It is a sickness which they delight in...and it makes me feel sick hearing about it!

They all need therapy.

Big Psych is driving this agenda, along with Big Pharma. “Therapy” is the last thing they need.

Something more like an exorcism seems more appropriate. It's more reinforcement and encouragement from every direction compounding this man's delusions. There needs to be a register of anyone offering any type of professional training and they have sprung up like a fungus. I am really scratching my head as we used to have to abide by fairly strict rules about what constitutes continuing professional development.

Watch out for those bridges and other critical infrastructure falling down while they wait for some equality and inclusion gender identity emancipation bolloxology training. Maybe bridges need to be wearing their sister's knickers.

I read Sarah's Twitter thread about this. It made me feel sick. Imagine being compelled at work to sit and listen to that man flaunt his fetish? Completely gross. The people engaging his services must be exceedingly dim.

I mean, can you imagine any other male in a workplace being given a platform to tell an organisation how he liked to wear his sister's underwear when he was a boy?

It was hard to watch wasn't it. How he portrayed destroying women's boundaries as some 'human' response to change and advised the viewer to embrace your fear and go for it. How can an employer be so coercive? It's not usual to expect employees to be forced to do this. This wasn't 'training' it was forcing employees to listen to a man's perversions.

I'm not sure what he was waffling about - every example was strange and pointless. His point on 'white van men' letting him cross the road if he dressed up in a particular way means he seems to have swallowed every societal and male stereotype about women and is now being paid to vomit them back out at us and be applauded for that.

“Cool2BTrans” is such a comically awkward name, I can hardly believe it’s really called that. Is there by any chance a logo using a faux-graffiti effect?

Sexuality is a very broad church. It's like anything else... that's like that.

- Tolerance is very important.

Yeah.

- This is what people forget. Gays are just ordinary, healthy guys.

But dykes are evil.

- Olly!

Picture a scene. You arrive home early to find your wife in bed with another man.

- Olly, let's...

But it's not a man. It's a big, fat lezzer wearing my slippers, smoking my pipe!

Don't touch me, you poof!

- D'you wanna take a break?

I'm fine!

Where was I?

The man has no self-awareness. Only 'me me me'.

If I met a man with self-awareness, I would fall down dead.

Oi! I have at least some self-awareness - enough to know I need more, if nothing else 😂😂

Such a big issue for them is compelling us to go along with them.

It's such utter bullshit, and quite why so many play along is baffling.

I think some people are astonishingly naive. They would rather not think about what gets some men's rocks off. And of course any mention of AGP, even in places that have given women some latitude to talk about the 'trans issue', like Mumsnet, have censored discussion of it

Another one who’s trying to wear us like a coat. I’m sure he “represents the trans community really well.”

I don't think taking wrong-sex hormones will help with the male-pattern baldness. If it did help, a lot of women who are now experiencing baldness due to poor nutrition would be taking it. Time for a toupee!

Say his name. If Martin’s open letter to JK Rowling had been signed Martin Neeves instead of “Katie” Neeves, would it have had any credibility with anyone at all? No wonder they don’t want to be “dead-named”. There is a near magical power in naming. Say his name. The use of the original male name works like a sharp needle poked into the puffed up souffle of nonsense. (I'm enjoying this souffle metaphor.) Using the original "assigned at birth" male name is akin to slamming the oven door on a carefully constructed airy codswallop. Say his name. All will become clear.

Thank you Genevieve. His website states 'he spent nearly 50 years pretending to be male.'

He wasn't pretending, he was male, he is male, will always be male, and he is now pretending to be female. And he is 'in transition' apparently. I am becoming less and less empathetic to men (or women) choosing to twist every potential societal advantage to prop up their delusions and eke this out for as much attention as they can get for extra 'human' rights.

Sarah not only had to endure the AGP-fest at work, but she is also pursuing a case against her local rape crisis centre, because it does not have women-only support groups. Even though it has a specialist trans service, it allows transidentifying men to use a group for traumatised women. How much should a woman who's experienced male violence and exertion of power have to endure? She is an amazing woman.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10249633/Rape-victim-forced-quit-therapy-sessions-feels-threatened-6ft-trans-woman.html

Beyond that, this guy has actually previously commented in a threatening way about Sarah herself as a result of that case.

"If the conversation happens, I would love to be a fly on the wall. Better still, I would join you in educating her!"

Oh God, yes I forgot that. What a POS this man is. Her workplace is complicit in harassing her. The TRA world is so small, and so powerful, and so much of it seems to be centred in one part of the country

This person got booked for international women’s day where I used to work. Talking about their/his journey to “womanhood”. Not sure Maya Forstator’s case had been finalised at the time so no one felt they could say anything. They would probably be appalled to read this article- at the time they were being trained by Stonewall and half heartedly practicing “trans women are women” mantra. I would say they were pretending to go along with it to look good 😂 and to appease younger workers. Part of me hopes they read this and feel embarrassed. The other half is a bit sad they were so easily convinced this was a good idea.

Bloody hell. Just wow. This case has riled me more than I expected. It's the complete capture of so many UK employers and choosing that day of all days is such a two fingers up to all women. No women about was there? Can't remember the last training session I completed where a woman talked about dressing up in her sibling's knickers but I'm sure we can work it in somewhere, seeing as it's such vital life-saving information to impart. How do I apply that 'learning' in any potential job role? Ask my male employees about their fetishes and hold a suitable head tilt while I coo, nod and gently hold their elbow in a supportive manner?

Employers like that remind me of that scientific experiment where people were supposedly electrocuting others because someone in a white coat ( stonewall) told them to do it.

You’re right though - it felt a bit like not being invited to your own party while someone pretending to be you unwrapped all your birthday presents

It's the Milgram experiments on obedience. They've since been replicated and the results were the same.

Where I work, International Womens Day is being celebrated with a series of talks among the talks is one on gender and being inclusive and one being given by the Pride network on being part of the LGBTQ+ community. Women can't even have one day about them without it including men in one form or another.

He's not very smart, is he? He thinks taking oestrogen will revert his baldness? Once it's gone, it's gone forever, mate. Those follicles have gone and won't come back. That's like expecting a severed hand to regrow.

All of us women who also suffer from inherited, progressive baldness would be delighted if we could pop a few hormone pills to "bring it back".

Ar*e hole.

I can't believe fetishists like this are given a platform!

I suppose human sexuality is an exuberant sort of thing that has long had its excesses and oddities. What's new is expressing them publicly and elevating them to the status of an identity. What's baffling is why anyone would confuse this particular oddity with actual women actually being women. And why anyone would pay £63.22 for the privilege of undergoing such a confusion process.

Neeves says: “When you’re talking about a trans person, please don’t say they were ‘born a boy’, or ‘born a girl.' Please acknowledge that we weren’t born with that label, we were given it. It’s much better to say they were ‘assigned male’ or ‘assigned female’ at birth.”

My answer:

“No. I WILL continue to say you were born a boy. I will NOT acknowledge that you were ‘labeled’ male at birth. You were NOT ‘assigned’ male at birth. You were male at conception, you are male now, and you will die a male.

“In short, no thank you.”

If he had really been a woman why did he need a woman to become a parent? 😂

Predator is the only word to describe him. No wonder his marriage broke up. I've seen some heartbreaking stories on YouTube from the ex wives of cross dressing men , otherwise known as " trans " widows and some of them are really shocking

‘Martin/Katie was not only heterosexual, he wanted a child’. Yep, he knew that to become a parent he needed a WOMAN.
