When it comes to the radical trans agenda targeting America's youth, at least one Kiss rocker isn't loving it out loud.
In a statement posted on Twitter, Paul Stanley, one of the iconic band's founders, blasted so-called "gender-affirming" medical procedures for kids and slammed parents who encourage their child to try to change their gender simply because they don't fit the stereotypical image of a feminine girl or masculine boy.
"There is a BIG difference between teaching acceptance and normalizing and even encouraging participation in a lifestyle that confuses young children into questioning their sexual identification as though some sort of game and then parents in some cases allow it," the Starchild wrote in his comments.
"There ARE individuals who as adults may decide reassignment is their needed choice but turning this into a game or parents normalizing it as some sort of natural alternative or believing that because a little boy likes to play dress up in his sister’s clothes or a girl in her brother’s, we should lead them steps further down a path that’s far from the innocence of what they are doing," he went on. "With many children who have no real sense of sexuality or sexual experiences caught up in the ‘fun’ of using pronouns and saying what they identify as, some adults mistakenly confuse teaching acceptance with normalizing and encouraging a situation that has been a struggle for those truly affected and have turned it into a sad and dangerous fad."

The tweet has already gotten more than 32,000 "likes" to just 6,400 comments, meaning the vast majority of viewers appear to agree with Stanley's take.
Despite getting the expected wave of backlash from angry leftists on social media, Stanley's not wrong. Many teens and young adults who've begun the "detransitioning" process back to their biological gender have shared chilling stories of how they were encouraged by their family or their peers to "transition" as young, impressionable kids or teens, often simply because they didn't fit the typical definition of a girly-girl or a masculine boy, or because they didn't crave the sexual experiences they thought were expected of them. Their struggles with gender dysphoria were often embraced by supposed medical "experts" who immediately recommended heavy regimens of body-altering artificial hormones and even permanent mutilating surgeries like voluntary mastectomies, hysterectomies, and dangerous phalloplasty or vaginoplasty surgery to create artificial - but non-functioning - genitalia. Their heartbreaking stories go ignored by the leftist mafia who prefer to push gender confusion for "inclusivity" and political points at the expense of the mental health and physical wellbeing of children and suffering adults.

It's not yet clear why Stanley felt the need to express his views on the subject on social media, and it's certainly not common to see a Hollywood celeb facing down the alphabet mafia in defense of kids. But when it comes to protecting children against the harmful agenda of the "woke" gender-bending mob, we'll take all the help we can get.
