It is my pleasure to present below a handful of this week’s good news stories from the gender beat. Enjoy!
Take A Bow, WDI USA!
Women’s Declaration USA has been given the credit they deserve for facilitating state bills which could prevent the medicalisation of gender-confused children.
In March 2022, WDI USA’s State Legislative Advocacy (SLA) team, together with president, Kara Dansky, wrote a SAFE Act model bill to counteract the well-intentioned but inappropriate language being used in proposed legislation to ban puberty blocker and cross-sex hormones etc for minors. This document has been sent to many states, one of which was Missouri.
In January 2023, a new Missouri SAFE Act bill, SB 49, was introduced in the Missouri Senate and it is now making its way through the Missouri legislature. It uses language from the WDI USA model. Thanks to help from WDI USA, it seems likely that Missouri children will be saved from so-called ‘gender affirming’ medicalisation.
Furthermore, a journalist at the Columbia Missourian contacted WDI USA for confirmation that they had authored the SAFE Act model bill. The resulting article states, “Other states, including Alabama, Georgia, Iowa, South Carolina and Tennessee, have all introduced similar bills after being sent model legislation by WDI USA.”
Huge congratulations and much thanks to all involved.
Goodbye, Mr Tits
Remember the blimp-boobed Manufacturing Technology teacher at Oakville Trafalgar High School in Ontario? Well, he’s finally been placed ‘on leave’.
The Toronto Sun reports, “It is now official that teacher Kayla Lemieux, known previously as Kerry Lemieux, is no longer teaching at Oakville Trafalgar High School”.
Not On Wor Campus
Remember vociferous student trans activist, Robyn Woof, who helped prevent a film screening of Adult Human Female in Edinburgh? Well, not only has he been charged with assault, he’s also been banned from any further ‘protesting’ on Edinburgh University campus.
According to The Student, “The University of Edinburgh has banned Robyn Woof, Trans and Non-Binary Liberation Officer at Edinburgh University Students’ Association (EUSA), from attending or being within 200 feet of any protest on any subject on the university’s campus.”
Let Women Speak
The film detailing Kellie-Jay Keen’s tour of the USA is now available on YouTube.

Marsh Goes Adults Only
Internet child catcher and self-declared defender of the trans, Jeffrey Marsh, has been forced to make his Patreon account adults only.
And we have this legend, Shumirun Nessa, to thank. Her brilliant videos calling out Marsh’s grooming tactics have gone viral, forcing him to limit him account the over eighteens only.
Thank you for your courage and perseverance, Shumirun!
Paisley Court Out
Trans activist, David Paisley, has dropped his libel case against Ceri Black, requiring no costs and no concessions. This is excellent news for Ceri and her family who’ve had to suffer the trauma of this case hanging over their heads for nigh on two years.
As Ceri writes, “All these allegations have all been dropped - they were all without basis in reality… Truth is a complete defence against libel”.
Sadly, David Paisley is still coming after Our Graham.
This case is vitally important, not only because it is about freedom of speech, but because it is defending the rights of everyone to challenge a dangerous and anti-science ideology which harms women and children.
If you can make a contribution, however small, towards the legal costs and/or share the crowdfunder, it would be very much appreciated. Thank you so much.
Graham is fighting this case for all of us. Let’s make sure we have his back.
Ah yes, Kerry Lemieux... I am still convinced he wants the school to fire him so he can bring a court case.
Until then, I shall continue to think of him as - and to paraphrase an old rather sexist joke - 'a dead heat in an AGP race.'
I have now been able to add to my previous pledge. We’ll get there!
