1./ 🧵What's the Truth About Trans Surgery? 2 months ago I wrote about a surgeon who conspired with body mutilating fetishists to have his healthy legs amputated. The aptly named Neil Hopper has now been jailed. Let me tell you how his story shines a light on the trans agenda.👉

2./ It's not that Hopper claims he always wanted to be a girl. Nor that he took advice about his amputations from a cult led by Marius Gustavson, an LGBTQ+ activist who cut his penis off and kept it in a drawer. As opposed to his drawers. There's more.👉

3./ Gustavson's two compulsions- the desire for castration and that for limb amputation- were recognised as fellow sexual paraphilias by the man who first popularised the term "gender identity" and helped set up the world's first gender clinic: Professor John Money. Who he? 👉

4./ Money, a paedophile, coined the term apotemnophilia in 1977 to describe the pathological desire to have healthy limbs removed. He argued this was driven by a profound masochism closely allied to that of transsexuals. Transsexuals didn't however just hate themselves. Oh no.👉

5./ Money agreed with Robert Stoller, who invented the term 'gender identity', that transsexuals were extreme versions of the misogynistic 'sissies' Stoller studied in so-called "sissy porn". There men weaponised their "feminisation" to wreak revenge on women. It gets worse. 👉

6./ By adopting the persona of a pseudo female Stoller argued a trans male believes he's now a far superior kind of woman; one that "courageously" inflicted pain and suffering on himself in order to become one. You can witness the same dynamic at work in Neil Hopper's story. 👉

7./ After his lower legs were replaced with prosthetics, Hopper reinvented himself on social media as "bionic". In 2020 he was nominated as a BBC Brave Briton. He applied to become the first disabled astronaut. Like a trans identified male he was now the centre of attention.

8./ Like many trans stories Hopper's seemed to have a remarkable irony. As a cardio-vascular surgeon he had removed many patient's legs before he turned up at A&E with what seemed like sepsis in his legs. An irony that seems darker now. A darkness shared by trans tales too.👉

9./ You may believe Theo Upton's interest in medicine is innocent. Hopper shows pathology and medical career can intersect. As does the example of the leading gender surgeon Marci Bowers who was a gynaecologist for years before he had himself castrated. Business and pleasure?

10./ Hopper's story is important because it reminds us how bizarre it is for people to choose to mutilate their bodies in order to solve alleged psychological issues. Yet he was doing nothing more disturbing than happens in gender clinics every single day.

11./ The trans lobby has managed to normalise the idea of chopping women's breasts off or amputating men's genitals. But none of this is more normal than removing healthy limbs. In a BBC show I helped make 20 years ago the UK's leading expert on transsexuality compared the two.

13./ Our society needs to regain its horror of elective mutilation. If it does it will be in no small part to the work of @_CryMiaRiver. Here's me, Mia and my good mate @stellaomalley3 exploring apotemnophilia among other horrors. I'd say enjoy but...🥶.👇
