Psychiatrist Paul McHugh: Transgender ‘Folly’ Will ‘Collapse, Just as Eugenics Folly Collapsed’
Dr. Susan Berry 1 Jun 2021
One of the world’s most renowned experts on the transgender phenomenon declared in an interview he is “absolutely convinced” the transgender movement is “folly and it’s going to collapse, just as the eugenics folly collapsed.”
In an interview at the end of May with Matthew J. Franck, contributing editor of Public Discourse, Paul McHugh, M.D. the University Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, warned puberty is a complex biological process that has been “over-simplified” to the detriment of children with gender dysphoria who are being treated with puberty blockers. He compared the course of the transgender phenomenon to that of eugenics:
Eugenics was quite as powerful, after all. I’m reassured that we psychiatrists have been everywhere before. Fortunately, Adolf Meyer, my predecessor at Johns Hopkins, was one of the few psychiatrists in the world, really, who said “I don’t think we can go this way with the eugenics movement.” And so I feel I’m in good company by saying this is going to collapse.

Creation produced our Universe and its occupants, human and otherwise; along
w/Natural Law, as Mankind's eternal guide.
Over millennia, Natural Law was uncovered through logic & reason; involving concepts
of behavior familiar to every era of Humanity, since Eden.
The essence of Natural Law was derived from Human Nature while having nothing to
do w/Mankind's self-created rules of governance.
From Eden till the Enlightenment, Man understood that Rights & Responsibilities were interlocked and dependent; as such he behaved accordingly.
But that fateful turn, unleashed by the cry of Liberte' (Freedom) across the world,
muddled much of Mankind's spiritual sensibilities, replacing them w/material
betterment as his more noble objective; for which we are infinitely worse off.
As man is eternally imperfect, abortion, homosexuality, transgenderism and the like,
have always existed; yet as oddities that were rejected and punished accordingly.
Now we are in a time where reflection and responsibility has largely evaporated,
exposing Mankind to the neuroses/psychoses that rage across our nation and a
governance both unable & unwilling to do anything about the conditions in which
we are mired.
