“If your child has a birth defect, you get help.”

Parents like this are part of the problem.

Children can no more “consent” to have their healthy breasts and genitalia removed than they can “consent” to have sex with an adult. It is monstrous to believe otherwise and those who do clearly fit this description and will ultimately be held to account for their actions.

By underage prostitutes do you mean children? And by much older men do you mean pedophiles?

A side note: There's much to doubt about the significance of the event at Compton's Cafeteria. There was no coverage of a riot in the San Francisco press. Trans activists claim that the press didn't cover such stories then, although press records show that they'd covered police enforcement stories regarding the gay community in the years immediately preceding and after the event. Stryker claims that police records were destroyed. Perhaps most significantly, no one, including Stryker, can narrow the date to anything closer than some weekend in August. Was there a disturbance at the Compton's Cafeteria that summer? Probably. Was it of the scale that Stryker would have us believe? I doubt it. He provides no corroborating evidence. He appears to have made no effort to track down anyone from Compton's, as Carter did with Stonewall. Besides, it must be noted, Screaming Queens is virtually useless as a documentaries go.

Good point about Stryker hyping the "riot." I worried about that but decided there was at least enough corroborating evidence about the general Comptons milieu. For example, accounts from the minister and the police officer. Plus, a lot of the facts Stryker cites don't make the "queens" look good! If he were inventing everything then he'd come up with a more flattering story, make Comptons more of a villain and so on.

Was the police officer there or is that the later community relations officer?

I meant the officer corroborated points about the SF transsexual scene. I added a note to the post about the "riot" turning on Stryker's credibility.

I stopped reading when I saw Mr. Susan Stryker quoted and know we can't believe a word he says. He recently got a slanderous article lying about me and quoting another man who has been harassing and stalking me since I was a teenager, in a former Lesbian publication, "Sinister Wisdom," which is now promoting the trans cult.

I mocked and debunked Stryker in this post.

Thank you. I'll read more. I just keep seeing him referred to as the expert on Lesbian community and we don't have his privilege to counter his trans propaganda.

Wow and thank you!

Would it be fair to say these were likely gay kids?

Can't prove it but there's so much circumstantial evidence. I'll talk more about the gay angle in Monday's piece.
