One of the most heartening developments of 2025 is that the relentless pursuit on the part of adults, who have been advocating to drastically alter the bodies of young children, has been exposed for the recklessness that it represents.
What’s Good for the Goose…
The Left remains on a relentless hunt for anyone in history who has ever committed an infraction that they deem to be reprehensible. What today's wokesters don't understand is that in the future they're going to be deservedly judged with at least equal vehemence to how they have been judging those on the Right. Not ironically, those on the Right have the best interests of children in mind.
The transgender mania that has been sweeping through our schools, particularly grade schools, has involved students as young as eight years old. Happily, the phenomenon tapered off significantly even before Donald Trump’s second inauguration. Nevertheless, in 2026, some teachers, school administrators, principals, as well as counselors and coaches, will continue to encourage young students to explore changing their gender. What’s more, many of these adults think that it is their solemn duty to profoundly indoctrinate children in one way or another.
In contrast, those on the Right feel that children should not be subjected to such indoctrination. At no time should a drag queen story hour, for example, be sponsored by any public school. What is the point? To expose young children to emotionally challenged men who feel the strong urge to dress up and parade around as if they are women? Is there social value in that? If so, carefully explain the value and cite legitimate references.
Proceed Cautiously
When young children who have been unduly influenced reach the age of 20, 30, or 40, and are in positions of power or influence themselves, watch out for a significant revolt among that population. The revolt will be directed towards those who induced them to irrevocable life changes.
It is not a large leap to imagine potential lawsuits, books, articles, theatrical productions, inflammatory documentaries, and all manner of information dissemination crying out about the injustices that such individuals experienced decades earlier, as impressionable youths. In time, it’s likely that those individuals today who are indoctrination advocates, let alone those who have encouraged or actually performed sexual mutilation and other horrendous medical procedures, will be deemed the villains of tomorrow.
If you believe it is your right to indoctrinate those whom you have no business indoctrinating, proceed with caution. You are among the dregs of the earth, and you will be cited as such, hopefully, while you're still here to face the utter shame of it all.
Gender Dysphoria is a Phase
Here’s news for the wokester advocates: Increasing evidence shows that gender dysphoria often is a situation that eventually passes. Most children grow out of it. Among those who do have such inclinations, many are simply gay. They are not candidates for changing their gender so that they'll somehow have a better life. Those in positions of authority, certainly within our educational institutions, have exceeded the bounds of prudence, caution, and science.
As more and more evidence emerges that sex change operations and the lifestyles that such victims must endure don't pan out, how will today's advocates of such changes be judged in the future? In a word: harshly.
Emerging studies reveal that most of those who undergo sex reassignment procedures do not achieve the inner peace and satisfaction that they had sought. Instead, they learn the exceedingly hard way that the procedures done to them are permanent, far less than satisfying, and, in many cases, doom them to an existence that they could not have previously imagined.
Deeds Revealed
In the coming decades, those who were advocates of this mania and unduly influenced children and teens based on a Leftist agenda, and not based on what was good for the individual, will be seen for what they are.
Those who made money off of such medical procedures, in particular, will be judged for what they did. Those who have corrupted the hearts and minds of the children they were entrusted to protect will be held in low esteem.
The term “gender-affirming care” will fall out of favor and will be regarded as despicable pseudoscience perpetrated by Leftist zealots, who continue to believe that they are correct on all issues related to gender, sexuality, and everything in between.
