Online trans activists seem to take particular pleasure in attempting to alienate young people from their families. It’s a well known tactic, usually coupled with reassuring any teen who has raised even the most tentative questions about “gender identity” that they are “trans.” The site Transgender Reality has done a great job documenting this phenomenon.
Not coincidentally, this is also the modus operandi of cults: Isolate the person from friends and family, those who care most; demonize loved ones and tell the cult initiate to cut off all contact.
Luckily, some formerly trans-identified people are starting to speak out about the enduring bonds they have with their parents. And some parents are becoming more vocal about the damage trans activism has caused to their families.
The screenshot is taken from a comment submitted to a recent guest post on my WordPress blog. The post was written by a mom about her daughter who recovered from the social contagion that has infected so many “gender nonconforming” girls.
Love doesn’t always mean saying yes.
“She didn’t take me to a gender clinic or therapist, didn’t get me on hormones, didn’t buy me a binder, and at the time, I hated her for it but now I’m glad she didn’t. In a weird way, it strengthened our relationship.
I wish all this transgender nonsense would end, I fell victim to it and plenty of other girls have too. I wish all girls knew that they don’t have to be feminine to be a girl and being a girl is nothing to be ashamed of.“
