Can Sanity Prevail In Your School?

For years, schools have been promoting gender ideology under the guise of kindness and “inclusion and belonging.” Children are encouraged to use pronouns and taught that they might be born in the wrong body.


What possibly began as an attempt to show acceptance has undermined the values of many and led to a “school-to-clinic pipeline” in the US (an outlier to the rest of the Western world). This has confused children and led to an exponential rise in gender dysphoria.


Despite calls for a systematic review of the evidence, the medical establishment (seemingly held hostage by transgender activists) has been pushing gender affirming care.


As promised, the Trump administration has signed a series of executive orders to address this. On January 28, 2025, President Trump took a key step towards banning gender affirming care for minors by signing Executive Order (EO) 14187—“Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation.”


The EO was an essential first step in exposing the harmful effects of this belief system. Directed by this EO, on May 1, 2025, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released its 400-page report, “The Treatment for Pediatric Gender Dysphoria Review of Evidence and Best Practices.” This report includes a comprehensive review of the evidence and best practices for treating children with gender dysphoria. A Foreword and Executive Summary can be found here:





The HHS review examined several systematic reviews and concluded that the evidence supporting 'gender-affirming care' is of 'very low' quality." This is consistent with the conclusions of the UK’s Cass Review.


Key Findings of the HHS Review

  • The review identifies "serious concerns" about sex change interventions on children and finds no substantial evidence to support gender affirming care.

  • The rise in youth gender dysphoria and the corresponding demand for medical interventions have occurred against the backdrop of a broader mental health crisis affecting adolescents. The relationship between these two phenomena remains a subject of scientific controversy.

  • The World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) deceived the medical community, abusing their trust, and put doctors in the terrible position of potentially harming their patients.

  • No area of medicine is "special." All areas of medicine must be subject to the same standards of evidence-based medicine. In other words, evidence-based medicine must be equally applied to all health ailments, with no exceptions. The quality of all of the US health care depends on this.



Will your school leave the transgender cult?

Now that there is an extensive review of the irreversible harms associated with pediatric gender medicine, it’s clear that activists have been pushing an agenda.


As described by Do No Harm, “Pro-’gender-affirming care’ activists are shutting down debate, spreading misinformation, bullying those who express concern, and seeking to discredit actual scientific evidence detailing the risks of this ‘gender-affirming care.’”


The recently released HHS review gives schools cover to do what is right—keep biological boys out of girls' sports, allow children to be children, and respect their development.


What would it take for your school to honestly acknowledge the evidence and break free from these misguided ideologies? If your schools continue to promote gender ideology, even in light of evidence-based medicine, consider sharing the following resources.


Resources To Share With Your Schools

Sunday, May 18 Event at MIT
















Hosted by DIAG and LGB Courage Coalition, “This thought-provoking forum at MIT brings together leading voices to delve into complex ethical and legal questions. The format will be a speaker panel for everyone concerned about gender ideology in schools featuring Jamie Reed, Lisa Selin Davis, Vernadette Broyles, Sara Stockton, and Simon Amaya Price. The panel is in person and on Zoom, and there is a Keynote dinner at Glass House afterwards.

According to Sim, “For someone who is new to the debate on pediatric gender medicine, the Review provides a comprehensive introduction which is detailed enough for a medical professional but still accessible to a layperson. For those who are already familiar with the issues, the Review is a ready reference to the most current research. It would be naïve to expect that the thorough research and careful arguments in the Review will cause any of the current supporters of pediatric gender medicine to change their minds. However, that was never its intention. The real value of the Review is as a resource for reaching the leadership in the medical and mental health community who, up to now, have been willing to leave this matter in the hands of a small group of activists. The excuse for deferring to specialized subcommittees on the issue of childhood gender dysphoria is that it is very rare. However, the Review points out that a recent study of private insurance data published in Jama Pediatrics found that around 1 in 1000 American 17-year olds in the insurers’ records received a prescription for cross-sex hormones between 2018 and 2022. This is comparable to the prevalence of Type 2 diabetes, which has been described as an epidemic. If the leadership of the medical and mental health professions want to get politicians out of medicine, they need to stand up to the political activists within their organization.”

Sapir explains that “Parents who have consented to these drugs for their children love their kids dearly, but they’ve consented under entirely false pretenses. The doctors who’ve advised them say that puberty blockers are known to improve mental health — that they are even life-saving — and that they are fully reversible and just give kids “time to think.” None of this is true.” “Parents should never have been put in the position of having to decide whether to “allow” their kids to go through puberty. Those who would put the onus on parents are letting charlatans in the medical profession off the hook. Puberty is difficult for all teens, and it is not a disease. Puberty blockers offer teens in distress — especially girls with history of sexual abuse, autistic kids and gay kids — false hope by casting puberty as optional.Puberty is a rite of passage from childhood into adulthood, responsible for the development of the body’s major organs and systems and not just its external sexual features. Puberty blockers rob children of their right to an open future.
