1./ How did this scandal happen?
How did an 8 year old girl in this clip from @libsoftiktok end up injected with a drug invented to treat prostate cancer in old men? Let me tell you how fake science turned her hospital in Boston into a Ground Zero of this medical disaster.
1/18
2. The girl was treated at the Gender Management Service (GeMS) Clinic at Boston Children's Hospital. The clinic was founded in 2007 by Norman Spack, an endocrinologist, or hormone specialist. He was on a hormone mission ever since witnessing a trial in Holland a few years before
3./ In the mid 90s doctors there began giving a small group of teens GnRH agonists or puberty blockers to "pause" puberty. Spack now advocated for this to be embraced globally. He ignored the flaws of the trial, dissected here brilliantly by Michael Biggs.
4./ There had been no animal trials, nor human trials with a control group. Success was wildly exaggerated. The first patient (B) was revealed later to be deeply depressed and suicidal. Spack seemed more struck with how the kids looked; which he describes here as ...beautiful!🤔
5./ Despite a lack of evidence to back puberty blockers Spack stated openly he was "salivating" to start using them on kids. He got the chance when he was appointed as the first head of the GeMS clinic in Boston. He could now salivate as much as he liked. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
6./ Spack didn't stop there. In 2013 he wrote the Endocrine Society's Transgender Guidelines so that they now advocated puberty blockers. It was seen as "an attitudinal shift to be able to say the Endocrine Society supports this." It was milked mercilessly endocrinenews.endocrine.org/blocking-puber…
7./ The guidelines would continually be quoted as medical gospel and feature in the Keira Bell case. Yet how carefully had they been drawn up? In a @TEDTalks lecture Spack himself admitted he breached them when treating the son of Susie Green, CEO of UK trans charity Mermaids.
8./ Spack admits he "did something a little bit innovative". Innovative? He gave cross-sex hormones to her 13 year old. He then helped arranged the boy's castration in Thailand at 16; an age illegal in the UK & US. If you're thinking this is all rather Wild West you'd be right.
9./ Spack justified this medical abuse with reference to nothing more scientific than a posed magazine cover of twin boys. He said the difference between the boy who is going through puberty and the twin he treated with blockers "says it all". Here's why it doesn't.
10./ The Cass Review confirms the vast majority of gender dysphoric kids find their dysphoria dissipates or disappears once they go through puberty. The boy on the left has had this stolen from him. Isn't there something creepy about how Spack describes his brother's puberty?
11./ My theory is that some of these lunatic doctors have convinced themselves they're saving effeminate boys from the nightmare of becoming adult men. The truth is manhood includes effeminate, sensitive men too. Boys like this also have an inalienable right to fully become men.
12./ Spack's ludicrous defence of puberty blockers was that they were the only alternative to giving cross-sex hormones. "We can't just give those to 10-12 year olds" Why not? "Because they can't possibly understand the consequences of infertility". Have you spotted the problem?
13./ 99% of kids on puberty blockers move onto cross-sex hormones thus rendering them sterile. Spack and his fellow ghouls who created this pharmaceutical Ghost Train to sterility justified it because they claimed any kid who said they were trans knew themselves absolutely.🤦♂️
14./ In his @TEDTalks Spack justifies all this by wilfully exaggerating the risks from suicide. Yet even at the time the Tavistock's Polly Carmichael was on the record saying "trans kids" are at no greater risk of suicide than kids with mental health issues such as bulimia."
15./ If there's ever a Nurnberg Trial for Gender Ghouls Spack should be arraigned. He travelled the world championing child sterilisation. In London in 2016, he led a Mermaids conference in singing 'The Times are a Changing'. They're changing back, mate. theguardian.com/society/2016/n…
16./ Spack inspired the child-abusing charity Mermaids which then advised the addled parents of poor Jaron (Jazz) Jennings. Jazz was castrated and put through surgical hell like this in a fruitless attempt to mimic being female. This is what real conversion practices look like.
17./ Every clinician at the Boston Hospital sterilising an 8 year old girl deserves to be in jail. They may have been assisted by a media and politicians who have lost their marbles. But like Spack no one forced them to prescribe the drugs. No one forced them to ruin young lives.

1./ The SNP, Misogyny and Helena Kennedy
3 years ago I said it was inevitable the SNP would make a hash of their Misogyny Bill and include men (transwomen) in their proposed law. The reason? Helena Kennedy is immersed in trans ideology. The evidence? 👉 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
2./ In a thread then I showed how Kennedy lavished praise in a series of LGBT+ events on Roz Kaveney, Peter Tatchell and other trans rights fanatics such as Naomi Wolf. Kennedy described Wolf as a good friend. How close a friend soon became clear. 👉
3./ At one event Kennedy chaired, Wolf spoke out against single sex spaces, railing against how the Far Right was allegedly engineering a moral panic about them. This was identical, she said, to 'gay panics' in the past. Cue applause from Plonk Noos.👇 thepinknews.com/2020/11/28/nao…
1./ Ruth Hunt is a Bit of a Cult.
You have to hand it to Stonewall's ex-CEO, Ruth Hunt. She really knows how to lie. In her interview she claims Stonewall merely "listened to the experts" and cites one in particular. Why is this a lie?
1/of 15 👉 thetimes.co.uk/article/fe117e…
2./ Hunt names Polly Carmichael from the Tavistock. But for all her faults, Carmichael actually said of prescribing puberty blockers, "it would be disingenuous to say it is fully reversible." Yet Stonewall even today maintains blockers are reversible. thetimes.co.uk/article/childr…
3./ Despite them being banned by NHS England and after a new study from the Mayo Clinic indicates they seriously damage the testicles of boys and may lead to cancer, Stonewall still says blockers are reversible Listened to experts? This is far from Hunt's only lie.
1./ The Biggest Lie About the Cass Report
This video is just one source that claims the trans lobby has long supported the holistic mental health approach that Cass now recommends. This is a lie. Let me tell you the real story of the trans lobby's attitude to mental health.
2./ 25 years ago the trans lobby began a campaign to dilute and remove references to mental health in trans healthcare. A particular target was the Standards of Care of the global trans healthcare organisation WPATH and its predecessor HBIGDA. Why did trans activists do this?
3./ Up to 1998 the Standards of Care included a prominent warning (Principle 1) that sex reassignment "may be requested by persons experiencing short-term delusions or beliefs which may later be changed and reversed." It urged psychiatric oversight. The trans lobby hated that.
1. The Biggest Idiot?
Many foolish politicians enabled the harm to vulnerable children which the Cass Review has now exposed. None did so with the enthusiasm of John Nicolson MP who went to court to back Mermaids, the child-harming charity that promoted puberty blockers.
1 of 13
2./ Nicolson appeared as a witness when Mermaids tried to have the charitable status of @AllianceLGB removed. This despite the fact that one of the Trustees of Mermaids at the time, Jacob Breslow, published a book and spoke at a pro-paedophile conference. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-631378…
3./ You'd think Nicolson might have bothered to check the views of the Trustees of a charity for which he offered legal testimony. In his book Breslow tells of how horny he became as a 12 year old "queer child" gyrated in an "exhilarating" sexualised performance in front of him.
1./ Why do LGB oppose TQ+
Why do lesbians and their gay male brothers get upset by the sort of LGBTQ+ placards on show in Edinburgh urging lesbians to "love dick"? It's just the latest example of the trans lobby's open contempt for homosexuality. 1/ of 7
2./ The core idea at the heart of the modern trans project is summed up here by a trans activist at Brighton Pride: "if gender is on a spectrum then homosexuality doesn't really exist". This argument made it into a tax-payer funded film celebrating 50 years of Pride. 🤦♂️
3./ Let me be clear I don't feel any animus towards trans people trying to get on with their lives. I filmed for months with the fabulous April Ashley for a series for ITV. I never thought April was a woman but used his preferred pronouns. I would not do that now. Why not?
1./ An LGBTQ+ Reckoning
If you want a defining moment in the story of the self-destruction of what was once the gay rights movement this is as good as any. @TheAdvocateMag showcases a mentally deluded and ghoulish man who thinks he’s a woman. Who he?👉 advocate.com/news/rachel-le…
2./ “Rachel” Levine has spoken about how glad he is he waited to be sterilised because he was able to have kids. Yet as a top health official in the Biden regime this mini-me Mengele promotes drugs that lead to the sterilisation of teenagers. They’ll never be able to be parents.
3./ Not all these troubled teens are gay but many are and so a leading “gay” mag has ended up advocating for the sterilisation of thousands of young lesbians and gays. The founders of our movement would turn in their graves. Their earliest campaign was to stop medicalising gays.
