American Girl TARGETS kids, pushes transitioning during 'very self-conscious, insecure years'

'American Girl has now been taken over by the malignant cancer that is progressivism'

The American Girl franchise has started selling a book called "A Smart Girl's Guide: Body Image," which actively encourages young girls who feel uncomfortable with their bodies to pursue gender transition. Not only does the book explicitly talk about "medicine to delay your body's changes" — in other words, puberty blockers — it also offers advice for how kids can deal with this with no input from their parents at all.

On "Relatable" this week, BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey blasted American Girl's so-called self-help guides for going from telling young girls that being a girl is a good thing to telling them to take extreme steps to stop being a girl if they feel "uncomfortable" with their bodies or want to change the way they look.

"You might recall growing up, American Girl had these books that they would put out about how to take care of your female body ... they were really just about taking care of yourself and being happy about your femininity. Everything that makes you a girl. Everything that turns you from a girl into a woman," Allie began.

"These are very awkward years. These can be very self-conscious, insecure years. And so these books were a way to support girls and to show them that it's okay, it's good to be a woman ... that really was what American Girl was about. To let girls know that it's good to be a girl, that girls have value, that girls bring a lot to the table," she continued.

"And yet, American Girl, just like ... nearly every institution, has now been taken over by the malignant cancer that is progressivism. And it has now bought into this lie, this dangerous and deadly lie, that it is possible for a person to be born in the wrong body and that a feeling that you have about your gender trumps biological reality. And that you might have to maim your body in order to fit that feeling [...] This is a pseudo-religious and superstitious belief that dismisses reality, that degrades the body, and it has lifelong consequences."

Allie urged parents to "send back the doll, the products, the books that you got from American Girl. Do not gift your children this for Christmas. Do not spend another cent there."

"I understand we can't boycott everything. I don't boycott everything. We just do the best that we can, but I think that this is a clear one," she added. "They're telling your girls that they can cut off their breasts and become something that they will never be. They are pushing infertility, sterility in your children. And guess what, parents, this author and the employees at American Girl are not going to be the ones there to pick up the pieces when your daughter is reeling from and dealing with the confusion and the destruction that this idea has wrought on her life. They're not going to be there when she's recovering from her mastectomy when she is 17 years old. They're not going to be there when she mourns her infertility when she's 25. They're not going to be there when she has surgery after surgery, doctor's appointment after doctor's appointment, because changing your gender through surgery never really works. They're not going to be there to pick up the pieces of her depression when she realizes that she maimed her body for nothing. You are."
