A far more accurate term for ‘gender counsellors’ is 'cult recruiters'.

Yeah, or the Thought Police. I wonder how they decide if you're a criminal. Can they read minds, too? That'll be the next thing, we'll be had up for thinking the wrong thoughts in our heads!

Look at this virtue-signalling nonsense re. the agp man with the mammoth inflatable breasts he flaunts in the classroom:

"The Halton District School Board is committed to establishing and maintaining a safe, caring, inclusive, equitable and welcoming learning and working environment for all students and staff."

It's obviously not 'safe' for him to be around power tools, nor is it 'caring', 'inclusive', 'equitable', or 'welcoming'. This nonsensical cult policy does not care about the psychological 'well-being' of the students. It 'includes' obvious insanity, he overpowers all sensibility so it's obviously not 'equitable', his fetish is the opposite of 'welcoming' for the captive students making it near impossible for them to 'learn' or to 'work'. His fetishistic presence violates their policy in every which way.

I agree. That man shouldn't be allowed anywhere near kids. He's making them participants in his fetish. Nobody with a genuine dysphoria would behave like that. He's a revolting man and I wouldn't let him within a hundred yards of my children.

Ok, as soon as you said power tools, I just immediately imagined the carnage of a power tool making contact with those enormous fake boobies. It's the stuff of Tom and Jerry!

But on a serious note, I totally agree with you. I'd say it's an abuse of power.

I say his next costume should involve wearing bosoms the size of his entire body not just half, or wearing a pair on his back as well. What an interesting men's sexual rights movement.

If a deluded woman went into her classroom flaunting a mammoth prosthetic penis, outlined in pants so tight the students would be allowed to see the surgically constructed anatomy of said fake phallus, and gargantuan enough to be a danger around power saws, do you think she'd be supported by this school board? Not a hope in hell. It's a Men's Sexual Rights Cult.

Pardon me. Should have said it's a Men's Sexual Demands Cult, Not "Rights'.

Once again the trans rights people demonstrate a fundamental misunderstanding of human rights as evidenced by Paul Roberts asserting that “if someone is denying the human rights of a trans person, that is transphobic.”

In the words of the Encyclopaedia Britannica (see https://www.britannica.com/topic/human-rights/Defining-human-rights), “most assertions of human rights—though arguably not all (freedom from slavery, genocide, or torture are notable exceptions)—are qualified by the limitation that the rights of individuals or groups in particular instances are restricted as much as is necessary to secure the comparable rights of others and the aggregate common interest. Given this limitation, which connects rights to duties, human rights are sometimes designated “prima facie rights,” so that ordinarily it makes little or no sense to think or talk of them in absolutist terms.”

Although there are many circumstances in which the belief that someone is actually the opposite sex to their biological sex may be respected, there comes a point when such a belief infringes upon the rights of others (such as women’s right to exclude biological males from places where they undress or lesbians’ right to define what a lesbian is). This is not a new development, but something that has been present throughout the development of human rights. Without it, there are few human rights and instead mainly just the rights of the group that shouts the loudest (or most successfully resorts to violence).

Can there be a right, such as for parents and others, not to be forced to deny and lie about the sex of their child or other loved one, to that child or to anyone else?

Expand full comment

Articles 8, 9, 10 and 14 of the European Convention on Human Rights (see https://www.echr.coe.int/documents/convention_eng.pdf) and the Human Rights Act 1998, provide such protection.

The main problem isn’t with the law (although there are sensible changes that could be made) at least in England and Wales (Scotland is going down a dangerous path), but rather with the way in which it’s been disregarded by public bodies and companies who’ve been misled by Stonewall’s misrepresentation of what the law says.

Expand full comment

That's very interesting, thanks. Sorry for the delayed reply.

I wonder what it would take to draw attention to these protections and/or to strengthen them?

And if they're in place, how can it be that schools, clinicians, therapists and others are currently openly advised by Stonewall et al to blatantly violate parents' and others rights in forcing them to deny the sex of their loved ones, their pupils, etc? And that parents, teachers etc. are actively punished for declining to lie to their children/pupils/patients?

What a good idea!

Agree that your and the archive here is essential reading - a primer which is an introduction and also deep-dive. Could you ask one of the others who have published? Received my copies of The Annals of the Terf Wars and Other writing by Jane Clare Jones. I realise it's a huge amount of work, but it's a proper academic text book. It's brilliant and includes speeches and 'lightly edited' Twitter texts to fully explore the batshittery context. Seeing it laid out is intimidating and much needed. Moving from ephemeral online blink-and-you-miss-it to hard copy.

Otherwise it's so easy to get bogged down in summaries of summaries or the latest status updates to our knowledge/case review or staging points. The volume of information and evidence is astonishing and your attention to it is much appreciated.

But that's one of the major points about this insanity. The governments want people to engage in magical thinking -- men can be women being the most magical thinking I have ever heard of -- so that when they come for your property, when they insist that animal food is only for the oligarchy and we're supposed to eat bugs, when they have us squabbling with each other to satisfy basic needs, we'll be so batshit crazy we'll agree.

I had my second Twitter account 'locked or suspended' this week. (They clearly haven't decided which. They haven't even told me what my misdemeanour was). I'm puzzled because I don't write anything that can be misconstrued as a personal attack or a call to arms or violence. I was really angry at first but after a while I decided that if they ban me for good, it's their loss, not mine. It's just an anxiety-making machine in any case and the incels who run it can shove their red censoring pencils up their collective arse as far as they will go.

In that case, I reckon we'll be seeing some pencils coming right up through their skulls. At least there are no brains in the way. You're joining the proud lot that have been booted off, if they do boot you off. Even Jennifer Bilek didn't get kicked off for saying that the entire gender industry is a corporate scam. Twitter's rules sure seem all over the place.

“Believing” in same-sex attraction (I prefer using the more accurate work “acknowledging") doesn’t deny 'trans' people’s human rights — it denies them their demand for “transhuman” rights.

So heartened to hear that news that in Japan's Universities there will be ‘gender counsellors’ to persuade students that men can be women.

Just when I think this movement has set feminism back about 70 years, I realise that patriarchy was never this psychologically abusive or reality-denying. Even when we had to have a hot dinner on the table at 5pm and look pretty in a pinny.

Just think what these “women” will be like too — anime-porn (hentai) addled misogynists. Bloody horrifying.

"welcoming learning and working environment for all students and staff…."

Just for one male member of staff, "expressing" how very "female" he is by doing something no woman would do. I guess in the phrase "gender expression", gender means a fetish.

Forcing children to be nonconsenting participants (props) in your delusion and paraphilia is really something.

The reason trans privilege cultists accuse others of being obsessed with genitals is because they'd like to pretend sex isn't observable when someone is wearing underwear (which is most of the time in polite society), as though this is the only way our sexually dimorphic species differs along the lines of sex.

But also, cultists like to air out their child abuse fantasies by claiming sex-segregated sports would somehow lead to genital inspections in toddlers. Projecting just a little too hard there.

Sex denialists, narcissists, fetishists and groomers, nothing more. Backed by the morally bankrupt lining their pockets.

Convoluted language, refusal to acknowledge & address valid concerns: Those of us whose husbands, & their "therapists" said the same BS, recognize the totalitarian indoctrination, only it was about the "right" to be also called Mum and claim to have been female all one's life, pushing actual mothers into silence and trauma. Please see transwidowsvoices.org for our stories.

The diagnosis is not stable, has no basis in valid research, never has. Dysphoria and complex PTSD have only the cross-sex ideation differentiating. The researchers, Blanchard included, thought it was so shocking to desire to "become female" in their sexist world, that they invented a field that will now try to kill childhood itself.

A Columbia University Journalism school debate with august writers and professors had to include a "trans journalist" in a discussion of objectivity in journalism, whether we "still want it." How Jelani Cobb lives with himself, I don't know.

I hope the LGB Alliance shall have space to reveal the captured language, the lack of concern for detransitioners, the utterly depraved attitude towards vulnerable lesbians. I am merely that straight girl who was put through the mill by my former husband and his team of illogical "sexologists," & feel a close bond to same sex attracted women, as they told me, long ago, "We don't think of these guys as women, either. Don't feel that you should have declared yourself a lesbian to 'save your marriage.' "

I've been reading up on Jennifer Bilek's research into Big Pharma and the crazy, crazy money they are raking in from drugging and performing cosmetic surgery on children.

My question is this - how does the medical industry relate to the trans movement itself?

It seems too coincidental to be a case of the 'chicken or the egg'... it's too mutually beneficial to be chance.

Does anyone know how this came to be?

My hunch is that trans rights came out of the medical industry itself, i.e. what better way to make money than for Big Pharma and Friends to invent a supposedly grassroots movement pushing for children and young people to become transsexuals? As JB says, the reason we are doing this now is because we have the pharmacology to do it now?

So it really is very top-heavy, right, it's coming from the billionaires and trickling down to the Black Pampers and Co.?

Yes. It's one and the same, the political wing of the other. Their good luck. Look to how its previous money making schemes hit brick walls like the opioid crisis. How it takes decades to wrangle them into admitting what they've done. They employ very bright people and plan ahead so a while back they developed a way to pivot to 'find new markets' and fight each other to be the first there. Look at tobacco and fossil fuels. I'm sure if you go far enough back there are some business plans or two detailing all this. Same people, same motivations, same greed, same need to buy political influence to get your policies embedded to open up your 'markets'. Look how US health insurance giants are involved.

Various amoral industries piggy-backed on the zeitgeist, desperation and tech social media madness. Many of those Billionaires come from pharma, tech and 'investment vehicles'. Far too many of them are 'trans' and are men who see humanity as some low, slow, stupid mass to be 'improved upon'. The twisting of those within Academia provides the supposed theological underpinning to all of it, so spread that to enough Institutions to provide that net to launch this from. The fact that people are spouting genderology with no clue why shows how successful this postmodernist crap has been. Useful idiots. Dressing right up as left and screaming that anyone gender critical is funded by right wing US evangelicals.

Once things carry their own momentum it's trickling up then down then up. I bet these self-identified 'progressives' protest 'Big Pharma' at the same time as decrying their inability to get 'life saving' hormones and 'affirmative surgery' as a human rights tragedy.

Ah right I get you.

How do these people find each other, is it just like how people in any organisation find each other and make the company work for them and their wallet? Just pure networking?

TRAs who aren't directly employed in Big Pharma, I suppose they benefit by being prioritised for every job in the land? The more indoctrinated the employees, the better? They infect institutions. They become elite in doing so.

Is Big Pharma paying governments to go along with it? How are governments rewarded?

Haaa - yes these "progressives" WOULD protest Big Pharma but would fully get behind the chil-drugging, child-mutilating trans movement.. idiots!

Oh and another thing that makes this movement so good at manipulating people? When people like us explain what's REALLY going on, people think it must be a conspiracy theory!

Yep, strength is weakness, cowardice is bravery, the penised individual who raped you is a woman, and *drum roll"....

.... truth is conspiracy!

These are very strange times!

I think many go along with feeling nice and cuddly and progressive and don't think much more than that. Dentons has been clever and building on justifiable feelings about intolerance of people who are gay (yet they've twisted and are more truly homophobic than many realise). Other things happen to align with their views or jobs so go along with it. Being inclusive and having diversity is good right? Except what do those mean now? Exploring what 'a diverse woman' (a man) means causes discomfort. Some may be promoted over others without specific intent, but pledging allegiance does get you promoted in some places, and the corollary, to ask questions gets you put in the 'anti' or 'right wing' or meany pile.

Governments are rewarded with funding and promises of jobs in poor places. We'll destroy your local economy is a nice threat. Again, too many aren't thinking very deeply about any of this, it brings money, it's 'nice' so what's the issue? And doctors are doing this, so we trust them, right? I'm not sure about it breaking, it might be a series of fevers. UK too :-)

This whole 'movement' is taking the piss. That's it. All the Academic waffle is just more piss-taking. A man getting any breasts of any kind, through hormones, through surgery or online shopping is still just taking the piss and indulging in his shitty fetish of what it gets him off to think 'womanhood' is. He should wear breasts on his legs, back and cranium to be properly, properly 'woman'.
