McHugh – Don Boys https://donboys.cstnews.com Common Sense for Today Sun, 05 Mar 2023 04:46:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.6.29 Is Transgender Therapy Medical Quackery! https://donboys.cstnews.com/is-transgender-therapy-medical-quackery https://donboys.cstnews.com/is-transgender-therapy-medical-quackery#respond Mon, 13 Aug 2018 00:00:39 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=2158 To preempt the quick response from the LGBTQ crowd and others, I am not referring to people who are born with biological abnormality such as hermaphrodites who are born with malformed, sexually ambiguous genitalia, or both male and female genitalia. Such people, currently known as intersex individuals, have always existed and they were regarded by the Athenians and the Romans as monsters, and thrown into the sea at Athens and into the Tiber River at Rome. Such people deserve our compassion and understanding.

Transgender is an umbrella term for persons whose gender identity, gender expression, or behavior does not conform to that typically associated with the sex indicated on their birth certificate.

We have seen in recent years an avalanche of gender confusion even to the extent of pumping sex- changing hormones into children and chopping off good working body parts because a male thinks he has a female inside him. Or vice versa. A young boy dressing as a girl or a girl wanting to play with trucks or toy guns is not indicative of gender confusion.

Vanderbilt University and London’s Portman Clinic tracked children with transgender feelings but who had no medical or surgical treatment and they discovered that 70% to 80% spontaneously lost those feelings! So it would appear that to inject such children with hormones or chop off their body parts is a combination of child abuse, medical malfeasance, and criminal behavior. The left likes to assume women have control over their own bodies up to abortion at birth—and yet they seek to impose their will on a minor child without knowing the potential outcome. That’s madness. Or quackery. Or mad quackery.

We have seen this movie before. Now, it features transgenders–people who identify as the opposite gender. The older version tried to convince thinking people that homosexuality, i.e. perversion, is normalcy! Then came same-sex “marriage.” On the progressive’s to-do list is incest, pedophilia, and polygamy.

There was elation in academia, the entertainment industry, and the LGBTQ crowd when a headline blared, “Scientists uncover 20 genes linked to being transgender-–supporting claims the condition has a physical basis.” But, alas, the joy was premature. It was similar to the claims over the years that a “gay” gene had been discovered only to be proved premature. It seems many scientists find what they are looking for and if they don’t find it, they call a news conference and make authoritative claims anyway with such hesitation words as “may,” “we think,” “it seems,” etc.

But alas, it was not to be. No “gay” gene has been found. It was always a fake or at least a farce, and sometime a fraud. However, the LGBTQ crowd did an incredible sales job on normal people and shamed them into accepting a lie—that abnormal sex is acceptable, maybe even preferable!

But today the issue is transgenders but I’m not buying a ticket to that monster movie.

Crosstalk radio reported on Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet, a medical doctor and chief medical officer of Med Expert Chile, an international medical consulting company based in Santiago, Chile. She is also past director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) and has an active U.S. medical practice in Tucson, Arizona, and Dallas, Texas. Dr. Vliet reported that she treated a man who had undergone reassignment surgery to transform him into a female yet he still had a prostate gland and was in fact still a male. He could be called a goat, horse, female, or whatever but he was still a “he.” Surgery didn’t change that, neither can public opinion, a legislative body, or medical society.

Sex-reassigned persons also had an increased risk for suicide attempts according to a Swedish study by the Karolinska Institute in Sweden (considered Sweden’s best university) titled, “Long-Term Follow-Up of Transsexual Persons Undergoing Sex Reassignment Surgery: Cohort Study in Sweden.” This famous medical institute conducted the largest study of transgender patients in the world–324 patients who had transgender surgery over 30 years. What they found was that later in life there was a 20-fold greater risk of suicide for those who had reassignment surgery compared with those who did not. The study concluded, “Persons with transsexualism, after sex reassignment, have considerably higher risks for mortality, suicidal behaviour, and psychiatric morbidity than the general population.” The obvious response is, “Physician, do no harm.”

NBC News reported on a study of 5,000 people who identify as transgender. Men receiving hormone therapy trying to become women were 80 to 90 percent more likely to have a stroke, blood clots, or heart attack. Women who received hormone treatment trying to become men were not at higher risk. NBC quoted Dr. Richard Greene, who treats many transgender patients, as saying, “But my concern is that doctors who are inclined to deny hormone therapy will use this study as a reason to do so.” Oh, really! Only 80 to 90 percent more likely to have major health problems as a result of attacking nature! Maybe sane people will say, “I have male plumbing, so maybe I should accept the fact of maleness and get on with my life.”

Paul McHugh, M.D. is a practicing Catholic and according to a 2002 New York Times article, he is a Democrat who “describes himself as religiously orthodox, politically liberal and culturally conservative–a believer in marriage and the Marines, a supporter of institutions and family values.” From 1975 to 2001, he was psychiatrist-in-chief at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and became University Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. McHugh admitted that Johns Hopkins was the first U.S. medical institution to enter “sex-reassignment surgery” in the 1960s but after a study in the 70s looking at those who had the surgery and those who did not, the institution ended such surgery in 1979 because it didn’t work!

McHugh said that most of those who had surgery were “satisfied” with the results but did not adjust any better than those without surgery. So, the hospital decided to cease sex reassignment surgery. Of course, the surgery never should have started since it has less credibility in my opinion than the once popular, now discredited, prefrontal lobotomy.

McHugh now vigorously opposes sex reassignment surgery for transgender people explaining that most of the people who had undergone this type of surgery “had much the same problems with relationships, work, and emotions as before. The hope that they would emerge now from their emotional difficulties to flourish psychologically had not been fulfilled.” He has said that medical treatment for transgender youth is “like performing liposuction on an anorexic child,” and described post-operative transgender women as “caricatures of women” because the surgery failed to change many of their male traits. He co-authored a criticism of medical treatment for transgender youth published by the American College of Pediatricians.

McHugh wrote in a Wall Street Journal article, “Yet policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention.” He argues that sex misalignment “is simply mistaken—it does not correspond with physical reality” and it can lead to grim psychological outcomes.” He suggests that transgenderism is similar to anorexia and bulimia—the obvious reality is well, obvious. One can see that the person is not overweight and the other one is not dangerously thin. The problem is in the mind. Another example would be a beautiful woman who thinks she is “ugly.” She has problems but the problem is with her mind.

McHugh closed his article saying sex change “is biologically impossible. People who undergo sex-reassignment surgery do not change from men to women or vice versa. Rather, they become feminized men or masculinized women.”

McHugh said that these people need to have their minds fixed, not their genitalia.

We are asked, “What about the dude who feels that he has a woman inside his male body?” He is confused because gender is a matter of biology, not feelings and to attempt to alter it is medical malpractice.

And to realize that taxpayers are funding such quackery in the military and through our healthcare system is outrageous.

If Americans who carved the greatest nation on earth out of a wilderness roll over and play dead on the transgender issue, the nation is gone.

STOP: Stop Transgender Obnoxious Practices! https://donboys.cstnews.com/stop-stop-transgender-obnoxious-practices https://donboys.cstnews.com/stop-stop-transgender-obnoxious-practices#comments Fri, 13 May 2016 20:36:43 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=1441 Transgenders, like homosexuals, don’t exist! They are simply confused, contentious, and carnal people rebelling against God’s divine order for mankind. These are troubled people who need help not encouragement. It is child abuse to pretend that a boy dressing as a girl is anything but a boy. His physical equipment proves it and it is sexual mutilation for a surgeon to try to undo what God ordained. In fact, it is astounding that we are having these deliberations, discussions, and debates in our day. Future generations, if they come to their senses, will be shocked at the extent of our madness.

Dr. Paul R. McHugh is a highly respected psychiatrist at Johns Hopkins University who has studied transgender people for 40 years. He said it was a scientific fact that, “Transgendered men do not become women, nor can women become men!” Johns Hopkins pioneered sex-change surgeries but stopped doing them when they realized it was impossible to change one’s birth sex. The famed doctor said for kids to believe that their sex is a “matter of choice” is extremely damaging and they have a mental condition that needs treatment, not a problem with their genitalia!

That means President Obama, Loretta Lynch, the LGBT crowd, the lapdog media, the media misfits, and academia sluggards are promoters, preachers, and participants of child abuse.

North Carolina has tried to stop this madness with their restroom law but has been warned by the Federal Government that the state will lose massive amounts of money (the state’s own money) if they continue in their policy of each person using the restroom of their birth sex. Since I don’t trust politicians (God warned about putting our hope in them), I’m afraid that North Carolina, after a vigorous, valiant, and vicious conflict will capitulate. Most citizens don’t understand the pressure that the business people bring upon state officials to be concerned about money–not principle. Additional pressure will come of the state’s universities who major in sports, not academics.

No doubt, this issue will end up in the U.S. Supreme Court where they will kowtow toward the media moguls and nutcases in academia with a decision pleasing to the lowlifes of society. It will no doubt be illegal for any restroom, locker room, etc., in America to offer protection and privacy to innocent children and women. Now, what happens? It always comes down to how individuals respond.

After all the court cases, marches, talk shows, speeches, debates, etc., what should a principled person do? That’s a no brainer. A husband, brother, and father will do what they have done for millennia: they will protect the females in the family. Absent a male present then a woman can rely, if necessary, on pepper spray; or three or four ladies can go inside as a group while one “guards the door” for predators.

I have made my decision that is already in effect. We will be traveling next month and I will stand outside the women’s restrooms until my wife has finished. I will carry a walking stick or cane and keep any male from entering the restroom. Period. It doesn’t matter what you think, or anyone else thinks or what courts decide: it is simple. I will forcefully keep any obvious male from entering a restroom being used by my wife. If I must get physical, then so be it. There are some things worth fighting for.

It might be wise for each female to carry a can of pepper spray or similar item and use it to Stop Transgender Obnoxious Practices.

My critics, members of Wimps Incorporated, will suggest that no Christian would harm people but I maintain that no informed Christian would do anything else! It will be said that Christ would never do anything like that, actually get physical; however, I’m not Christ. Moreover, Christ was angry at times. He is seen at the Temple in John 2 as turning over tables and whipping people and animals out of the Temple court that was crowded with oxen, sheep, doves, manure, offensive odors, din of traffic, and loud arguments about the exchange rate.

At that time, Judea was subject to the Romans and Roman money was used throughout the Empire; however, Jewish law required that every man should pay half a shekel as tribute to the service of the sanctuary. This was a Jewish coin; therefore, the money changers provided the exchange of the Roman coins for the required Jewish half-shekel. However, the greedy priests and money changers charged exorbitant fees to exchange the money and selling of the animals for sacrifice. Thus, Christ called them “thieves.”

Most readers overlook the fact that Christ did not pick up an abandoned whip, but He made one purposefully to use on the culprits. John 2:15 says, “And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables.” This incident is so important it is recorded in all four Gospels and it probably refers to two incidents. If Christ can use a whip to drive money changers from the Temple, I can use a cane or walking stick to keep men from a woman’s restroom.

No doubt, the police will come to the altercation and they will point out that it is illegal for me to keep men from a woman’s restroom and to use force against female impersonators. After all, the law is clear. However, I will remind them that an unconstitutional law is no law and we are not obligated to obey it. They will tell me that they are “only enforcing the law” but I will remind them that that defense did not work at Nuremburg and will not work in this situation. I will be arrested.

At my trial, I will have a hundred preachers and hundreds of laymen in the streets protesting the insanity. During my trial, I will ask the jurors to reject the judge’s instruction and find me not guilty since the jury has more authority than the judge or the governor. The jury has the authority to say, “This is a bad law and while the defendant did as he was charged, he is not guilty. We strike down this insane law.” The judge will go bananas and tell me to stop but I will continue and be held in contempt of Court. Of course, could any normal, honest person have anything but contempt for such a court?

Furthermore, it is time for Christians to realize that we are full citizens and have the right to sue for discrimination, etc., so we should sue many local and state officials and take our case to the jury. Clog the system until the insanity is stopped.

I will go to jail and upon my release will do the same thing again! It’s time to Stop Transgender Obnoxious Practices.

Transgenders, Like Homosexuals, Do Not Exist! https://donboys.cstnews.com/transgenders-like-homosexuals-do-not-exist https://donboys.cstnews.com/transgenders-like-homosexuals-do-not-exist#comments Tue, 02 Jun 2015 22:32:58 +0000 http://donboys.cstnews.com/?p=1109 Before leftists’ knees across the fruited plain begin to jerk incessantly and advance to apocalyptic spasms, let me make clear– that saying something (neither me nor thee) does not make it true. Abraham Lincoln asked “How many legs would a dog have if you called its tail a leg?” He replied “four” since calling a tail a leg does not make it a leg. That simple truism has eluded most moderns who boast of their enlightenment.

Most modern Americans are so shallow and media-struck, they can’t think normally. Homosexuals don’t exist, only heterosexuals who do awkward, abnormal, even abominable things with the same sex. Likewise, transgenders do not exist, only uncertain, unstable, and unwise people who mutilate their bodies in search of an elusive dream–that always becomes a nightmare.

Look, it’s rather simple. A child is born. His or her attending physician holds up the new-born, slaps his or her rear, lays the child on his or her back (don’t get hasty; we’ll get to the gender soon) and after a quick glance writes “male” on the birth certificate. That settles it and he will be called “Bob,” “Bill,” or maybe even “Bruce.”

His parents think they have a boy but he later decides he is a she. Much later in life he enjoys wearing female clothing and identifying with females. He looks down at himself and appears to be a man but “feels” like a woman. The trouble is you can’t trust your feelings. Your eyes are telling you the truth while your feelings are lying to you and will end up making a fool of you and destroying your life.

A former psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital, Dr. Paul R. McHugh is a very courageous professional who has the integrity and compassion to tell people the truth. He is now the Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins and he declared that transgenderism is a “mental disorder” that requires medical help! He added that sex change is “biologically impossible.” Moreover, he accused medical personnel who aid and abet such medical malfeasance of promoting a mental malady!

Dr. McHugh’s comment on the sex-change operations is scathing: “We have wasted scientific and technical resources and damaged our professional credibility by collaborating with madness rather than trying to study, cure, and ultimately prevent it.” He is saying that the first duty of a physician is to do no harm and promoters of transgenderism are doing irreparable harm.

It seems transgendered persons are suffering from a “disorder of assumption.” Such people think they have the opposite gendered person within but they are deceived. Maybe nuts? Dr. McHugh reported on studies at Vanderbilt University and Portman Clinic in London that 70% to 80% of children who conveyed such feelings “spontaneously lost those feelings.” Can we say that they “self-corrected?”

Where has the good doctor been? Maybe living in a cave? Is he out of touch with Hollywood and what the “beautiful people of the media” are supporting? Doesn’t he know what’s in vogue? Doesn’t he know that he is not politically correct? Doesn’t he care that CNN or the other networks may be offended at his crassness, crudeness, or even cruelty? Doesn’t he care about offending the hes/shes out there? Surely he failed his Bedside Manner Class. Is his medical degree even legitimate? If so, should he be permitted to keep it?

Maybe living in a cave hinders his awareness of the media. He must have missed Time’s cover photo of a former male, now female with the title, “The Transgender Tipping Point: America’s Next Civil Rights Frontier!” Of course, Time presented the issue as totally normal and deserving every sensitive person’s support. Dr. McHugh declared, these “policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention.”

Doesn’t Dr. McHugh know that the Obama Administration will now pay for transgender makeovers? Well, the Administration will pay for nothing: taxpayers are now paying for such surgical mutilations via Medicare. Even prisoners are getting free transformation if they discover an opposite sex person inside them!

Dr. McHugh’s professional opinion is that there are two disorders involved in transgender cases: their idea of sex misalignment is wrong and does not correspond with physical reality and the second is that “it can lead to grim psychological outcomes.” He says it is similar to a very thin girl who looks in a mirror and thinks she is grotesquely overweight!

He noted that Johns Hopkins has stopped doing transgender surgery since the results could not justify chopping off “normal organs.”

The courageous physician declared authoritatively that sex change is biologically impossible and “People who undergo sex-reassignment surgery do not change from men to women or vice versa. Rather, they become feminized men or masculinized women. Claiming that this is a civil-rights matter and encouraging surgical intervention is in reality to collaborate with and promote a mental disorder.” Wow!

The highly respected (I predict that will change quickly) psychiatrist also reported on a new study that sadly proves the suicide rate among transgendered people who had sex-change surgery is “20 times higher than the suicide rate among non-transgender people.”

I suggest that each person keep his or her parts that they were born with and not listen to the “voice within them” since it is their body parts that will be removed, not those of the voice within.

No, transgenders do not exist.
