My pronouns are they/them, but for this meeting, I'm sharing that I use she/they/him. This often leads to complex discussions about gender, which we don't typically have. I once asked my father, "Do you know what it means to be a man?" He said no. Then, "Do you know what it means to be a woman?" Again, he said no. And that's where I'm at too. My womanhood isn't defined by childbearing or feminine behavior, and my manhood isn't about my genitalia. Understanding gender identity is a key part of being in the LGBTQ community.

I love talking about what it means to be non binary. I'm non binary. And so I use they, them, their pronouns. So when we think about non binary, really what we're talking about is people of a variety of gender diverse identities that are outside of the typical traditional gender binary. Man and woman is typically what we think about as the gender binary. So non binary folks are those of us who live within that, outside of that, beyond it, and essentially transcend it in some way. So it might be folks that feel like they're a combination of masculine and feminine or that they're entirely outside of that construct or that context altogether.

Michigan Medicine strives to be a safe, welcoming place for transgender individuals and to provide excellent health care regardless of gender. The goal of this video is to improve the comfort and competency of frontline staff in caring for transgender individuals. We will start by talking about gender identity, challenges the transgender community has faced in the health care system, and Michigan's policies regarding gender non-discrimination. The second half of this training is job specific. To discuss gender identity, it is important to understand the difference between sex and gender. Sex refers to one's reproductive organs, native hormones, and chromosomes, while gender identity refers to one's internal sense of gender, a person's basic sense of being a man or boy, a woman or girl, or another gender. Gender identity can be expressed by how individuals present themselves socially, including clothing, physical characteristics, speech, and mannerisms. All people, whether they are transgender or cisgender, meaning not transgender, have a gender identity and expression. Transgender is a term for individuals whose gender identity differs from the gender identity typically associated with their sex assigned at birth. There are many identities that fall under the umbrella of transgender. Transgender men, trans men, or trans masculine refer to people who are assigned female sex at birth but identify as men or masculine. Transgender women, trans women, or trans feminine refer to people who were assigned male sex at birth but identify as women or feminine. Other individuals may identify as genderqueer, agender, genderfluid, two spirited, bigender, or another identity that does not fit neatly into the categories of men or women. All major American medical societies, including the American Medical Association and American Psychological Association, endorse gender affirming care as the standard of care for transgender individuals. This means caring for people in a way that supports their gender transition and gender identity. Transgender people may undergo any one of a number of gender affirming medical interventions, including hormonal therapies like estrogen, testosterone, or hormone blockers, and surgical treatment to change body contours or genitalia. However, it is important to note that one does not have to undergo any medical or surgical treatment to be transgender. Some people are easily read as the gender they affirm while others are visibly gender non conforming or androgynous appearing.

Exposing the Reality of the Transgender Craze in Teen Girls | Abigail Shrier | WOMEN | Rubin Report
Guests: Abigail Shrier
reSee.it Podcast Summary
In the last decade, there has been a significant increase in teenage girls without prior gender dysphoria identifying as transgender, often influenced by peers and social media. Between 2016 and 2017, requests for gender surgeries among young women in the U.S. quadrupled. Abigail Shrier, author of *Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters*, discusses this alarming trend, emphasizing the lack of medical oversight in the current affirmative care model, which encourages doctors to affirm a teenager's self-diagnosis without thorough evaluation. Shrier highlights that many of these girls, often from supportive backgrounds, are experiencing mental health issues and find validation in transitioning. She argues that the current medical regime lacks safeguards, leading to potentially irreversible decisions made by young individuals. The influence of social media and the allure of being part of an oppressed minority contribute to this phenomenon. Parents, particularly those who are politically progressive, often feel helpless and fear losing custody if they question their child's decision to transition. Shrier notes that many parents are blindsided by the rapid changes in their children's identities and the aggressive push from activists and educators. The conversation around gender identity has become a cultural battleground, with significant implications for women's rights and the experiences of transgender individuals.

Restoring Medical Integrity, Evidence, & Ethics in Gender Care | Lauren Schwartz and Arthur Rousseau
Guests: Lauren Schwartz, Arthur Rousseau
reSee.it Podcast Summary
On Origins Podcast, Lauren Schwarz and Arthur Rousseau discuss their chapter in The War on Science, focusing on gender-affirming care (GAC) and medical standards. They argue that the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) wields influence, with U.S. medical bodies deferring to it, while the UK’s Cass report and countries have begun to curtail such care. They describe WPATH’s standards of care (SOC 8) as presenting itself as evidence-based, lifesaving care, yet note published reviews finding the strength of the evidence often low or indirect, and that guidelines are not always consistent with the underlying literature. They recount that Johns Hopkins underwent political pressure to withdraw systematic reviews and that WPATH later imposed an approval mechanism over future publications. The speakers condemn the reliance on “lived experience” over rigorous evidence, and highlight concerns about age restrictions being removed and consent for minors to hormonal or surgical interventions. They cite a lack of long-term outcome data, no conclusive evidence that gender-affirming care reduces suicide, and cases illustrating the risks of messaging to afraid families. They call for better education, transparency, and a return to science-based medicine, while referencing the Tennessee minors’ care case and urging global alignment.

Dr. Lisa Littman on Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria, the Teen Trans Trend, and Intellectual Rigor
Guests: Dr. Lisa Littman
reSee.it Podcast Summary
In this episode of The Megyn Kelly Show, Dr. Lisa Littman discusses her research on the surge of transgender identification among teenagers, particularly girls, which she terms "rapid onset gender dysphoria." Dr. Littman, a physician and researcher at Brown University, observed a statistically unusual increase in teenagers, especially girls, identifying as transgender and sought to study the phenomenon. Her findings suggest that social and peer influences may play a significant role in these identifications, leading to concerns about a potential social contagion effect. Dr. Littman faced significant backlash from trans activists and some members of the medical community, who accused her of bigotry and conducting shoddy science. Despite this, she received support from many parents who felt their children were being rushed into transitions without adequate evaluation. Her research indicated that many of the teenagers identifying as transgender had pre-existing mental health issues, raising questions about the underlying causes of their gender dysphoria. She emphasizes the importance of thorough evaluations before transitioning, noting that many detransitioners reported feeling pressured by healthcare providers to pursue medical interventions. Dr. Littman highlights the need for a balanced discussion about gender dysphoria, advocating for the inclusion of diverse experiences and cautioning against the oversimplification of the issue. The conversation also touches on the role of social media in shaping perceptions of gender identity among youth, with many parents reporting that their children were influenced by online communities. Dr. Littman calls for a more nuanced understanding of gender dysphoria that considers various factors, including mental health and social dynamics, rather than solely affirming a child's self-identification. She concludes by stressing the need for open dialogue and research to ensure that young people receive appropriate care and support.

Dr. Debra Soh, a neuroscientist and author of "The End of Gender," expresses concern that many young people may be misdiagnosed as transgender when they are actually just exploring their sexual orientation, particularly in the context of gender dysphoria. Soh argues that transitioning at a young age can lead to negative outcomes, including the potential for regret and mental health issues later in life. She emphasizes the importance of allowing children to explore their identities without rushing into medical interventions. Soh critiques the current academic climate, noting that many researchers avoid discussing controversial topics due to fear of backlash.

She transitions to a serious discussion about the current cultural climate, emphasizing that the definition of womanhood is under threat. Kelly introduces her guest, Kellie-Jay Keen, known as Posie Parker, who has become a prominent figure in advocating for women's rights against what she perceives as the encroachment of trans activism. Keen recounts her experiences, including a recent event in New Zealand where she faced a hostile protest from trans activists, resulting in her being escorted away for her safety. She highlights the hypocrisy of those who preach compassion while engaging in aggressive behavior. Keen has been vocal about her stance since 2018, advocating for the definition of a woman as an adult human female, and she criticizes the lack of police protection during protests against her. The conversation shifts to the influence of online culture on gender identity, with Keen suggesting that exposure to online pornography has corrupted young boys, while social contagion affects girls, leading them to identify as trans.

They also touch on the media's role in shaping perceptions of gender identity, particularly through popular figures like Mr. Beast, whose content may inadvertently normalize trans identities for young audiences. Keen argues that many individuals identifying as trans may be acting out of sexual fetishes rather than genuine gender dysphoria. The discussion continues to explore the complexities of gender identity, the challenges faced by women in maintaining safe spaces, and the societal pressures that lead to the medicalization of gender dysphoria. Keen emphasizes the importance of defining womanhood clearly to protect women's rights and spaces, while Kelly expresses her struggle with the use of preferred pronouns in light of these discussions.

Defending Academic Freedom on Sex & Gender | Judith Suissa & Alice Sullivan
Guests: Judith Suissa, Alice Sullivan
reSee.it Podcast Summary
Lawrence Krauss hosted a conversation with Judith Suissa and Alice Sullivan about their chapter in The War on Science, gender wars and academic freedom. Sullivan, a quantitative sociologist and PPE graduate who led the 1970 British birth cohort study, explains that data collection requires clear categories and that, in her view, data about sex is being contested. Suissa, a philosopher of education, traces how questions about what constitutes a good education intersect with moral and political values and notes that she and Sullivan began discussing gender issues after observing rising pressure to silence dissent. Their chapter argues that curtailing discussions of sex, gender, and gender identity constrains shared learning and democracy, and that the assertion of gender identity should not erase biological categories such as male, female, and sex-based classifications. They describe how individuals who defend these categories are labeled transphobic and how advocates have used tactics like no-platforming, petitions, threats, and public protests to stigmatize opponents. Cases highlighted include Kathleen Stock at Sussex, Jo Phoenix, Lisa Littman, and Maya Forstater, and the Cass report on gender-affirming treatments for minors. The discussion covers how DEI initiatives can suppress research, the role of institutional leaders and journals, and the legal framework in the UK, including the Equality Act 2010, the Gender Recognition Act, and the Education Reform Act of 1988, strengthened by the Higher Education Act 2023. They argue that academic freedom is essential to science, education, and democracy, and call for robust defenses of open inquiry.

He expresses concern that this shift contributes to a broader societal decline in the institution of marriage. The conversation touches on the moral implications of homosexuality from a Christian perspective, with Walsh asserting that sexual relations should occur within the confines of heterosexual marriage. He acknowledges the challenges faced by gay individuals but maintains that his beliefs stem from a religious framework. As they navigate these complex topics, both Rogan and Walsh emphasize the importance of open dialogue and the need for civil discourse, even amidst deep ideological divides.
