When reporting a post, the user can specify if the post they are reporting breaks a site or circle rule.
The site rules are available here: https://ovarit.com/wiki/rules
But when selecting a site rule violation, there is no additional drop-down for which site rule was broken.
I assume circle rules are in the sidebar of a circle and up to the moderators to create and write up? Edit: The circle rule report option does provide an additional drop-down list of rules.
On social media sites like Reddit and Tumblr, when a user goes to report a post, the interface asks them what rule does the post break.
I think this is beneficial for several reasons.
It helps the admins/moderators identify what rule-breaking behavior is potentially in the post faster.
It helps the user easily reference the rules so they can verify if the post they are reporting does actually break a rule or not.
Adding an "Other" box with a text input at the end would help allow a user to explain why they are reporting the post if they feel it's ambiguous. Edit: This already exists, idk how I missed this!
The way they say it never happens implies that they agree that these practices are harmful and immoral and shouldn't be done.
If they are harmful and immoral, then they should be banned, so they can stop whining about bans on transing children since they agree they shouldn't be done.
"I refuse to ban this thing that totally isn't happening!"
I'm amazed she wasn't suspended. I was just kicked off AGAIN for saying men can't become women. They can identify as women, but cannot become women. That's now hate speech.
lol, one visit to the r/detrans subreddit debunked this whole claim and many others for me. it in fact was what peaked me.
with the nature of reddit, however, I doubt they're going to have a community there for too long.
Good resource, many people don't believe or know it's happening even if they disagree with the practice! Thanks for putting this up
In a TED Talk given in 2018-19 in which Tandy Aye, MD - Medical Director of Stanford Children's Hospital Pediatric and Adolescent Gender Clinic - "argues for why it may be more beneficial for surgery to occur" considerably earlier than age 18 to remove the testicles and penises of boys whose parents and doctors have medically transed them by putting them on GnRH analogs to block their development in puberty of adolescence, followed by Big Pharma estrogen.
Aye talks about a 12-year-old patient, Avery, whom she describes as "a girl with a penis" who "identified [as the opposite sex] as a pre-schooler" and was put on "pubertal blockers" as soon he began showing the first signs of adolescent puberty and will inevitably be put on estrogen in the near future.
"Her parents knew that these signs of puberty [that will cause "her testes to produce testosterone" and "her testes and penis to enlarge"] needed to be stopped... and so estrogen can be added...
So in Avery's case, she's gonna want estrogen. And later on, she can decide if gender affirmation surgery is right for her or not. Gender affirmation surgery is the removal of ovaries, uterus, penis or testes so that you can be physically aligned with the gender in which you identify... Right now, gender affirmation surgery [to the genitals] is reserved only for those who are 18 years of age or older. However, for someone like Avery, would it be more beneficial to undergo gender affirmation surgery [to remove the testicles and reconfigure the penis] before the age of 18? 18 is the age of majority, and many states have laws that prevent sterilization or the permanent removal of reproductive capability [of minors under 18]. However, these laws were made at a time when people like Avery were not being considered...
Aye goes on to promote doing surgeries to castrate and remove and invert the penises of young males like Avery before they turn 18. Aye says that laws which prohibit surgical sterilization of minors are pointless in the case of children like Avery anyway, because the puberty blockers and estrogen they were put on as children have already made them permanently sterilized. Aye says in a cheerful, boastful tone of voice I find frightening and disturbing:
Avery's reproductive capability to be a biological parent has been eliminated [already]. Avery's testes are non-functional! And in medicine, don't we often recommend the removal of non-functional organs, like an appendix?
I think a lot of girls are not making this declaration until their first period or they are well into puberty, making the first claim a matter of technicality. Lupron can be used for a variety of things including the supression of menstruation. If puberty has already been completed, then technically you're not using a puberty blocker.
I suspect the number of kids who are truly on "puberty blockers" is not indicative of the number of kids making these trans declarations.
I have read birth control pills are also an option for girls who want to suppress periods which is achieving the same ends, but with a different medication. I think lupron or similar are more often used, though... easier to have an infrequent injection than a daily pill.
With or without actual surgical procedures, encouraging kids to socially "transition," using boy names, boy pronouns, wearing boy clothes - although not a single one of the girls I know ACTUALLY dreses like a boy, they all dress like they read the latest enby fashion pages on the internet... they all look like girls who want to be special and unique... like they raided the "technically neutral but no guy would ever wear that" section of hot topic and slapped on a pronoun pin to complete the look... it leaves them fixated on this identity, it stunts them from coming to terms with being girls, it makes it very hard for them to later walk it back and change their mind. If you spend 3-4 years convincing everyone around you that you're a boy and counting down the days till you'e 18 and can walk into Planned Parenthood and actually begin to transition... they're basically being funneled into surgery. Whether or not that takes place when they are minors, no steps are being taken to even explore the notion of changing course. It would be like going to high school and everyone telling you you're going to be a doctor, you need to go to med school for the honor of the family, everyone is counting on you, etc... it doesn't make you a doctor, but it also doesn't leave you feeling like you have any say in the matter.
To add to the list of notable cases: Today, Helen Webberly - the UK physician who founded the online service Gender GP, which prescribes "puberty blockers" and exogenous hormone to children and adolescents without ever examining them or meeting them in person - posted a thread on Twitter defending her decision to prescribe puberty blockers and/or testosterone to girls as young as 11 and 12. Webberley's actions caused her to be investigated and sanctioned by the General Medical Council, the body that oversees and regulates doctors in the UK. I've edited and made additions for clarity and accuracy:
2/ I was referred to the GMC in 2016 by Prof Hindmarsh and Prof Gary Butler at UCLH following my treatment of a 12 year old [female child who identifies as a] boy who had been started on puberty blockers via GIDS but then had been told he [sic] would not be able to start his male puberty until he was 16. [Meaning GIDS had told the child she could not be prescribed exogenous testosterone until she was 16.]
3/ I prescribed [the female child] testosterone at the age of 12 and [since then the child] has flourished. This is obviously not in line with UK practice, but is more in line with International best practice of ‘stages not ages’.
4/ During my investigation, the GMC added many more cases that they heard about and they finally brought two other trans patients to the final hearing. An 11 year old [female child] to whom I prescribed blockers and a 16 year old [female] to whom I prescribed testosterone.
9/ They [GMC] felt that one of their findings, regarding the extent to which I had discussed fertility options with the 11 year old [for whom I prescribed] on blockers, as opposed to with [the child's] mother, was so severe that they should suspend my practice for another two months.
10/ They also dictated that I should attend another GMC hearing in August to explain how I had ‘failed Patient C by not discussing with [11 year-old the child] the risks to [the child's] fertility before prescribing GnRHa treatment’.
11/ My firm belief is that I did not fail Patient C in any way, and that my care was correct and timely and potentially life-saving. I believe that I discussed fertility options with [the child's] Mum until she was happy, and that she had discussed this with [the child].
12/ For me to get my license back, I would have to publicly agree that I failed this patient, and I can’t do that. So I have lodged an appeal with the High Court for them to decide whether the Tribunal may have made an error in finding that I had failed in this regard.

It's like they have never heard of their literal most famous poster child, Jazz Jennings.
The ultimate hypocrisy is these people in one breath say minors don't get these procedures, then in the next demand "gender affirming care", opposed "conversion therapy", and demands that we "listen to children" because they know if they're trans when they're toddlers.
They also forget Britain's equally famous poster child for "child transition," Jackie Green, son of Mermaids' CEO Susie Green. Susie took Jackie to the US at age 12 to get him put on "puberty blockers," then several years later she took him to Thailand when he was 15 so surgeons could remove his testicles and flay and reconfigure his penis on his 16th birthday. In 2018, ITV made a television series "Butterfly" based on Jackie Green's story

In the USA, there's also Xavier Trinity Neal, a severely autistic little African American boy with pica disorder, a history of mutism and severe clinical depression who was transed at age 4 - and ever since has been used as a show pony by his attention-seeking mother, DeShanna. At age 12, Trinity became the first child put on "puberty blockers" paid for by Delaware Medicaid. Delaware Medicaid also paid for Neal's castration and genital surgery several years later:

Thanks to Trinity's "gender journey," his mum DeShanna has finally found her life purpose, and is now a FT "LGBTQ+" campaigner who specializes in promoting "child transition" and "trans rights." DeShanna, who has written a children's book about Trinity's transition published by Penguin, has made sure her efforts to turn Trinity into the African American version Jazz Jennings have been well documented by the press, and in great detail too. As is the case with Jazz's mother Jeanette, DeShanna Neal has revealed to the world a lot of information about Trinity and his three brothers that many parents would consider best kept private.
During lockdown, a photo spread and essay about the Neal family was published in which DeShanna revealed that both of Trinity's younger brothers, who are also severely autistic like Trinity, are on "gender journeys" too. DeShanna said the older boy, Hyperion, age 10, had come out as a "young trans woman," whilst the youngest, Thane, a 6-year old who reportedly "has several fits a day" due to problems with using the toilet, was gender fluid:
The captions under various photos are eye-opening and mind-boggling. They include the following revealing tidbits:

The wig worn in childhood byTrinity and later by Hyperion has recently been added to the state of Delaware's official collection of important historical artifacts:

I guess trans kids are so special their skulls are shaped differently so wigs for cis people won't fit them.
This is an incredibly damaged woman. She is turning her boys into girls to create the girlhood she was deprived of. The only think that has kept her from transing Lucien is he is already seen as special gets attention because of his musical ability, and now his loss of sight. Her comment that if he becomes blind music will be his only career option is just so offensive. Like there are no blind lawyers, teachers, etc.
This may seem like an inappropriate question, but do these children have fathers who have any role in their lives?
I think Lucien's loss of sight makes it unlikely that he'd have much or any interest in being transed because gender identity and gender ideology are so heavily focused on the visual. Gender identity is mostly about how people look, dress, wear their hair, groom themselves; the colors they like; and the fabrics whose appearance they prefer and are drawn to - things that usually only matter to people who can see. Trinity and the other boys in the Neal family who are fully sighted are the only ones who can be conned into getting all excited and obsessing over the colors pink and purple, rainbow wigs and rainbows generally, glitter, sequins, shiny fabrics, brightly colored nail varnish, face paint. Lucien, not so much.
In early press coverage of Trinity's "transition," DeShanna did have a male partner living in the home with her/them. But it wasn't clear whether he's the father of any of the boys. Also, the mum's male partner seems to have departed the scene pretty early on in the saga of the unhappy little boy Xavier being turned into the "trans girl" Trinity. The "man of the house" is only in some of the very early stories and interviews done when Trinity was still quite small. After that, mom's man partner is nowhere to be seen and there's no mention of him, either.
Maybe she went the sperm donor route with Thane.
Well he was 4. So his head was smaller than most of what you'd find in a wig store aimed at adut women. A good quality (believable) wig for a kid would typically be aimed at a child who had hairloss due to cancer... and thus look like real hair. But it seems like this kid didn't want a real hair wig... he wanted something flashy and wild and something that would not typically be made in kid's sizes. I feel like even if you went in a halloween store and bought a crazy colored wig, it wouldn't fit well on a 4yo's head.
One thing that is so batshit about all this is transgirls do NOT live like actual girls. Things have definitely changed recently with regard to kids coloring their hair but even still, you're not likely to find a 4yo with a completely unnatural hair color. I do know some parents who let their very young kids dye their hair but it's not the norm. Typical actual girls, even the girliest of them, do not normally insist on wearing nothing but the most over the top, spinny, tulley, glittery girly clothes 100% of the time. Little boys living as girls almost never pass the sniff test because everything they do is so over the top and not what most little girls actually do. They are more like tiny drag queens than little girls.
This is a tiny drag queen wig.
To have that many special needs children AND to be a munchie mom who transes her kids for a living. God it's horrific. No one around these kids went, waaaaait a second. None of this makes any fucking sense. This cult is insidious.
Eee gads! I’m going to come right out and say it; I really wonder if these kids would have any problems (aside from gender identity issues) if they were taken from her.
The 🚩 🚩 🚩 for MBP are flapping like crazy here.
According to press reports, Trinity's pica disorder was so severe when he was a young child that he ate a sizable portion of his wooden bed frame and chewed through a lot of his clothing too. Unhinged as this mother appears to be, I'm not sure that a malevolent mum alone can cause a young child to gnaw through non-food items like that.
Maybe. It just seems with so much on her plate already how would she even have time to fall into a gender cult?
The sad thing is, it’s likely that she’s getting more financial support from the public because of the gender stuff than she ever would have with just kids that had high needs.
Jennings had bottom surgery when only 17. It was on TV, so them saying no surgery is being done to minors is just goofy.
Don't forget Kim Petras either. He was on German tv before he even was famous for his singing career, talking about his transition and various medical treatments/surgeries for it.
