I am grateful for Rep. Thierry's stance, bravely standing up for children and for not letting activist bullying keep her quiet. We need more representatives and senators to follow her example. As a parent, who does not agree with the gender activist agendas, I express deep appreciation for Rep. Thierry's articulate understanding of the issues and a willingness to stand strong in her values. I'm so glad she did not fall into the "progressive abyss".
From the Physiological Plausibility post on PITT summarizing WPATH's 2022 conference, "Where do these professionals want to take our children? Leibowitz promoted screening for gender for all kids and developing their gender literacy and competence while preventing them from caving into the gender binary. The follow-up discussion said that gender is crystallized in children by the time they are four years old and early transition would help trans kids avoid trauma and minority stress. Another psychiatrist chimed in that cis people also need to come to terms with their gender. In his presentation, John Strang, Director of Gender and Autism at a medical school, noted that he rarely saw individuals with intellectual disabilities seeking to transition, which led him to express concern that this population is underserved. He encouraged psychologists to rehearse with their autistic patients so that these kids can communicate their gender needs and goals to doctors, and he then shared resources directed to autistic kids who are trans-identified."

In a better world, the text of this post would be cut and pasted into an prosecutor's indictment of the speakers for gender-identity related crimes.
Around minute 20 the sound goes out
We just fixed this. Should be better now. Thank you!
