hearing the stories from brave female de-transisioners is whats going to change the game -because people need to know whats really going on behind the wordtrickery - and its old-fashioned misogyny and homophobia.

"The Alphabet Army are a disgrace to the totalitarian community" 😂😂😂 ... I worried at the start that Herr Hitler's anti-wokeness was kinda making me like him 😱... but then the propaganda thing hit. Of course it’s all f*****g propaganda (Baroness Nichol might be watching) - with the aim of brainwashing us into feeling bigots for having boundaries.

Lovely lovely photo of Keira and friends btw, right cheered me up 💕

The Femme Loves 💚🤍💜 tweets are an absolute must-read. Makes it so clear why safeguarding is important and why we must not let the juggernaut of gender identity ideology erode those boundaries. What's the point in putting up fences if only to give the key to all and sundry? There's a reason why they're there. And we've seen a lot of what's trying to get in, and they will stay up.

There's a lot of "they're just genitals" or "they're just bodies" in response to the women uncomfortable with male nudity in the women's area of the spa. That is what eroding boundaries looks like. That is grooming. It is gaslighting women and girls into letting their guard down around men, around inappropriate behaviour by telling them they are hateful bigots for objecting. So much enabling of this dangerous manipulation.

The penis-waver in the Wi Spa change rooms reminded me of the Four Corners doco about George Pell from a few years ago. True, he was acquitted on appeal and other allegations weren't pursued, but there were a number of disturbing stories about his behaviour and this doco featured an interview with a guy who was involved with the surf lifesaving club. One day, he says, he walked into the change rooms and found Pell, starkers with bits on full display, standing in front of a group of young boys. This man quite rightly told Pell to get lost and never come back. https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/pell-accuser-first-aired-concerns-four-years-ago-20160728-gqfnru.html

Now let's say that particular cleric, or someone like him, claimed, "I'm a LAYDEEEE" and pulled the same stunt on the women's change rooms in front of young girls. The woman or man who told him to get out would be pilloried in Penis News as a raging bigot.

Is Paisley mocking someone for being overly sensitive or hyperbolic? Can I just say that if anyone has him on their Christmas list, there's a big sale on MIRRORS at Argos this week. He fucking needs one. Badly.

Found an Aja yt video on an LGB Alliance page. It's called Blue Ticks and the Pervert. Excellent stuff! Referencing the Wi Spa incident and ensuing protest.

We already knew Hitler wouldn't be invited, they've compared us to Nazis so ergo Hitler must be a terf. 🤪

Obvious parallels with breast amputation on GNC girls and transmen.

Yes. But whereas amputations of breasts of girls and young women in the name of gender identity is now celebrated as 'finding your true self!' and other such horrendously grooming BS, it is instructive to compare how gender reassignment was spoken of in that 2000 column:

'Kenyon Mason, a professor dealing with medical ethics, said the law would view the case in much the same way as it would gender reassignment. "As long as you say that people can have a sex change for what is a severe psychological disease, then it is difficult to say you cannot have an amputation for this form of severe psychological disease," said Professor Mason.'

Probably one of the reasons why they lobbyists wanted dysphoria removed from the psychological disorder handbook. Can't remember the name of it, sorry.

Yes, it was 'gender identity disorder'. The parallels with eating disorders and apotemnophilia are obvious, when people allow themselves to see them. But ideologically-driven pressure was exerted to rename it to remove 'disorder', so it was duly neutered to 'gender dysphoria' in 2013. This enabled the concept of 'dysphoria' to spread as a catch-all label teens have been led to misapply to any number of life's woes, especially typical ones of adolescence, of being autistic, or any kind of outlier; struggles with sexuality, with abuse or trauma, and on....

And now we're at a place where the painstaking psych examination and treatments needed for young people who develop gender identity disorder/gender dysphoria, instead of funnelling them straight to hormones and surgeries, is instead becoming subject to bans. Crazy, unethical, heartless.

Terminology and jargon are far more potent in shaping and limiting our thinking than we realise.

The DSM, and it leaves out racism, misogyny, and entitlement, which are all psychological diseases in my opinion, with entitlement probably being the most dangerous of all. "I have a right to your body," "I have a right to your identity," "I have a right to the best of everything at the expense of everyone else."

I have heard of this. As someone who is severely disabled no one but someone else who is severely disabled can imagine what I would like to do to a man who has so much self-indulgence that he has his legs amputated. And as for surgeons, I call them all Sweeney Todd.

Francis Aaron is amazing.

I've forwarded that to six friends on whstapp. All before breakfast.

Allyson made a mistake, and she owned up to it. I have yet to see a single TRA do the same.

And I really, very strongly dislike that Paisley character. Nasty, swaggering bully.

Brilliant! very very funny and accurate. Were Stonedeaf really excluded?

Incidentally if anyone fancies being re-peaked or you fancy peaking a few newbies. Two things

Hollyoaks current storyline has a trans woman being bullied by women in a women’s prison

And tik-tok has this

Great song! Right on, and thanks for sharing!

Is the David Paisley quote for real? If it is, I would suggest that everyone with some spare high-glycemic carbs stuff them in his letterbox. Apparently he can't keep himself from eating them.

Not at all happy about the Government’s response to James Esses petition. A lot of words but little concrete they could be pinned down for. Mostly the response is pure verbiage.

It's been a difficult week, the terrific Gary Powell, making serious points while being so funny has cheered me a little. Who knew, when Downfall came out that this small section would be the gift that keeps on giving. I loved the movie but love what people do with it.

Will check all the other clips tomorrow as I'm off to watch my DVD of Count Arthur Strong, received today (along with Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's Half of a Yellow Sun)
