boys I’ve wrestled in my weight class, they do not care that I am a female. They will wrestle and win or lose just the same. My teammates I practice with have never felt uncomfortable wrestling me (however I do wear only sweats at practice for the extra precaution); I insist they inform me if they feel differently. Any sexuality aspect of wrestling is the farthest thing from anyone’s mind while they are wrestling. They are concerned about winning.
I agree that if any female or male does not what it takes to wrestle, they shouldn’t. But anyone is capable of doing what they love. If someone does not like being handled roughly, they shouldn’t wrestle. Great wrestlers are okay with pain and grappling. Female wrestlers understand what they are getting into and accept it.
The “dunder-headed school administrators” have no right to not allow a girl to wrestle. The only reason a girl should not be allowed to wrestle is if they are doing it for the wrong reasons. But, believe me, unless they are truly committed those kinds of girls will quit.
What if it was your daughters’ dream to wrestle? Would you stop her? Please consider this.
