Family planning: our taxes, their intoxication

TRIBUNE. A group of intellectuals and doctors, including Élisabeth Badinter and Jean-François Mattei, denounce the scientific absurdities of Planning.

It's with the utmost seriousness that Planning familial, a popular education organization, assails us with scientific absurdities. First, there was this poster campaign: two men embracing, one of them with a strangely round belly. And above it, the caption: "At Planning, we know that men can get pregnant too. Never mind the biological impossibility. Then there was the Family Planning trans lexicon, "a lexicon designed for progressive learning". Here's a selection.

"Sex: A social construct based on average observations of biological differences between the sexes. It is generally accepted scientifically that sex is a spectrum. Can also refer to the genital apparatus. Assignment at birth: At birth, doctors decide, based on penis/clitoris length standards, whether the individual is a boy or a girl.

Gender reassignment: The sexual characteristics of people, whether cis or trans, are not binary and can change throughout their lives.

We'd love to know what "science" admits that in Homo sapiens sex is a spectrum. There's probably some confusion with crepidula or other animals that naturally change sex throughout their lives. We'd also like to know the critical length of the sexual organ that differentiates a boy from a girl.

Male and female, well known insults

In case you haven't understood, after a few novlangue terms such as "Cis-passing, Stealth, Out, Dicklit, Femmis/Ladyck or Morinom", Planning graciously presents us with a list of "Terms not to use", among which "Male/female" and "Masculine/feminine" come first. It's on the basis of this anti-scientific, quasi-sectarian dogma of intersectionality - a "learned" word used by woke ideology - that Planning prides itself on "educating" children from kindergarten to high school. For "Parler Lgbtphobie avec des collégien.nes" (Talking about Lgbtphobia with middle-school students), which cautiously adds "... in the presence of a school professional during sessions with the Planning familial facilitator" and invites teachers and students to "consult the trans lexicon" mentioned above! Inclusive writing, that writing you can't read, is of course de rigueur!

Our children and teenagers are in danger. Adolescence is a physiological, morphological and psychological earthquake. During this critical period, the teenager is weakened and plagued by self-doubt. They seek support not only from their peers, but also from a variety of sources, unfortunately not necessarily reliable or well-intentioned. This fragility is exploited by social networks, where untruths abound. With disastrous results.

Planned Parenthood in the wrong

Just look at the results of the recent Ifop survey carried out for the Jean-Jaurès and Reboot Foundations. We learn, for example, that 16% of young people aged 11 to 24 believe that the Earth is flat, a proportion which rises to 29% among TikTok regulars. TikTok is also used to convey outrageous messages encouraging children and teenagers to change sex. Hence the alarming explosion in requests for sex reassignment among young people, especially girls, that Western countries have seen in recent years. Some countries, liberal at first but now frightened by the scale of the phenomenon, are taking a step back and laying down the groundwork. France does not yet seem to be moved by this new health scandal.

How can an organization like Family Planning be allowed to stray into a policy that runs counter to its original vocation? Where are the struggles that led to the Neuwirth and Veil laws? What has become of the Planning organization that helped many young girls and women (dare we use the term) gain access to contraception and abortion? Since 2018 and its conversion to intersectionality, it's no longer a drift but a shipwreck. Planning has become a refuge for transactivist activists. Added to this social scandal is a financial one. Planning is an organization funded by the State and various local authorities to the tune of 2.8 million euros a year. In other words, it is financed by the taxpayer. At a time when it is necessary to control excessive public spending, it is urgent to make Family Planning subsidies conditional on strict compliance with its original aims and objectives.

Family Planning is one of three associations that have taken the French government to court to force it to comply with the law on sexuality education in schools. These associations appear to be unaware that health and sexuality education has been part of school curricula at all levels for many years. On the other hand, it would appear that Family Planning has disqualified itself and should no longer be authorized to intervene with schoolchildren. At least as long as the organization cannot guarantee the overhaul we are advocating, and the rigorous scientificity of its proposals, Family Planning's training courses constitute a danger to public health.

The subsidized dissemination of such scientific untruths to suffering teenagers in need of help is a real scandal. Responsible elected representatives and the relevant ministries urgently need to get to grips with this social problem. Hence our cry of alarm.
