What's REALLY behind the mass increase in children struggling with their gender?
For years, parents were told there was a medical consensus. Today, senators heard testimony challenging that narrative.
Dr. Kurt Miceli outlined growing concerns about the quality of evidence behind pediatric gender interventions.
Oh dear. Canon Clare of Sunderland Minster has had her arse handed to her by the trustees, who’ve obviously been advised by decent lawyers.
FAFO indeed.
‘Four major newspapers published 17,000 articles about trans people in the last five years. How about mind your own business?’
This is extreme hypocrisy. There was no objection when trans-affirmative items, features and films were being pumped out without relief to a previously uninterested public. Indeed all that content had the encouragement of, and many were instigated by, organisations specifically set up to ensure that the self-identifying narrative swamped every media outlet.
No presenter should ever allow this claim to get past them. Trans activists wanted media coverage, lots of it - they just don’t like it now it’s moved toward journalism instead of unadulterated PR.
@NadiaWhittomeMP Remember this signatories - 48 MPs demanding the abolition of women's single-sex rights & spaces. MP's who believe that any man should be allowed into Rape Crisis Centres, DV refuges, women's prisons, sports etc if he simply says the magic words: "I identify as a woman".
@theresaverity What grift? Tell me where you get your intelligence on this. Myself and all the TERFs I know are either penniless or working hard to stay afloat! You jest, surely?
Nice to see young LGB taking up the same sex attracted mantle again. TQ+ is boring now ..
BBC PAID A WOMAN HALF A MAN SALARY FOR THE SAME JOB AND THOUGHT NO ONE WOULD NOTICE
Carrie Gracie spoke fluent Mandarin. Ran the @BBC Beijing bureau. Thirty years of service. One of four international editors at Britain's most prestigious broadcaster.
Then the BBC was legally forced to publish salary data in 2017. Gracie looked at the list. Her male counterpart covering North America was on up to £249,000. She was below £150,000. Not even on the published list. Neither was Europe editor Katya Adler. The two women. Funny that.
She had explicitly made equal pay a condition of taking the China role. The BBC said yes. Then paid her nearly half anyway and apparently hoped she'd never check.
She checked.
She asked for equal pay. The BBC, with the confidence of an institution that had been getting away with this for decades, offered her a raise that still left her short.
She turned it down. Resigned from the post. Published an open letter to the licence fee payers explaining exactly what their public broadcaster was doing with their money.
The BBC's response was to put her through nearly a year of their own internal grievance process. Run by the same institution she was complaining about. Investigating itself. Shockingly, it went nowhere.
It took three separate meetings with the Director-General and the concrete threat of an employment tribunal before the BBC caved, issued a public apology, and paid her £361,000 in backdated wages.
She gave every single penny to the Fawcett Society (@fawcettsociety).
A publicly funded broadcaster. Breaking equality law. Caught red-handed. Dragging a 30-year employee through a year of institutional theatre. Paying up only when a judge became a realistic possibility.
@rejserin Whoever that EQTNET is who has turned off replies is the truly delusional one. You talk about being 'dehumanised' but pay no regard about dehumanising women and girls. The trouble is, you have no integrity, or you wouldn't impose upon us. It's sad..
@RoisinMichaux Save the Children removed a promotional video of Gillian Andersen reading my picture book The Problem with Problems because I'd spoken out against child transition.
A handy list of MPs who don't believe women should be included in the Equality Act and in fact would prefer us to go backwards to a time before the Sex Discrimination Act 1975.
