“We are not our own any more than what we possess is our own. We did not make ourselves, we cannot be supreme over ourselves. We are not our own masters.”

― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

I picked up the Mercury News on Sunday morning (March 3rd) and came across the following headline: “UCSF working on transgender research”. Given all the coverage of transgenders recently, I did not think much of it, until I read further:

“Researchers at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital clinic . . . have been conducting a study that will involve nearly 300 patients ages 8-18 to understand the long-term effects of transgender treatments. These include [administering] puberty blocking hormones, which given patients [the children] more time to explore their gender identity and testosterone and estrogen.”

8-18 yrs. old? That is before the age of consent. At that age children are not even allowed to vote, drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes or provide consent for sexual relations. The article proudly goes on to report:

“Previous research in the Netherlands tracked transgender patients 12 and older. But the UCSF study is the first to include children younger than 12 . . . This is unlike the Dutch model which specifies that treatments are based specifically on a patient’s age…Kimberly Richman whose 9-year expressed a desire to transition from female to male last summer thinks the clinic’s care is life-changing. Allowing the transition to start at a young age is ‘much more proactive and healthy and safe than waiting until they are adults and have a breaking point.'”

Can a 9-yr. old really be in the position to determine whether they should have a sex change operation? Should medical practitioners and health care professionals be performing these operations on children that young? Something is amiss here. I looked up the Benioff Center. The webpage states:

“Gender non-conforming/transgender youth and adolescents feel a strong conflict between their gender (inner sense of who they are) and their physical sex characteristics. The CAGC team believes that being transgender is a normal variation in gender identity. As of May, 2013, the American Psychiatric Association has replaced the term “gender identity disorder” with the term “gender dysphoria.”

Medical treatment may include administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-A). These hormones can safely suppress puberty by blocking the production of the principal sex hormones: estrogen and testosterone…this treatment gives young people time to achieve greater self-awareness of their gender identification. If and when appropriate, our experts may administer cross-gender sex hormones”

Safely suppress puberty? Give children “greater self-awareness of their gender identification” by administrating puberty blockers and sex hormones? This runs contrary to scientific and natural norms. Biological sex (XX or XY chromosomes) are determined before birth. Across species this has been the case for millions if not billions of years of evolution. Humans are no different. There are males and females and reproductive roles follow biological sex. The term “gender identity” is a recent construct of feminist and post-modernist pseudo-science that believes that natural and biological traits such as one’s predetermined sex is simply a construct of society and male oppressive hierarchies.

The gender identity and transgender movement was once relegated to one-off departments of liberal arts colleges that touted this stuff in feminist and gender studies programs. It then made its way into media, politics and law, where now just about anyone can profess whatever gender, race or identify they want, despite their origins. Now, a leading medical University (UCSF) is providing medical and scientific blessing to these marginal social philosophies. And while questionable sex change operations have been available for adults for some time now, its now apparently okay and legal to perform them on children?

In this “Brave New World” the doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists at the University of California are actively encouraging parents and their children to change their sex before the age of consent — and as early as the age of 8-yrs old. This is despite the fact that administration of puberty blockers and hormones on young children can have a irreversible effect on their body, development and brains. And all in the name of promoting “gender purity”. It is no surprise that hundreds of young boys are being enrolled in these experiments by their mothers to rid them of their toxic masculinity at an early age.

If children are under the age of consent and are not allowed to make decisions on sexual relations, voting, smoking or drinking, how can they be possibly be able to provide informed consent for a sex change? And how can a leading medical university that receives federal and state funding actively encourage this. How is this ethical, led alone legal or not criminal?

During the Nazi regime, the practice of medicine was perverted from its typical purposes of healing and aiding the sick and suffering and was used instead to promote “ideas and solutions to the racial problems” that the Nazis perceived were a plague on their country. This shift could represent a compelling explanation of why German medical science moved away from the high ethical and professional standards that it had previously set and toward the realm of pseudo-science and torture.

UCSF’s gender dysphoria clinic reminds me much of the Nazi experiments — instead of experiments designed to achieve racial purity, scientists and doctors are now administering experiments to achieve “gender purity” and cure “toxic masculinity”. Aldous Huxley’s dystopic vision in the “Brave New World” in which mating and biological and sexual determinism was outlawed, is, today, more real than fiction.
