When did the police force stop dealing with crime and start advocating for gender transition to kids on the streets?

When did kids on the street start confiding their anxiety about their sexuality and/or gender with the police?

I think at least one of these groups is being trolled and I'd like to think its the one in uniform.

How times change. Confiding in teachers was not the done thing when I was 13; the thought of 'sharing secrets' with Mr Higgins was not only uncool but unconscionable!

When did teachers start acting like best mates? It's grooming. End of chat.

More wonderful work JL, thank you. I am getting really worried about the STEM professions and completely support Jo Phoenix and the others who signed that letter. Realising women are a discrete population seems to only have recently occurred to many doing medical and scientific studies and now we're invisible again?

The position of the Lancet Psychiatry of WooWoo and those authors is completely indefensible and the strange silence is notable. Surely it has to be withdrawn? They seem to use 'female' and 'woman' interchangebly without defining their terms. How are there are PhDs in there?! Papers are being published that are not properly peer reviewed. Where are the Royal Colleges on this? The RCOG seem to be relying on facts and science still, but what about the RCPsych?

Who has been writing these policies, and how did no one point out the flaky nonsense this is based on? What are students now being taught in Universities? Data sampling and analysis underpins every area of government policy.

The PSCO is clearly a Stonewall acolyte. That level of vindictiveness is only found in the Most Vulnerable People ™

egads. What the fuck, science? Get a spine.

I just listened to the latest extra mess. Those questions were great. Are they written up anywhere? These questions need to be brought up to everyone who says no debate. We need to make clear that the no debate line is a cheating way to squash thinking.

""I've often gone out to incidents where young people have been getting in trouble for certain things… It turns out some of them are just struggling with their sexuality or gender identity which is reflected in their behaviour”.

Is this a subtle hint that if one brings gender and sexuality into the matter one can avoid due process? After all, not criminals if trans, we've seen it played out in the courts and prison system already.

So if a young person is struggling with their sexuality or identity, they'll just get a nice chat if they commit a crime? Cause that's what it sounds like.
