Protecting girls to enable them to grow to become strong women. What are Irish politicians doing for women and girls in this current climate?

1/ Ireland & the Gender Recognition Act 2015

Did you know that in one of the last debates in 2015, just before the Bill was enacted, elected officials tried to push through self ID for preschoolers in Ireland?

Did you know it’s a recommendation in the review of the GRA today?🧵

Between 1922 and 1998, over 80,000 unmarried mothers were incarcerated in church-run mother and baby homes. Margo Harkin’s documentary tells the stories of these women and their families.

Stolen premieres tonight at 9.35pm on @RTEOne.

I recommend everyone who can watch this documentary to do so. Deeply moving.

I was glad (and devastated) when i saw it in Belfast as part of my visit to the #UK earlier this year.

@dcediy Equality law includes 9 grounds for discrimination, one of them is "gender" which means sex but you have included "gender identity" instead. Can you clarify this please? Why have you included "gender identity" in your survey which is not in the equality legislation?

[DeeB @ddblake7]

@dcediy Am I reading this right, that in the survey to inform the National Strategy for Women & Girls, in the q on discrimination, there is no way to record experiences of discrimination on the basis of being a woman or girl? @IpsosBandA @WomensSpaceIre

[Department of Children, Disability and Equality @DeptCDE]

The public consultation on the new National Strategy for Women and Girls is open until September 30 and your insights will be vital in its design.

Not only disappointed but also very concerned about this dystopian ruling on #TickleVGiggle , which distorts key concepts like sex and discrimination while dodging Australia's international human rights obligations vis-à-vis women.

If unchallenged, this decision would set a dangerous precedent.

More detailed reaction from me next week.

Fair, sensible and compassionate decision from @swimireland acknowledging the right of everyone to compete while protecting the female category.
"We have determined that the views of our membership to prioritise fair competition must take precedence."

“Dr Hewitt advised… that 'there is no professional society of paediatric endocrinologists internationally who wld consider this anything other than a highly abnormal & frankly negligent approach'...'in Australia, the treatment provided by Gender GP would be unlawful'.

[Hannah Barnes @hannahsbee]

Extraordinary details in this case from the family court, highlighting just how badly gender-questioning young people are being let down: lack of NHS provision has led them to private providers. Here there was no physical examination before prescribing… https://t.co/6Lm57FApR5

3. No record of counselling the girl on the known risks of hormone treatment.
4. Testosterone prescribed at extremely high levels in a "negligent approach" that led to "dangerously high" levels putting J at "risk of sudden death".

[Sonia Sodha @soniasodha]

1. That the court found it so hard to engage a UK endocrinologist they had to go to Australia - telling in itself.
2. Prescription of testosterone to a 15 year old girl diagnosed with autism & anorexia with no physical exam and "extremely poor quality" psychological assessment

[Sonia Sodha @soniasodha]

Just catching up with today's judgment from the president of the family division of the High Court in relation to a case involving private hormone provider Gender GP. There's so much that's shocking in these few paras.

Dr Paul Moran: The Cass Report is welcome — here's what it means for Ireland https://t.co/McHCJO4Nv6

[The Countess @TheCountessIE]

Dr Paul Moran consultant psychiatrist at the National Gender Service and member of the Cass Review Clinical Expert Group of 2023 calls for the Government to remove references to WPATH in the Programme for Government and "instead adopt the Cass Report as the key policy document." #CassReview In this hugely significant piece in todays @thejournal_ie he also states that "Irish schools should not be taking the lead in the social transitioning of children. The Department of Health should reconsider some of the overly affirmative educational and training materials it is sending to schools and the prominent role it has given to activist organisations in policy development and teacher training."
