This essay reviews the physical results of the transgender movement. Brought to you by the government-medical-pharmaceutical-media complex.
Gender Ideology is a fundamentalist religion—intolerant, demanding strict adherence to doctrine, hell-bent on gathering proselytes. ~ Gender Ideology is policed by blasphemy laws. Gender identity is the secular version of the ‘soul.’ ~ All of which is to say, Gender Ideology is not bellbottoms or feathered bangs. It is no pendulum, and it will not swing back with a little help from inertia. It is not a tide, and it will not turn with the gravitational pull of the moon. ~ So why do so many Americans believe this ‘tide’ will turn? Because the adherents excel at deceit.

Foreword
This essay reviews the “new sexuality” of today. That ideology tirelessly labors to extend the consciousness of society into a neo-reality beyond the natural beauty of man and woman united in matrimony.
Readers will gain an understanding of a disturbing set of details about the drastic procedures and physical outcome of the “transgender” movement. All brought to you by an amalgamation of government, medical, pharmaceutical, media, crony capitalism, particular churches, and education. For ease of reading, this essay will use the acronym ANGRY (Anti Natural Gender Resources for Youngsters) to label the amalgamation.
As adults, we have the autonomy to make decisions for ourselves, provided they do not cause harm to others. I may hold differing views about someone claiming gender other than biological. But I respect their freedom to have that perspective.1 That aligns with not interfering if someone consumes excessive fast food. We all make mistakes in life. However, in a society that values rational thinking, we must learn from bad decisions and implement corrective action.
A concern arises when an agenda conceals the negative impact on individuals’ lives and potential harm to others or dismisses safer alternatives. It is essential to consider the broader implications and ensure that our choices prioritize the well-being and safety of all individuals involved.
In society, established laws and regulations designate 18 as adulthood. However, it is worth noting that different states may have varying age requirements for certain activities. For example, a driver’s license or consuming alcoholic beverages. It is not uncommon for these age limits to differ from one another. Regarding gender “reassignment,” some argue that state laws restricting it to adults infringe upon “human rights.” That is a spurious argument. As a rational society, we withhold certain activities from children until they reach the age of reason and can make decisions. However, sadly, because of the “education” system and legacy media, reasoning gets cast off to the dustbin of history before our eyes.
Meanwhile, we face overbearing and relentless regulations and mandates instituted by the government. This same Leviathan goes into orbit when a state prohibits “transition” processes for children.
Introduction
The separation of sex and gender as distinct concepts emerged in the mid-20th century. That occurred particularly within the field of sociology and feminist theory. Before this, “sex” and “gender” were used interchangeably or as synonyms. One influential milestone in the separation of sex and gender was the publication of the book The Second Sex by Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986). Initially published in 1949, this book explored femininity’s social and cultural construction. Simone de Beauvoir argued that biological differences did not solely determine gender roles and expectations. She power launched the modernist theory that societal interaction determines gender.
To set the stage, it is essential to note how the post-modern narrative portrays the differences between gender and sex.
Gender identity refers to a person’s deeply held sense of their body, which may or may not correspond to the sex as determined upon birth. While sex is typically categorized as male or female based on physical and biological characteristics, gender identity is more about an individual’s understanding and experience of their gender. Gender identity can be categorized into three broad categories:
Cisgender: A person whose gender identity aligns with the biological sex.
Transgender: A person whose gender identity differs from their biological sex. For example, someone born male but later identifies as a woman. Transgender individuals may undergo social, medical, or legal processes to transition to their affirmed gender.
Non-binary or Genderqueer: Some individuals may identify as non-binary or genderqueer, which means their gender identity is not exclusively male or female. Non-binary, despite the biological sex, may identify as both genders, neither gender, a combination of genders, or as a different gender entirely. Non-binary people may use various terms to describe their identity, such as genderqueer, genderfluid, agender, bigender, or gender non-conforming.
Sex refers to the biological and physical characteristics that distinguish males from females. Birth certificates indicate male or female based on the external genitalia, chromosomes, and reproductive anatomy.
It should be observed that the term “assigned sex” is not mentioned in the previous text related to birth certificates. As a firm believer in the natural, God-given beauty of male and female anatomy during conception and birth, I do not agree with the generalized notion of “assigned sex.” However, if an adult desires to alter their birth certificate, particularly for genuine problems, that is their choice.2 Therefore, it is crucial to distinguish between gender ideology and gender dysphoria, as per the below outline.
Gender ideology refers to beliefs and theories related to the social construction of gender and its implications for individuals and society. Gender ideology proponents claim that gender is not solely determined by biological sex but is also influenced by social, cultural, and psychological factors. Thus with that view, gender is a multifaceted concept beyond male and female biology. Gender ideology adherents claim diverse gender identities such as transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, etc.
Gender dysphoria is a psychological condition characterized by distress or discomfort experienced by individuals whose gender identity does not align with their biological sex. People with gender dysphoria often strongly desire to be recognized and treated as a gender different from their biological sex. They may experience significant distress due to the incongruence between their gender identity, physical appearance, and social expectations and roles associated with their biological sex.
The medical community, in concert with gender ideology, offers an increasing menu of nonsurgical procedures to address gender dysphoria. Meanwhile, ANGRY forbids a safer alternative—therapeutic help for people to accept their natural bodies. Therefore, ANGRY coerces more intrusive procedures. That includes hormone therapy, surgical interventions, and nonsurgical methods. Hormone therapy involves the administration of feminizing or masculinizing hormones. That plays a significant role in shaping secondary sexual characteristics. While hormone therapy can bring changes, potential risks and side effects occur.
Intrusive surgical interventions include breast augmentation, facial feminization surgery, penectomy, or vaginoplasty. These procedures are complex and rely on expertise in specialized fields of medicine. Surgical procedures carry inherent risks. Complications, infections, and scarring can occur after procedures. Thus, the need for more surgeries to achieve desired outcomes. Furthermore, the emotional and psychological implications of gender “transition” can arise.
It is crucial to approach this topic with compassion. To be compassionate, we must acknowledge the potential complications that may arise during these procedures. Detailing the “transition” procedures listed below will help readers understand the realities, risks, and complications.
The following information is compiled from the listed public sources and is intended only to enlighten readers about what is happening to certain people. Gender dysphoria can be a traumatic experience, and any intervention or procedure is within the domain of the confidential relationship between patient and doctor.
Female to Neo-Male
Neo-Male Surgical
Several surgical procedures can be considered for biological women who wish to “transition” to neo-male:3
Chest reconstruction (top surgery) applied to neo-men provides a more masculine chest appearance. This procedure involves the removal of breast tissue and excess skin, resulting in a flatter, more masculine contour. Sometimes, nipple grafts are also performed to reposition and resize the nipples.
Genital Reconstruction (bottom surgery):
Metoidioplasty procedure suits individuals who desire genital reconstruction but do not wish to undergo extensive surgery. It involves releasing the ligaments that limit the growth of the clitoris (which is typically enlarged through hormone therapy) to create a small phallus. Additional procedures, such as urethral lengthening or scrotoplasty, may be performed to enhance a phallus’s appearance and limited functionality.
Phalloplasty is a more complex procedure that involves creating a neophallus using tissue grafts (often from the forearm, thigh, or abdomen) or implants. The neophallus is then constructed to resemble a male penis in appearance and can be used for urination and, in some cases, “sexual activity.”4 5
Vaginectomy and hysterectomy involve the removal of the procreation organs. For genital reconstruction, some neo-men may undergo a vaginectomy, which consists of removing the vaginal canal. A hysterectomy may also be performed to remove the uterus and cervix.
Scrotoplasty is a procedure that involves the creation of a scrotum, typically using tissue grafts. Testicular implants can be inserted to provide a more authentic appearance.
Neo-Male Nonsurgical
Several nonsurgical options are available for individuals “transitioning” from a biological female to a neo-male without surgical procedures:
Hormone therapy is a fundamental aspect of gender transition for many neo-men. It involves testosterone, typically administered through injections, gels, or patches. Testosterone helps induce secondary sex characteristics associated with masculinity, such as facial and body hair growth, deepening of the voice, and muscle development.
Voice training is an option for neo-men who desire a deeper and more masculine tone voice training can be beneficial. This process involves working with speech therapists or vocal coaches specializing in “transgender” voice training. Techniques such as resonance exercises, pitch control, and speech patterns can help individuals develop a more masculine-sounding voice.
Chest binding is a method used to flatten the appearance of the chest. It involves wearing specially designed chest binders or compression garments that minimize the visibility of breast tissue. “Safe binding practices” and breaks from binding are crucial to maintaining chest health.
Personal clothing choices can significantly influence gender presentation. Many neo-men can experiment with clothing styles, such as masculine clothing cuts, to align their external appearance with gender identity.
Hairstyling and facial hair growth play a significant role in gender expression. Many neo-men choose shorter hairstyles or haircuts typically associated with masculinity. Additionally, some may pursue facial hair growth through hormone therapy or explore grooming techniques such as trimming and shaping to enhance their desired facial hair appearance.
For a topical post-medical story about a neo-male, check out the New York Magazine article “My Penis, Myself I didn’t need a penis to be a man. But I needed one to be me.”
Male to Neo-Female
Neo-Female Surgical
Several surgical procedures can be considered for biological men who wish to “transition” to neo-female:
Facial feminization surgery combines procedures to alter facial features to create a more feminine appearance. These procedures include forehead contouring, rhinoplasty (nose reshaping), jaw and chin reduction, cheek augmentation, and lip augmentation.
Adam’s apple reduction surgery, also known as tracheal shave or chondrolaryngoplasty, is commonly sought by neo-women as part of their gender affirmation journey. The surgery reduces the prominence of the Adam’s apple, a cartilage structure located in the front of the neck. The primary goal of Adam’s apple reduction surgery is to create a more feminine appearance by decreasing the size and visibility of the thyroid cartilage, which gives the characteristic prominence in the neck area. By reducing the size of the Adam’s apple, neo-women can achieve a smoother, more feminine contour in the neck region.
Voice feminization for some neo-women may include surgery to modify their vocal cords and achieve a higher-pitched, more traditionally feminine voice. This procedure is typically performed by a laryngologist or a speech and language therapist specializing in voice therapy for transgender individuals.
Breast augmentation (top surgery) is a surgical procedure in which breast implants are inserted to enhance the size and shape of the breasts. The implants can be placed under the chest muscles or the breast tissue, depending on the patient’s anatomy and preferences.
Genital reconstruction (bottom surgery):
Penectomy is the medical procedure for removing the penis in a male-to-female “transition.” Penectomy is a surgical procedure in which the penis is surgically removed to help align an individual’s physical body with their female gender identity. It is an irreversible procedure and typically forms part of a more comprehensive surgery known as vaginoplasty. During penectomy, the surgeon makes incisions to detach the penis from the body. The extent of the removal depends on the specific technique employed and the patient’s preferences. There are different approaches to penectomy, including “Simple Penectomy,” which involves removing the entire penis, including the glans (head) and the shaft. In a Subtotal or “Partial Penectomy,” a portion of the penile shaft is removed while preserving a part of the glans or the urethra.
Orchiectomy is the surgical removal of the testicles. This procedure eliminates testosterone production and reduces the need for hormone therapy.
Vaginoplasty is a procedure that creates a neo-vagina. The surgeon uses existing genital tissue to construct the vaginal canal; sometimes, tissue grafts may be used to line the new vagina. The neovagina is typically created to allow for sexual intercourse and other functions.6
Labiaplasty involves constructing and shaping a neo-labia (the outer and inner folds of the vulva) to achieve a more feminine appearance. The procedure can involve labial tissue reduction, contouring, and adjustment.
Neo-Female Nonsurgical
Several nonsurgical options are available for individuals “transitioning” from a biological male to a neo-female without surgical procedures:
Hormone therapy involves the use of feminizing hormones, typically estrogen and anti-androgens. Estrogen promotes the development of feminine secondary sexual characteristics such as breast growth, softer skin, and changes in fat distribution. Anti-androgens help reduce the effects of testosterone, such as facial hair growth and muscle mass.
Voice training can help individuals develop a more feminine-sounding voice. Working with speech therapists or vocal coaches specializing in transgender voice training, individuals can learn techniques to modify resonance, pitch, intonation, and speech patterns to achieve a voice that aligns with their gender identity.
Hair removal for neo-women reduces or eliminates unwanted facial and body hair. Methods include laser hair removal and electrolysis. These procedures target hair follicles to inhibit hair growth, helping to achieve a smoother and more feminine appearance.
Makeup and styling techniques can be powerful tools for feminization. Learning makeup application techniques specific to facial features and using clothing, hairstyles, and accessories that align with feminine aesthetics can enhance gender presentation and boost confidence.
Breast forms and padded clothing or prosthetic breast inserts can provide the appearance of breasts without breast augmentation surgery. They can be inserted into a bra or adhered directly to the chest to create a more feminine silhouette. Padded clothing, such as padded bras or clothing with built-in padding, can also help make the illusion of breasts.
Tucking refers to a technique used by transgender women to create a smoother appearance of the genital area and minimize the visibility of the penis. It involves positioning the genitals to be tucked away, helping to achieve a more feminine silhouette and clothing fit. Tucking can be done using different methods, and individuals may find the best approach. Here are a few commonly used techniques for tucking:
Plain tuck involves gently pushing the testicles upward into the inguinal canal (the canal in the lower abdomen where the testicles descended from during development). Once the testicles are in the canal, the penis can be pushed backward between the legs. Tight-fitting underwear or a gaff (a specialized undergarment designed to hold everything in place) can then be worn to secure the tucked position.
Tape methods use a medical or athletic adhesive material to secure the genital area in a tucked position. This involves gently pulling the testicles upward and backward into the inguinal canal and using tape to hold the penis against the body.
Compression garments include compression shorts, shapewear, or specially designed gaffs. They can provide gentle compression to hold the genital area in a tucked position. These garments are typically made from stretchy and supportive materials that can help create a flatter and more feminine appearance.
Non-binary, or agender
A nullo or smoothie refers to individuals within a body modification subculture, primarily consisting of men, who have undergone surgical removal of their genitals, and sometimes their nipples as well. It’s worth noting that nullos do not necessarily identify as transgender; most identify as eunuchs. The term “nullo” originates from “genital nullification,” which encapsulates the purpose of the procedure. While most of those seeking nullification are men, some women willingly have their vagina surgically closed and remove their clitoris, nipples, and breasts.7

Genital surgery or other medical intervention may be necessary for individuals born with reproductive organ deformities or other cellular-level problems. Likewise, the same applies to those who have suffered genital injuries from accidents. When discussing this sensitive topic, it is important to approach it with the utmost sensitivity and respect. This topic’s issues encompass deeply personal and intimate aspects of a person’s well-being. Also, see What does it mean to be intersex? by Cleveland Clinic.
I have formulated and used neo-male and neo-female as linguistic instruments to help understand a complex topic. That is not intended to be a pejorative.
The specific techniques used in phalloplasty can vary depending on the patient’s anatomy, desired outcome, and surgeon’s expertise. Here is a general overview of the surgical steps involved:
Donor Site Selection: The surgeon will discuss the available options for donor sites to harvest tissue for constructing the neophallus. Common donor sites include the forearm, thigh, or abdominal area. Each site has advantages and limitations, which will be evaluated based on the patient’s circumstances.
Tissue Flap Harvesting: Once the donor site is chosen, the surgeon will perform a flap dissection to harvest the necessary tissue, including skin, blood vessels, nerves, and possibly muscle or fat. The chosen flap will be based on its ability to provide adequate blood supply and sensation to the neophallus.
Urethral Lengthening: The surgeon will create a tube within the neophallus to serve as the urethra, allowing for urination. This process involves delicate dissection and careful alignment of the existing urethra with the newly constructed one. The surgeon may use tissue grafts or other materials to ensure the continuity and proper functioning of the urethra.
Nerve Hookup: Nerves from the donor site or other sources may be connected to the neophallus to provide sensation. This step aims to restore sensory feedback to the reconstructed penis.
A neophallus refers to the surgically constructed penis in neo-men or men (to address injuries) who have undergone phalloplasty. The ability to achieve an erection after phalloplasty can vary depending on the surgical technique and individual factors. Different phalloplasty methods, including implants or prosthetic devices, can simulate an erection. The individual can manually activate these devices to achieve a temporary erection. However, it’s important to note that not all individuals opt for or are eligible for these devices. Typically, the neophallus cannot achieve a natural erection, as it does not contain erectile tissue like the corpora cavernosa found in a male penis. Thus individuals who have undergone phalloplasty might experience pleasure through sexual activities of “other means.”
One standard procedure for neo-women is gender-affirming or genital reconstruction surgery, which involves creating a neovagina. The penis is usually inverted during this procedure to form the vaginal canal. However, the prostate gland, a part of the male reproductive system, is not typically removed during this surgery. The decision to remove the prostate gland in neo-women is generally not necessary for gender affirmation purposes. The prostate gland can remain in place without causing issues as long as neo-women receive the same prostate check-ups as men.
The closure of the vagina may be a necessary procedure to solve certain medical conditions. For example, a woman who has had a necessary hysterectomy with complications later in life. In such cases, the women may experience “bladder drop,” and one measure to prevent further drop can be the closure of the vagina.

A woman is suing a Nebraska hospital for “negligence and lack of informed consent” five years after doctors there performed a double mastectomy on her as a teen. “When Luka was just 16 years old, her breasts were surgically amputated as the first step in her ‘gender affirming care’ with the Defendants. As more fully described herein, the actions of the Defendants constitute negligence and are violative of Nebraska’s Consumer Protection Act,” the suit states.
