Mutilation is not Transformation

Ellen (Eliot) Page opened her blouse to Oprah Winfrey yesterday (doubtless you
 saw the poignant promos) to gush of her breast removal, e.g. ‘top surgery.’
 
 ‘There I am...no breasts...completely transformed my life.’
 

Mutilation is not transformation. Ask Jazz Jennings, whose adolescence has been
 ‘punctuated’ by penis removal and the recurring incision of his scrotum so he can
 ‘experience’ some semblance of a vagina. (‘Trans’ girls in search of a vagina can
 only wound themselves: the cut closes, necessitating constant re-wounding.)
 
 Mutilation is not transformation. ‘Trans’-reality is a lie—you cannot transcend
 your body. You can only mutilate it according to sexual self-rejection, e.g. gender
 dysphoria.
 
 Only Jesus and a skilled community can help a dysphoric person align him or
 herself with reality, e.g. the bodies of our birth. Our bodies ask us to align self-
 perceptions with their truth.
 
 Humanity, endowed with grace, can recapture the truth of its sexual destiny from
 strongholds of delusion. All who refuse—and those who applaud such refusal—
 assist in the slow suicide of the ‘trans’-bound.
 
 Mutilation is not transformation. It is mutilation, swathed in tender mercies for
 the most vulnerable. Here Page pulls out her ace in the hole: ‘’If you are not going
 to give trans-kids healthcare (for their ‘transitions’) and allow them to play sports
 (boys pretending to be girls playing against girls), CHILDREN WILL DIE!’
 
 What? How? Because we have sense enough to help kids face reality? Spare us
 the appeal to immanent suicide if we refuse a child’s slow suicide in the form of
 sexual self-mutilation. We must advocate for reality in the lives of our young and
 assist them in recovering original sexual identity.
 
 Mutilation is not transformation. Transformation is transformation. ‘Do not
 conform any longer to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the
 renewing of your mind’ (Rom. 12: 2).
