The forthcoming ruling in the Keira Bell case could reverberate worldwide. Evidence shows a massive increase in the number of girls, mostly lesbians, “identifying” as boys. Cross-sex hormones produce irreversible effects, often including infertility./1of2

A reminder: puberty blockers are neither harmless nor reversible. There are many short-term side effects, the long-term side effects are unknown, and almost 100% of children who take them go on to take cross-sex hormones.
Many of the young women concerned have bitter regrets. Please read the stories of these detransitioners, for instance at @post_trans . We support adults who experience the need for hormones and surgery to relieve their suffering. Children are too young to make such decisions.

Our second Gay Spot (link below) saw a rise in people viewing, and was an informative and good-natured discussion about how the idea of gender identity negatively impacts same-sex attracted men (and women).

The next one is planned for January.

There is still ongoing confusion, and misinformation, about who we are and what we stand for, please do go straight to the source and take a look at our website to see for yourself.

Here is our submission to the three-day OHCHR seminar on academic freedom we attended earlier this year. It highlights the key role of social media companies, rather than governments, in controlling online discourse, which impacts on academic freedom. ohchr.org/Documents/Issu…
“To a very large extent, our freedom of expression is controlled by corporate enterprises such as Google, Twitter, Facebook, Medium, and WordPress. These companies decide which information and ideas are permissible and which must be banished.”
Although the RationalWiki page on #LGBAlliance is no longer, as the submission states, the first item to appear when googling LGB Alliance, this page is still prominent and it is not possible to edit the page to correct the disinformation on it.

It is always concerning, and disappointing, when an elected representative feels that is is acceptable to make unsubstantiated claims about people he neither knows nor has spoken to. @AlynSmith describes #LGBAlliance as "shadowy" 1/4
thenational.scot/news/18895618.…
& adds that we "have wilfully sought to misrepresent & undermine policy & have been vicious in (our)conduct on social media, claiming victimhood & bemoaning cancel culture." Not a word of this is true. @AlynSmith will you join us on Zoom so we can tell you what we are about? 2/4
Would it be useful for you to watch our last webinar where we lay out the reasons why we formed & our plans for the future. It's easy to watch on youtube.com/watchv=gHtNmUn…. Now there are 13 LGB Alliances worldwide - it's a truly global issue. #SexNotGender 3/4

Welcome to #lgballiance, the home of people who know that lesbians are women who love other women, and gay men are men who love other men. On the basis of #SexNotGender. We are here to defend the rights of LGB people. This is a personal struggle for us.
It is personal because of the constant messages we receive asking for our help. Lesbians who write in confusion, having been excluded from LGBTQ+ spaces for being “transphobic”. Gay men who write in sadness that their men-only events are being attacked as “transphobic”.
Messages from teachers, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, politicians, NHS staff, civil servants, and from all walks of life saying they don’t dare to express their opinion about gender identity for fear of losing their job for supposedly being “transphobic”.

Here are some additional facts about the medicalisation of "gender non-conforming" children. Puberty blockers can be prescribed once a child reaches Tanner Stage 2. This is the first stage of puberty; usually age 9-11 in girls and age 11 in boys. 1/7
bbc.co.uk/news/health-55…
The youngest child GIDS has treated with hormone blockers to date was 8 years & 9 months old. Puberty provides a window of development which, if missed, cannot be regained at a later stage. The NHS website asserts: “Little is known about long-term side effects of hormone or 2/7
puberty blockers in children with gender dysphoria". Although Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) advises this is a physically reversible treatment if stopped, it isn't known what psychological effects may be. It’s also not known whether hormone blockers affect the 3/7
