The baked-in dishonesty of trans rights activism

It would die without lies

Yesterday I published a photograph of the butchery that has been rebranded with the cutesy term ‘top surgery’ by those who promote this disgusting, homophobic, harmful ideology.

Allison Bailey, the lesbian barrister who is suing Stonewall, made a powerful speech at the LGB Alliance event in which she made the point that young women are removing their breasts “before they’d known a lover’s caress”. The whole speech is well worth your time, but that particular section starts around 36:19.

“People ask, what's the best way to peak trans someone? I think telling them about detransitioners is one way. But what I have done is I send people Laura Dodsworth’s photographic storytelling. Do you remember that? It was, I think it was in The Times, she took pictures of detransitioned women, showing the breast amputations, showing the facial stubble, showing the male pattern baldness, alongside a narrative of what brought them to that point. And almost invariably, there was trauma. There was same sex attraction. And one of the saddest things that I read, and I don't I hope she doesn't mind me saying this was Sinead’s (Watson) contribution. Sinead has had, as she's told you, her breasts amputated, and she has taken male hormones that have given her secondary male characteristics, voice and she has hair loss. And she said that all of this had happened before she had had a partner, an intimate partner. Can you imagine that? And up and down the country and around the world. Girls are removing breasts that have never known a lover's caress.”

Of course, because trans rights activism simply cannot survive without lies, this line has been highlighted by dishonest men who are trying to paint Allison as a predator. Meet Richard Ma and PositiveLad.

There’s nothing more to say, really. I just wanted people to see it.
