Understanding Gender Dysphoria | Jason Evert

[@blitzzkrieg1400]

Always keep your great work going, Jason!

[@susansunday5958]

I just listened to your profound talk at the Eucharist congress in Indianapolis. I immediately googled your name. I want to share your talks with so many people. I wish everyone in this country could hear your talk on this topic. Praise God. Thank you for your wisdom and intelligence on this topic.

[@theRockSalter]

Oh excellent. This is the reasonable and rightful path for the Catholic to walk. Spread this message!

[@israeliana]

Amazing way to handle this. Love and compassion, but also the truth

[@collidingforces9589]

Excellent! just excellent! I am so sharing this!

When I was 5, I wanted trucks, matchbox cars and to play center field for the Yankees. The opposite of what the scientist found with her own child. I still tend to lean toward more masculine things even over 50 years later. I haven’t worn a dress since I wasn’t forced to at school. I was never attracted to men, I wanted to be like them, not have sex with them. I don’t know what would have happened to me if I was born in this day instead of the early 1960’s. Would I have transitioned? I don’t know. I’m too old to consider such things now, even if I could afford it.

I always played with boys growing up and had a favorite doll, but mostly liked my brother's matchbox garage or loaders. I liked guys later but more as friends and they never want that over 16 or so. I never wanted to be a boy although I told my mom, I liked how they could pee outside. lol She pointed out when I saw how they hurt falling on bike bars etc. we had a more beautiful body. I can"t imagine if someone had me think I should be fluid or whatever. A woman could like things not culturally feminine and still be fine.

I'm not a Catholic but this is true

[@PositiveWonder]

I’m a transgender Catholic who’s been transgender my entire life and went to Catholic School and was taught by elderly Nuns. They never judged me nor condemned me for how I dressed or how I naturally behaved which was opposite of my anatomy. The fact they didn’t judge or condemn me allowed me to develop a relationship with God. Had they behaved with judgment and condemnation it would have pushed me away from God. God doesn’t condemn transgender people. Some humans condemn transgender people. God made me who I am, and there is no one I can be other than myself. It would be an insult to God to force myself to be someone who I’m not in order to satisfy the judgments of some within the church. Remove the plank from your own eye before pointing out the speck in your neighbor’s eye.

[@David-jm6rq]

How can you say you've been transgender your whole life??? Just curious.

[@deb9806]

They prayed for your for sure but let God do the work.

[@PositiveWonder]

@@deb9806 Probably so. There are many good LGBTQIA people in the world and many bad straight people. I don’t think God is preoccupied about converting LGBTQIA people straight. He is probably concerned about how the church has pushed so many away and taught them God condemns them for who he made them to be. I think God is more concerned about the damage some Christians have done to LGBTQIA people in his name. The Christian religion is shrinking because the approach of condemnation and judgement used by many. It sends a negative message about God. Many humans love and accept LGBTQIA why would God be the hateful and rejecting toward them? Jesus is about unconditional Love and not judging others. He is the new Covenant. He replaced the old covenant. His message was to follow his example and love and be humble and give to the poor and be honest and kind. He hung out with the people many Christians today reject.

They only way to god is through Jesus Christ. Get to know Jesus through the bible. If you read the hole bible, old and new testament you will understand that it is not Christians that drive people away from the church or the belief in God But the place that God brings you to which is do you want to follow him or not. It's not easy to follow Christ. However as I have mentioned you need to read the bible as I can not tell you what you should do or judge you as this is god's judgement as God sees us as we really are so he will judge not Christians. If Christians are judging you or you think they are judging you look past them and read the bible for yourself as this is the place where you will find the answers you are looking for. Either way if you truly believe in the true Jesus according to the bible then you will understand who God really is instead of relying on hearsay or hurtful or thoughtless ramblings.

[@PositiveWonder]

@@Si-cb4kh I’ve known Jesus my whole life and know that his message is that Love of God and one another are his two most important commandments and any Christian who doesn’t follow his commandments is missing the point. He said that God is perfected within us through our love for him and one another. He spoke out against us judging one another’s imperfections. God is the judge not us.

How do those who claim God made them male and female, clarify individuals born with both male and female organs, and those individuals born with male organs on the outside and female organs on the inside and vice versa?🤔 So much happens in the womb, that speakers like this are unaware of how to explain! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink

[@bajone02]

Nature can be confused. No doubt. Those persons will have special struggles in life, no doubt. God loves them just the same. No doubt. No need for society and medicine to make things more difficult or shameful for these individuals. No doubt.

[@canaryliina]

Infinit number of personalities not genders.

[@n.c.108]

Dysphoria means you need help

[@icouldbejokingbut]

To trans your gender

[@israeliana]

Until recent political nonsense, Gender Dysphoria yes been recognized as a mental health condition. It is psychologically rooted nonetheless. The same as *body dysmorphia* and anorexia, etc. Don't let leftist politics tell you otherwise

[@tjgetz7052]

I will say this. Jason Everett seem to hate men. No matter how many time I heard him talk he never straight up says positive things about men. You know it stuff like this which make it understandable why year over year 1/3 of Catholic men leave the church. The topic of trans is touchy right now mainly because it has become religious. You can't question the doctrine of gender ideology. The unfortunate reality is there is no middle ground here. Which is sad 😔

[@bajone02]

Sorry, friend. If you hear disdain for men in anything Jason says, you are listening through the filter of the bad little angel sitting on your shoulder. Please listen more to the other shoulder's little angel. Jason holds men accountable to be leaders and protectors as St. Joseph modeled for them.
