It is pretty sad state of affairs that Christianity has embraced the "Woke" ideology.

Blaire White's real name is Blaire White. People change names all the time. That's even in the Bible. What were the "real" names of Abraham, Israel and Paul? As for pronouns, in English "you" is gender neutral. I never got that "My pronouns are" thing. If you're taking to me I don't expect you to say "him." If I'm not around and you're talking about me, well I hope it's good. It's only an issue when there are three or more people talking and you say something about someone to someone else. For trans people I avoid using pronouns altogether. In other word's "Blaire" is my pronoun for "Blaire." And I generally don't call people "sir" or "ma'am" especially if I'm not sure. One irritation for me as a naturally born, and still am, male is that sometimes people who don't know me call me "ma'am" on the phone or over intercom systems. I don't at all think I have a female voice and nobody that I've ever asked about this thinks that, but somehow that comes across over electronic signals. That happened to me yesterday at McDonalds. I work an IT help line as my main job and sometimes I have callers with female sounding voices but typical male names. (I haven't had the reverse yet as far as I can recall).
Maybe you consider this "caving in" but my position is "What's the point?" What do I gain from trying to look up the name of someone just so I can call that person by a name that person never uses now? I feel different about people I knew before transitioning. If I have strong memories of you as "Joseph" those memories are not tied to "Josephine." Interestingly enough you see Jacob and Israel used interchangeably throughout the Bible, but Abraham and Paul are never called by their "dead names" once their names were changed.
Anyway, from a spiritual perspective I look at how Jesus treated the woman at the well. When He told her "You have five husbands, and the man you are living with is not your husband" it was clear he was neither condemning her as a person nor condoning her lifestyle. He acknowledged what was going in her life while He was offering her a much better life in every possible way. When she asked Him a direct theological question, worship in Jerusalem or in the mountains of Samaria, Jesus was direct but again not confrontational and ultimately offered something more. "You Samaritans don't know what you worship. Salvation is of the Jews. But eventually this Jerusalem/Samaria place of worship thing won't even matter because God is a Spirt. He's everywhere and He wants worshippers in spirit and in truth."
Recently High School Musical star Joshua Bassett took flack from the left for joining a conservative church that supports "conversion therapy." Now here's the funny part. Joshua is openly gay. Note I didn't say "was" openly gay. So even though there were no "rainbow flags" at the church signally they accepted his lifestyle, he felt comfortable joining. I think Jesus approves of that. The Bible says "By beholding we become changed." If Josh isn't comfortable enough to come to a church that upholds Biblical standards then how is he going to behold Jesus long enough to change?

Blaire is self described as "a transwoman who rejects gender ideology and trans activism."
One cannot possibly describe this situation any more succinctly.

Second Lawsuit Filed in US Against Medical Transition of Minors
Layla Jane accuses the defendants of “gross negligence” that led to permanent disfigurement.

Christina Buttons (14 June 2023)
The second legal action against a U.S. healthcare provider involving a case of childhood medical transition has been launched.
The suit was filed on behalf of Kayla Lovdahl, a young woman who was medically transitioned as a child. Lovdahl (also known as Layla Jane, her pen name) is seeking justice against the Permanente Medical Group, Kaiser Foundation Hospitals, and the clinicians who facilitated her transition from age 12 to 17. This process included puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and a double mastectomy performed when she was just 13 years old.
The lawsuit was filed by the Center for American Liberty, alongside Dhillon Law Group and LiMandri & Jonna LLP. They accuse the defendants of medical negligence, leading to “substantial injury” through chemical and surgical sex-change interventions carried out while Lovdahl was a minor. Despite the issuance of a Notice of Intent to Sue on March 15, 2023, the defendants failed to respond within the stipulated 90-day period, precipitating the subsequent lawsuit.
“The law says children aren’t mature enough to make serious decisions that could have long lasting consequences like getting a tattoo, driving with friends, drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, or even voting,” said Lovdhal. “So why is it acceptable for 13-year-olds to decide to mutilate their body?”
Harmeet Dhillon, the CEO of the Center for American Liberty, also represents Chloe Cole, another young woman seeking legal action against the same institutions and doctors for facilitating her transition as a minor. Dhillon said she is committed to holding the defendants accountable and intends to “strongly deter Kaiser’s factory-line approach that permanently mutilates an unknown number of American children, subjecting them to a lifetime of harm, regret, and medical consequences.”
According to the lawsuit, Lovdahl exhibited various mental health symptoms during her childhood, which went largely unaddressed despite her parents’ concerns and a family history of mental health problems. At 11, Lovdahl identified as transgender and socially transitioned to living as a boy. However, the lawsuit alleges that the defendants failed to sufficiently evaluate or treat her mental health symptoms, and instead affirmed her self-diagnosed transgender identity without thorough evaluation. Lovdahl started hormone treatment and puberty blockers at 12, underwent a double mastectomy at 13, and detransitioned at 17. She then started regular psychotherapy for her mental health issues.
The lawsuit claims the defendants breached the standard of care by rushing Lovdahl into a transition process without proper evaluation of her co-occurring mental health issues. Furthermore, it alleges that they did not provide thorough informed consent by withholding information about the risks and outcomes of the treatment. The lawsuit accuses the defendants of “gross negligence” that led to permanent disfigurement, referring to their practices as experimental rather than genuine care.
The suit cites studies showing high desistance rates of childhood gender dysphoria, suggesting that 80-90% of cases are resolved by adulthood. It also highlights the persistence of psychological distress among transgender individuals who undergo transition treatments, including increased risks of psychiatric disorders and suicide. Also mentioned are the systematic evidence reviews conducted in the U.K. and several other European countries that found the risks associated with puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones outweigh their benefits, and sufficient research on their long-term impact is lacking.
The defendants are accused of failing to provide appropriate informed consent. It’s suggested that regular psychotherapy would have been necessary to fully understand Lovdahl’s psychological condition and to provide a comprehensive understanding of her options and risks. They are alleged to have failed to disclose desistance/detransition rates and their limitations in predicting detransition, as well as to inform her about the dearth of high-quality studies in the field and the experimental nature of the treatment.
The lawsuit alleges that the defendants have actively promoted transgender treatment, including for minors, with misleading advertising on their websites. It argues that financial and political incentives have led to the expansion of transgender programs, sidelining sound medicine and science. As a result, Lovdahl has suffered permanent bodily damage, including irreversible mutilation, endocrine disorders, mental health issues, fertility risks, loss of feminine characteristics, and emotional distress.
This lawsuit marks Lovdahl as the eighth detransitioner globally to take legal action against medical providers that facilitated their chemical and surgical transition. She is seeking punitive damages “based on evidence of malice, oppression, and fraud.” The claim does not stipulate a specific monetary sum but seeks general damages, special damages, pre-judgment interest, legal costs, and any other relief the court deems appropriate. The exact sum will be determined during the trial.
While the exact number of detransitioners is unknown, and more research is needed, cases appear to be steadily rising. Recent studies have revealed a growing trend where individuals, upon detransitioning, acknowledge that their transgender identity was a temporary coping mechanism for their distress. Approximately three-quarters of detransitioners never inform their initial treating providers about their decision to detransition.
Despite these findings, the experiences of detransitioners are often overlooked or downplayed as infrequent. This dismissal is largely based on studies with considerable methodological flaws, including high rates of loss to follow-up, which can potentially exclude those who suffer the most severe consequences. Moreover, these rates are derived from adults who transitioned under circumstances that are substantially different from those facing today's youth, who often proceed without thorough psychological evaluations.
Current data suggests that 10-30% of individuals detransition a few years after starting their transition. A recent US-based comprehensive review of medical records that found 30% of teens and young adults had discontinued “gender-affirming” hormones after 4 years. Another US study from this year that challenges the notion that detransition is rare found that 29% of youth changed their requests for hormone treatment, surgery, or both.
Detransitioners are bringing to light several important issues, with many experiencing regret and suffering from irreversible and adverse outcomes from cross-sex hormones and gender-affirming surgeries. Some believe they were not in a position to give informed consent due to their age or mental health issues at the time of decision-making.
Watch: Detransitioner Chloe Cole sits down for the first full-length interview with Layla Jane.

May this trickle become a flood until the personal injury lawyers start advertising "If you or a member of your family received gender affirming care as a minor and you now regret it, please call this number so we can help you to receive compensation."

The lawsuits need to include the schools and those in authority that promote the ideology.

Should obese people sue those that sell food? Should gun manufacturers be sued for guns? Should alcohol companies be sued?
The crime is elevated to the top of government which now makes it parental abuse to not support this insane agenda.
Soon Hitler's actions will be seen as a small step and attempt to help humanity in comparison to what is happening now. Kinda how watergate was a nothing burger when compared to what takes place now.

So called "Health care providers" are pushing "gender affirming care" on parents as the way to prevent their children from committing suicide. That's a world away from someone selling a fat person pizza or anybody who passes a background check a gun. If you want a correct analogy, if a healthcare provider sold "weight loss pizza" that actually caused people to gain weight then yeah, they should be sued. I can't think of an actual gun analogy as guns are designed to kill...and that's what they do.
