Ah, the modern, liberal world – from Australia:
A JUDGE has allowed a 12-year-old Victorian girl to start a taxpayer-funded sex swap, despite objections from the child’s father.
The girl has begun court-approved hormone treatment in the first step toward a complete gender switch.
The Family Court orders also permit the girl, who cannot be named, to apply for a new birth certificate, passport and Medicare card in a boy’s name.
The application to allow the hormone treatment was lodged by the girl’s mother.
A state government observer, an endocrinologist, a psychiatrist, a family counsellor and a lawyer acting on the child’s behalf all supported the plan.
Only her father, who lives interstate, opposed the proposed sex change, though he did not attend the final court hearing and could not afford to send a lawyer on his behalf.
The court was told he could not accept that his daughter had always seen herself as a boy and considered her too young to make such a decision.
The mother expressed sadness and deep concern for her daughter, but said she would stand by the girl.
The child’s lawyer told the court she considered the girl capable of making an informed decision.
The girl is one of the youngest patients in Australia granted permission to begin a sex swap.
The court was told early intervention was needed because the child was stressed and anxious at the prospect of starting her period and had threatened self-harm.
Hormones implanted under her skin every three months will stop her menstruating and prevent her hips and breasts growing.
A willfull little girl who is rather knee-worthy throws a trantrum and a court entertains her demand as if it were rational. This is where modern liberalism leads us, good people…and please note that for all of liberalism’s concern for the rights of defendants in criminal cases, there is no provision in liberalism to provide an attorney for girl’s father to come to court and try to inject a note of sanity into the proceedings.
Whence comes this? From several sources – but primarily from the cowardice of those who know better. Everyone knows that this child should not have a sex change. And yet, she’s going to have one…”being yourself” is a fine thing, but “beiing yourself” cannot require surgery other other major, medical interventions into your normal biology. It took a l ot of liberalism – and liberalism’s lies – to get us to this point…it’ll take a lot of Truth to turn us around and get us back to a rational society.
