Daily Wire host Matt Walsh posted an in-depth exposé Wednesday on the troubling past of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH)‚ a medical organization that creates the widely accepted “Standards of Care” for so-called transgender medicine. Walsh revealed WPATH’s “sordid” history after the research group Environmental Progress analyzed hundreds of pages of internal posts and videos obtained by its founder‚ journalist Michael Shellenberger. The group’s findings on WPATH‚ which were unveiled in an X thread by Shellenberger earlier this week‚ show members of the trans medical organization discussing essentially experimenting on young people. “WPATH — the organization that creates the widely accepted Standards of Care for ‘trans medicine’ — was a radical cult from the very beginning‚” Walsh wrote. “WPATH’s origin story traces back to a gender-confused‚ new-age‚ drug-addicted‚ lesbian rich kid named Rita Erickson‚ her prolific nudist friend‚ Zelda Suplee‚ and their Erickson Educational Foundation (EEF)‚” the Daily Wire host added. 1/🧵WPATH — the organization that creates the widely accepted Standards of Care for “trans medicine” — was a radical cult from the very beginning. Watch my full exposé into their sordid &; untold history: https://t.co/59knoR0lYP — Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) March 6‚ 2024 Walsh dives into the troubling history of how EEF helped “fund the people &; organizations that became WPATH‚” people such as Dr. Harry Benjamin‚ Dr. John Money‚ and Dr. Anne Lawrence. Later in his thread‚ Walsh reveals troubling details of each of these doctors and their practices. Benjamin supported “vaginoplasties” to create fake vaginas on males‚ despite admitting that the procedure really creates “wounds” which could degrade and become “obliterated‚” Walsh said. Money meanwhile encouraged twin boys‚ one of whom he was pushing to “transition‚” to inspect each other’s genitals and engage in behavior resembling sexual intercourse‚ according to Walsh. One of the boys would later commit suicide and the other died of a drug overdose. Lawrence‚ a man‚ “admits to having autogynephilia‚ a paraphilia where he is aroused by thinking of himself as a woman‚” Walsh said. Lawrence also resigned from a hospital after he performed a genital exam on an unconscious woman‚ according to an incident report. Even after the incident‚ Lawrence remained active in WPATH’s “Standards of Care.” “It’s time for the medical profession to do what it should have done long ago‚ and shut down these con artists before they hurt anyone else‚” the Daily Wire host added. WPATH — as recently as this year — acknowledged its beginning with the EEF and its connection to Benjamin. The Biden administration has also cited WPATH’s “Standards of Care” in its defense of gender surgeries on children and its support of using taxpayer dollars to pay for the life-altering procedures on minors.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has invited Riley Gaines‚ a former collegiate swimmer-turned-female rights advocate‚ to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Thursday‚ Johnson’s office exclusively told The Daily Wire. Gaines has become a leading advocate for girls and women’s sports and spaces after she was shoved aside for a biological male at the 2022 NCAA Division 1 women’s swimming tournament. Gaines competed in the women’s 200 freestyle and placed fifth‚ tying with male trans-identifying swimmer Lia Thomas. However‚ only Thomas received the fifth place trophy for the photo-op after the event‚ while Gaines was told by the NCAA that her trophy would come in the mail. “Riley Gaines is a role model for America’s women and girls‚ inspiring them to unlock their potential and do the right thing‚ even when it isn’t popular‚” Speaker Johnson told The Daily Wire. “Right now‚ the White House is attacking athletes like Riley‚ undermining the integrity of women’s athletics‚ and pushing for men to take scholarships and roster spots from women.” “I’m grateful to host Riley at the State of the Union and am proud to join her in her efforts to save women’s sports‚” Johnson added. Gaines told The Daily Wire she’s excited to be Speaker Johnson’s guest. “He has been steadfast in his support of Title IX and the importance of maintaining its original intent‚” she said. “As the Biden Administration pursues their illegal administrative rewrite of Title IX‚ I’m confident Speaker Johnson will fight for women and common sense as he’s already done.” Notably‚ the Biden administration has proposed changes to rewrite Title IX to include so-called “gender identity.” This would mean most policies banning biological males who identify as trans from competing with or against females would be in violation of law. Schools who don’t comply with the rule change could be stripped of funding. Johnson has also invited Dr. Wayne Lewis Jr.‚ the president of Houghton University‚ a Christian school in upstate New York. This month‚ Lewis fiercely spoke out against men participating in women’s sports. “Biological males’ participation in women’s athletics is wrong‚” he wrote. “Most Americans and most of the world know it to be wrong.” “A fringe agenda under the guise of making school and collegiate athletics more inclusive for transgender people has grown to the place of now unfairly displacing gifted and hardworking female athletes‚ obliterating the historic achievements and records of female athletes of the past‚ and threatening to dismantle the opportunities and protections for girls and women in sport trailblazing leaders fought so hard to create and protect‚” Lewis added.
