This documentary series covers some of the most important issues facing women and girls right now. It looks at the physical and mental effects of transgender ideology on young people with sobering warmth, empathy, understanding, and realism. It shows what has been lost in current discourse: a critique of the social conditions and the power arrangements of society--patriarchy--that makes so many young people feel trapped in the first place. It also points to how the transgender movement has garnered a whole industry of powerful drugs and chemicals that have profound, ever-lasting, irreversible impacts, and that this is one of the most problematic medical experiments ever conducted--hearkening back to the early days of psychotherapy, chemical castration, genital mutilation, etc. Yes, we're all the way back there. But perhaps most importantly, the series reminds us how gender is something to be abolished, not embraced, and so it's no wonder that young people have a hard time traversing this crazy patriarchal and oppressive culture we live in. But what's worse, is that even discussing this issue garners censorship, rape and death threats, de-platforming, silencing. Trans rights are human rights, but not in the way they say they are. I'm very thankful to Vaishnavi Sundar and everyone else who made this series happen. Your empathy, integrity, courage, and honesty is so very important and valued!
