…researcher Dr. James Cantor said that the internal communications of WPATH show that Levine “strongly pressured WPATH leadership to rush the development and issuance of SOC-8,” their latest standards of care for trans persons, “in order to assist with Administration political strategy.” Levine has said that “trans kids” are an “inspiration.“
This means that Levine pressured a group of medical professionals to hurry up and issue guidance on how to treat children with gender dysphoria in order to aid her boss’ political aims. Joe Biden, Levine’s top boss, instructed all federal agencies to be more trans-inclusive on his first day in office in 2021.
The previous guidelines had said that sex change drugs could be administered as young as 14, surgeries to remove healthy breasts could be done at 15, and genital surgeries, other than phalloplasty for females, could be done at 17. Phalloplasty was not recommended until age 18 due to complexity of the process of removing tissue from one part of the body, reconstructing it to resemble a phallus, and surgically grafting it onto the pubic area.
