Chicago’s largest kids’s hospital has partnered with native college districts to advertise radical gender concept, “kink,” “BDSM” and “trans-friendly” intercourse toys for kids.
Insider paperwork I’ve obtained reveal this troubling collaboration between gender activists at Lurie Youngsters’s Hospital of Chicago and college directors all through the Chicago space.
These paperwork, and a overview of school-district web sites, present Lurie Youngsters’s Hospital has offered supplies to highschool leaders selling radical gender concept, trans activism and sexually specific supplies in at the very least 4 Chicago-area public-school techniques: districts 75, 120, 181 and 204.
Per a whistleblower, these paperwork had been circulated to directors, lecturers and different workers on the middle-school and high-school stage as a part of ongoing employee-training applications.
The first coaching doc, “Past Binary: Gender in Faculties,” follows the essential narrative of educational queer concept: White, Western society has created an oppressive gender binary, falsely dividing the world into the classes of man and lady, that has resulted in “transphobia,” “cissexism” and “systemic discrimination” towards racial and sexual minorities.
Variations of the doc had been attributed to Jennifer Leininger, Lurie’s Group Applications and Initiatives affiliate director, and Hadeis Safi, a “nonbinary” genderactivist who makes use of “they/them” pronouns and works for the hospital’s LGBTQ and Gender Inclusion program — which advertises its care for kids with “gender expansive” identities and provides “gender-affirming” medical procedures, together with puberty blockers for kids.
The presentation encourages lecturers and directors to assist “gender variety” of their districts, mechanically “affirm” college students who announce sexual transitions and “talk a non-binary understanding of gender” within the classroom. The target, one model of the presentation suggests, is to disrupt the “entrenched [gender] norms in western society.”
In at the very least two districts, Lurie Youngsters’s Hospital activists additionally suggested lecturers to supply a collection of sexually specific sources to kids as younger as 11. On the finish of the “Past Binary” presentation circulated to lecturers in districts 75 and 120, the hospital advisable a “Binder Change Program” to help teenage women in binding their breasts, a “child pleasant web site for gender affirming gear,” which sells objects reminiscent of synthetic penis “packers” and female-to-male “trans masc pump[s],” and an “LGBTQ pleasant intercourse store for teenagers” that sells a variety of dildos, vibrators, harnesses, “anal toys,” “trans-friendly toys” and “kink & BDSM” tools.
The hyperlinks embody graphic descriptions of sadomasochism, bondage, pornography and transgressive intercourse.
Moreover these supplies on gender concept, Lurie Youngsters’s Hospital has additionally launched a coverage information for varsity directors, encouraging districts to undertake a “gender-affirming method” to the curriculum; present “gender-affirming kids’s books” at school libraries; and permit college students to compete in athletic occasions, use restroom and locker rooms and sleep in bunks throughout in a single day college journeys in accordance with their “gender identification” relatively than their organic intercourse.
The hospital additionally advocates college districts designate “Gender Assist Coordinators” to assist facilitate kids’s sexual and gender transitions, which, underneath the advisable “confidentiality” coverage, might be stored secret from mother and father.
“District workers shall not disclose a pupil’s transgender identification,” the coverage reads. “Earlier than contacting the dad or mum(s)/guardian(s) of a pupil who's transgender or gender nonconforming, District workers ought to ask the scholar what title and pronouns they want college officers to make use of in communications with their mother and father.”
Past the lurid nature of a few of the content material, these paperwork reveal a profoundly disturbing collusion between radical gender activists within the medical system and the public-school forms. They've laundered the promotion of queer concept, artificial sexual identities and baby intercourse toys underneath the guise of “well being and schooling,” devoting important sources towards constructing what coverage analyst Leor Sapir has known as “a school-to-clinic pipeline.”
The method is straightforward: Youngsters find out about and undertake “gender expansive” identities in colleges, which then direct them to gender clinics that may present puberty blockers, hormone therapies, surgical procedures and drug regimens that always add as much as tons of of hundreds of dollars.
The cynical interpretation of this pipeline would counsel it’s pushed by the revenue motive. However one other present is ideological: Radical gender activists imagine they're in a battle for liberation from the system of “cisheteropatriarchy” — and every “gender non-conforming” baby is one other device in that struggle.
