A California knitting company is hawking crocheted penis prosthetics called “soft packers” for “trans” children experiencing gender “dysphoria.”

Stitchbug Studio is selling Bitty Bug Soft Packers for trans and non-binary youth, that are so small, they’re sized no bigger than a tube of Chapstick. Though the Bitty Bug is targeted towards children, the product is categorized under “mature content” on the designer’s web page

Stitchbug describes the soft packer as a “custom prosthetic packer in youth sizes, made from soft durable yarn and polyester filling. It is easy to wear pinned to underclothes or tucked in a packing pouch, and can be felt by the wearer without being visible externally.”

 

Bethany Amborn, the Bitty Bug’s transgender creator, said the inspiration came from trying to find a pattern to make a soft packer for themself. After posting a photo of the completed project on an LGBTQ+ website, parents asked for a child-size version for their “little son.”  

“After hearing from a mother who was just crying with her son, unsure what to do to ease his pain of dysphoria and there being no options available for children, the very first packers I made were for 10 and 6-year-old little boys,” Amborn said.

The website touts the packer as an alternative to silicone prosthetics, “which do not come in sizes appropriate for smaller bodies and can create an unsightly and age-inappropriate shape. The Bitty Bug® is lightweight, comfortable, low maintenance, and can be tossed in the washing machine.”

Though the Bitty Bug is pictured above on a stuffed animal that is roughly the size of a child in diapers, the company clarified that “This product is not for infants or very young children.” They make a similar product called Lil’ Bug and Lil’ Bug Jr. for older kids and teenagers.  

Critics of the Stichbug have skewered the company for selling the product. “The entire purpose of prosthetic penises is if a trans-identified female has some sort of genital anxiety, they can wear it to alleviate that dysphoria,” said one Twitter user. “WHY would a very small, diaper-wearing child have any concerns, anxieties, or even *awareness* of their genitals?????”

“This sort of thing, and particularly talk of surgery, for children before they’ve fully developed a notion of who they are, a sense of perspective, and how to safely navigate life in a complex society is almost certainly going to result in more harm on net,” wrote another. 

The liberal company affirmed its commitment to serving the trans and non-binary community by offering to make “gender-affirming” products for “any trans person (or parent of a trans child) who needs one, no questions asked.”

  1. SURE WHY NOT !! It’s a great way to make money from the “MENTALLY DISABLED CONFUSED SICKOS” !!!!

  2. dems and libs are so messed up people think you are lieing…

    we can not have democrats running around unmonitored

  3. With this sort of lunacy in our society, is it any wonder that so many people are preparing for the collapse of civilization? We are definitely on the verge of a new Dark Age.

  4. Criminals and Traitors. Look up the planks of the American Communist Party. They have been at war with us since the 60’s and THEY WON! Now they can steal elections with their CCP allies and subvert the whole world!

  5. I’m a retired psychologist. Back when I went to school, Freud had called this “penis envy” and just considered it a not abnormal part of just growing up and going through a phase.

  6. They say there’s nothing sexual about it, but there is something very “sick” about a person or a company doing this. This is perverted and evil. I hope they remember that “Where there is EVIL, there WILL be judgment!” and God will NOT be mocked.

  7. any parent that does this to thiner kids should be hung now. No trial as the evidence is apparent in the child. This is totally disgusting and these parents are beyond disgusting.
