The Scottish government has issued a guidance for schools that will require teachers to affirm students who claim an opposite sex identity, and suggests that students will be allowed to use facilities based on 'gender identity', rather than sex.
gov.scot/publications/s…
According to the guidance, boys may be allowed to enter spaces of girls' undress, including restrooms and changing rooms, should they claim to feel like a girl themselves. Image
Though the guidance acknowledges that girls may feel concerned about privacy or may resort to going home to use the toilet, or that they may limit their fluids during the day, the recommended practice seems to prioritize 'gender identity', ignoring how these issues conflict. Image
The guidance makes several contradictory statements, as seen here, suggesting that student concerns must be taken seriously, but apparently not the concerns of students or parents who object to boys in girls' places of undress. Image
Education Secretary @S_A_Somerville and @ScotGovEdu are promoting the binding of young girls' breasts in Scotland's schools. This is self-harm and misogyny.
Image
Male students may be permitted to room with female students on school trips.

Again, the guidance uses language regarding consideration for students' concerns, but implies that the concerns of students who claim a gender identity are to be prioritized. Image

Wikipedia, show me an example of a "moral panic". 🤔

"The moral panic over pedophilia began in the 1970's.
Sex was not yet part of the concept of domestic child abuse.

Pro-contact pedophile activist organizations such as Paedophile Information Exchange (PIE) and North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) were formed.

The concern over child sexual abuse was caused by feminists...
This in turn led to the creation of sex offender registries."Image
Image
Image
Image
Let me get this straight: pedophiles organized multinationally, lobbied governments for abolishing the age of consent; media began reporting on cases where actual children had been raped / abducted.

But the concern over child sexual abuse, says @Wikipedia, was a "moral panic" caused by feminists because until they spoke out against it, raping children wasn't seen as a problem, and actually, sex offenders aren't as dangerous as they are portrayed.

Wikipedia editors shouldn't be allowed to be anonymous.
Oh, look, sex trafficking is also a "moral panic" according to @Wikipedia Image

This is a 14 year-old boy saying that transgender "forced feminization" porn spurred his decision to claim a female "identity".

The medical transitioning of young boys is an extension of an adult sexual fetish - therefore, it is sexual abuse.
In the comments, the boy says he was 9 years old when he first saw forced feminization or "sissy" porn. Many commenters say they had a similar experience. One responder says he was 7 years old. Image
Image
Image
Forced feminization porn involves a male being "turned into a female" through sexualized feminine clothing, makeup, lingerie, etc.
Drugs given to children referred to as "puberty blockers" are also given to convicted sex offenders to chemically castrate them. Image

Not a single government is tracking deaths or adverse outcomes as a result of surrogacy, a medicalized process that uses powerful drugs such as Lupron - which is anecdotally linked to greater risks of reproductive cancer, and to elevated risks of lethal complications. Image
This is Lupron. This is the drug pumped into women's bodies during the surrogacy process. This is the drug used as a 'puberty blocker' on minors. Women have been trying to raise awareness of how it has ruined their health for decades now.

@DuncanHenry78 @Slatzism I'm tired of being gaslit about the harassment I've endured quietly, not making a fuss over, as if it isn't real, didn't happen, or someone else's feelings are a reason to discredit everything I've done.
This is about power, not feelings. That was obvious to me from the start. Image
Image
@DuncanHenry78 @Slatzism I knew that the whole point of crying "homophobia" to the extent of making shit up, claiming bigotry and hurt feelings, was really about self-promotion, and I was proven correct. Image
Image
Image
@DuncanHenry78 @Slatzism Fred said I made up the claim that he compared me to Hitler as a form of "victimhood whoring". But the truth is he did compare me to Hitler, and tried to discourage people from listening to an interview I gave about the harms of porn, and women being battered by men in prison Image

Germany has passed a law that enables parents to "transition" their babies from the moment they are born.

The Self-Determination Act, to be implemented Nov. 1, also imposes a €10,000 fine for exposing a transgender person's biological sex or "deadname."
Here is trans-identified male politician, Maja Tegeler, arguing earlier this year that Germany's sex self-ID law did not go far enough, and ought to be altered to allow men to enter women's saunas.
Reem Alsalem UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women and Girls (@UNSRVAW):

"I express my deep concern regarding the reported negative effects that this new legislation could have on the rights of women and girls in Germany.

Also, I would like to remind the Government of Your Excellency that, in accordance with its obligations under the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, States Parties shall be held accountable if they do not take all appropriate measures to prevent, investigate, prosecute, punish, and offer reparation for acts or omissions by state and non-state actors that lead to gender-based violence against women."

The entire purpose of the linguistic sleight-of-hand involved in the term "gender dysphoria" is to normalize and depathologize male sexual fetishism.

"Transgender" turns every single major paraphilia in diagnostic literature into a protected identity. Image
The very first wedge used in diagnostic literature - by sexologists and psychiatrists - was to claim that men who masturbated wearing the stolen clothing of women was not a sexual act, but an identity crisis.

That men who were absorbed in BDSM, in making themselves into torture porn, scenes that reflect what they are aroused by seeing done to women, was not sexual in nature, but an expression of themselves.

This wedge, detailed in the DSM-4, allowed every other paraphilia to fall under the dominant category of gender identity or dysphoria - the category that is now regarded as not a sexual pathology, but an inborn trait, an identity.

All the while, there has been the knowledge that paraphilias rarely ever appear in isolation - they overlap.

So now, every major sexual pathology gets to hide under the "skirt" of gender dysphoria.Image
Image
"Transvestic fetishism is not diagnosed when crossdressing occurs exclusively during the course of Gender Identity Disorder".

This diagnostic recommendation, used to excuse an obvious sexual behavior intrinsically linked to sadomasochism, and to further escalation of fetishism - which can result in criminal sexual offending - was the only door that needed to be opened to allow all forms of paraphilias, even pedophilia, to fall under a protective "umbrella" of sexual identity - rather than as a potentially dangerous pathology.

Why did it happen?

Precisely because the abuse involved in transvestic fetishism is directed primarily at women, and therefore invisible.

To this day, Ray Blanchard, who coined "autogynephilia", agrees with this assessment from the DSM-4: that an explicit male fetish for misogyny is simply an identity crisis.
