‘Identity Crisis’ Sounds Alarm on Gender-Affirming Care

In popular culture, individuals who critique “gender-affirming care” often go unheard, along with detransitioners – people who underwent gender reassignment surgeries but now express regret about their decisions.

“Identity Crisis” changes that.

This collaborative documentary produced by Turning Point USA and DailyWire+ challenges the commonly held progressive perspectives regarding transgender youth. Instead, it presents an alarming portrayal of potential misguidance in medical practices, influence from societal conditioning, and unfortunate situations where children find themselves unwittingly embroiled in these issues.

It’s as one-sided as a Michael Moore documentary, but its power is in voices too often ignored.

Adam Vena is a father who tragically lost his son at the age of two. His former partner has been undergoing a transition that has resulted in their child being identified as a girl. Despite his wishes, there’s nothing Adam can do to change this situation. He’s heartbroken because he can’t even visit his child and it’s causing him immense pain.

The law stands against him. So does much of the culture.

“All I wanna do is hold my son.”

The narrative of Adam serves as the core of “Identity Crisis,” humanizing the challenges experienced by parents who disagree with gender-affirming therapy. One of the troubling aspects presented in the documentary is that some instances involve incredibly young children.

  • Why is this happening?
  • How do doctors financially benefit from creating life-long patients?
  • And why do detransitioners say they receive lesser care than their pre-transition selves?

The documentary delves deeply into these essential topics, revealing a hasty decision-making process along with large-scale manipulation via social media platforms. The ongoing debate about the fate of TikTok becomes strikingly clear.

What are our kids watching?

It seems like the voices of those in the detransition movement are getting drowned out amidst all the noise from the media. Is it intentional that they’re not being given more attention?

In the story “Identity Crisis,” characters express feelings that are truly sorrowful, as illustrated by Laura Becker’s situation. At a young age, Laura transitioned, but now harbors deep regret. The anguish she experiences is evident.

“We are the canary in the coal mine,” she warns.

Intriguingly, Buck Angel, a transgender man and ex-porn star, is the most captivating voice in this movie. He criticizes gender-affirming care for minors, which sparks debates among some people. For others, his presence effectively undermines the accusation of bigotry.

A more approachable way to phrase “Identity Crisis” could be “Mismatched Priorities”: Instead of relying on media figures like Chaya Raichik (Libs of TikTok), it’s crucial that we focus more on professionals such as doctors and conduct thorough research instead.

Experts might have hesitated to participate in the movie due to the chilling backstory associated with this project. Expressing disagreement with the Left’s perspective on transgender youth often results in potential problems, whether professionally or personally.

Just ask J.K. Rowling.

The cultural influence of “Identity Crisis” remains relevant today, as evidenced by the insightful commentary provided by James Lindsay, an author and critic who has been closely following this movement. Although he is not a medical professional, his perceptive insights have left a lasting impression on many.

Instead of using trigger warnings for scenes depicting teenagers undergoing physical transitions to the opposite sex, such warnings can often be seen as unnecessarily restrictive, overly cautious, or even absurd.

Not here.

The surgical images are hard to watch and, sadly, necessary. We can’t turn away. Nor should we.

An ‘Identity Crisis’ serves as a call for increased dialogue on a topic that significantly affects our young generation. The fact that a documentary was necessary to give voice to these concerns speaks volumes about the situation.

Speaking Out At Last: “Identity Crisis” Gives a Platform to those Critical of Gender-Affirming Care. It’s essential that their perspectives are shared.
