Thank you for the important work you are doing; it is most impressive & I plan to upgrade my subscription this week. Quick question: Have you written or done videos on the subject of male genital mutilation, e.g., circumcision done for religious or cultural reasons? If so would be grateful for a link to same. Thanks again.

I have not written about it but I am against it. My dad was very clear to me the harmful impact it had on him, once I was old enough to ask about it. And as a bronze star lesbian, I've had experiences with both. The idea that it has no negative effects is false. You can see the keratinization.

I had a male friend who was a serious anti-circumcision advocate, and I learned a lot from him about how terrible male circumcision is and how unnecessary. Seems both male and female genital mutilation should be abolished, but there is serious religious practice involved so it tends to be ignored. Just like the Religion of Trans, they practice it on children who can't possibly give consent. It's one of the most ugly human traits, and it would be great if one day our species could evolve out of this need to disfigure children's genitals.

She says she "knows several trans kids...and have colleagues who treat them..." This is her reasoning for why she is perfectly competent to treat trans kids! Wow. So that makes me a concert pianist, because I know several skillful pianists and I also know a professional piano tuner.

she doesn't say how her colleagues are 'treating' them. this matters.

testosterone is a scheduled drug. a doctor i know had his testosterone prescribing privileges taken away as part of investigation around his opiate prescribing practices. i think what this means is that extra paperwork has to be done/kept by doctor's office. they have to have records. pharmacy would also keep them. see the following.

Featured snippet from the web

Testosterone is a steroid, so it is classed as a Schedule III controlled substance. Other Schedule III drugs include non-narcotic medications such as ketamine and buprenorphine, as well as opioids like Tylenol with codeine. "Because of this classification, Plume's ability to offer testosterone is limited in some states.

God ,I really feel now that HELL couldn't be worse than this. It's like the West has lost its mind or been taken over by aliens. I'm 75 and my children and grandchildren are all grown up but I'm now terrified for my great grandchildren who are still very young. The future of humanity's at massive risk from every single one of these evil ideologies and the demonic minds who devised them 👎🙏😭🤮
