The Truth About Transgenderism


Great Americans, let’s be very clear and honest: The issue of transgenderism is not one of identity, but of reality. It’s about recognizing the immutable truth of biological sex, a truth that has been under assault by the radical left and their relentless push to redefine what it means to be human. As a staunch conservative, I stand firmly on the side of science, reason, and the natural order. Transgenderism, as it is promoted today, is not a celebration of diversity—it is a dangerous departure from reality, and it’s time we call it what it is: a mental disorder.

The Science of Biological Sex

First, let’s establish the facts. Biological sex is determined at conception by our DNA. It is binary: male or female. This is not a matter of opinion but of scientific fact. The American College of Pediatricians, a reputable organization committed to the well-being of children, has stated unequivocally that human sexuality is an objective biological binary trait (Source). Attempts to deny this truth are not progressive—they are regressive, flying in the face of centuries of scientific understanding.

Transgenderism as a Mental Health Issue

The medical community has long recognized that gender dysphoria—the distress a person experiences due to a mismatch between their biological sex and their perceived gender identity—is a mental health condition. The American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) classifies gender dysphoria as a diagnosable condition (Source). This is not a judgment but a recognition that individuals experiencing such distress require compassionate care, not affirmation of a false reality.

It’s important to note that treating gender dysphoria does not mean validating a person’s desire to change their biological sex. Instead, it involves therapy and support to help individuals reconcile with their biological reality. Tragically, the left’s push for “gender-affirming care” often leads to irreversible medical interventions, such as hormone therapy and surgeries, which can cause lifelong harm. This is not progress—it is exploitation.

The Dangers of the Transgender Ideology

The transgender ideology has infiltrated our schools, our media, and even our healthcare system. Children are being taught that they can choose their gender, a notion that is not only unscientific but deeply harmful. The Daily Signal, a trusted conservative news source, has reported on numerous cases where children as young as five are being encouraged to transition, often without their parents’ full understanding or consent. This is child abuse, plain and simple.

Furthermore, the push for transgender rights has led to the erosion of women’s rights. Biological men are being allowed to compete in women’s sports, use women’s restrooms, and even be housed in women’s prisons. This is not equality—it is an assault on the safety and dignity of women. As Ronald Reagan once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” We must protect the freedoms and rights of all, not just a vocal minority.

A Common Refrain

One thing you hear very often from transgender supporters is that transgenders have been around for a long time and they are not going anywhere. I am surely willing to agree and to stipulate that mentally ill people definitely have been around for a long time, and mental illness is not going anywhere. The only difference today is that a sick degenerate segment of society with no moral compass has now embraced mental illness as normality, and it attacks those who do not.

Another common refrain you hear from transgender supporters is to just let these mentally ill people be what they want to be because they are not hurting anybody else. After all, why should you and I care what someone else wants to be? This is another extremely naïve and ridiculous statement, because for one thing it does not address the mental illness, and for another thing it attacks the very core building block of society, which is the family. The family (i.e., mother, father, and children) has been the building block of every society since the first civilization. That is just a fact. When you destroy all sense of gender and authentic marriage and what a family is, you are essentially destroying the very foundation of society itself, and that is something that everybody should care about. (Please see our recent video Family is the Building Block of Society.)

The Common Sense Response

As patriots and realists, we conservative must stand firm against this ideological assault. We must advocate for policies that protect children, uphold the truth of biological sex, and provide genuine mental health support for those struggling with gender dysphoria. Organizations like the Family Research Council and the Heritage Foundation offer valuable resources and research on this issue.

I encourage you, my fellow Americans, to educate yourselves. Search for the truth, not the narrative pushed by the mainstream media. Look into the stories of detransitioners—individuals who have come to regret their decision to transition and are now speaking out about the harm they’ve experienced. Their voices deserve to be heard.

Conclusion

Transgenderism is not a civil rights issue—it is a mental health issue. It is not about love and acceptance—it is about truth and reality. As conservatives, we must defend the natural order, protect the innocent, and speak the truth, no matter how unpopular it may be. Let us stand together, guided by reason and compassion, to preserve the future of our great nation.
