Contributed by the grandmother of a trans-identified child… It was all very well being an emperor, but the Emperor didn’t have a lot to do. He had plenty of time to view himself in the gold-framed mirrors that adorned the walls of his bathrooms, his ballrooms, his bedrooms, his staircases, his banqueting halls and his landings. He liked to pass the time by looking at himself and, best of all, he liked to take selfies.
Below is a very bad but true story. And, Richard/Rachael Levine was elevated from PA secretary of health to US Assistant Secretary for Health after this. There are a number of bad actors here who have much to answer for including Levine, the Biden Administration, these plastic surgeon groups who profit off of hurting confused children.... I guess it will be a good scam for them until they go to jail.
"Pennsylvania House Bill 1933 would have ended taxpayer funding for cross-sex medical treatments for minors, but the bill failed to pass following vocal opposition from activists and groups of plastic surgeons who communicated with Levine, according to emails obtained by parental rights activist Megan Brock through a documents request and shared with the DCNF. Levine, who at the time was the state’s acting secretary of health, thanked University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) Plastic Surgery Chief Joseph Losee for a letter he had shared in opposition to HB 1933 on behalf of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and the Robert H. Ivy Pennsylvania Society of Plastic Surgeons."
I love it! I’ve been reading a lot of YA books of the “trans” genre - yes, it has its own literary genre now - to learn about their persuasive techniques - and many of the plots are reworked for an adolescent audience. This remake on an old classic accomplished the same from an opposing point of view. Oh, how I hope writing like this will reach its target audience.
Thank you for this version of the old tale, with appropriate flourishes. I want to quibble about a few details, minor adjustments which a boring, old Transwidow would make, wouldn't she?
When a man takes estrogen (actually estradiol) it takes a few years (about 2-4 years) for it to work, depending on age. It takes longer the older he is as his metabolism has slowed down. The hair on his head grows thicker, including on the crown and it grows in where it was previously receeding on the temples. Depending on the individual the hair may grow in much more greasy (estrogen changes the activity of sebaceous glands in hair follicles). The beard gets thinner and thinner and may disappear, leaving him with a strangely "polished", shiny chin and no moustache. Hair on the chest, forearms and legs also largely disappears. He puts on fat as "moobs" (not "pert" boobs) and also around the hips and waist. He becomes a "fat woman". There are no changes to the bones or connective tissues, so the hips stay the same as before, and the spine stays long and strong. This man will never shrink with age (as normal old people do). This means that he will always stick out like a sore thumb in a Ladies toilet or changing room. The testes and scrotum atrophy and he cannot hold an erection. The details of castration, and slitting and inverting the penis to create a neovagina are too disgusting to discuss here, but can be found - there is even a CGI animation available somewhere on the internet! The mental changes are profound and adverse: this man is no longer alert and reacting to the emotions of family and friends. Instead he is in a world of drugged detachment from reality, with blood-shot eyes and - reserved for the family members who know who he REALLY is - the appalling bullying behaviour known as "gas-lighting", the tormenting behaviour of a truly insane man exacting "validation" of the impossible. Gas-lighting is "top-level narcissism". It is a "blow-torch" version of the "strangers narcissism" which you have correctly described. This man/Emperor has cut himself off from reality and will not make it back unless he makes a huge effort to understand himself, as Walt Heyer did and describes in www.sexchangeregret.com.
Thank you for entering the mind of the narcissist.
Great story, and so appropriate. Also very entertaining. The part about the dog made me cringe. The part about the childish flag made me laugh. The ending gave me hope.
Yes, excellent writing, and a great analogy to describe drag queens or Dylan Mulvaney. But trivializes the mental anguish and suffering of gender dysphoric males, always afflicted by multiple comorbid psychological disorders that are ignored by healthcare professionals in favor of opposite hormone theRapey. Most gender dysphoric males are extremely sensitive and have endured extreme bullying and/or other childhood trauma, and have been subjected to video game addiction and porn exposure due the our pervasive and inescapable culture. They have also been told that they are born misogynistic oppressors, especially if they are "white". Given that boys are generally treated less gently than girls, who are protected as the "weaker" sex, it's easy to make a mockery of them. I know that light hearted humor can take the edge off of difficult topics, but this borders on malice and serves no role in healing our boys. I can't see this story written to represent a female garnering such enthusiastic praise. At least not from mothers of sons.
Love it!!! Please keep writing stories on this issue , the children and parents need all the help they can get. Its a war we are fighting, a war that's hurting children and tearing families apart...Thank you for sharing your story and keep writing...
Wonderfully written. Thank you. There were parts where I felt horror, disgust, and sorrow. That's good because we can't smooth it over. Art is truly a path into healing, isn't it? As a teacher, I taught at a school where some truly unjust stuff was going on. I couldn't change it (I left), but to process my feelings I wrote a Grimm's inspired Faerie Tale about it and let it all out. I only shared it with a very few. It truly helped.
To remember that apart of the original s story is that the people who could seen the emperors new clothes were the ‘special’ people. Those who could not were blind to reality. Until this part is challenged we are lost. Great writing, thank you.
I appreciate the author's creative energy to write this dark tale about this dark chapter of human history. It's hard to fathom how the harming of young people and shattering of families goes on and on when we could stop this nonsense as a collective group with collective wisdom and common sense. Easier said that done, though, as the "trans" train continues its destructive path.
Excellent story. Oh, if only the Emperor would open his eyes to the truth!
I have been saying for a minute that we have tons of classical stories we can re-use for this fight.
The Frog Princess: except that the frog is a male, and remains a frog when he is kissed.
Pinocchio: except that he is a boy who wants to be a real wooden doll.
Peter Pan" except Peter is a girl who hates the idea of growing up and pretends to be a boy, while Tinkerbell is a huge bearded Hagrid type in a tutu.
Very good story. Thank you.

A brilliantly written dystopian tale! Well done Grand Ma!
What a brilliant truth tale. Brava!
Let's see.... my list of great literature....
1) The Bible
2) Shakespeare
3) This story.
An apt description of the awful transformation, but a bit skimpy on the road back! Here is an excellent roadmap for deprogramming:

This is exceptionally well written and it contains great insight into the narcissistic culture created by social media.
