ROGD Awareness Day begins Spoke to Saoirse from Genspect and three brave parents working to raise awareness of rapid onset gender dysphoria. Please follow the conversation on Twitter at #ROGDAwarenessDay. Robin Ince IS a pre-op transwoman Hate to break it to you, Mister Science and your Vichy feminist friend, but we men are ALL pre-op transwomen. In fact, ‘pre-op transwomen’ is the longest way of spelling ‘men’ that there is!
The Prue Bray tweet made me want to throw things at a wall. "A bit insensitive"? The PCSO stood on the woman's doorstep and hectored her about her own religious dogma, I'm sorry but I have no other word for it, well apart from "unscientific bullshit". Regardless of whether the PCSO was factually correct (they were NOT), it is not their job to bully and intimidate members of the public on their own doorstep. The victim had committed no crime. The PCSO shouldn't even have been there in the first place 🤬
“Being the victim of traumatic events is not a licence to do what you want or be offensive”.
Except, of course, if you’re a man claiming to be a woman. Then the ‘trauma’ of being in the wrong body is a ‘get out of jail free card’, or in other words, a “licence to do what you want or be offensive.”
Very unfair that upper age limit for the Rose of Tralee contest. The bald woman who works in TikTok and who recently played in the GAA Junior Ladies Football match in Mayo will now be excluded. Perhaps the pro-Trans National Women's Council of Ireland can object and get the age limit lifted?
The ‘Alexandria’ bloke (gawd, I hate when they use women’s names, names that have aggregated womanly cachet over centuries of use) screaming ‘witch witch witch’ and calling women ‘demonic’ and ‘evil’, and now appointed as a ‘learning disabilities officer’ for the SNP, will fit right in with the rest of the nitwits in SNP. Obviously no due diligence, no vetting, no thought, just knee jerk cult response to ‘wokedom’ and ‘trans’. The good people of Scotland have been badly lied to and betrayed, especially women and children.
Got blocked by Nicola Sturgeon...must have been when I called her A Betrayer Of All Women.....but she is, even if she can't admit it. SNP have gone nuts, they're deranged and dangerous. They took on that ghastly bloke KNOWING his violence towards a woman, KNOWING it.....They loathe women, with a huge and deadly loathing. Those who've treated JK with such nastiness have to live with what they've done, but it breaks my heart she's had to endure the hatred and horrific threats she has...Police Scotland, another branch of Stonewall's Noddy Police, should have come down really hard to all those who've threatened her, especially the 'you're next' one. I'm so angry, need to make a cup of tea to calm myself down...
8 months ago I ordered 2 books from www.cambridgescholars.com, both edited by Michele Moore and Heather Brunskell-Evans (eds):
Inventing Transgender Children and Young People
Transgender Children and Young People: Born in Your Own Body
They never arrived and I wasn’t charged. When I sent a follow up email this week, the Cambridge Scholars respondent said there is no trace of my order in the system, despite me receiving an automatic confirmation email back in January.
How is this possible? The Cambridge Scholars respondent has pronouns as part of her email signature. This looks to me like a potential smoking gun.
Is this just me? Are the gender critical books published by Cambridge Scholars at odds with company policy? Is there an internal ideological conflict? Are employees sabotaging orders for gender critical books?
It would be interesting if any insiders can throw any light on this.
Watched your mess ,Graham ,and my heart absolutely breaks to those women. This destructive movement has broken up so many families and damaged so many people. Why on earth are so many people pretending not to notice ? I was at the protest at Holyrood last year ,as you were ,and saw that bullying man with his walker threatening that much smaller woman. I'm not even surprised he subsequently obtained a position with the SNP. They hate women.😭👎😈
Thank goodness for that last tik tok funny! I could swear that was Frankie Boyle!!
This witch whisperer with a position on the NEC actually made me shake with anxiety!! I'm not disabled but who knows what the future holds and I can't believe he's in charge of anything but the paperclips!
Also am I childish for following that guy, tweeting to tell him that I followed him so I could (fkn) unfollow him first and point out that I stand with JKR, before unfollowing him?! Just checking!!
I haven't read it all yet, but this is the opening:
Fifteen years ago, I coined the term autogynephiliafrom Greek roots meaning “love of oneself as a woman”and defined it as a male’s propensity to be eroticallyaroused by the thought or image of himself as a woman(Blanchard, 1989a). My identification of this eroticorientation was not the result of any advance in imagingtechnologies, laboratory assays, or computationally inten-sive statistical procedures. It was the result of a perceptualshift—a shift in the way I saw, heard, and understoodstatements that patients had been making to clinicians fordecades. In this essay, I review the perceptions of earlier1Law and Mental Health Program, Centre for Addiction and MentalHealth—College Street Site, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.2Department of Psychiatry, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario,Canada.3To whom correspondence should be addressed at Law and MentalHealth Program, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health—CollegeStreet Site, 250 College Street, Toronto Ontario M5T 1R8, Canada;e-mail: RayBlanchard@camh.net.clinicians and attempt to show how these led to my ownformulation.
'Blue tick' Ash Sarkar should have ended her tweet just after "don't have anything particularly clearheaded to say," because she then goes on to prove her initial observation by comparing the "threats and intimidation" of 'drag queens' to the tragic and very real plight of Salman Rushdie. Mr. Rushdie, who right now is lying in a hospital bed with an arm rendered useless because of severed nerves, the loss of an eye, and liver damage by stab wounds. Mr. Rushdie who has had millions wishing for his death for decades. Mr. Rushdie who has lived with the threat of violent death for decades. Mr. Rushdie who will now have to contend with a PTSD that will make it damn near impossible for him ever to regain his courageously sought after equilibrium. But hey, wait a minute, let's not forget the poor suffering drag queens who are so bravely fighting for artistic freedom! FFS. Absolutely no sense of proportion. No sense at all. This 'blue ticked' Sarkar is a fool of the first order.
Thanks for the ROGD Awareness Day interview Graham. My child has ROGD. I am watching the most precious person in my world self-destruct and I often feel helpless. Your podcast gave me a moment of sanity in an insane world. Hoping the "trans" crash comes soon!
Whilst I agree that Adamson’s language is threatening and unacceptable, I do wonder about how he easily manipulated he was into gender woo. NOT excusing his views or actions in any way but it seems plain to me that there is some sort level of learning difficulty here?

I nearly choked on my tea when I read that! 😂😂😂

Something for Graham to follow up, if he wishes.

News just in. (checks it's not 1st April before posting)
RECRUITERS in Tayside have defended their decision to appoint a man to be a "Period Dignity officer", saying he "was the strongest candidate."
