Some more suggestions:

"Doing whatever Stonewall wants is easier than listening to gays and women"

"Gay/Autistic youths don't deserve evidence based healthcare"

"Biology denial depends on a steady supply of youths confused at school"

"Experimental mass-medicalisation of gay/autistic kids is fine by me"

Or some factual ones:

"Puberty blockers cause crippling bone density deficits and lead to kids in pain"

"Homophobia is a safeguarding concern at the Gender Clinics (See Appleby v Tavistock)"

"No one can explain the 5000% rise in girls presenting at the Tavistock between 2009-19 and I don't care why"

"Statistically, children to take puberty blockers end up on hormones. It's not a pause, it locks them into lifelong medicalisation"

"Adults who would never consider surgery require confused gay/autistic children to do so as an emotional prop in their campaign to erode female boundaries"

Why are the signs in pink? Is it to make the message seem cuddly and fluffy?

I support trans-identified women giving birth after years of testosterone resulting in smaller than normal placentas with unknown consequences for their babies. #haven’tdonetheirresearch

Just about sums it up. Give Dennis a supportive dig in the arm, hope twitter jail doesn't last too long this time.

Please could you get the truthful ones out there. These politians should be ashamed of themselves. Kids are being pressured into being trans at school, by peers and on social media its a fact.

"determinedly dim". Love it. Why can't these politician do their homework? We do, on our own time, on our own dime. They are paid by us to do a proper job. So, they are either complicit, lazy, or cowardly. Or dim. None of those categories are good.

Thank you Moley, Graham and Dennis! Your posts do help maintain a modicum of sanity in this post-truth metaverse, I am obliged to exist in.

It says everything about the 'allies' attached to this movement. They don't do any research, mostly they wouldn't need to anyway, they know they're endorsing lies and bullshit. They don't give a shit about the people they're claiming to support any more than they do about the ones they're helping to oppress.

A load of cynical bastards prepared to show how much they don't give a shit about women or vulnerable minors, because it inexplicably does them some good. It's not going to do that forever though, and when that happens I hope they'll be reminded of the stance they took in helping to entirely misrepresent the work therapists do or what conversion therapy is.

Moley, your work usually makes me laugh and is often needed), but this just makes me bloody angry (which is the right emotion I think). More clowns virtue signalling. Perhaps red noses and oversized shoes might have been a little over the top, and of course would have clouded the seriousness of what they are doing. All decisions should be evidence based, not misled virtue based!

Superb post thank you both. Thinking of posting it in work if there are more LGBTQ+ calls for help with this protest. Totally obvious people supporting it don’t understand and just want to be seen to be “nice”.

Great parody. Of course nobody's trying to push 'conversion therapy' for trans people. No-one who's grown up and has taken the decision is going to be coerced in any way. It's the kids we need to protect, who don't have a broad enough perspective to truly understand the implications of what it means to 'transition'. And in any case they're not getting 'converted' in any way just by avoidance of an 'affirmation' programme and adoption of the 'watchful waiting' approach. Ludicrous to paint this as "conversion therapy". It's "affirmation" which is much more dangerously close to real conversion techniques. If that was what was meant by banning conversion therapy for gender confused kids then it would have my wholehearted support. Sadly I'm pretty sure that's not what they mean. As always with this movement meanings are distorted out of all recognition.

No need to go further than:

Do you support sterilising Autistic kids?

These are brilliant. But is it really only that they haven't done the research or isn't often that they just don't give a damn?
