Brava to Stephanie from a fan in the USA! Your brilliant work has had, and is having, impact worldwide. The UK is lucky to have you; you richly deserve this honour. I have learned so much not just from reading all the material you have produced, but from the way you handle yourself in interviews and on video. You come across as a font of information who is learned, kind, level-headed, erudite, down to earth, good-natured, patient... and so much more. You are a brilliant communicator, able to bring clarity to confusing topics and to make the complex and murky easy to understand. Congratulations! And best wishes.

Yes, this honour must be 'literal' violence to him and his creepy pals

A good point and gag Cathrine! I'd bet the ranch that as a direct result gender id extremists have declared the awarding of honours to be literal violence.

I was wondering because at the university where I used to work (admin), some of the academics were trying to put one Professor forward for an OBE so I assume those that petitioned to get Stephanie Davis-Arai are people she has supported in the past and it would be interesting to know who and whether they are influential in other ways.

As a French republican, I know where you're coming from, but this sort of award can be a real morale booster to some of us.

So well-deserved.

To be 'at it' for so long (my perception: in early days, almost solo?) and working so hard, deserves so much respect, and huge, huge thanks.

If one parent has seen any of Stephanie's work, and then thought 'hang on, what am I doing?' it would be incredible: that Stephanie has done that with, probably, 100s, if not 1000s, of parents, is a thing of complete awe. Just think of the children she has - and no exaggeration - SAVED, through her work. Incredible.

It's a wonderful award, but it's the recognition and its ripple-effect that I think are the massive positives of this.

Well done Stephanie Davies-Arai BEM!

The honours list is often hit and miss, but this time they chose well. Maybe our Graham will be honoured one day soon, when sanity returns to society! Fingers crossed!

Gosh , that's BRILLIANT 👍👍👍! She totally deserves it as she's done such marvellous work in exposing the carnage being done to children's bodies to validate adult men. Well done to her.👏♥️
