But you can\u2019t really answer this question without asking a more important one: Can a young boy or a girl actually change genders?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I asked this question myself, starting at age 12. I gave the wrong answer.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>I was a classic tomboy \u2014 a girl who didn\u2019t act and dress the way other girls did. I never felt like I fit in. But instead of realizing that I was in a normal phase of life, I got sucked into the world of social media and video games. That\u2019s where I met people who told me that no, I wasn\u2019t actually a girl. They told me I was a boy. That I should change my body to reflect who I &#8216;really was inside.&#8217;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I believed them. I went to doctors who gave me puberty blockers, blocking my normal development. Soon after, they started me on cross-sex hormones, so that I\u2019d start to look more like a boy. Then, at age 15, the doctors gave me a double mastectomy. I figured that without a girl\u2019s chest, I\u2019d finally be happy. As a boy, why would I want to keep my breasts?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By age 16, I realized how wrong I was. But I couldn\u2019t go back. The puberty blockers and hormones changed my body, to the point that I no longer recognized myself in the mirror. And the chest surgery \u2014 how do you undo that? I\u2019m now in my early 20s, and to this day, I have bandages where my breasts used to be.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I know the truth now: I\u2019m a girl. I always have been. I always will be. I can\u2019t change that \u2014 because it\u2019s scientifically and biologically impossible. No matter how many drugs or surgeries they get, kids who think they\u2019re transgender really aren\u2019t. They\u2019re just confused. And in their confusion, doctors and activists are pushing them down a road of even more confusion. It\u2019s also a road of unspeakable grief, worse than anything I ever experienced when I was 12 and felt like I didn\u2019t fit in.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-media fn-video\">\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div data-video-tags=\"on_air,personality|laura_ingraham,on_air|the_ingraham_angle,us|education,us|education|controversies,us|education|parents,us|education|administration,primary_us,us\" data-video-title=\"Parents sue after 11-year-old girl allegedly forced to share bed with transgender student on school trip\" data-video-id=\"6385590094112\" data-video-domain=\"foxnews\" data-video-type=\"CLIP\" data-widget-type=\"embed\" class=\"m video-player\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 100%\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>These deeply confused kids are at the center of the case before the Supreme Court. We\u2019re talking about boys who are competing against girls, which is deeply and obviously unfair. Even a boy who\u2019s taken puberty blockers and hormones is going to have an advantage over girls. It\u2019s basic science, written into their biology. No medical treatment can change who they are. Sex-change treatments just cover up the truth under a veneer of self-deception and socially acceptable lies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The justices must see through it all. No doubt, the lawyers on the transgender side will try to trick them with arguments about equal treatment and human rights. But this isn\u2019t about rights \u2014 it\u2019s about the deep and profound wrong that is child transgenderism.<\/p>\n<p>The only rights that are being violated are girls\u2019 rights to compete fairly, without being forced to go up against boys. And states have a right \u2014 and a duty \u2014 to protect girls. For that matter, states have a duty to protect all children from transgender treatments of any kind. The Supreme Court has already given states the green light to keep kids safe from radical activism masquerading as medicine. Now the justices should extend that logic by protecting girls\u2019 sports.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Because at the end of the day, this isn\u2019t just about law. It\u2019s about science and truth. And that\u2019s why the Supreme Court must reject the transgender lie.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Normally, the Supreme Court hears cases that deal with matters of law.&nbsp; But on Tuesday, Jan. 13, the justices will also be dealing with basic science.
