Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey

I started listening to this podcast in high school when looking for more information and education on Pro-Life issues. It has been so helpful and encouraging in hearing more about important issues from a female, Pro-Life, Biblical perspective. I also attribute the podcast to helping me understand the craziness of the last four years. Now, I have finished college and am working at a Crisis Pregnancy Center. When I leave work and listen to this podcast, I find myself encouraged again to work hard for the cause of defending the unborn! I also appreciate how Allie turns to Scripture in heavy or hard moments to provide the right frame of reference in these situations. I definitely would recommend this for any young woman like me looking for help in understanding this country and knowing that we are not alone in these values!

Reading your book. In general - overall good stuff. Want to point out something about gender clinics in the 1970’s. Not as few as book implied in the 1970s, the U.S. had around 40 to 50 gender clinics offering some form of medical care to transgender individuals. These clinics were primarily based at academic medical centers and specialized hospitals, which were at the forefront of early gender-affirming care. Many of these clinics provided a range of services, including psychological counseling, hormone therapy, and in some cases, gender-affirming surgeries. However, this network of clinics faced a significant setback following a 1979 study at Johns Hopkins led by Dr. Paul McHugh, which cast doubt on the effectiveness of gender-affirming surgeries. The study, though later criticized for methodological limitations, suggested that surgical intervention might not provide the expected psychological benefits. This study influenced other institutions and contributed to a wave of clinic closures in the late 1970s and early 1980s. By the mid-1980s, only a few clinics remained operational, and transgender medical care became much more restricted until renewed interest and research helped the field expand again in the 1990s and 2000s. Note: John Hopkins was one of the first clinics to close.

Didn’t realize this podcaster was a racist and anti-women’s rights supporter 😊 Disgusting to find out - will be removing from all platforms. I am a Christian believer myself, and yes Jesus would have voted blue. Praying for the renewal of your mind, in Jesus name 💙

I think it’s ironic that she states the left is “manipulating” Christians— and women in particular, by playing on their empathy. She is adamant that Christians vote, but only for Trump— based on policies that supposedly align more with the Bible/Christian values. Many of her followers suggest that if you don’t vote for Trump, you can’t be a true Christian. That’s actually pretty manipulative. It’s also counter to how Jesus lived is life. He was not about blindly following the orders of others, but living by what God put in his heart. He lived with love, compassion, and empathy— particularly for those that were judged or outcasts in society. She’s casting a lot of judgment, when God is the ultimate judge.
