Ruth Institute President Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, Ph.D., applauded a transgender center case manager for exposing what’s being done to adolescents in the name of “gender reassignment.”
Jamie Reed, formerly of the Washington University Transgender Center at St Louis Children’s Hospital, called “transitioning” children “morally and medically appalling.”
“We need more trans industry whistleblowers describing how children are being abused and manipulated,” Morse said.
Reed, who calls herself a “queer progressive” married to a “trans man,” and who worked at the Center for four years, testified about the trans industry exploiting children.
Little was needed for a child to start a process which could permanently cripple their bodies and minds. Sometimes it only took a letter from a therapist who saw the prospective patient once or twice.
“To make it more efficient for the therapists, we offered them a template for how to write a letter in support of transitioning,” Reed said.
“Being put on powerful doses of testosterone or estrogen – enough to try to trick the body into mimicking the opposite sex – affects the rest of the body. I doubt that any parent who’s ever consented to give their kid testosterone (a lifelong treatment) knows that they’re also possibly signing their kid up for blood pressure medication, cholesterol medication and perhaps sleep apnea and diabetes,” Reed said.
She added: “Our patients were told about some of the side effects, including sterility. But after working at the Center, I came to believe that teenagers are simply not capable of fully grasping what it means to make the decision to become infertile while still a minor.”
Morse remarked: “Ms. Reed's comments show how deeply the medical profession has been corrupted by the transgender ideology. Doctors and the whole medical support team are expected to go along with the fiction that medicine can change the sex of the body. Ms. Reed lost her job over her dissent. The Ruth Institute is grateful for her bravery.”
