Gender ideology refers to the belief that gender is not solely determined by biology but rather is a social construct that can be chosen or expressed in various ways. This perspective has led to increased acceptance and visibility of transgender and non-binary individuals, but it also has sparked debate and controversy. Some argue that gender ideology undermines traditional gender roles and norms, while others claim that it expands opportunities for children and gives them more freedom to express themselves. Regardless, it has had significant impacts on children, as they feel pressure to conform to certain gender stereotypes or question their own gender identity in a confusing or difficult way.

In this episode, I am joined by James Esses, an advocate of gender ideology and its impacts on children. He is also a former psychotherapist trainee who was expelled because of advocating for the effects of gender ideology. James shares his experience with gender ideology, the best way to tackle gender ideology, and why children are caught up in gender ideology. He also talks about the effects of gender-affirming surgery.

Notable quotes:

● “Gender dysphoria is a mental health condition.”

● “The cruel narrative we are giving to children is that the way to be your true self is fundamentally changing yourself.”

● “We should be looking to help change people’s minds and not their bodies if they are feeling discomfort. “

● “The message of, you can be whatever you want to be irrespective of what anyone else thinks even if it is biologically untrue, is a very cruel message.”

● “We are all a blend of different traits and characteristics. There are more feminine men and more masculine girls, and nothing is wrong with that. People should be able to dress and express themselves how they want, but it doesn’t mean that they need medication surgery.”
