Once again the police in my country let women down.

Thanks for trawling through all this muck.

Thanks, Jillian.

Thanks as ever JL. These updates normally make me feel sick and angry. This one is completely chilling. The fact that the C of E, the BMA, lawmakers in California etc are all captured to the point that they are prepared to ignore the mass of evidence which is building up against gender ideology and are happy to put children on the medical gravy train without a moments doubt. These organisations are just the tip of the iceberg, many more, if not most are captured. The task ahead is huge and I can only think that we need something huge to happen, to wake people up from the trance so many appear to be in.

I think this is because the movement is misogyny wrapped up as compassion. The Christian churches, the medical establishment and the profession of law are all pretty misogynistic institutions that actively, if sometimes subtly (and sometimes not), target women. Why would they not make use of a sexually-driven movement that removes our rights, particularly of any opportunity to gather alone and discuss our problems concerning men and male violence, puts males back in the driving seat, takes away any redress, allows active, open and vicious hatred of women, demands we shut up, and yet claims to "be kind"?

Spot on! Women just don’t matter. If something similar was happening to men, the outcry would be deafening and it wouldn’t have lasted five minutes.

Yes. The fact that it doesn't hurt men is a large reason for it's success in my view. Gay men are waking up to the fact that little gay boys like they used to be are being converted to transdom and castrated and that is starting to have an effect, but all those heterosexual men with just a little bit of resentment about the gains women have made over the last hundred years, they will just let it roll on.

However, while not disagreeing with that, most of the people in Starmer's Cabinet that us Terfs are concerned about are women - Rayner, Dodds, Phillipson, Nandy - baffles me!

While I agree with "concerned bloke", I think another problem is that that if you are a woman in a misogynistic institution, you have to prove your loyalty to that cause, and the higher you get the more you have to do it. Hence rather revolting policewomen like Cressida Dick, who have promoted LGBTQ+ misogynistic genderwoo in the police force.

Another problem is gender-captured children in the family, which is really difficult the closer you are to that child.

That’s very true and like everything to do with the ideology, it’s completely baffling.

i don’t think we can underestimate the power of confirmation bias Dusty. These people knew trans identifying people at pivotal times in their lives when the risks of medical transition were unknown or even less documented. Because they love these people rational thought is impossible. Then from 2007 with facebook feeding everyone with confirmation of their beliefs no matter how mental they are, individuals lose the ability to question anything. We see it in the trump fan base. They don’t care he’s a convicted sex offender, or the jusge he appointed found him innocent. Another example of a cult that doesnt want to analyse or question anything in detail. We had a similar thing with Brexit where the algorithm was used to target following voters and remove any doubt. Democracy in action my arse. I think whilst the tech giants have a blank cheque to control the narrative we are all fucked. Funny how many ex politicians havr got on that gravy train. Ex Denmark Pm with trans kid being one of them. Married to Stephen Kinock. Nick Clegg. All these ‘centralistic’ politicians working for the least democratic institution in the world.

Lots to ponder there CB though Wes Streeting shows that you can look at the evidence ( the Cass Review) and change your mind. Hope springs eternal!

‘potential side effects of women taking testosterone can include permanent hair loss, deepening of the voice and the growth of facial and body hair, breast atrophy, vaginal atrophy, infertility, increased aggression or irritability’

These are not ‘ side effects’ they are the desired and devised EFFECTS of testosterone. After all, if you didn’t grow a beard and a ‘deep’ voice, you would presumably be very disappointed, since that is why you are taking this stuff.

As for Welby, he’ll be in the cold circle with Judas, I think.

another thing that pisses me off is that no on seems to be able to connect gender ideology’s passion for ‘gendering’ activity and telling children what a real boy and girl is with the rise in misogyny. (present company excluded of course)

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cne4vw1x83po

Boys are driven to extreme expressions of what it is to be male as they see it to avoid people questioning their sex. But when i was little some boys were gentle, physical weak, artisitic, sporty, tough, but we were all boys.

Now lads play up to avoid being judged by others. The last thing they want is to be labelled a girl by others. I see this every day as a parent. The lads all want to go to the gym and listen to ‘masculine’ music. They are being played. Leave our kids alone you fucking bastards. Leave them alone, get your own fucking hobby. I hate these people.

No mention of gender bullshit in that article as far i can see. Heaven forbid a journalist think outside the box for a minute and see where it took them. oh we mustn’t look under that rock, we mustn’t challenge or examine any of the underlying doctrine that is untouchable. It would be blasphemous to even suggest that gender ideology could be a contributing factor for some boys. Don’t look, don’t think. keep nodding and smiling

Yes, gender is a prison for boys and girls.

This is not just a war on women, it's a war on children and on our very humanity. https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/one-death-is-a-tragedy-but-a-million

Thanks JL, depressing but vital information as usual. I’m actually a regular c of e church goer if you can believe it. My vicar is completely with us on all this shite. I’ll be ringing him later and writing again to the ceo of our academy- our secondary school is c of e. And my MP. The state has no role in promoting belief systems- including my own. gender ideology with the endorsement of institutional religion. Pretty dark that. I can’t help feeling that gender ideology finally explains away the homosexuals for the church. i hope thats not true for Justin. I’ve heard him speak really well on some things. I can’t understand how people fall in and endorse gender ideology with such apparent lack of thought and analysis when so much is a stake for the people drawn to it. Such a void of compassion and dedication to the vulnerable. Right i’m done ranting now. I promised i wouldn’t anymore. Woops

I like to hope Welby is just misguided and misinformed. I think a lot of people in this debate mean well but are woefully ignorant. (Partly a result, I think, of force-teaming the T with the LGB...) Keep up the fight!

Thanks as ever for the horror stories, JL and the examples of captured organisations including the BMA and the CoE!! A mixture of money, misogyny and queer theory/Maoism seem to be behind it all.

The Cass Review has made enormous inroads into so called gender affirming care ( albeit stating in great detail something others had been saying for years). Just shows how much effort is required to start dislodging this madness. Well done the brave women of Brisbane!!

Wes Streeting needs to block that loophole and Susie Green, David Lock and the Fox Killer should be in the dock!

I meant to add that I think that legal challenges are becoming more and more important eg Title IX in the States is currently being saved by the courts effectively!

Completely agree Dusty.

I really hoped we had seen the last of Susie Green but no such luck

She seems to have a sick obsession

with transitioning kids which begs the question of how much choice her son had once she decided he was a girl

She should be in prison for child abuse

Expand full comment

Her poor son had no choice. Transed because he was too effeminate. She should be pilloried and shamed by society instead of celebrated and given positions of power and influence. Ffs, what is wrong with people? They are celebrating homophobic parents.

Oh well, the Church of England didn't study Jean Piaget, the foremost pioneer in child development. I'm sure they have a few other insignificant flaws. Send them this quick study of object permanence, acquired at age 3-4, which completely contradicts the concept of "wrong body since birth."

What you are doing here, in compiling and logging all if this shit is such important journalism. I had no idea that the upper echelons of the BMA are full of trans activists, for example. Important to name and shame them. I wish this Substack could be given a greater platform as it would peak so many people.
