take a look at the statistics, especially in the United States, through the Williams Institute,
00:00:04.420
it was 0.06% of the population of, you know, children consider themselves transgender. It's
00:00:10.520
up. Last time I checked, it was almost over 2%, 3%. So there's a contagion that's going on. So if
00:00:18.180
this is really, you know, an anomaly, then it shouldn't be increasing at that rate. So from
00:00:24.680
that point of view, I don't understand why people are not more concerned with the rise in children
00:00:29.500
believing that they're, they're transgender. And the thing is, is that medical transition comes
00:00:34.000
with massive complications. People don't talk about that. They don't talk about early onset
00:00:38.600
osteoporosis. They don't talk about the increased in, in mental illness. They don't talk about the
00:00:43.280
heart disease with testosterone. They don't talk about the pulmonary embolisms. They don't talk
00:00:47.320
about the vitamin deficiency. You know, the fact that you could start losing your teeth after 10
00:00:52.180
years because your, your body, you know, stops being able to absorb vitamins. And the truth is,
00:00:56.940
is that nobody really knows what happens to a body that medically transitions.
00:01:01.500
And the reason why we're pushing this on children is because, A, it really boosts social media,
00:01:10.380
It boosts nonprofits on both sides and the medical industry.
