I am terribly amused by the idea of straight guys pretending to be gay guys, cruising grindr to find the straight girls pretending to be gay guys, so they can have sex with them. How does that even work? I'm perplexed by the level of pretense involved. How far do these straight guys have to go in pretending they're gay so the "trans men" don't catch on. Do the "trans men" become suspicious when no cultural markers of gayness are displayed? Is this catfishing? Or dogdicking?

And, most importantly, is this a brand new sexual orientation? It's definitely _queer._

Anyone up for it with a trans person gives a new meaning to the term 'transsexual'. Very 'niche' I imagine. It's bloodboiling the number of (sorry) 'young and dumb' lesbians being coerced into sex with men for fear of being branded 'transphobic'. There's enough evidence out there for trans sexual coercion being a specific criminal offence. What a tide change of political courage we'd need for that in a Parliament that voted to make LGBTQ grooming in schools compulsory so genderqueer monsters don't say 'boo' to them. The bleaker things look, the more we must redouble our efforts to defeat this evil.

"2nd week back in school and today, 8 year olds were shown cartoons of naked adults and children and a doctor touching their private parts."

It's paedophilia (presented with Judith Butler-style meaningless phrases). If Welsh parents don't want their kids to be part of an experiment to see how far paedophiles can legally advance their cause, they now have no option but to homeschool their kids until the Welsh Education authorities take paedophilia out of the curriculum - and they need to do it in overwhelming numbers.

Welsh Gov are planning to interfere re any children being taught at home - so there will be no escaping it unless parents all say no! Lots are already pretty active fighting back and I hope they win

Strange how many unethical and cruel people are propping up an unethical and cruel ideology. Could it be possibly be the inevitable result of that Universal Law -- Like Attracts Like? Any ideology that generates so many unhinged adherents is not an ideology 'worthy of respect in a democratic society'.

Bravo for fathers who defend young girls, their right to a healthy childhood!

I'll soon be posting analysis of a 2019 study by 3 Polish doctors, topic: Young Women with Autism.

Important notes: females with autism are often diagnosed late, even into adulthood. They have difficulties with normal physical pubertal changes. (normal for all girls) The discomfort often does not subside until full cognitive maturation at age 25. Girls with autistic range mindset are very vulnerable to the propaganda that they just need to be a boy, it will make your differences go away. Girls must be studied separately from boys, women must be studied differently from men.

The corrupt use of girls with autism to justify the surgeries originally developed for men with a compulsive, narcissistic desire to co-opt female identity is beyond measure.

Craig Potter's Twitter account has gone. And cancel culture doesn't exist. Apparently.

I will be disappointed if Guy Garvey and others in Elbow have 'had a word' in the same way that Christian Henson was shut down by his colleagues. But Guy Garvey is a bit of a darling of the BBC with his 6 Music show and so on, so I wouldn't be surprised if the group and its PR are very much looking out for the brand. Who knows, but I will be very disappointed in Guy Garvey and Elbow if this turns out to be the case as I rather like them, a lot. I hope I am wrong.

Well let's not jump to conclusions. I heard earlier that Craig has had this shit before and has deactivated his account before. So hopefully he'll be back.

Jack Dee's blunt thoughts on Michael Jackson is something that I remembered for years as an example of the basics of safeguarding. Just as relevant with Girl Guides etc, the rules don't change because the man has made an effort to present themselves differently.

" (He made fun of the IT Crowd, y’see. No-one makes fun of my work but me!)"

IT Crowd...was and still hilarious!

" It’s great to see Jack Dee braving the mob to sit down and talk with him."

Saw Jack in concert many years ago...good show.

Just followed Dave in Wales … it is disgusting that this grooming/fetishism is taught to children.

@craiglpotter from Elbow has now been driven off Twitter, apparently. What a surprise. All respect to him for speaking out. This is SO heartening. Twitter is alive with truth (and rage). I'm loving it!

Yep. The poetry world is so full of woo-woo it's way more woo-derful than wonderful of late (if it's not I.-D.(non-)entity poetry, without an actual I.-D.ea in it's fuzzy little, boring as fuck, pre-recorded, tired little head.)--- In fact, I've already been dis-invited from submitting to 3 little lit mags ever again, because, apparently, "Pronouns aren't Funny!"--- (not even if they write YOU, out of the unsolicited blue, to let you know aaaall about the editors brand new ones... so exciting!)) And that's about half of what's out there in the dear old calls for submissions poetry world.

(Still, 14 different magazines, 20 poems published since January so... I guess I'm not black listed yet... Gog bless all the contrarians and old materially based lefties still out there... and thanks again., editors.)

And, of course, actual funny stuff is verboten... unless it's the (un)-funny stuff that comes from smiling while you pat your own back about how "woke" you are--- Gack! Cough! Potoee!!!!

Juuuust sayin'...

It's got to help that "woo" rhymes with "screw", "you" and also "poo". There's got to be a decent poem in there for you somewhere.
