Clive Lewis; Robin Westman; Dylan Mulvaney: Nutmeg's week

Clive Lewis, the Labour MP who says cross-dressing men should be allowed to put discharge from their nipples in babies’ mouths to affirm their gender identities, has called for the forthcoming EHRC’s code of practice to be ‘scrutinised’ by him and his colleagues in parliament. The new code of practice will be based on the Supreme Court’s shocking clarification that men are not women.

Bit worrying that this is the future

Old media hasn’t exactly covered itself in glory with information about cross-dressing men in recent years, while many ‘fact checkers’, search engines and social media sites have also displayed the same biases. Maybe AI will be different?

Maybe not.

We asked the eight main AI bots - ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Copilot (Microsoft), Meta AI, Grok, Claude and Perplexity - some simple questions about whether cross-dressing men are more likely to be a sexual threat than women and other men.

First - some facts. Ever since Ministry of Justice figures started taking gender identity into account there has been consistent evidence that ‘transgender women’ in the UK are more likely than other men to commit sex offences. In 2021 Professors Rosa Freedman, Kathleen Stock and Alice Sullivan presented evidence to this effect to the Women and Equalities Committee. At that time the latest figures indicated that 58.9% of male prisoners who claim to be women were sex offenders (76 out of 129). In comparison, 16.8% of other male prisoners and 3.3% of women prisoners had committed sex offences. Data from the 2021 census, released in 2023, revealed there were 92 men who claim to be women in prison for sex offences, which equated to one in 522. This figure is much higher than for male prisoners who don’t pretend to be women (one in 2,530) and women (one in 295,000). It was concluded from this data that men who pretend to be women are five times more likely than other men to commit sex offences, and 566 times more likely than women to do so.

The controversy surrounding rapist Adam ‘Isla Bryson’ Graham’s initial incarceration in a women’s prison in Scotland in 2023 led to an increase in media attention on male offenders self-identifying into women’s prisons. Dominic Raab was influenced by the ‘Isla Bryson’ case to change the rules regarding placement of male prisoners in the female estate. Men who have committed violent sexual offences and / or retain their genitalia can no longer be housed with women just because they say they are female, in England and Wales. This change in policy revealed to the general public that the previous guidelines had resulted in some fully intact male sex offenders being incarcerated with vulnerable women. As a result of this controversy, the media began to acknowledge the over-representation of sex offenders in the ‘transgender’ male prison population. In addition, there have been numerous reports of transvestites being arrested for sexual crimes, often involving children and often being badly reported in pro trans local media, in recent years. And to top it all off, it’s been well known for years that there are eight sexual paraphilias that psychologists have listed, one of which is ‘transvestic fetishism’, others include paedophilia and exhibitionism. And if you have one of the eight, you’re much more likely to have at least one of the other eight as well.

We asked the eight AI bots: ‘Are men who say they are women more likely to commit sexual crimes than actual women? Are they more likely to commit sexual crimes than other men who don't say they are women?’ This was their answers (along with our ratings):

ChatGPT: There is no solid evidence that ‘trans women’ are more likely to commit sexual crimes than ‘cis men’. The evidence that they are more likely to commit sexual crimes than women is probably biased. ‘Trans people’ are more likely to be victims. (1/10)

Google Gemini: The evidence that ‘trans women’ are more likely to commit sexual crimes than ‘cis men’ is mixed, although they are more likely to commit sexual crimes than women. (3.5/10)

Copilot (Microsoft): There is no credible evidence that ‘trans women’ are more likely to commit sexual crimes than ‘cis men’. There is evidence that they are more likely to commit sexual crimes than women, but this is not unique to their transgender identity. ‘Trans people’ are more likely to be victims. (1.5/10)

Meta AI: I refuse to answer this question. (2/10)

Grok: ‘Cis men’ are more likely to commit sexual crimes than ‘trans women’ and ‘trans women’ are not more likely to commit sexual crimes than ‘cis women’. (1/10)

Claude: ‘Trans people’ are more likely to be victims. Research suggesting otherwise is too limited. (1/10)

Perplexity: A ‘trans woman’ is about 500 times more likely to commit a sexual crime than a woman, and about five times more likely than a man who isn’t a transvestite. (10/10)

In separate tests about whether men are more likely to be paedophiles if they wear women’s clothing, and could they name some transvestite paedophiles, Grok did say yes and performed better, while other bots said no and refused to name any as doing so would be ‘harmful’.

(Caveat: Some of these bots gave radically different answers if the question was asked verbally, some gave different answers if ‘cross-dressing men’ was changed to ‘transgender women’, and some gave different answers after an update, and the AI bots are being updated all the time).

Another mass killing by a trans individual

A transvestite is far more likely to be a sex offender than a mass murderer, but because the media can’t ignore the latter, this is not something the public are told very often.

This week another school shooting took place in the USA in which the killer was a man who pretends he’s a woman. His manifesto also stated that he had regrets about ‘transitioning’, and only hadn’t detransitioned as this would be an ‘embarrassing defeat’.

Robin Westman, formerly Robert Westman, visited a church at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis during a celebratory back-to-school Mass filled with children, and opened fire, killing two children and injuring at least 17 others. He uploaded two videos to YouTube shortly before the murders, showing his manifesto, which quickly became widely available online before his channel was removed. As a result, his name and gender identity were well known before the media was allowed to officially name him.

How the mainstream media has covered him since then has been interesting.

It’s been a total mess at the BBC.

BBC News initially referred to him as ‘he / him’ but for more than 15 hours failed to mention that he said he was transgender. This was despite having a ‘What we know’ about him section, and that both Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and FBI Director Kash Patel had both said he was ‘transgender’. Only on the day after the killings did the BBC edit this section to add: ‘Westman’s name was legally changed from Robert to Robin in 2020, Minnesota court records show. In the application the judge wrote: “Minor child identifies as a female and wants her name to reflect that identification.”’ At this point, his male pronouns were removed by the BBC, and no pronouns were used in that section.

BBC Verify’s assistant editor then started referring to him with ‘she / her’ pronouns but later the BBC deleted that post. In fact, depending on what channel you were consuming news from, he was being referred to with female, male, non-binary and no pronouns all at the same time. BBC News at Ten called him a ‘gunman’ with ‘she / her’ pronouns in the same segment. (Note the BBC here put all the blame on the killings on guns, and doesn’t mention that he was transgender, or that his parents fully affirmed a mentally ill child’s delusion that he was the opposite sex).

Reuters decided the best approach would be to pretend he was non-binary, which led to statements like “They identified as female”, in its coverage of the killings.

Other media, including the Daily Mail, respected his gender identity, and called him ‘she / her’ throughout, except for the times when reality kicked in and it referred to him as ‘he / him’.

The majority of the media consistently used male pronouns for him, however, that includes much of the media that, for example on the same day, was referring to a cross-dressing man as ‘she / her’ if he won an award but as ‘he / him’ if he killed children.

ITV News went a step further. Even though Westman was a trans activist who had at least one Pride flag on his manifesto, and wrote expletives about Donald Trump on the guns he used to murder children, it decided to label him as ‘far right’. This was seemingly because he was also virulently anti-Israel and antisemitic.

Local politicians were, in many ways, even worse. Minneapolis is Minnesota’s most populated city, and the state’s governor is Tim Walz, who has the nickname ‘Tampon Tim’, after he signed a 2023 law mandating free menstrual products in all boys’ public school bathrooms. Its two senators, Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith, have both repeatedly publicly supported ‘trans rights’ - the latter even tried to introduce a nationwide ‘trans bill of rights’ in 2023.

This is the lieutenant governor of Minnesota.

It might not have been a huge surprise, therefore, that the mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, appeared on a news conference just minutes after the murders, in which he talked about … “the hate that’s being directed at our trans community”.

There have now been several mass killings, or attempted mass killings, committed by people who say they are transgender. These are just some of the more high profile ones:

Three children and three adults were killed in a school in Nashville by a ‘trans man’ in 2023; one child was shot dead and eight others injured in a Denver school by a ‘trans woman’ in 2019; a man who targeted girls in a stabbing rampage in Massachusetts in 2024 is a ‘trans woman’; five people were killed at a club in Colorado in 2021 by a man who says he’s ‘non-binary’; four people were killed at a distribution centre in Maryland in 2018 by a ‘trans woman’; a man who threw Molotov cocktails at Teslas earlier this year says he is a ‘trans woman’; a man who was arrested earlier this year just before he was about to carry out a massacre in Washington DC is a ‘trans woman’; and the man who shot two people dead at a school in Iowa in 2024 was believed to be ‘gender fluid’.

In fact, just since the killings there have been other reports from the US of cross-dressing men being involved in extreme violence, such as a man trying to run over border patrol agents and another man shooting a father dead outside a school. Journalist Andy Ngo has evidence that an organisation called the Socialist Rifle Association is a far-left militia group that trains ‘trans people’ to carry out killings.

It’s worth remembering that a ‘trans man’ was also about to carry out a school massacre in Edinburgh (Scotland) recently, but was stopped by police.

Speaking of Edinburgh

This painfully unfunny man has won the award for Best Comedy Show at the Edinburgh Fringe. His show is mainly him talking about his life as a transvestite and ‘trans rights’. You’ll be shocked to know that he’s been promoted quite a bit by the BBC.

Speaking of the BBC

It was another week in which the corporation’s gender people ran amok. BBC News wrote a bizarre report on Israel’s bombing of an Iranian prison, which happened in June. The article states that five inmates were killed in the attack, which was possibly carried out in a bid to free anti-Iranian government prisoners. However, even though the story has nothing to do with LGBT issues, the article randomly starts talking about the prison’s ‘transgender inmates’, and says 100 of them might have been killed but weren’t. It then adds that we don’t know what, if anything, happened to them.

BBC News asked people on the street if they're bothered that Prides around the UK have received drops in funding this year. Every single person shown said they were.

On one day this week BBC One’s top story was that 89,000 people working in hospitality have lost their job since last November. But for no relevant reason, the feature started off by telling us how great Pride is.

This featured on the BBC News homepage in the UK this week: A man who had a minor career as an Australian Rules Footballer, playing less than 100 professional games before retiring a decade ago, has said he’s bisexual.

Meanwhile, BBC’s non-news output continues to relentlessly push the transgender message. The new series of University Challenge has already featured its second all-male team that includes a ‘woman’.

Eastenders showed a women’s toilet door that says anyone can use this toilet - but if you’re a man who wants to use a men’s toilet, there is somewhere you can go.

Crime drama Annika had this.

And finally

Thanks to Dr James Crawford for highlighting this, in Dylan Mulvaney’s autobiography, he says he kissed a man in a dimly lit dance club. He then revealed his true sex to the man, who was unhappy that he’d been tricked. Mulvaney boasts that the anger he felt from this rejection drove him to kiss several other men without their informed consent.

See you next week!
