A major medical association, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, denounced surgeries for gender-confused minors, breaking from the establishment position developed by activist groups.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons will not be endorsing the transgender surgical mutilation of minors, according to a new report.
The trade group told City Journal’s Leor Sapir it “has not endorsed any organization’s practice recommendations for the treatment of adolescents with gender dysphoria.”
He said the society has “11,000 members and [represents] over 90 percent of the field in the U.S. and Canada.”
The announcement is the latest rejection of the transgender agenda, which has come under scrutiny for its false, ideological standards.
Additionally, it is a biological truth and a moral fact that no one can change his sex.
The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), often cited as an authority on surgical and chemical interventions despite being an LGBT pressure group, began claiming that “transitions” were “medically necessary” so insurance companies would pay for them.
The Biden administration also lobbied the activist group to omit age minimums for the permanent surgeries.
The revelations came out in court documents concerning challenges to Alabama’s restrictions on the procedures, which can leave individuals permanently infertile while also creating numerous health problems, including weakened bone density, inability to breastfeed, and other severe reproductive damage.
The Supreme Court will hear challenges to Tennessee’s restrictions on the procedures this upcoming term.
A WPATH doctor acknowledged in 2022 that puberty blockers are not actually reversible. “There’s challenges with puberty suppression that we have to acknowledge and that’s why it’s ‘reversible asterisks,’” Dr. Scott Leibowitz said. “One cannot be on puberty suppression endlessly. You get to a place where physiologically we need hormones.”
The American Academy of Pediatrics also let a small group of activists write their transgender standards, according to reporting by the Washington Free Beacon.
“Though the organization’s guidelines are framed as the consensus position of the AAP’s members, only a handful of physicians had a role in shaping them,” Aaron Sibarium wrote in 2022. “Instead, insiders say, the AAP is deferring to small, like-minded teams of specialists ensconced in children’s hospitals, research centers, and public health bureaucracies, rather than seeking the insights of pediatricians who see a wide cross-section of America’s children.”
Furthermore, a review by the United Kingdom’s National Health Service concluded that claiming interventions help individuals with gender dysphoria is baseless. Many of them will grow out of their confusion with time.

Other facilitators of the permanently damaging procedures have been caught waving through questionable cases for money.
Plume Clinic took less than 22 minutes to approve Gregg Re for testicle removal.
Re works for Matt Walsh and the Daily Wire and faked his way through the brief interview with Plume, which writes endorsement letters to surgeons so they will commit transgender surgeries.
Meanwhile, European medical experts and individuals who used to present themselves as the opposite sex have voiced opposition to the rapid growth of gender ideology.
