My name is Ryan Woods. I’m known as the drag persona Lady Maga USA. I have proudly joined the Gays Against Groomers movement. They encouraged me to testify in support of legislation in Utah meant to protect innocent children from drugs and mutilation.
Senator Michael Kennedy asked me to join his team of presenters for Senate Bill 16, which passed. I’m so honored that Gays Against Groomers gave me the courage to be a part of this victory for children.
I was selected to testify because of my unique life story. I’m a different sort of chap—a man who loves wigs, makeup, and costumes. The modern “LGBTQIA” movement would require that I identify as “non-binary” or “queer” instead of the biological gay man that I am. They would also expect me to support trans procedures on children.
Unfortunately, after my speech was over, I was mobbed at the Utah State Capitol by “LGBTQIA” protestors and had to be escorted to my car by police. They misunderstand the mission of Gays Against Groomers. We don’t hate them. We simply care about kids.
This was my full written testimony:
Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s an honor to be here. My name is Ryan Woods. I’m a drag artist known as Lady Maga USA. I proudly represent Gays Against Groomers, a national coalition of people who fight the radical “trans children” agenda.
Ever since early childhood, I have loved “girl things” such as makeup, dresses, Barbies and sparkles. I was a fabulous little boy and frankly, today I’m a fabulous man. I’m here to stand up for little boys like I was who are being groomed, manipulated, drugged, chemically castrated, and mutilated.
An advertisement for Lunesta sleep medication is required by law to include a lengthy list of side effects. Yet predatory organizations such as Planned Parenthood put out cute cartoons aimed at children—touting puberty blockers—without mentioning the terrifying consequences of these dangerous drugs. They don’t want the public to know about the side effects of these drugs such as cancer risks, decreased bone density, potential infertility, and mental turmoil. They falsely claim that puberty blockers are “reversible.” This is demonstrably and scientifically false.
Female Genital Mutilation is rampant is dogmatic Islamic countries, such as Somalia. This procedure removes a girl’s sex organs so that she can never experience sexual sensations.
A side effect of many “gender affirming care” procedures is reduced sexual sensations, and potentially losing the ability to ever have an orgasm. Are American “doctors” not just as bad as those performing female genital mutilation on little girls?
The “trans kids” movement isn’t about compassion, it’s about money and power. The push for “gender-affirming care” has become a billion dollar pharmaceutical scam. Unscrupulous politicians are using vulnerable children as pawns to appear as though they’re “compassionate.”
I’m so grateful that no one ever groomed me or convinced me that my beautiful, natural, perfect body was somehow “wrong.” I have over 80 thousand followers across social media and I will use my platforms to fight for children today who are just like I was as a child.
If we analyze the history of humanity, for example the Native Americans or even cave men times—it’s preposterous to imagine a child “naturally” wishing to mutilate their own body. No girl would ever consider cutting off her own breasts without being groomed or socially conditioned to hate them.
Tragically, many young girls who wish to remove their breasts were sexually abused and they believe their breasts could attract further abuse.
For young girls, the trans movement is based in blatant sexism. Telling a girl that she’s really a boy because she’s tough, athletic, and non-traditionally feminine is sexist. What happened to girl power? Where are the feminists? Why can’t a girl be different without identifying as a man?
Today we’ve heard from many parents who believe their child is trans, some as young as three years old. They have stated that they knew their boy was a “girl” because he loves pink, dolls, and dresses. Clothing, toys, colors and interests do not define gender or sex. There are two genders.
Those pushing drugs and mutilation on children often tout “parental rights” as their primary argument. This is gaslighting. In Texas, Jeff Younger faces losing custody of his child because he doesn’t want his boy to be chemically castrated. They only support “parental rights” when it fits their agenda.
Can a parent tattoo their child? Can they give them cigarettes and alcohol? Can they take them to a pornographic theater? Can they allow them to drive? Can they pierce their tongue?
Parental rights end where the rights of a child begin.
Drug-and-surgery pushers also emotionally blackmail their opponents with the “affirming care or suicide” argument, falsely claiming that if a child doesn’t receive puberty blockers or surgery they’ll kill themselves. They omit the fact that threatening suicide is a common way that young people manipulate parents into getting what they want, as well as the fact that therapy, love, and addressing their gender dysphoria would save their lives more effectively than life-altering drugs or medical procedures.
Do they ever discuss the suicidal tendencies of young people who regret mutilating their bodies, such as Chloe Cole, an 18-year-old girl who was groomed into cutting off her breasts as a young teen?
She deals with horrifying medical complications to this day and does not know if she will be able to have children.
The left uses flowery euphemisms such as “gender affirming care” to mask the harsh realities of what’s really being done to children.
As a theatrical, flamboyant, artistic, colorful and gay man—I believe that any child should be allowed to express themselves and enjoy their lives. If a boy loves dolls—who cares! If a girl hates pink—who cares! It’s entirely possible to allow children to be who they are without grooming them into hating their gender or their bodies.
Again, my name is Ryan Woods and I represent Gays Against Groomers.
Thank you for the honor of speaking today.
God Bless America.
