Writes Linda P.:
Dear Lew,
I watched the video posted by Charles Burris on the blog about potential causes of transgenderism. Although Mark Dice mentioned in the video several oft-referenced potential causes, there is one that nobody wants to discuss. It strikes at the heart of the sexual revolution and the feminist movement, the biggest endocrine distruptor of all: birth control.
From the day a female baby is born, she carries inside of her half of the genetic make-up of all of her potential children. Whatever she puts into her body, or experiences throughout her life can have a potential effect on her future babies. A woman pregnant with a baby girl also carries her potential grandchildren inside her baby, so there is even a generational effect in what a woman consumes for her grandchildren.
Most men are unaware of the fact that birth control is the pharmaceutical of choice for many female problems. It is given out without any worry for teenage acne and just about any menstrual cycle issue a girl experiences. It is ubiquitous, even aside from its use as birth control. Do any of us know what this kind of hormonal tinkering on women is doing to generation after generation of children? No, and nobody wants to look. But I have a strong suspicion that we can already see the answer all around us.
