But in the fuller episode clip <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/S0Si8zEkyjY\">posted to YouTube<\/a> earlier this year, it becomes apparent that wasn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s an area of intense debate. Today you\u2019ll meet families coping with this astonishing reality. What does it mean to be a boy? What does it mean to be a girl? Those two simple questions are infinitely complex and gut-wrenching for parents of children who are born transgender,&#8221; Dr. Oz says. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>First up is Josie, an 8-year-old &#8220;transgender child&#8221; who is biologically male, but is allowed by her parents to live as a girl.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>&#8220;8-year-old Josie was born Joseph. Physically she\u2019s a boy. But from the time she could talk, Josie knew she was a girl. Her sex on the outside, didn\u2019t match how she felt on the inside, and that\u2019s how every transgender child feels. Children like Josie may start showing signs of transgender as early as two or three. This extraordinary condition is not as rare as you might think. It\u2019s estimated that three million Americans believe they were born the wrong sex.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Backing up this narrative is Oz\u2019s resident pediatrician Dr. Robert Garofalo. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>&#8220;She was fighting me and crying and having fits, and demanding that she wear the pink leggings and the denim little skirts that she wanted to wear. When we\u2019d go to the store she\u2019d go to that, gravitate towards the girl\u2019s section, not the little boy\u2019s section that I wanted to put on her,&#8221; Vanessa says of Josie.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Vanessa believes allowing Josie to live as a girl cured other ailments. &#8220;She took seventeen doses of medication a day, fourteen different medications, to try and get her to fit into this mold for depression, anxiety, ADHD, she was\u2026 you know, Tourette&#8217;s went in there at the end.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Dr. Garofalo admits that doctors don\u2019t fully understand the long-term consequences of this lifestyle change.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Dr. Oz introduces 15-year-old female-to-male Isaac as someone who wanted to &#8220;take control&#8221; of their body when gender swapping. We learn that as a kid, Isaac wanted a penis, but soon grew breasts and began menstruating. Isaac\u2019s parents approved a double mastectomy and expressed their joy at the change in Isaac\u2019s mood on the Dr. Oz show.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Dr. Garofalo provides a pro-transgender analysis. Dr. Oz asks Isaac what would\u2019ve happened if there were laws in place to prevent gender surgeries until Isaac was 18. He responds it\u2019d have likely been four more years of depression, until the teen was a legal adult who could sign off on these sorts of decisions, personally.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>When it comes to the Pennsylvania Senate primary, locals are reacting with confusion about former President Trump\u2019s recent endorsement of Dr. Mehmet Oz.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p> A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/opinion\/columnists\/what-the-hell-was-he-thinking-pennsylvania-conservatives-react-to-trumps-support-of-oz\"><em>Washington Examiner<\/em><\/a><em> <\/em>article outlining the backlash has officials saying Trump is &#8220;out-of-sync&#8221; with the Republican base on this one. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\"><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Mehmet Oz claims to be conservative in his race for the GOP Senate nomination in Pennsylvania, but the talk show host\u2019s past history on the topic of &#8220;transgender<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":498,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1432219","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1432219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/498"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1432219"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1432219\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1432219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1432219"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1432219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
