SHAMEFUL: At the "Values Voter Summit," a panel of anti-LGBTQ extremists took aim at trans children & youth. will join this designated hate group today, making clear he stands w/ many organizations & leaders who promote hate & fear. #VVS18 #NotOurValues #RealMikePence
Conversation
Junk scientist Paul McHugh, who has repeatedly denied the existence of transgender people, opened the panel by falsely claiming that validating a person's gender identity is "experimental" and has little scientific support. #VVS18 #NotOurValues

McHugh went on to make blatantly egregious and false statements that trans youth whose gender identities are affirmed are being subjected to "social coercion" with ultimately disastrous outcomes. #VVS18 #NotOurValues

In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics released a new policy statement just this month calling for inclusive care and supportive policies for transgender and gender-diverse youth. #VVS18 #NotOurValues

In its statement, the AAP noted that transgender youth are underserved when seeking care and underscored the need for more training for providers and health care professionals so that trans youth and their families get the support they need. #VVS18 #NotOurValues

Michelle Cretella of the American College of Pediatricians, a hate group masquerading as a pediatric organization, attacked the trans community & denied the existence of gender identity, calling it "institutionalized child abuse" & "a false belief." #VVS18 #NotOurValues
Replying to
Cretella despicably denounced the passage of statewide legislation that protects youth from the dangerous and abusive practice of so-called "conversion therapy," saying these states are denying children the necessary "therapy that affirms natural sex." #VVS18 #NotOurValues

The panel closed with "conversion therapy advocate" Elizabeth Johnston referring to trans children as "gender confused" and touting her efforts to deny #LGBTQ students their basic rights in school. #VVS18 #NotOurValues

Child abuse is also trying to convince a child that has no conscience of sex, into believing they are of the opposite sex. That is the definition of institutionalized child abuse, and any parent that is a part of it should be ashamed of themselves, and should not have children.

A hate group? Don’t you mean a legit group of medical professionals that still believe what all medical professionals believed (or would have believed had it come up) for hundreds of years?

Gender identity is a metaphysical concept used to explain gender dysphoria. Trying to impose an ideological religious belief on people is not a defense of human rights - it's thought control.

Gender identity is sexist bullshit and an "affirm only" approach to trans identification in children is effectively child abuse given that the majority of children desist when treated neutrally.
