Harvard Hospital Ruins Its Credibility With Bizarre Claim About Transgender Babies In the Womb

They say that universities are centers of higher learning but someone is going to have to explain how Harvard, considered by many to be one of the more prestigious universities, is currently making wild claims about the gender identity of unborn babies.
As reported by the Daily Mail, Boston Children’s Hospital suggested that babies know they’re transgender from the beginning, even inside the womb. The claim comes from a video they released with a psychologist named Kerry McGregor saying babies understand their gender identity while they’re gestating in their mother:
‘But a good portion of children do know as early as – seemingly – from the womb.
‘And they will usually express their gender identity as very young children, some as soon as they can talk… kids know very, very early.

Based on a series of events that I think, mostly due to social contagion plus the kind of ideological commitment, many now consider these the proper standard of care for kids with gender dysphoria and Boston Children’s Hospital is just one of the first ones to do it,’ Dr Richards said.
He added: ‘Some kids conform more or less closely to gender stereotypes.
‘This tells us nothing about their ‘gender identity,’ a concept that no child has on his or her own, that no one had until recently, and that doesn’t even have a stable definition.’
