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.

Thank you, TT! And I agree. We should not be lying to children - or teaching them to lie - when it is going to erase all of the safeguarding behaviour we try to put in place to keep them safe. "Don't talk to strange men" doesn't really work when in the same breath we're telling them that we can't define what a man is!

Well said, TT

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?’.

Congratulations JL, it's people like you, James Dreyfus, and of course the wonderful JKR, who have exposed and continue to expose this insane ideology - vindicated in part now by the Cass report. Loads of other people involved too - but not many from "showbiz". There's still a lot of work to do though - shut down the ghastly Susie Green maybe..

For me, this week's lowest point amongst the sludge is the German govt's decision to allow self-id. This is truly insane. My son lives in Hamburg and he knows NOBODY who agrees with this plainly insensible decision, even among the most liberal. It will not end well. That government is turning Germany into a basket case.

Yet another parade of absolute freakery. I think JK Rowling copied your style in her 1 April tweets series, JL. So much peaking power in displaying these freaks one after the other, like a neverending horror show. A peaking parade of freakery. Could be a new literary genre?

This movement has absolutely no redeeming features at all and I would really like to shake some sense into every single person who supports it ,especially those with power like policy makers, politicians ,lawmakers ,judges and many more.!! There's a reckoning coming and I hope I live long enough to see it !! Thanks ,JL ,for all the work you do to expose these monstrous people.👍👏❤️

Just recently someone/something tried to remind everyone that there is violence coming from both sides. Could someone, in the interest of fairness, provide examples of the violence coming from the GC side. Come on. I'll wait.

Well as someone who was at Edinburgh LWS I can confirm where the harassment, vilification, abuse and outrageous banners were coming from. I was a few feet away from them!

The problem here is that according to the "queer" side, words that they don't like are "literal violence".

Expand full comment

Am I the only one tired of equating "literal violence" to language? These cowards find solace in an anonymous crowd where they practice physical violence with impunity and then get unset if someone misgenders them.

Indeed: a good friend of mine recently sent a text to me with misinformed words about "fundamentalism on both sides". This kind of lazy thinking sometimes makes me almost as angry as the harm to women and children makes me. I think really it's a defence mechanism - "there are problems with 'both sides', so I don't have to get involved or commit to a position".

After watching the Arty Morty debate yesterday I was upbeat in believing that the tide had inexorably turned in favour of logic, common sense and undeniable facts. However, this weeks litany of stories from around the world of how dangerous, narcissistic individuals still being indulged, to the obvious peril of others has taken the wind out of my optimistic sails. Thanks, JL, but I'll give this week a FFFFS!

Thanks as ever for your gruelling work bringing us the horror stories, JL but this week I think people should not be disheartened by them.

Maya Forstater's case and subsequent cases established our civil right to state our gender critical beliefs.

After heroes like you, Glinner, Kellie-Jay, Sue Evans, David Bell, Stephanie Davies-Arai and many more have been calling the truth out for years, the combination of the WPATH Files and the Cass Review must surely drive the final nails into the coffin of so called gender affirming care.

It seems to me that this leaves the trans identifying men ( formerly known as transvestites) devoid (soon we hope) of the 'trans children' ( who don't exist of course) that they wanted to affirm their position. They are now left all on their own it seems to me supporting what? Supporting these dangerous men you list.

Will cross post tonight.

Thanks again

Dusty

thanks JL, i’m looking forwards to it, i’m staying with one of my oldest friends and his lovely family and than after i’m meeting all my friends who went on to exciting lives in the smoke for some beers, although i suspect i’ll just want to pass out on a park bench somewhere. It will be a laugh

ALL these people should be locked up, for a very long time. Mr. Fey Fairy, the total nutter first to be mentioned, should be locked away in a secure hospital, like Broadmoor, for the rest of his unnatural natural life. He is a psychopath. ALL those complicit in aiding and abetting these people to dodge jail sentences, yes, Weird Judges, I mean YOU, should be locked up too, preferably in the same cells are these nutters. "Lizzie, you CANNOT talk like this!" Yes, I can, as I'm Transphobic, Idiotphobic and at the end of my tether with this utter nonsense, which is so depraved, deviant and sick. Green is on video LAUGHING at the fact her son's private parts were so tiny, when SHE had caused this, robbing him of his rightful puberty, putting him on those evil drugs, knowing they'd have this effect, then LAUGHED about him. The world has gone bat-shit crazy and I refuse to go down with it....It's only a matter of time before The FeyFairyOne murders a woman, I fear...and some NitWitJudge will say 'poor little fairywairy woman, SHE couldn't help it! She must be sent to a women's prison for ooooh....at least a week!" Not Jewish, but OY VEY!!!

Why is anybody pandering to these delusional idiots?

How can anyone justify encouraging mentally ill people to mutilate and medicate themselves, the body is more than raiment.

How many millions are the rich idiotic men pumping into AI to solve how to change every cell in your body and rearrange the flesh to become a woman only to be told "I can't let you do that Dave"

There is no such thing as trans and the sooner this is accepted the better.

That appalling Susie Green ought to be jailed for child abuse.

The more I see of that woman I wonder if all her sons belief he was a girl was solely down to her gaslighting

Expand full comment

I'd say the likelihood of that is pretty strong, given her assertion that her "feminine" fourth son was "probably gay", and the attitude of her "homophobic" husband. Plus her crusading transactivist zeal in promoting Mermaids, as its CEO and self-appointed advisor to the Tavistock GIDS -- with no paediatric training of any description -- as an ex-IT manager.

Expand full comment

It seems that she craves attention and sees transitioning children as a way to get it. She needs to be sectioned before she does any more harm.

Expand full comment

Sadly yes. "Munchausens by proxy" is a recognised psychiatric condition for narcissistic parents who exploit their children with invented (or physically inflicted) medical conditions to get the attention they crave. Her ability to inflict damage has simply shifted from transactivism at Mermaids to the infamous Webberleys' GenderGP.

I just don’t get why these men are consistently referred to as women by the police and the courts. Some police forces, I know, are captured, but these are institutions where truth matters 🤷‍♀️🤬

Unfortunately I'm currently in hospital which has given me a chance to see how woke the NHS really is. Was given a questionnaire which only gave me the option to tick the category-woman including transwoman. No option whatsoever for biological women.
