A whistleblower wakeup call on doctors, schools pushing child mutilation

Where do girls who have had their breasts removed in pursuit of becoming a man go when they have changed their mind about the endeavor? And what do those who performed the surgery tell them?

These are questions whistleblower Jamie Reed attempts to answer in a Free Press piece. Married to a trans man, Reed describes herself as a 42-year-old St. Louis native, a queer woman, and politically to the left of Bernie Sanders. Those details are important. Until November, Reed was a case manager at the Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children s Hospital.

Reed s allegations are deeply disturbing and horrifying. She charts the astronomical rise in proclaimed transgenderism among youth in general and teenage girls in particular. When she started at the center, she received about 10 calls a month from families with kids declaring themselves transgender. When I left there were 50, and about 70% of the new patients were girls. Sometimes clusters of girls arrived from the same high school.

The contagion she describes is terrifying: The girls who came to us had many comorbidities: depression, anxiety, ADHD, eating disorders, obesity. Many were diagnosed with autism, or had autism-like symptoms.

Much of what Reed reports is not exactly new. Abigail Shrier laid out what was happening in her seminal 2021 book Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters. Mary Harrington has written invaluable updates in The Post.

What Reed represents is our collective What now? moment. Her details of the drugs effects are a horror movie. Testosterone causes the clitoris to enlarge, extend past the vulva and chafe painfully when rubbed against jeans. There were ripped vaginal canals. A boy was put on a cancer drug as a puberty blocker and ended up with liver toxicity.

Maybe putting children through sexual transition is not such a good idea. This, notwithstanding the Pritzker money behind it, or all the hospitals making big bank on it, or all the media outlets promoting the trans agenda. Just a thought.
