Which Is Worse?

On a Zoom call with other clinical activists, Marci Bowers — an infamous trans-identifying surgeon featured on Matt Walsh’s documentary What Is a Woman? — discussed the future sexual dysfunction that children whose puberty “was truly blocked” will face.

“Are they going to be able to achieve sexual satisfaction?” Bowers asks. “It’s important in relationships. And I know that from my work with female genital-mutilation survivors that the lack of being able to be intimate with a partner is very important. And so this is what really raised the red flag for me.”

Bowers rightly compares these treatments to female genital mutilation and yet, despite identifying this as a “red flag,” shows no signs of stopping the experiments.

Which is worse? Being so invested in an ideology that you can’t admit what you’re really doing or admitting what you’re really doing and then doing it anyway?
