President Biden’s administration has released a series of documents encouraging gender-reassignment surgery and hormone treatments for minors.
The Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Population Affairs released a document Thursday titled “Gender Affirming Care and Young People.” The same day, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National Child Traumatic Stress Network – another subset of the HHS – released a parallel document titled, “Gender-Affirming Care Is Trauma-Informed Care.”
The HHS documents describe what it calls appropriate treatments for transgender adolescents, including: “‘Top’ surgery – to create male-typical chest shape or enhance breasts;” and “‘Bottom’ surgery – surgery on genitals or reproductive organs, facial feminization or other procedures.”
“Medical and psychosocial gender affirming healthcare practices have been demonstrated to yield lower rates of adverse mental health outcomes, build self-esteem, and improve overall quality of life for transgender and gender diverse youth,” the OPA release states.
The NCTSN document is far longer than the brief outline provided by the OPA, but reiterates the same thought process and explanation for minors receiving alterations to their genitalia.
“For transgender and nonbinary children and adolescents, early gender-affirming care is crucial to overall health and well-being as it allows the child or adolescent to focus on social transitions and can increase their confidence while navigating the healthcare system,” the NCTSN wrote in their release. “It may include evidence-based interventions such as puberty blockers and gender-affirming hormones.”
The NCTSN document goes out of its way to assure the public that the use of gender-affirming methods such as surgery and hormone replacement are not child abuse – most likely in response to recent policy decision in Texas that made such treatments illegal.
“Providing gender-affirming care is neither child maltreatment nor malpractice. The child welfare system in the US, charged with “improv(ing) the overall health and well-being of our nation’s children and families,” should not be used to deny care or separate families working to make the best decisions for their children’s well-being. There is no scientifically sound research showing negative impacts from providing gender-affirming care,” the NCTSN added.
The White House released a video to coincide with the new policies featuring President Biden speaking on the issue of transgender children.
Biden told the parents of transgender children that “affirming your child’s identity is one of the most powerful things you can do to keep them safe.”
Biden also indicated that his administration would fight state laws that limit how transgender athletes may compete, after transgender University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas drew national attention at the NCAA championships.
Such state laws are “simply wrong” and “hateful,” Biden said, adding that his administration is “standing up for transgender equality in the classroom, on the playing field, at work, in our military, in our housing and health care systems – everywhere.”
A Texas judge earlier this month blocked the state from investigating parents who provide medical treatments to help their transgender children transition, according to reports. .
Gov. Greg Abbott has called gender-affirming treatments “child abuse” and ordered Texas Child Protective Services to investigate any reported cases. Attorney General Ken Paxton also issued a legal opinion coming to the same conclusion, according to Houston Public Media.
In ordering the temporary injunction, District Court Judge Amy Clark Meachum said the investigations exceeded Abbott’s constitutional authority, noting that such instances had never been investigated before his order.

Lying evil sack of crap! Hell is waiting for you, joe!
I SAID…sick, evil pile of filth! Hell is waiting for you, joe!
People are not “born the wrong gender”. They are twisted and groomed by sick, perverted, woke progressive parents and teachers. Mental illness CAN be induced in people (PTSD is a notable example). Time to start cracking down on parents and teachers pushing their trans agenda so that kids can grow up NORMAL.
When is this sickening agenda going to be ended. These monsters need to be removed and jailed. Stay out of people’s lives. Our children are not your business. Stop forcing you perversions on our families.
I am embarrassed for my country, to think that we have a president, a loose term for what is in office right now, but no wonder when he has surrounded himself with perverts! This is like an alien movie from the past. My children are my children, and praise God, we raised them to be the children that God Himself presented us with🙏🙏🙏. They were allowed to be themselves, played like kids are supposed to, went to school to learn the three “r’s”, history, science, etc. Not the garbage that is being forced on our youngsters today. A child is who he or she was born to be! There are males and females! Never should anyone be forced to doubt that, esp. being coerced in grammar school, that’s elementary school to you who have no idea the difference, to think of such idiotic policies as gender identity. The words bandied about these days are definitely non-words, and are better removed from dictionaries and school curriculum. Mr. Magoo needs to deal with important issues that he hasn’t a clue what they are, issues like inflation (only he has brought that about acting like a petulant child, still blaming President Trump for issues, even now), border control, racism (that has made more people racist than EVER before, Afghanistan, to name a few. His choice of a VP is a joke and should embarrass all black women and children who looked upon the new VP as a role model! What a sad state of affairs to place this kind of propaganda, lynching, what a joke? Lynching is not a racist thing. Been around many years . It was a form of punishment in the old West for all who broke the law. So sad what is happening in this once great country. Y’all happy with your political choices – Biden, maybe the squad, AOC, Bernie, Pete, Waters?? Hope so.
And insurance will pay, which is going to make everyone’s rate go up even more, and more than half of us can’t even afford insurance as it is. He is not a leader, he is a destroyer, I’ll be glad when this nightmare is over! Hey Nancy, I could use some inside trading information, since you work for us could you share? They are all just a bunch of criminals that need to be removed and prosecuted to the fullest. No president has ever done so much damage in so little time, I can’t even imagine 3 more years of his shit. He’s done more than enough to be impeached, why isn’t anyone doing anything?????
It figures pedo Joe would be pushing this sick agenda. I can’t wait until we get all of the evil horrible people pushing this crap out of office. May they all rot in hell.
I’m nonBidenary , I hate his guts. He needs a big black dick in his mouth to shut him up
I think his statement says that the parents are the ones that want to choose gender identity. I watched a clip of a parent standing up and saying that their 2 year old daughter wants to be a boy. That child is still pooping their pants and doesn’t know anything about sex identity. This is the parents that are going to do psychological harm to their child! Yes, this is child abuse!
LET’S GO BRANDON!
This actually answered my problem, thank you!
