Graham, the quantity and quality of the research and writing you do is prodigious.

Thank you so much for leading this effort. Sometimes, it seems like you’re pounding most of the nails in this insanity’s coffin.

Wonderful collection, Graham! Thank you for confirming what most of us here have always known, namely that it is the Gender Identity Cult that is the problem, not ordinary, sane trans people such as those highlighted here.

To make cases for medical neglect easier to bring to court, we need to collate all evidence of transition harm's, and present them to Tavistock, Gender Drs and politicians.

just a few points to include, are increased suicide rates clustering around transition and up to 2 yrs post transition, testosterone effects on lowering IQ I'm both transwoman and Transmen due to bell curve correlation, estrogen increasing risk of Alzheimer's+cancer in Transwomen. . .

List myriad of causes and cures for GD, including Androgen resistance, SSRIs, Parkinson's meds etc

Include the case of Rowan Thompson, GD and psychosis caused by med induced Hypokalemia, so responsibility to check electrolytes+mineral levels.

Link between diabetes, thyroid issues and psychosis/disorder of thought/GD

Gender Drs need to be medically obliged to investigate all possible causes prior to signing off on transition, as study showing increased risk of suicide around transition is only one in existence that comes anywhere near proving the effects of transition on suicide rates, so can no longer use fear of suicide if they DON'T transition, to justify their medical neglect

If Drs can be proven to have been made aware of these risks, then fail to inform patient, and fail to do appropriate tests, much better chance of securing convictions for medical negligence for detransitioners, those suffering medical harms+suicides

Brilliant comment Beth Maiden. The medical and clinical professions are asleep at the wheel here. I worked alongside one surgeon in a different field and when I asked how data for one aspect of care was collected, she admitted there was no obligation to, and it was her own interest, with those in her team, that meant they had their own very informal spreadsheet as they tried to track it themselves. Certain incidents happening in certain post codes to certain deprived demographics. No one was interested. I tried to ask how we could get data collected, or even how we could even start to think of how to do it and someone very senior in Government (a woman) said no, it was too hard work. We know what these patterns are. Epidemiologists and Public Health do too - I want all of us on board.

There is much talk of 'co-production' in parts of the NHS, but it's light years away. I have a feeling enough of us within these professions and NHS absolutely must speak up, even at risk of our professional standing or advancement. Risk the deplatforming. Like we've not got enough on our plates.

I feel your frustration. So many resigning, bullied + being sacked under guise of protection, but like you say, reality is they don't even care to keep track of vital data.

There's no excuse for current care pathways given evidence in that suicide study though. As long as medical staff and government are presented with it and made aware of likely harm if they fail to safeguard, they won't be able to wriggle out of legal repercussions easily at least.

Im currently studying Education and Psychology, planning on becoming a teacher, and am extremely worried about what's going to happen to me financially etc, if this ideology is not unseated by the time I qualify, because there's zero chance I'll bend the knee and groom a child.

I hope for all our sake this information gets to where it needs to be and decisive action against this cult thinking in health, academia and government, is taken ASAP.

Good luck in standing your ground!

Thank you for that list. I hate to hate people. I love to look at people as simple human being like me.

F#ck those gender zelot and fetish selfish AGP who want to destroy women's right and contribute to create that war.

I'm shoked that Scott Newgent was ban from Twitter.

Hear hear. Some of these stories made me cry both with happiness and sadness. The point that resonated most is that friends don’t let friends drink the KoolAid. Dysphoria is not a delusion. 🙏

Huge respect to them all, can’t be easy raising their heads above the parapet, the hate they receive in the name of their ‘so called rights’ must be soul destroying at times

Hmmm, Blair talks the talk on social media, but allegedly doesn't walk the walk when it comes to his behaviour in airports once the bodyscanner (which is expecting a female body) detects his penis. See Triggernometry interview and subsequent discussion by Karen Davis.

Shout out to the transvestite man who had the Twitter moniker 'Men We Need to Talk' - I never found out his real name. He was a fine ally to women, & esp' those being abused by gender extremist men. Inevitably he was banned from Twitter for daring to assert trans women are trans women.

Katherine McGregor said "Extreme trans activists are 'dangerous"in that youtube interview. She and many of the trans-sexuals in your list have done real transitioning as opposed to the extreme T/As who make it their job to vilify them and think they are a woman if they wear a wig. It's almost as if they hate the fact that these trans sexuals , by virtue of their surgical operations, medications etc., have put themselves through processes which demonstrate biology exists.

I had a 'run in' with that Lennart bloke, lives in Norway, if I recall correctly. Raving bonkers and very, very violent, language/thought-wise. Told me he was taking medication which normally keeps him a bit more under control. Just think, he'd be allowed to come into Ladies Toilets/Hospital Wards and everywhere else where once, he'd have been arrested for entering. I think he was one of the very nastiest bullies I ever encountered on Twitter, adoring trying to make others frightened. Please pass my love and good wishes on to Fionne.

Thank you for this list. I really like Debbie Hayton but, only having joined the fight recently, I only knew a couple of other names. It's great to have a such a roll call.

Expand full comment

I'm sorry but I think the concerns of some of the rad fems about Debbie Hayton are justified having seen evidence shown. I am grateful for trans allies but I am not going to blindly adore them. In addition I was upset by Arty tweeting his sympathy to AGPs to the transwidows. It showed great insensitivity.

Debbie has changed most of his opinions on the things he gets trouble about. I don’t understand why people can’t see/accept that

This list contains some of my favourite people. I don’t just mean my favourite trans people, or my favourite gender critical people. But my favourite people out of all the people. 🌎

If you don’t listen to Corinna Cohn’s podcast, Heterodorx, co-hosted with radfem Nina Paley, do get into it: https://anchor.fm/heterodorx

And the two Aaron’s (Kimberley and Terrell) present an excellent podcast called Transparency: https://youtube.com/channel/UCIyT3tzs5d8JKnR6fJqbKfQ (video version) or https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/transparency/id1583333120 (audio version)

Also, if you do another list like this, @TransBlackberry on Twitter is always wonderfully scathing.

Oh! I love Fionne Orlander. Definitely gave me a few laughs in my dark days on twitter.
