In this Daily Signal article, Tyler O’Neil reveals that the Trump administration has struck a devastating blow to the child gender mutilation pipeline by having the Federal Trade Commission and four attorneys general sue the World Professional Association for Transgender Health for deceptive practices promoting experimental interventions on minors.
- The FTC lawsuit targets WPATH, an activist group posing as a medical authority, for falsely claiming puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries are “medically necessary” to prevent suicide despite lacking evidence.
- WPATH allegedly conceals serious side effects including hot flashes, cognitive issues, mood disturbances, pelvic pain, inability to breastfeed, nerve damage, and nipple necrosis.
- The group’s 2022 “Standards of Care” removed age limits for breast amputations and genital surgeries, with a leader admitting difficulty finding “sound evidence-based argument(s)” for the change.
- Pediatric transition clinics exploded from one in 2007 to 41 in 2015, with gender dysphoria diagnoses nearly tripling to 42,000 between 2017 and 2021 under WPATH’s influence.
- FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson stressed that parents and children deserve truthful, evidence-based information on medical services, not misleading activist claims.
- The suit, joined by attorneys general from Alaska, Iowa, Nebraska, and Texas, alleges violations of the Federal Trade Commission Act and state consumer protection laws.
- WPATH dismissed the action as baseless and an “end-around,” but the Trump administration is dismantling the deceptive foundation enabling this scandalous industry targeting vulnerable youth.
- This landmark case could expose and halt the pseudoscientific push that has harmed countless children while enriching activists and medical profiteers.
