Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, the daughter of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, must have been a great disappointment for the ARFs, adepts-propagandists of the transcult. Respectfully raised by her parents as John and dressed in men's clothes as per her specific request, at the age of 14 John Shiloh is back and runs around with her sisters hunting for girls' clothes. To Shiloh no puberty blockers or hormones were administered. She was simply left free to choose jackets, ties, short hair and a masculine name. And now she's just as free to show off perfectly conforming, following the natural fluidity of childhood-adolescence. If Shiloh had been hormonised, this naturalness would have been hampered and today she might be a little girl with a beard and a male voice. The ARF have lost a perfect icon. We have conquered it those of us who fight for the free signification of all existence, away from gender stereotypes and destruction med of healthy bodies. The following story tells this struggle.

Lucia (fictitious name) is mother of a dysphoric girl. For a couple of years the girl has been saying she wants to be a man. Lucia respects her, calls her daughter by the male name she has chosen, but now the girl is asking to take puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones. Lucia is very afraid of the finality of this choice and will not sign the consent. She approached an association that deals with transgender people for guidance and help. We publish the exchange here. Disconcerting. (At Lucia's request we will not publish the name of the association).

"Good morning, I have been living in this nightmare for 2 and a half years. My daughter, who has always been very feminine in everything, after spending 6 months crying which we explained by a bad school performance, she told us she wanted to become a man. I was shocked and after 1.5 years of therapy, we found out that she had been abused by her best friend. Then, once they broke up, she had a lesbian relationship with a friend (we are talking about 12-year-old girls) and as a result of this, bullied heavily at school. Now, sI'm looking for information on how to deal with it. We accepted the new name, the new clothes right away... but I can't accept the idea of giving blockers and testosterone. I know what happened to my daughter. I am certain that in her case the problem is social. She has nothing to do with masculinity. She hates her physique, she hates her self and her past. But of course she doesn't want to hear it, so I keep quiet, but it won't be me who signs those papers. I will be close to her at that moment, but with death in my heart. I need to try to understand how I can move forward, to share my experience with other parents in Italy. My son is obviously waging war against me.... who can help me? Thank you for your attention.

Lucia'.

Association response

Not me, ma'am. I deal with media representation, you have the wrong site. I may be brutal, but I don't think there is any help for those who think they know who they are instead of someone else. You are megalomaniac and selfish and ready to drive your children to suicide. because you would never take hormones and blockers and project your own fears. Your child is not you. You are two different people. The blockers are a compromise because otherwise those who are sure could take hormones right away. Anyway in Italy they don't give them if a person isn't suicidal thanks to a backward and ignorant society that believes in anti-gender fairy tales and forces professionals to be hyper cautious. I don't know for sure if your son is a man, a woman or a non-binary person, only he will be able to tell day after day. I do know that he deserves respect and can make mistakes and it is not a tragedy to make mistakes alone because he starts to take responsibility for what he does and wants. Preventing someone from making a mistake means not letting them feel their trust and support. He is fooling him, deluding him into supporting him with his name and then denying him his needs and talking about it to an unknown person but not to him who is the one directly concerned. This stupid attitude is called betraying her trust. All I know is that you are afraid and this fear is a terrible misfortune for your son. because it will prevent him from having her support, whoever he is, and it will lead to her listening to anyone who tells her what she wants to hear, which is that she is not trans. 

See you again, I hope. 

Lucia's reply

"You are like crocodiles waiting for a wounded young prey to pass you by.

They are often little girls, lonely girls, whose lives have already been very violent: beaten at school, abused by their friends, crushed by an authority that finds no other way to make them respect themselves, teased by their friends out of jealousy or more simply because they are different. So, to these girls who would like to disappear, who they hate each other because the world has hated and unprotected them because of their gender, you propose a solution: a colourful family and the chance to start afresh, another name so as not to be reminded of the humiliation suffered by the previous one and the chance to wear the mighty male armour. To put them on an equal footing with those of whom they have been afraid and of whom their peers have so much respect.

Sure in return there is breast and vagina mutilation and eternal medicalisation. With some small, devastating side effects. But you know, look at these beautiful young youtubers. It's all safe, they're living a very normal life. And of course you warn them well: if anyone tries to question your decision, take them off the air. Trauma cannot be discussed because that is American 'reparative therapy'.. No, that's not it, that's what the psychologist does, that's his job, he works on traumas. But no, of course, that's a sin.

And so cut off psychologists, family, close friends. Because if anyone dares to ask, if anyone dares to go into depth to understand why from one day to the next a girl denies her entire past and invents a new one to be able to justify such a sudden change, that person is transphobic. Oh, and if anyone dares to misspell a pronoun or mention the "dead name'....death it is, ostracism. And so there they are all there for you, fawning, believing only what you say and all those youtubers showing a smooth transition. Come on, get on the bandwagon too.

And so you have destroyed them completely, they will remain tied to you for years and years. Then someone wakes up, has the courage to make the detransition. Then you humiliate them, you shut them up, you say they don't exist. They were not really trans. Some despair, some take their responsibility with dignity. Others denounce you. Others don't have the courage and will be stuck with you forever because that's how brainwashing works. Others of course are really trans. And that small percentage will benefit from LGBT struggles. But all the others? 

I'm sure she's not a mother... because that no mother would have given such a bad answer. I am sure that if he shows my e-mail to a mother in your association he will not share the words she wrote. But her anger and nastiness was there, she could not share it with others. She had to humiliate me. Because it's true, I can't be sure that my daughter isn't really trans. But are you 100% sure that blockers do not hurt? Do not block also the development of the brain, making vain the wait of the 18 years to have in front of us an older daughter more aware: we will have in front of us a 15 years old girl with the age to self-determine, who refused a psychological therapy because her "new family" told her that it is enough to "think" to be a man and she is a man... and the damage is done. Testosterone, irreversible damage... and a life definitively marked.

To me this reminds me of a sect, a religious sect.

Until we meet again, for sure

'We were wrong': pioneer of puberty blockers admits damage
Susan Bradley, a Canadian psychiatrist who founded a clinic for 'dysphoric' minors in the 1970s and an authority in this field today states that the switch from psychological therapy to drugs was a big mistake. Because their effects are severe and not reversible, because those treatments are 'authoritarian' and experimental. And because in 9 out of 10 cases children's dysphoria is only temporary and masks other disorders.
In an interview with the Daily Caller News Foundation, Dr Susan Bradley, a Canadian psychiatrist and a pioneer in the treatment of gender dysphoria in children, spoke out against the popular model of affirming children's transgender identities and treating them with puberty-blocking drugs, a practice she had participated in in the past. Bradley had opened a paediatric clinic in 1975 for children suffering from gender dysphoria, a profound sense of unease concerning the [...]

Mental disorders in children: it's an epidemic. In parallel with the boom in 'gender dysphoria'
An American study reveals that psychological distress in adolescents has been on a growth spike since 2012 with different symptoms between males and females. And that almost always the idea of wanting to 'change sex' is accompanied by other problems. Loneliness, social networks, pornography: how savage marketing is destroying a generation
The silence on puberty blockers prescribed to girls and boys with gender non-conforming behaviour has finally been broken in Italy too. It has been broken mainly thanks to the efforts of radical feminists, parents' groups and Italian psychoanalysts who have written to the government (see here). The debate has also arrived on TV, with two recent episodes of Quarta Repubblica with interventions by Italian and foreign experts, from feminists Marina Terragni (here, from 1'46'') and Monica Ricci [...].

UK: Inquiry book published on the Tavistock case, clinic that 'cured' autistic children by transitioning them
BBC journalist Hanna Barnes struggled hard to find a publisher: the censorship we all know. But she finally made it. And now her sensational essay on the scandal of the Tavistock, a clinic for the transition of minors closed by the British National Health Service: puberty blockers casually prescribed to preadolescents with autism, trauma or psychological disorders. For years some staff tried to raise the alarm, but were intimidated and silenced. This is an entirely political issue, because the health of children is at stake. Thousands throughout the West lured by hammering trans-propaganda
Hanna Barnes is a BBC journalist. After conducting a thorough investigation of the Tavistock clinic in London, a centre for the gender transition of minors, and having discovered the wickedness of that service, she decided to turn it into a book. But it was not at all easy to find a publisher willing to publish it. Not because Barnes's work was not documented and rigorous, but because no publishing house could withstand the likely accusation of transphobia that the publication of the [...]

The trans-industry on the assault of children
The huge business - drugs and surgery - attracts more and more investors. To widen the audience they work on social networks and in schools where they teach that Zeus was non-binary, celebrate every transition and threaten those who resist, as a 14-year-old English girl tells the Daily Mail. While in the US, the former manager of a gender clinic for minors spills the beans: what goes on in those places is appalling. They must be stopped. Two impressive testimonies
The complex and articulated system to which we call transactivism (read business: thanks to Jennifer Bilek for her meticulous investigative work) has long been working to create an ever-widening audience of drug and surgery users to transition: for surgery alone, turnover in 2022 was $623 million (Global Market Insight, an agency that directs investors to the best opportunities), a figure expected to increase exponentially in the [...].

Mail-bombing to Repubblica: Unacceptable misinformation on puberty blockers
In an article devoid of scientific evidence, Michela Marzano claims that the effects of puberty blockers administered to 'gender non-conforming' children would be perfectly reversible, a fact denied by studies and clinical practice. And he speaks of an increased suicide risk for these minors, a risk that has never been proven. Here is the scientifically argued text of a letter to be sent to Director Molinari requesting more accurate and less ideological information on such a sensitive issue
Text for a mail-bombing, to be sent to the editor Maurizio Molinari m.molinari@repubblica.it Dear Director Molinari, we read Michela Marzano's article, entitled 'Nobody touches gender identity', published in your newspaper on Sunday 5 February. And we cannot fail to note with dismay that the author tackles the very delicate issue of 'dysphoric' minors without any scientific reference, claiming among other things that 'the suspension' induced by drugs that block puberty 'is temporary and reversible', that recourse to such drugs 'allows [...].

Holland: if you block the development of girls and boys you push them to become trans
The protocol - pausing puberty to allow minors to 'choose' their sex - they invented. But even the Dutch now admit that in 9 out of 10 cases blockers no longer give time to 'decide' but are the start of the transition. A self-fulfilling prophecy. And that the effects of these drugs are by no means reversible
Amsterdam University Clinic UMC, a pioneer in the use of puberty blockers, has admitted that children taking these drugs may find themselves locked into increased medicalisation. The admission comes following the publication earlier this month of a new retrospective study examining 20 years of hormonal interventions known as the 'Dutch protocol', conducted on 1,766 children and adolescents between 1972 and 2018 at the famed Amsterdam clinic and published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine. But [...]
