A Week in the War on Women: Monday 8th April - Sunday 14th April
Monday 8th April - Leave Them Kids Alone
THE TELEGRAPH: School children in Scotland are permitted to ‘change gender’ with no lower age limit placed on social transition.
There is ever-increasing evidence that allowing children to socially transition in school is psychologically harmful and can lead them down a path to medicalisation. Consequently, official UK government guidance recommends against it and ensures that parents are involved in any decision-making.
However, the policy in Scotland is quite different and guidance published under Nicola Sturgeon’s government in 2021 still remains in place.
In February 2022 The interim Cass Review findings were published, warning that allowing pupils to use the names and pronouns of the opposite sex can have a ‘significant’ impact on their ‘psychological functioning’ and stating unequivocally that the social transition of school children is ‘not a neutral act’. Despite this, and despite officials meeting with Dr Cass, the Scottish Government would not commit to acting on the Cass Review’s findings, repeatedly emphasising that it relates only to England.
Scotland retains its schools guidance which states that teachers should affirm a pupil’s ‘gender identity’ and allow a change of name and pronouns without question. Furthermore, it approves the use of breast binders, claiming they can have a “Positive impact on a young person’s mental health” despite the many well-documented health risks (eg respiratory problems, rib fracture, muscle wasting, light-headedness, skin infections, reduced lung function, digestive issues etc).
The 70-page document also claims that it is possible for pupils to ‘come out’ as trans at any age and, with no lower age limit, it means that even primary school pupils as young as four could be allowed to be treated as the opposite sex. And they could do it without the consent of their parents; the guidance instructs teachers that pupils’ wishes should be respected if they do not want their parents to be informed of their gender ‘transition’.
Marion Calder, a director at For Women Scotland, told the paper, “To stick with this guidance despite an independent review warning social transition is dangerous would be nothing less than betrayal of vulnerable children. The Scottish Government has a choice. It can either listen to an eminent paediatrician, who has spent more than three years carefully considering the evidence, or a group of discredited and ideological activists who helped it draw up these reckless rules”.
Tuesday 9th April - A Get Out Of Jail Free Card
THE DAILY MAIL: A trans-identified male who made death threats against prominent gender critical women has escaped a custodial sentence.
We have reported on Layla Le Fey in the past. He is a 44-year-old trans-identified male formerly known as Adam Hodgson and Marcus Smith and he has a lengthy arrest record. According to the Daily Mail, Le Fey has previous convictions for over 50 offences, including three for brandishing a bladed article in public.
In February 2020 Le Fey admitted common assault and possession of an offensive weapon after he threatened a convenience store employee with a claw hammer while trying to steal wine from a Brighton shop.
He originally received a custodial sentence but this was overturned due to confusion around his trans status. He was unable to produce a gender recognition certificate to prove that he has undergone sex reassignment surgery and court staff, quite rightly, refused to carry out a genital inspection. Consequently, Judge Stephen Mooney gave Le Fey a six month suspended sentence, saying it would be unfair to incarcerate him in the male estate.
In June 2023 Le Fey was arrested after threatening leading gender critical women with extreme violence.
Commenting on social media, Le Fey told Helen Joyce, “God how I would love to just rip your eyes out, chop your hands off, and carve your face up really badly”.
He also threatened Kellie-Jay Keen (aka Posie Parker) with extreme violence.
One post said that he would be happy to “Brutally and horrifically kill” her.
Another post expressed a desire to set fire to Kellie-Jay’s house with her inside.
When Le Fey was arrested over these social media threats, Sussex Police described him as a woman and used female pronouns with which to refer to him. “A 43-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of making threats to cause criminal damage and malicious communications”, they said. “She remains in custody at this time.”
Similarly, The Argus, the area’s local paper, reported this story describing Le Fey as a woman and referring to him with female pronouns.
Appearing in court this week, Le Fey pleaded guilty to four offences under the Communications Act, including threats of arson. Yet again, he escaped a custodial sentence and walked free from court. Brighton magistrates handed down a 20 week suspended sentence.
In a victim statement, Kellie-Jay Keen said she wanted to make clear the threats against her were made by a man. “Terrorising women into silence was the intent of this man… This is what happens when women speak up.”

REDUXX: A trans-identified male and self-styled role model for ‘trans kids’ is a ‘minor attracted person’ and campaigns to legalise and de-stigmatise paedophilia. (NOTE: The man has used a copyright claim to remove our photos of him but they can still be seen if you follow the above link)
Cali Miller is a trans-identified male in his late 30s who calls himself Katie Cruz. In a 2016 blog post he wrote about being transgender.
In February 2022 Miller attended a rally at the Indiana Statehouse. The event, ‘Rally for Hoosier Youth’, was a protest against House Bill 1041, which protects single-sex division in girls’ sports. In a blog post concerning this rally, Miller wrote “We’re the elders now. It’s our job to stand up for the next generation of trans kids. We’re the role models, and it’s up to us to fight to protect them and to fight for their future, and equal rights. And that’s what we’ll do. #TransRightsAreHumanRights.”
Miller should not be allowed anywhere near children. He is a self-confessed ‘minor attracted person’ (MAP), a term used by paedophiles in an attempt to normalise being sexually attracted to children. Miller is not only involved with an activist group called B4U-ACT which campaigns to have paedophilia recognized as a sexual orientation, he operates a ‘MAP Merch Shop’ which sells numerous items featuring pro-paedophilia symbols and slogans.
On Patreon, Miller has said that his ‘age of attraction’ is between 9 and 13 years old and he also claimed to identify as having a ‘trans age’ of between ‘13 and 17ish’. In a blog post written in 2019, Miller described being “Hopelessly in love with little girls” and said that he has “Radical ideas of legalizing relationships between adults and tween girls.” He stated, “I’ve known for a long time that I was a girl-lover. I’ve always found young girls to be desirable”.
Wednesday 10th April - The Clocks Are Striking 13 In Sydney
THE SPECTATOR: In Australia, a trans-identified male is suing a female-only social media app and its CEO, claiming that he is being unlawfully discriminated against.
We have written previously about the landmark Tickle v Giggle case which began over two years ago and involves an entitled male demanding access to a women-only space.
Feminist and entrepreneur, Sall Grover, founded the women-only social media site, Giggle, in 2020. She anticipated a safe, female-only space in which women could meet, talk, network, form friendships, arrange social gatherings and holidays and look for flatmates etc and where lesbians could find romantic partners. Thousands of women from 88 different countries signed up and, by September 2021, the site had over 20,000 users hoping to enjoy the sanctity offered by a female-only online space.
To ensure that the site was female-only, Giggle required a profile photograph and used AI facial recognition software as well as screening by eye to prevent males from joining.
In January 2022, both Sall Grover and the Giggle app were reported to the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) by a trans-identified male, Roxanne Tickle, and accused of ‘gender identity discrimination’. Tickle had joined the Giggle app and, quite rightly, was later removed from the site.
Tickle, who also uses the name ‘Roxy’, writes a blog called The Roxy Epoch and used to operate a Twitter account of the same name. He made clear that, despite knowing the site was only for females, he signed up to Giggle and tried to evade the restrictions.
Speaking on the TERF Talk podcast, Sall Grover described how, after being removed from the Giggle app, Tickle found her private mobile phone number and texted her frequently, demanding a conversation. He then proceeded to inundate her with phone calls. She did not respond.
In January 2022 Tickle went to the AHRC alleging gender identity discrimination. Grover was told that, to rectify the situation, trans-identified males must be allowed to join Giggle and that women using the app must be ‘moderated’ (ie censored) when discussing gender issues. Furthermore, Grover was told that she and her company must submit to ‘education’ re gender identity. Of course, she refused those terms.
Several weeks later, Sall Grover was notified that Tickle intended legal action and had escalated his complaint to the federal court.
Unsurprisingly, Tickle has form re the trampling of women’s boundaries. In October 2020 he was in the news for joining a women’s hockey team and he has actively campaigned for trans-identified males to be included in women’s sports.
This week the case of Tickle v Giggle has been heard in Sydney’s federal court. Tickle claims that he was discriminated against when he was removed from the Giggle app and when Giggle and Sall Grover did not respond to his demand for access and reinstatement to the site. Furthermore, he is also claiming that Sall Grover’s comments about him in interviews and on social media were “Distressing, demoralising, embarrassing, draining and hurtful” and led to him receiving ‘enormous’ online hate.
He is seeking damages and aggravated damages amounting to $200,000.
The crux of this landmark case rests on the definition of the word ‘woman’. Tickle's lawyer, Georgina Costello, claimed in court that “The evidence will show that Ms Tickle is a woman” because he ‘presents as’ and ‘perceives’ himself to be one. Apparently, his clothes, the changes made to official his documentation and the fact that he barges his way into a women’s spaces have somehow changed Tickle’s sex. Costello went on to tell the court that “Biology is not a complete answer to the question ‘What is sex?’”
A judgement in this case is expected within three to six months.
Interviewed by radio station 882 6PR a few years ago, Sall Grover pointed out, “The anger that a lot of these males have of not being allowed to be on a female app proves the need for it and why we don’t want them there.” She is now determined that her one-year old daughter will not “Grow up in a world in which she will have no rights”.
Thursday 11th April - This Never Happens #2
REDUXX: A trans-identified male nurse has been sentenced to 20 years in prison following the brutal murder of an elderly man in his care.
In October last year, a 24-year-old trans-identified male admitted to killing his 82-year-old patient at the victim’s home in the Braunau area of Austria. Due to Austria’s privacy laws, neither the victim nor the perpetrator can be named. It has, however, been revealed that the nurse used the name ‘Paul’ for professional purposes.
Paul had been providing on-call care to the bed-ridden elderly man at his home on 5th October 2023. Using knives he took from the kitchen, Paul stabbed his patient repeatedly in the chest and head. He then telephoned the victim’s stepdaughter and she immediately alerted the police. The victim died of his injuries at the scene.
When arrested, Paul demonstrated extreme aggression and ‘massive psychological abnormalities’ so was taken to the psychiatric unit of a nearby hospital. During a police interrogation, Paul confessed to the brutal murder, claiming the victim had teased him about his ‘gender identity’.
ORF, Austria's public broadcaster, reported this crime by referring to Paul with female pronouns. Although the article did make a brief mention of his transgender identity, it described him throughout as ‘a woman’.
Similarly, Austrian daily newspaper, Der Standard, referred to Paul as ‘a woman’ or ‘female’ throughout its coverage, failing to mention his true sex and trans status.
In court, Paul was referred to with female pronouns and described as ‘a woman’ by witnesses and defence counsel.
He has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Friday 12th April - This Never Happens #3
THE DAILY MAIL: A man has been arrested after exposing himself in a Planet Fitness women’s locker room, apparently claiming to be transgender.
We have reported on Planet Fitness and its locker room policy several times in the past. The gym chain giant allows males to use the female facilities if they ‘identify’ as women and, although this policy has repeatedly proved to endanger women, Planet Fitness will only double down on its ‘judgement free zone’ mantra.
In September last year, 25-year-old JaKorbie Dixon was arrested on suspicion of exposing himself to a 15-year-old girl in the locker room of a Planet Fitness gym in Monroe, Georgia. The teenager was in the shower section of the gym’s female changing room when a male pulled back the curtain and stood right in front of her, completely naked. When the girl’s mother went to the gym to speak to the manager the following day, she was told that staff were aware of other complaints about this man but maintained he had a right to use the female facilities.
The woman then filed a police report and Dixon was arrested. Officers told the family that Dixon is alleged to have exposed himself to a 19-year-old female gym employee in the women’s locker room on two separate occasions, during one of which, ‘his penis was fully erect’. Police charged Dixon with indecent exposure for both incidents.
Only a few weeks ago, Planet Fitness revoked a woman’s gym membership after she challenged a man shaving in the female changing room.
Patricia Silva encountered a man shaving at a sink in the women’s locker room at her local branch of Planet Fitness in Fairbanks, Alaska. She described the incident in a video which she posted online.
The following day, Patricia’s Planet Fitness membership was revoked. Chief corporate affairs officer, McCall Gosselin, gave a statement to Fox News Digital: “As the home of the Judgement Free Zone, Planet Fitness is committed to creating an inclusive environment. Our gender identity non-discrimination policy, states that members and guests may use the gym facilities that best align with their sincere, self-reported gender identity”.
This week The Daily Mail has reported on a man apparently trying to take advantage of the Planet Fitness ‘inclusivity’ policy to expose himself in the female changing area.
Christopher Allan Miller is a 38-year-old bearded man. This week he was arrested after allegedly exposing himself in the women’s locker room at the Planet Fitness gym in Gastonia, North Carolina. Although his Planet Fitness membership lists him as male, female gym-goers say that he claimed to be a woman in order to access their facilities.
It is alleged that Miller was completely naked in the female changing area and even asked one woman to rub lotion on his skin and shower with him.
A woman using the changing room called the 911 emergency services phone number to report that a male was exposing himself in the women’s locker room. “It's a man but he says he identifies as a woman, and he won't leave the restroom”, the women told the 911 dispatcher. “But he is just walking around showing us his and he won't leave”.
The 911 dispatcher asked her “What's he wearing” and the anxious customer replied “Nothing. Literally nothing”.
Miller was arrested for a felony charge of indecent exposure and booked into the Gaston County Jail with his bond set for $25,000.
Also Today - Under His Eye Uber Alles
EMMA: The German parliament has passed self ID legislation which will allow anyone over 18 to merely self declare themselves a different sex or none at all.
Previously in Germany a legal change of sex required a medical certificate and approval from a family court. Under the new legislation passed this week, anyone over the age of 18 will be able to legally change their sex or choose a third ‘diverse’ gender option with just a quick visit to a registry office. People can also request that their ‘gender’ is not registered at all.
Minors aged between 14 - 18 can change their legal sex with the consent of parents or legal guardians. Should a parent or guardian refuse, a family court can intervene and consent to the child’s demands regardless of the parents’ wishes. Even children under 14 years of age can ‘change sex’ if their parents or guardians make the required declaration on their behalf. (What a gift for homophobic parents of gender non-conforming kids.)
The new law will also introduce hefty fines for disclosing someone’s true sex or previous name without their consent, except in very particular circumstances. Those disclosing the true sex of someone trans-identified without permission could face a fine of up to €10,000.
Amid the self-aggrandising cheering in the Bundestag as this law was passed this, politician, BWS Chair, Sahra Wagenknecht, described it as a disaster. “Your law makes parents and children guinea pigs of an ideology from which only the pharmaceutical industry benefits”, she said. “Your law is hostile to women.”
Saturday 13th April - This Never Happens #4
WAUKESHA FREEMAN: A trans-identified male recidivist sex offender has been convicted of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl with learning difficulties.
Adam Hetke is a 35-year-old male from Waukesha, Wisconsin. He ‘identifies as a woman’ and calls himself ‘Sabrina’ though, in the past, has also been known as ‘Morrigan’. Hetke is a convicted sex offender who was jailed in 2007 for second degree sexual assault against a female victim. He was released in 2016 and “Considered a serious offender with a high probability to re-offend”.
In 2019 he was convicted of 4th degree sexual assault against a female victim and found himself behind bars again. According to Waukesha Police Department, he was released from prison in 2020 and by then was ‘identifying as transgender’.
This week Hetke has been convicted of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl who is described as having cognitive disabilities. He will be sentenced in June. The Waukesha County Circuit Court heard that Hetke met the victim at a gas station in July 2021 and went to her home nearby on the premise of watching a film with her. He sexually assaulted the teen while threatening her with a knife. The girl said that Hetke told her he was a vampire and that he would bite her if she didn’t do what he wanted.
Hetke also is facing charges in an open homicide case in Milwaukee. It is alleged that he was involved in strangling a man to death in April 2021. One witness to the event described being frightened of Hetke who had claimed that he could inject people’s bodies with demons. The case is to due to go to trial in June.
Sunday 14th April - What Fresh Hell Is This?
THE DAILY MAIL: Susie Green, former CEO of Mermaids, is planning to set up a so-called ‘helpline’ for gender-distressed children.
Susie Green was the Chair of Mermaids from 2011 until 2015 and then the CEO of Mermaids from 2016 until her sudden departure in November 2022. She then went on to work as a project director for GenderGP, an offshore private gender clinic of very dubious reputation which has been caught out supplying hormones to minors without their parents’ knowledge or consent.
Green famously took her young son to Thailand to undergo so-called ‘sex reassignment surgery’ on his sixteenth birthday. She would later give a TED Talk in which she openly admitted that having a feminine little boy who liked playing with ‘girls’ toys’ made her husband extremely uncomfortable.
There is also video footage of Green laughing about the fact that the puberty blockers taken by her son in childhood meant there ‘wasn’t much to work with’ when he underwent genital surgery having just turned sixteen year of age.
Last year, we reported on the all-pervading and pernicious influence Green had demanded and been given on the development and implementation of NHS treatment policies for trans-identified children.
This week The Daily Mail reported that Green - a former IT manager who has no medical training or qualification - is planning to set up a new phone line to ‘advise’ vulnerable youngsters struggling with gender issues.
Writing in her blog on Medium, Green confirmed that the she is planning to set up a trans ‘helpline’. She will not be seeking to register this organisation as a charity, she said, because “It would sabotaged by those seeking to block progress in this area”. In other words, this ‘helpline’ will not have to operate within the regulations and standards of care to which properly registered charities are expected to adhere.
Green regurgitated the dangerous and much debunked suicide myth with hyperbole and scare-mongering about ‘an unprecedented number of deaths’ among gender distressed youngsters seeking NHS care.
She also wrote of “Choosing to access private services” being “A fundamental right” and opined about supposed “Attacks against trans young people’s autonomy”. She went on, “I believe there is a need for a service that will offer nonjudgmental emotional support to those who so desperately need it and can signpost to a multitude of available options… As soon as we can, we will open our lines.”
See you next week.
I would suggest that social transition at school is not just harmful for the child involved who is set on the path to medicalisation. It’s also psychologically harmful for all the other children. They are told to distrust the evidence of their own eyes, to set aside their developing judgement, to only accept what the adults are telling them is real… but the adults are lying, the adults are coercing the children into lying. Then there are the subliminal messages to girls which tell them that their feelings of embarrassment or instincts for safety don’t matter, only the feelings of special males matter. No wonder the cosseted and pampered ones grow up to be narcissists, the whole world is expected to pander to their every whim. I can’t bloody wait for this crap ideology to shrivel up and crawl back into the cesspit it came from.
Thanks as ever JL. We’ll defeat this garbage even if it’s the last thing we do.
I just don’t buy Susie Greens narrative that it is all her ex-husband’s fault. Although he very sensibly keeps a low profile, he seems to have a thriving relationship with his other children.
It seems extreme reaction to your husband expressing concerns that one of his sons is playing with his sister’s toys is to take the child to Thailand and cut his dick off, instead of saying for example ‘ oh come on, it’s not the end of the world, he’ll grow out of it’, or indeed just ‘so?’.
