HHS Nominee Rachel Levine Evades Question on Puberty Blockers, Child Sex Change Surgeries

Penny Starr 25 Feb 2021

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) tried on Thursday to get President Joe Biden’s Health and Human Services (HHS) nominee, Rachel Levine, a biological man who considers himself a transgender woman, to denounce allowing minors to take puberty-blocking hormones or undergo surgery to remove breasts or genitalia.

“American culture is now normalizing the idea that minors can be given hormones to prevent their biological development of their secondary sexual characteristics,” Paul said at Levine’s confirmation hearing before the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee.

“Dr. Levine, you have supported both allowing minors to be given hormone blockers to prevent them from going through puberty, as well as surgical destruction of a minor’s genitalia,” Paul said, comparing it to the universal opposition to female genital mutilation or FGM.

“Like surgical mutilation, hormonal interruption of puberty can permanently alter and prevent secondary sexual characteristics,” Paul said.”The American College of pediatricians reports that 80 to 95 percent of pre-pubertal children with gender dysphoria will experience resolution by late adolescence if not exposed to medical intervention and social affirmation.”

“Dr. Levine, do you believe that minors are capable of making such a life-changing decision as changing one’s sex?” Paul asked.

Levine did not answer the question, instead providing a generic response to imply cooperation.

I thought IT was pathetic in it's evasion and obviously memorized response and if IT thought anyone would take it's meaningless drone of a response as thoughtful IT is as ignorant as ugly. And that's a whole lot of ugly.

This is the Philadelphia freak who removed her mother out of a nursing home, then moved Covid patients into the nursing homes!

Dick Levine's smarta$$ attitude was oh-so-endearing, though.

The Idiocracy continues to advance.  The idea of changing one's sex just because we can does not mean we should be doing it.  And what is worse, using taxpayer dollars to enable this insanity has to end.

Mass genocide and now child mutilation is perfectly ok for Democommies.  It is all about the destruction of life.  Truly a shame that the USA has degenerated to be this kind of leader.  Now we are exporting mass genocide to other nations.  The Idiocracy is insanity.

John Hopkins, who was once one of the leaders in all of this insanity has decided that gender dysphoria is a mental disorder.  By doing what Biden is doing, it is encouraging even more children to destroy their lives.  Lunacy.

We are talking about the genocide in China when we practice mass genocide on our most defenseless here in the USA every day.  Makes no sense.  We murder far more babies than China kills their Urgher muslims.

A large number of people that have this done to themselves regret it years later, often committing suicide.  This is permanent, and it destroys so much.  Doing this to children is flat out wrong, sick minded, and evil.

Democrats care, about children, that's why they butcher them in the millions and force their way in surgically taking their sexuality away.  In the old days they sacrificed them to Molech.  Sodom & Gomorrah on steroids is here, deniers helped make it happen.  Damn them to hell.
