“This is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end, but it is perhaps the end of beginning”.
As this whole gender insanity starts to unravel in earnest we mustn’t allow those who supported it for so many years to fade back into society without consequences.
And we must remember how this all started: it was an experiment administering oestrogen to a small groups of male transsexuals back in the 1950s. Transsexuals could not be "simulacra" of the OPPOSITE of their real biological sex until the discovery of human sex hormones. Dr John Money, Mr Alfred Kinsey and Mr Harry Benjamin carried out the "treatment" on these transsexuals and the patients were pleased with the changes both physical and emotional - at least for a few years. In order to give it a veneer of "scientific respectability" Money invented a new concept, "gender identity", which, he said, was the "sex in the mind" which was opposed to the "sex of the body" of these patients. He just plucked the idea out of thin air. There was and there still is NO evidence - real hard physical evidence - to support the postulated existence of "gender identity". It is pseudo-science. And we know that a sizeable number of "transitioners" come to regret the physical changes which they have made to their bodies, as they recover their mental capacity. There is a world-wide scandal for the entire edifice of "transgender" just waiting to happen.
Our aspergers son (16) has swallowed this whole so and has been talking about him being a girl and hoping to make this real with surgery. The closure of this ghoulish place could not have come at a better time for us, as I can talk to him and show him real life instances where ‘being trans’ is not as real ‘or natural as being gay’ (his understanding thanks to school education/shit on the internet.)
We all know Graham- maybe others will have the decency to apologise to you but I doubt you'd want to associate with them now anyway. Even before I immersed myself in all the research when I first heard about this I remember saying to family "sex changes.....for children...!??" "that sounds like something the Nazis would do...."
Exactly so. Thank you for what you have been doing - it was your activism that alerted me to the issue in the first place. So, so many people owe you an apology.
Thank god for Graham's courage and humour and eloquence and intelligence. Where would we have been without him? Yes, there's been other brave souls -- of course -- but JKR and Mr. Linehan are in another league. Born for this battle -- they showed up when they heard the call. Vindication is a wonderfully powerful and uplifting word, isn't it?
Yup, you were right and stood up for what was right unlike other cowards. So many of us have had the right reaction to the medicalisation of children. Those that supported it should not be allowed to forget. I hope that interviewer is remembers how hostile she was and feels a bit of shame for her part. I doubt it. But she should.
Also Graham, every time I watch that I can see how stressed you were which makes your courage even more tangible. I've been bullied, and that was a public bullying but you handled it so well. It was watching that that bought me here and I am grateful for that.
Well Sarah Smith is based on America now so she’ll be surrounded by all manner of crazy. My liberal cousin in Florida who values my opinion in many things just can’t discuss the trans stuff as she’s so confused about it. The power of propaganda.
Or more specifically the power of agreeing to "conform" to received opinion. See Maya Forstater's excellent article on Medium from 2020 "The power of the powerless" about the dissident Vaclav Havel: https://mforstater.medium.com/the-power-of-the-powerless-d930a92f5f05 Vaclav Havel thinks critically.
Many people knew you were right, but how wonderful to be so publicly and resoundingly vindicated. I admire hugely your commitment to this fight in the face of utterly unacceptable abuse, threats and actions taken against you. I hope that those who have sought to harm you professionally will now publicly apologise and it will be interesting to see what excuses they now trot out for their support of the physical mutilation and sterilisation of children. Thank you for being so determined in your protection of women and children.
I don't know what the Queen's honours, medals and award are called but you should get one or five plus a knighthood. Remember Graham , that you have not just advocated for women and girls and vulnerable children and adolescents in the UK but all over the fukcing world, at great personal cost. Those of us here in Canada, where not ONE SINGLE public figure, CEO, government official, MP or MPP or Senator or celebrity will stand up for women, look across the ocean to TERF Island - British Women and Terf-tastic Fellas - for inspiration, technical advice and strategic planning. Canada is so far behind on this issue. We are still establishing public policy that the UK is now shutting down. Canadians have rolled over due to fear, self preservation or just being unaware. You, Kathleen, Maya, Marion, Morty Arty, the Helens, Keira, James, that lovely Baroness lady, Allison, Ritchie, Kellie-Jay, JKR , Mister Menno, the whistleblowers at Tavistock, and all of the rest of you too numerous to mention give HOPE to Canadian Women fighting against this dangerous ideology. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. PS I had never heard of you until I stumbled across the IT Crowd on Netflix.
Jessie I am with you on all of this. I remember waking up to what was happening when Marion Millars persecution kicked off at the same time as Suzanne Moore was edged out of the Guardian by lesser beings. On the first protest I went on I met women and some men like Mr Menno and Debbie Hayton as well as Graham who had travelled all the way up to Scotland in support. That is what Canada needs - an issue and grass roots supporting each other as well as drawing in credible names with courage.
I'm tempted to suggest to Newsnight they have you back on now that your Nazi experimentation comparison looks reasonable rather than alarmist and the 'mystery' of all those doctors leaving has been well and truly solved.
Absolute vindication ,Graham ,and this would have been realised sooner if more detransitioners had felt able to come forward. Well done to you and shame on all your former "friends" and colleagues who turned against you. We won't forget 👍♥️x
Graham is able to look back at this interview with pride, and the ability to sleep the sleep of the angels. But this openly hostile interviewer? Not so much.
You have been. Women and children and beyond will be eternally grateful.
It is coming out. A drip has become a stream.
You and a handful of others - some of the bravest, most selfless people in the world - this is not an overstatement - will be celebrated in the records of history.
Thank Graham you for everything you have done in support of women and children xx
And , indeed, everything you continue to do. Thank you a million times over xx

This is life saving stuff

You deserve so many apologies and an award for your work.
Been watching Lawrence Fox’s videos of the arrests, previous post. Looked serious. Does anyone know what happened following the arrests?

Indeed you were, Graham. Huge admiration as ever for your tireless and hugely courageous dedication
