I really hope when this shit is all finally over and society realizes how fucked up this movement is that all these doctors and therapists who are pushing this shit on kids wind up in prison for the rest of their lives.

If history is any guide, many won't, and nothing will be learned. Some will be sued or imprisoned and it might be enough to stop this particular social contagion in its tracks, but all this has happened before and will happen again. Just look at the multiple personalities craze (currently having a resurgence), the Satanic Panic and the Satanic Daycare trials, and more recently, the opioid crisis, manufactured by Big Pharma (sound familiar?)

Sadly. Makes me sick that all these doctors who are deliberately harming their patients and are just going to go on with their lives like nothing happened while their patients will have health issues the rest of their lives.

I hated pink and still do and I am not transgender doctors are twisting things to suit there own agendas

There's something badly wrong when the NHS has money for this sort of thing but not for vital operations.

I can't read the article. I'm a woman, female and very much heterosexual. As a little girl I never liked pink or playing with dolls. I preferred lego and toy cars, climbing trees and riding my bike and no I wasn't a Tom boy either. I was a girl.

What a load of tripe. My youngest daughter didn't like barbie and preferred action man loved her garage set also played football and fought with the boys. Grew up to be one of the most feminine women ever .

Needs to be banned. Only counselling until they're adult.

Glad this is finally being said by someone more embedded in the story. I would have been tossed in that bucket easily as a kid.

I still am not a fan of pink.

Same here. It's total bullshit that one specific individual preference for a color is seen by many in the trans rights movements as a sign that children are "born in the wrong body." Same sexism, new marketing spin.

It's the shallow reasoning of simpletons.
