Powerful. Weaponisation of suicide is one of the most reprehensible manipulations of the gender ideologists. #bornnotworn #biologynotideology #trans

[Chris Brönimann @Nadiabro]

"Wollen Sie lieber einen lebenden Sohn oder eine tote Tochter?"
Wie man Eltern mit ihrer grössten Angst bricht.

Wenn ich diesen Satz höre, schnürt es mir bis heute die Kehle zu.

Er sauste einst aus den USA und England zu uns herüber, und heute fällt er fast alltäglich in Sprechzimmern – in Deutschland, in der Schweiz, überall im Westen.
Er trifft Väter und Mütter mit voller Wucht:

"Wollen Sie lieber einen lebenden Sohn oder eine tote Tochter?"

Ich kenne das Entsetzen in den Gesichtern dieser Eltern. Ich habe mit weinenden Müttern gesprochen, die völlig erschöpft, isoliert und ratlos vor mir sassen – innerlich so ausgebrannt, dass sie keinen Ausweg mehr sahen, weil man ihnen eingeredet hat, ihr Kind stünde direkt am Abgrund.
Aus Angst um das Leben ihres Kindes, aus grenzenloser Liebe unterschreiben sie alles. Jedes Rezept. Jede Freigabe für Pubertätsblocker. Jede Einverständniserklärung für Eingriffe, die nie mehr rückgängig zu machen sind.

Aber ich kenne vor allem die andere Seite.
Ich kenne die Seite des Jugendlichen.
Ich war dieser Junge.

Ich kenne die Verzweiflung, die Einsamkeit und das Gefühl, in der eigenen Haut zu ersticken. Ich kenne den Wunsch zu verschwinden. Ich habe damals mit jeder Faser meines Seins geglaubt:

"Dieser Junge in mir muss sterben, damit ich überhaupt weiterleben kann."

Ich dachte, mein gesunder Körper sei der Feind. Ich dachte, das Messer bringt Erlösung.

Fast 30 Jahre lang bin ich diesen Weg gegangen.
16 Mal lag ich auf dem Operationstisch. 16 Mal Narkose, Schnitte, Schläuche, Narben. Ich habe Organe geopfert, Gewebe, Gesundheit.

Und die bitterste Erkenntnis meines Lebens?

Jedes Mal, wenn die Narkose nachliess, wenn die Schmerzen einsetzten und die Verbände fielen, sass im Spiegel noch immer derselbe verletzte, einsame Mensch.
Ich hatte meinen Körper verwundet, aber der Schmerz in meiner Seele war noch genau derselbe.

Ein junger Mensch, der heute in seiner Pubertät verzweifelt, der sich fremd fühlt und nicht mehr weiterweiss, will nicht sterben.

Er will nur, dass der Schmerz aufhört.
Er sucht nach Halt. Nach Wahrheit. Nach jemandem, der ihn in den Arm nimmt und den Sturm mit ihm aushält.

Wenn wir einem suchenden Jugendlichen aber vorschnell einreden: "ja, du hast recht, dein Körper ist der Feind, wir müssen ihn verändern", dann heilen wir ihn nicht. Wir bestätigen nur seine dunkelste Angst: dass er so, wie er zur Welt kam, nicht richtig ist.

Ja, es gibt sie, die Betroffenen, bei denen nach jahrelanger, gründlichster und ergebnisoffener Abklärung aller seelischen Ursachen medizinische Massnahmen letztendlich Erleichterung bringen können. Das leugne ich nicht.

Doch das ist das absolute, sorgfältig abgewogene Ausnahmeszenario – niemals der Standard.

In vielen Fällen liegt die Not ganz woanders. Wir schneiden heute vorschnell an gesunden Körpern herum, statt verletzten Seelen auf den Grund zu gehen.

Und wir erpressen liebende Eltern mit der Angst vor dem Grab, damit niemand mehr wagt, Fragen zu stellen.
Ich sage das heute jedem Vater und jeder Mutter, die vor dieser Entscheidung stehen:

Euer Instinkt täuscht euch nicht.

Lasst euch nicht zu Entscheidungen drängen, die nie wieder rückgängig zu machen sind – und lasst euch erst recht nicht einreden, dass sorgfältiges Hinsehen euer Kind gefährdet.
Es braucht jetzt vor allem eure Zeit, eure Stärke und eure bedingungslose Liebe.

Es braucht Ärzte und Therapeuten, die genau hinsehen und seelische Wunden heilen, statt voreilig zum Skalpell zu greifen.

Und es braucht Erwachsene, die die Kraft haben zu sagen:

"Wir lassen dich nicht fallen. Wir gehen diesen Weg gemeinsam und halten diesen Sturm mit dir aus. Du musst nichts überstürzen. Nimm dir die Zeit, die du brauchst, um zu wachsen und herauszufinden, wer du bist."

Hört auf, die Angst von Eltern auszunutzen.
Und fangt endlich an, jungen Menschen die Zeit und den Raum zu geben, im eigenen Körper und im eigenen Leben anzukommen. 🙏

Precisely. It is a continuous feedback loop that traps vulnerable minds in repetitive, anxious rumination. Instead of breaking free from rigid sexist stereotypes, this ideology re-packages them and demands medical compliance. True therapy must disrupt that loop, not cement it. 👍🙏

I didn’t really get the problem with gender ideology at first.

I’m liberal-minded about most things. ‘Live and let live’ has generally been my motto. I believed in inclusion, kindness and not causing unnecessary offence.

I knew some adults chose medical treatments or surgery to resemble the opposite sex. That seemed to me a matter of personal autonomy. Adults can do what they wish with their own bodies.

What I hadn’t realised — and I feel slightly embarrassed admitting this — was that I’d misunderstood what was being claimed.

I thought “transgender” meant a form of self-expression. A man who liked wearing women’s clothes. Someone changing their name. Gender non-conformity.

What I hadn’t grasped was that some activists weren’t just asking for tolerance. They were asserting that declaring yourself the opposite sex made you the opposite sex. Not metaphorically. Literally.

And that this wasn’t just cultural. It had legal consequences.

It meant men who said they were women were demanding access to women’s sports, prisons, domestic violence shelters and hospital wards.

It meant the rewriting of healthcare language — “pregnant people”, “bodies with cervixes” — to avoid saying “women”.
It meant children struggling with identity being affirmed onto medical pathways with lifelong implications.

And also redefining same-sex attraction. Lesbians called ‘bigoted’ for not wanting relationships with men who identify as women. Gay men accused of prejudice for saying they’re not attracted to female bodies.

I’d also overlooked how deeply this had spread into public institutions, schools and workplaces.

And how easily disagreement was framed as cruelty. Speaking up felt risky — because others were being publicly humiliated for doing so.

None of this is abstract.

Because sex is the basis on which safeguarding works. On which data is collected. On which cancer screening programmes run. On which fair sport and single-sex spaces depend. It’s written into law — including the Equality Act — because material differences matter.

If sex becomes a ‘feeling’ rather than a biological category, those protections become unstable.

And once reality becomes negotiable, everything does.

Once I saw it, I couldn’t unsee it.

But I needed to be sure.

So I read. Books, research papers, policy documents. When I finally spoke publicly, there was backlash from all directions.

Many women thanked me, while some feminists criticised me for speaking too late.

Others were angry about a past interview I’d done with the parent of a transgender person, accusing me of promoting harm.

It takes courage to speak when you know your reputation, friendships or livelihood may be on the line — when you know raising your voice could strain, or even end, relationships you value.

Once I understood what was at stake, staying silent was no longer an option.

I lost my livelihood simply for saying I didn’t like the phrase “pregnant people”. That alone tells you something is deeply wrong.

It shouldn’t be this way.

I don’t expect praise for admitting it took me far too long to understand what was happening. Or to say so publicly.

I can only be honest about what I believed then and what I understand now.

But it does take courage to admit publicly that you got something wrong. All I hope is that by acknowledging I wasn’t paying enough attention, another woman (or man) might feel emboldened to do the same.

Because, as many of us know first-hand, there can be professional, social and financial consequences to speaking out.

And I won’t pretend I understood something before I did, simply to make myself more acceptable to those who got there sooner.

Which is why I will never judge another woman for how long it takes her to find her voice.

Because every voice matters. Whenever it is raised.

Gender woo activists have rarely read what JK has written. A lot of assumptions and faux outrage going on though… #bornnotworn #biologynotideology #misogyny #absurd #dimwits

[♀️Jennifer Gingrich ✡️ @fem_mb]

Today after our prison protest in Massachusetts, 17 of us went for lunch at the Tavern in the Square. And of course @jk_rowling came up.

We were marveling at how the people who scream about how hateful she is and how she enjoys making trans people suffer can never quote a single thing she's actually said on the issue. They've never read any of the very extensive arguments she's made about it.

But they think they know that she hates trans people and wants them all destroyed. Wil Wheaton is sure she's evil and hateful, because he's never once bothered to read her actual words and try to have empathy for why she has real concerns for the rights of women.

That's the unfortunate state of progressivism today: demonizing the people you disagree with is far more important than understanding what you're actually disagreeing with.

P.S. I greatly regret my teenage crush on Wil, who grew up into a raging jackass.

Meanwhile, in a sane universe:

Lawmaker 1: “People should be able to change legal sex in all circumstances.”
Lawmaker 2: “But our entire society is built around safeguards and systems based on sex.”
Lawmaker 1: “You’re right, I don’t know what I was thinking. Motion withdrawn.”

In fairness, there are loads of videos of gender critical people saying the equivalent about trans-identified people. They just cunningly disguise their incitement to murder as ‘we don’t want men in women’s changing rooms.’

[Murphy XX @JulieMurph14125]

Women are done with being kind

[Cervixen @cervixen]

By substituting an artificial social performance (gender) for an unalterable biological reality (sex), gender theory has achieved a bizarre outcome: it defends patriarchal stereotypes as if they are innate identities, dismisses the oppression of women as secondary to men who are oppressed by other men for imitating women, and labels feminism as "exclusionary" for prioritizing female people.

Let us not beat about the bush, trans activists are literally using DSD/intersex conditions in a coordinated and unhinged attack on women's rights and same-sex spaces. It seems to be mostly men identifying as women doing this, I mean, most, if not all have XY chromosomes and don't have a reproductive disorder, yet they seem to be adamant that we are like some sort of magical key of why they identify the way they do. They just have a fetish and get off on being women, and I only ask more people to shun and criticise these dangerous, perverted men, as they will not hold back on which minorities they will hijack, misrepresent in an attempt to attack women with, and try to access their private same-sex spaces. We all have a duty to repel the pervs and delusional in society, call it out and shun them.

[Sex Reality Bites @sexrealitybites]

Emma Hilton’s article “Sex denialism: A new religion” argues that contemporary attempts to redefine or relativize biological sex resemble earlier creationist attempts to undermine evolution. Her core analogy is that both movements, in her view, take a well-established description of the natural world and try to recast it as arbitrary, socially constructed, or ideologically suspect.

“Method 3. Debate strategies like The Gish Gallop. This method is named for Duane Gish, who is a prominent creationist. What it boils down to is: throw any old argument, regardless of its validity, in quick succession at your opponent and then claim any dismissal or missed response or even hesitation in response as a score for your side. In Twitter parlance, we know this as ‘sealioning’, in political propaganda as the ‘firehose of falsehood’, although Wikipedia also suggests that it is covered by the term ‘bullshit’”…

Hi, I have XXY Klinefelter Syndrome, my condition doesn't make me not of the male sex, but evidence of the male sex, as KS only occurs in males. There's no 'other' sex, and I don't like people assuming that's I'm some other variation of human, when I'm not. I'm just a male with a chromosomal aneuploidy.

When it finally clicks that you were faced with a movement of men trying to forcefully break down women's boundaries, and you proudly stood with the men, that will be on you.
