On Monday, it was revealed that health care company Kaiser Permanente held multiple Pediatric Gender Expression Care workshops over the summers with topics ranging from managing fear of changes, to outward expressions of gender identity.
The workshop, which was brought to light by evolutionary biological Colin Wright on Twitter, was held virtually over the summer with eight sessions out over June, July, and August. An email, obtained by Wright, outlined the eight week workshop series, stated that it “will provide a comfortable and safe environment for kids and their parents or guardians to explore social gender identity and learn ways to comfortably express themselves.”
The workshop was open to Kaiser Permanent members between the ages of 12-17 who identify as transgender or non-binary. Sessions were held separately from parents, with adolescents attending the first hour and parents attending the second hour. The final session, held on August 3, was held jointly.
The email includes a number of topics likely to be covered in the sessions, with the email noting that topics may be “modified to the individual needs of participants.”
These topics included: “setting goals for gender expression,” “Reflection and Reset -Validating Emotions, Grieving, Navigating Loss of Identity,” “Changing Bodies – Normalizing fear, what to expect and cope with fear of changes,” and “navigating self-expression.”
Kaiser Permanente runs the Northwest Gender Pathways Clinic as well as other gender-specified clinics across the country.
At Northwest Gender Pathways Clinic, specialist teams provide treatment including hormone therapy, counseling for gender-affirming healthcare, hair removal, pubertal suppressants, surgical evaluations and procedures, and speech therapy which they call “gender-affirming communication therapy.”
The clinic’s website links to the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH). It was recently revealed that an early draft of the group’s 8th edition of their Standards of Care lowered their minimum age recommendations for children to start receiving […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
