A jam-packed edition of good news from the gender beat this week. Enjoy! Oh, Canada Ontario’s education minister, Stephen Lecce, has pledged to ensure that ‘parents must be fully involved’ if their child wants to be known by different pronouns at school.
"grossly misconceived, wilfully vexatious, and wretchedly false’ claims - how can you not love Kellie Jay? She's a force to be reckoned with. Looking forward to hearing the apologies 🥤
This might help! Ute Heggen got through and had a significant chat about the data I've collected from 54 trans widows through my survey, 20 Questions to Ask a Trans Widow. It's here, at the 1 hour mark. Thanks to all here and thanks to Rex Landy (a terf trans widow who wanted her name out there!) and KJK.
As put most succinctly by Friedrich Nietzsche, 'Madness is rare in the individual - but with groups, parties, peoples, and ages it is the rule.' Charles Mackay also recognized this in his 'Extraordinary Popular Delusions' [1841] 'Men, it is said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses more slowly, and one by one.' The tide that you strive so eloquently, wittily, bravely and honourably to stem, will not turn with the powerful abruptness with which it arrived. It will turn back more slowly as people recover or gain their senses, not in a mass, but 'one by one' as Mackay suggests.
Thank you, Simon B. Really interesting couple of quotes. And John Boyne with his apology to Glinner, a great example of those "one by one" turnings of tide!
And as always, thank you thank you JL for keeping us all cheered up and encouraged!
Thank you! There are so many wins now, and pretty big ones, as well. The red states really are leading the way with putting an end to this nonsense. Isn't Riley Gaines just fantastic? The way she took down that journalist on X who said she was a rubbish swimmer! Absolute bloody gold. Let's all hold KJK in our hearts and hope that the law in the downunders does the right thing. She's one of the bravest of the brave. And what a little champ is that young lady who took Stonegate on. Well done those lesbians one and all. 💪 Thanks go to the LGB Alliance as well.
This makes my day. Let’s hope that sanity will slowly, but surely come back to this country and other countries that have been kidnapped by the trans ideology.
I'm constantly bemused by the Police's espousal of the trans agenda and their willingness to take sides on this issue: they should be politically neutral. By the twisted logic of their idiotic 'Non-Crime Hate Incidents', I don't see why the phrase 'trans women are women' isn't a hate incident, as it seeks to erase women's identity. Anyway, I've started a petition to try and stop this nonsense, you can sign it here https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/643230
Thanks, that would be great; it seems a good way to send a message to policymakers. and if it did happen, I think the world would be a slightly better place
My mind is blown every time I log on here. A man went to prison for defending his child? Smacked in the gob here! I suppose sense has prevailed but how the hell did that ever happen?
Re the US win, the Konen case against the school, 100K.. Please note UK schools - what happens in the US crosses the pond sooner or later.
And c’mon Kelly J! You absolute champ.
Rock on Nebraska. Can I move there?
Lastly, hoping that Mark Rowley’s critical thinking trickles down quickly through our police force. Maybe fast track it to Hebden Bridge - it’s sorely needed there. That pensioner should receive an apology at the very least.
Thank you JL. I found myself punching the air reading all the good news. Absolutely delighted that the Stonegate Group backed down. Kellie-Jay taking on the Australian lying Liberal politicians is fabulous too as SHE ALWAYS WINS! If you didn't see it, please watch her Terf Talk Tuesday on YouTube from last night. It features a trans window whose own experience dates back to the 90s. She is worth listening to. We need to hear from more of them.
Thanks JL, i was getting all excited when i saw the words ‘victorian liberals’. All sorts of adventures in sepia and some sort of time machine. And Canada making sense!
Thats good JL, all this high definition bullshit leaves nothing for the imagination although actually i’m talking shit because mp3’s are low definition and they’re shit. In conclusion: some things are good when they are a bit crap, some things for proper crap if they’re crap. Not sure how this helps the gender critical camp.
I'm afraid what I know about *wave hand in a general way* technology you can write on the back of a stamp and still have room for a signature. So I have no idea what you're saying. But I probably agree. All I can add to this conversation is that I love film noir.
This has helped lift my cloud a little, though I got a bit confused - with the children going back to school today, I automatically expected the Bad News edition!! 🤣 🤣

And the financial refund!
These trans activist need to be punished.
Let's hope the tide really is turning.

Excellent work, Thomas. Thank you. I'll try and stick the link in a post!
Thanks, that would be great; it seems a good way to send a message to policymakers. and if it did happen, I think the world would be a slightly better place
I'm sure I'll find a way to pop it into this week's round-up!
Signed
well done with the petition :)

Some fantastic good news stories, thanks JL. Really pleased for Robert Hoogland and the precedent it sets.
And KJK, what a woman. Go get em!
Even ‘Titzilla’ is feeling deflated, maybe we are getting somewhere.
I really think we are. John Boyne's apology to Graham had me in tears this week. Feels like a definite change is in the air.
Absolutely - that felt like a real pivotal moment. And well done Boyne for having the guts to admit that he'd got it wrong.
Me too, so pleased for Graham.
Same here - and also due to Graham's response.
Just had a thought JL. We should all get ourselves t shirts with the words ‘ Graham Linehan was right’.
Marvellous idea!
"...and still is" ?
👍
I wasn’t sure whether was or is sounded right but maybe it should be ‘is’.
oops, didn't mean to sound like the grammar police or anyway critical- i was only trying to amplify yourexcellent point, that GL was, and is, right!
😂
No worries, I didn’t take it that way.
I’d buy that !
THAT is how to apologise properly.
Many thanks JL. You've Good News Updated me happy :-)
That's lovely to hear! 😊

I'm very partial to an adventure in sepia, myself! 😄
