Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, November 26, 2025

Perhaps no issue in modern society is more divisive or emotional than whether children should receive sex-change treatments. Yet Nov. 18 could very well be remembered as the day when that debate was largely settled. That's the day when the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services issued its final report on the medical evidence regarding child sex-change treatments. HHS released an early version of the report in May, but in the intervening months, it directly asked skeptical physicians and medical associations to scrutinize its conclusions. Amazingly, none of them could disprove HHS' conclusion ...

How is this an issue that merits your attention? Family member? Friend?

Why is it and homoeroticism a favorite topic of DR righties?

"A day that will live in infamy."

Tomorrow we're all gonna wake up and it's gonna be Thanksgiving, pretty much the same as always.

And next Nov. 18, no one is going to care about the anniversary.

Settle down.

How is this "homoeroticism"?

This is a topic of interest for anyone who truly cares about the well-being of children.

It's a ginned up phony wedge issue, only ever brought up by fascists, to boost fascist engagement.

Fascists always need an out-group to malign and marginalize.

Trans people are one such group.

So, do parents know what's best for their transgender children?

Or does the State know what's best?

Tell us, JeffJ.

Fascists will never, ever admit that the children are actually the ones who know what's best for the children.

#3. You always say that but rarely explain why. I recall you saying that chemical castration and surgical mutilation should not be performed on minors. The HHS scientifically validates that position.

Let's see this "scientific" "validation."
Pretty sure you're making it up.

Trans are less than 2 percent of the population... which means they are a great candidate as shiny objects to Distract Stupid Trumpers from their pockets being picked by Donald Fing Trump.

#11. So that makes it okay to engage in medical malfunction practice because the affected population is a low enough number by your accounting?

#12 Of course you ignore #9.

You haven't actually established that gender affirming care is medical malpractice.

Viagra and Botox are gender affirming care. Do they need to be banned too? Or do you only have a problem with gender affirming for trans people?

#12 Try to not be so transparently** an orange sucker.

** Transparently does not normally mean a parent who is transgender. But in your case, it just might fit. I report, you decide.

Meanwhile ...

There are several threads that have nothing to do with Rrjmp. At what point do you start spamming them with the same garbage you are spamming this thread?

Yeah... you're "transparent," Perry "bell boi" Mason:

Is LOL appropriate?

Or is HaHaHa more fitting?

Enquiring minds want to know.

#17 Ask your dermatologist for the modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS).

But prepare yourself for the results.

They might not be what you're expecting.

You're welcome.
