I am begging critics of the puberty blocker trial to stop getting lost in the weeds arguing about research ethics, Gillick competence, informed consent, fertility preservation and the like. The NHS’s refusal to complete the Data Linkage Study (DLS) before proceeding with a new trial is the ONLY argument worth making on this issue. Everything else is a distraction.
The DLS would find out what has happened to all the children who have already taken puberty blockers. There is NO justification for proceeding with a puberty blocker trial before the DLS is complete. The entire programme of future research in this area should be informed by its results. The fact that the NHS is getting ready to run a live experiment on vulnerable children before it has even established the fate of those it has already experimented on is utterly damning.
The deeply disappointing Dr Cass should be widely derided for her ridiculous comments on ‘harm reduction’. The DLS IS harm reduction. Critics of the trial must stop fighting on their opponents turf by quibbling over technical details. We need to relentlessly force the DLS onto the agenda and expose the shameful hypocrisy of the NHS. DO THE DLS.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

People with differences of sexual development are male and female. The various conditions that fall beneath the intersex umbrella are sex-specific. Klinefelter syndrome only affects men. MRKH syndrome only affects women. There is no third sex. Sex is not a spectrum, and the reason so many people with DSDs dislike the old-fashioned term ‘intersex’ is precisely because ignorant people like you use it to suggest they are hermaphrodites.

And lest we forget: the argument ‘some people are born with anbiguous genitalia, so men should be allowed in women’s changing rooms’ is one of the stupidest ever made.

A woman went to jail and was sexually assaulted by a man.
A woman used a public women's toilet and was confronted by a man.
A woman joined an AA meeting for women only that was chaired by a man.

It impacted those women greatly.

It impacts different women in different ways every day.

I hope it never impacts you, Elizabeth, but we have to stop it impacting women who are more vulnerable than you, because if the day comes that you are vulnerable - you will be impacted.

We are deeply disturbed and disappointed by the decision to reapprove the PATHWAYS trial. Puberty blockers are not a neutral pause, they are the first stage of medical transition. We already know that around 98% of children who begin this pathway proceed to cross-sex hormones.

Experimenting on children with interventions that carry lifelong consequences is unethical. The claimed benefits rest on subjective measures and are outweighed by the objective risks.

The detransitioners we work with describe the profound physical and psychological burdens they now carry. Many speak of temporary relief followed by regret, loss of fertility, sexual dysfunction, chronic health problems and the grief of irreversible changes.

Future generations will look back on this scandal with disbelief. Children deserve protection, honest medicine and rigorous science. The PATHWAYS trial offers none of these.

Male rapists and murderers who say they are women are being housed with women, masturbating in front of them, and threatening to rape and kill them in state prisons in Minnesota, New York, California, and Washington state, and federal prisons in Florida and Texas. It's a violation of the Eighth Amendment, it's a violation of the Geneva Conventions, it's a human rights abuse, it's a state-sanctioned abuse of women, all of it founded on an absurd lie that a man becomes a woman when he says that he is a woman. The same is happening in Canada and across the UK.

Affirming transgenderism requires inflicting absurdities and cruelties on women and children. Affirming transgenderism requires corrupting the language and corrupting medicine and corrupting the law. These aren't difficult questions once you understand the basic lie at the foundation of it. Any judge should be able to uproot and dismantle it. That none have yet is an index of a derangement afflicting the educated classes of the Western world.

One Scottish judge got it right. Now others must do likewise.

It starts here. The Federal Trade Commission in the US is going after an organization for deceptive claims regarding the treatment of children.

When WPATH said its Standards of Care 8 was evidence-based, they were lying.

When they said it was science-based, they were lying.

When they said “gender affirming care” was medically necessary, they were lying.

Last year, I asked who had the power to legally destroy them. 

Today, the Federal Trade Commission stepped up to the task.

[Nordic Model Now! @nordicmodelnow]

This is from the transcript of an incredible talk that Linda Thompson gave at an NMN webinar a few years back. Still just as relevant now.

“I’d like to share with you a quote from a woman, Wendy, who was involved in a piece of work that I developed called Inside/Outside. She talks about that experience of trying to articulate and tell others about what was happening to her while she was involved in prostitution – but for her, they really didn’t want to know. They didn’t want to know about the harms. It made them too uncomfortable to actually listen to that. For her, that silencing is like a gag.

It is incredibly important that we allow women the space, the time and the respect to articulate what has happened to them, because that is how we will learn and be able to come up with a way to eradicate the system of prostitution.

“People are supposed to be able to deal with this kinda thing but they're shutting down and tryin' to get you t'discuss other stuff that has no significance whatsoever to where you are. They don't wanna know it. You see the look in their eyes, it just makes them so uncomfortable, you can see that they think it's dirty, it's appalling, it's disgraceful. It's filthy and it's wrong.

That silencing is like a gag.”

Things are just going from bad to worse for WPATH, and you can be sure I'll be raising a glass to this excellent news tonight🥂

[Anna Maria Junus @JunusAnna]

I started down this rabbit hole in 2015.

It was a boy named Lila Perry. He insisted on being in the girls' locker rooms to change. He was offered his own changing room but he claimed the girls'.

Big red flag there. What girl wouldn't want their own changing room?...

[Adele @AdeleHuntConcon]

@Rob_ThaBuilder Also, this rhetoric sells the surgeries and "hormones replacement therapy" to victims eager to believe their bodies are "wrong" and need to be "corrected". But, they never really get there.

[Adele @AdeleHuntConcon]

@Rob_ThaBuilder And, the people who are being gaslit just want to believe nothing bad is going on and just want to keep the peace and please everybody. They know they would be very disturbed if they looked deeper into the subject.

Thailand's Princess Bajrakitiyabha has died, 3 years after she collapsed from a heart condition & fell into a coma. https://t.co/aRkBm8PcKA

She was a lawyer, ambassador and most importantly, a campaigner for the rights of incarcerated women who was instrumental in the UN's passage of the Bangkok Rules, guidelines for ensuring the safety and health of women in prison.

May her memory be a blessing.
