Transcript

00:00:00.000 My name is Scott Nugent. I'm a lesbian and I'm a trans man.
00:00:07.000 But my most important role is that of a parent to three incredible children.
00:00:13.000 I'm a mother, a woman who has given birth and carried life.
00:00:19.000 I'm here today to put an end to the idea that medically transitioning children is about human rights.
00:00:25.000 It is not. It's about money.
00:00:29.000 Market research predicts that gender affirming care will generate more than five billion dollars a year in less than a decade.
00:00:37.000 The truth is, is that medical transition is experimental, dangerous, and it doesn't cure anything.
00:00:45.000 In fact, your question, there's only seven studies that stated that medically transitioning children is beneficial.
00:00:52.000 And every single one of them has either been modified with not enough time or participants or oops, we were sorry.
00:01:00.000 Yet these are the pamphlets and the studies that are still given to parents currently.
00:01:05.000 And of course, society doesn't know that because you don't cover it.
00:01:09.000 We now have children's hospitals all over Europe, halting and banning all childhood medical transition, calling it the worst medical scandal in modern history.
00:01:23.000 Yet here in the United States, we have bigots everywhere.
00:01:31.000 We have transgender people.
00:01:33.000 We have gays and lesbians trying to talk.
00:01:37.000 And people that are not trans and not gay and lesbian are calling us bigots.
00:01:46.000 I underwent close to one million dollars worth of surgeries and hormone therapies to change from Kelly to Scott, a trans man.
00:01:55.000 And then I almost died in the process.
00:01:58.000 And I certainly have cut many, many years off of my life.
00:02:03.000 In fact, I probably won't live long enough to meet my grandkids because I still, to this day, get reoccurring infections.
00:02:11.000 Nobody knows why.
00:02:13.000 But again, 95% of all medical transition is experimental, except for top surgery.
00:02:20.000 We have no idea what's going to happen to these kids because it's never been studied.
00:02:27.000 But we are seeing early onset osteoporosis.
00:02:31.000 We are seeing hearts and lungs the size of 12 year olds.
00:02:36.000 And if you couple that with the only long term study that followed these transgender people for 30 years in Sweden.
00:02:45.000 Sweden, Sweden is the leading country for transgender medicine.
00:02:52.000 Two months ago, they halted and stopped all medicalization of children.
00:02:59.000 Do you know why?
00:03:02.000 Well, there's a documentary that you won't find here in the United States, but they're finding something in addition.
00:03:08.000 Girls' spines are not fusing together properly while on puberty blockers.
00:03:14.000 We have 15 year olds walking like this for the rest of their lives, and they won't live past 30.
00:03:21.000 But you say he's a bigot.
00:03:25.000 You see, I tried to kill off my female self because I was sold a lie.
00:03:32.000 I was sold that I was actually a man trapped in a woman's body.
00:03:37.000 That my masculine traits and my strong personality were proof that I was really a man.
00:03:44.000 I was told that all my pain and self-loathing would magically disappear.
00:03:51.000 If only I pumped my body with testosterone, removed my breasts, and altered my genitalia.
00:03:59.000 I was tricked at 42 at a vulnerable place.
00:04:04.000 One day I thought, God, maybe I'm born in the wrong body.
00:04:08.000 I was married to a woman who just despised being a lesbian.
00:04:12.000 And one comment of maybe I was born in the wrong body.
00:04:17.000 Next week I was sitting in front of a trans woman therapist who asked me, how long have you been dressing like a man?
00:04:23.000 At 42, that sentence has changed the trajectory of my life.
00:04:30.000 You guys don't seem to understand that I'm not going to meet my grandkids because of this crap.
00:04:37.000 And you call him a bigot.
00:04:39.000 You see, I was perfect just the way I was.
00:04:42.000 If only I was told, and we tell girls, because it's happening to girls way more than boys,
00:04:49.000 is that there is no one way for a woman to be a woman.
00:04:54.000 And there's no one way for a man to be a man.
00:04:58.000 Why don't we start affirming that it's okay to be who they are?
00:05:03.000 No.
00:05:04.000 What we're doing is we're pushing a medical process that if a child gets on it at 14 and lives to 85,
00:05:14.000 that generates $1.5 million in synthetic hormone.
00:05:19.000 Do you guys get that?
00:05:22.000 That doesn't even cover complications.
00:05:26.000 It doesn't cover surgery.
00:05:29.000 And yet you call him a bigot.
00:05:33.000 And you don't talk to me.
00:05:35.000 You show all of the people, trans women are women.
00:05:41.000 We need to let children have the time to learn to love their natural bodies and embrace their differences.
00:05:53.000 Because the truth is, is that the kids that are wanting to medically transition are the most vulnerable parts of our society.
00:06:03.000 They are the ones that are same-sex attracted.
00:06:07.000 This bigot.
00:06:08.000 He's trying to protect gays and lesbians.
00:06:10.000 Future gays and lesbians.
00:06:11.000 But you call them a bigot.
00:06:13.000 They are children that are mentally gifted.
00:06:17.000 They are children that have ADHD.
00:06:20.000 They are children that are mentally ill.
00:06:24.000 They are all the kids that don't belong.
00:06:28.000 You're robbing that time that they need to gain a thick skin.
00:06:36.000 Because at 25, being different, how many sane people have done anything major in this world?
00:06:45.000 They're all different people.
00:06:47.000 But you don't realize that until you're a CEO at 25.
00:06:50.000 You're stealing that from them.
00:06:53.000 With gender interventions, there are no take backs.
00:07:00.000 Puberty blockers are not merely a pause button.
00:07:05.000 In fact, the corporation that's telling you puberty blockers are safe, that generates and produces all that puberty blockers that they say is a pause, it doesn't hurt.
00:07:16.000 In 2003, they were sued by the US government, deemed a criminal enterprise for false advertising and bribery.
00:07:28.000 They paid $874 million like that.
00:07:35.000 The biggest payout at the time.
00:07:39.000 More than Oxycontin at the time.
00:07:41.000 This is a company that doesn't have the money to run studies on puberty blockers for children?
00:07:48.000 Or is it that they know there is no doctor in the world that would sign on it that it's safe?
00:07:55.000 Shame on you for not covering him and me.
00:07:58.000 In fact, Lupron has over 10,000 complaints from children that use them as precocious puberty.
00:08:13.000 Testosterone, it's not reversible.
00:08:20.000 Her son, four months on estrogen.
00:08:25.000 And he might not be able to have babies at 14 because you won't cover it.
00:08:31.000 And you call him a bigot.
00:08:33.000 I ask this question.
00:08:35.000 Are you really going to put stock in the AAP that follows WPATH, which is supposedly the baseline for care?
00:08:44.000 An entity that not only accepts, pushes the idea that units is a gender for minors.
00:08:54.000 An agency that is supposed to be the baseline for care has never held up in any court of law anywhere.
00:09:06.000 Yet you won't cover it.
00:09:07.000 You call him a bigot.
00:09:09.000 So I ask that you do the hard thing today.
00:09:11.000 I know this is your industry, and God forbid if you step outside of your house, your family, your Republican, Democrat, Conservative, Republican, and do the right thing.
00:09:24.000 But if you do, I'll tell you one thing.
00:09:29.000 You will be called a bigot today.
00:09:34.000 But those bigots in history will go down as heroes.
00:09:40.000 So are you in the media that can save these kids?
00:09:43.000 Are you going to do the right thing?
00:09:45.000 And cover?
00:09:46.000 And investigate?
00:09:48.000 And ask questions?
00:09:50.000 And interview everybody?
00:09:52.000 Or are you just going to sit there and record...
