The United Kingdom has long been on the progressive end of the transgender issue, so when they pump the brakes, America should pay attention, says Nicole Russell, a contributor to The Daily Signal.

 

A high court in the United Kingdom recently ruled that children 16 years old and younger cannot be treated with puberty blocking hormone drugs, unless a court specifically rules otherwise.

 

Russell reports extensively on the transgender issue and joins the show to discuss her recent piece breaking down the U.K. court decision. She also explains the media’s response to actor Ellen Page, who now wishes to be called Elliot, coming out as transgender, and how the internet plays a big role in encouraging young people to transition.

 

Plus, Dr. Kevin Pham, a Visiting Policy Analyst at The Heritage Foundation, joins us to explain how we can safely date during COVID. And as always, we’ll be crowning our Problematic Woman of the Week!

 

Enjoy the show!
