Breaking: @UN_Women says gender-critical activists are an “anti-rights movement” 🧵

@DerryBanShee in @thetimes:

“It’s a sad day when UN Women lectures women’s rights campaigners on the need to include men with transgender identities in our work.”

thetimes.com/uk/society/art…
In an Insta post, UN Women claims that “anti-rights movements” – its deceptive label for sex-based rights campaigners – are on the rise Image
UN Women claims campaigners are putting “the lives of LGBTIQ+ people at risk” – a dangerous and irresponsible statement that has been refuted time after time Image
UN Women also says women’s-rights campaigners use “hateful propaganda and disinformation to target LGBTIQ+ people”.... Image
… and that opponents of gender-identity ideology “falsely portray” the rights of LGBTIQ+ people as competing with women’s rights Image
UN Women absurdly denies that “trans women” – men who ID as women – can pose a threat to the rights, spaces and safety of “cisgender” women Image
UN Women signposts followers to an “explainer” that is full of gender-identity propaganda and misinformation:

unwomen.org/en/news-storie…
“Trans rights” – men’s demands to ID as women – are obviously incompatible with women’s rights. To conceal this, UN Women conflates the absurd claim that people can change sex with rights for LGB people
It is outrageous to call women’s-rights campaigners opposing a global tidal wave of gender-identity ideology an “anti-rights movement”. UN Women does NOT stand up for women

BREAKING: #CassReview @TheCassReview demolishes the basis for the current model of treating gender-distressed children.

#CassReview finds no evidence supporting the use of puberty blockers. She reminds GPs and pharmacists of their responsibilities too.

This is the end of paediatric gender medicine as we know it. Read @SexMattersOrg post.

#CassReview is damning of GIDS.

GIDs did not cooperate with #CassReview attempt to survey practice.

The state of its medical notes is shocking, and not in line with @gmcuk guidance. #Page137 Image

Update from Maya!

On Monday, I went to an event at University College London, together with Shelley Charlesworth from Transgender Trend. Professor Davina Cooper was presenting on the findings of the Future of Legal Gender research project… Image
…which received £750,000 in public funding from the Economic and Social Research Council.
Cooper talked about how the project had set out with big ambitions to influence government policy to “decertify” sex and gender, but by the time it ended she was framing it somewhat despondently in terms of envisioning “utopias”.

He discovered the Tavistock’s trial and started publishing on this in March 2019 with @Transgendertrd Trend.

BREAKING: Senior figures across NHS and UK medical bodies disavow WPATH's approach to gender medicine.

#WPATH "Standards of Care" have shaped NHS policy and doctors practice for decades.

@mailonline #WPATHfiles

- Bernadette Wren, Director at the Tavi told parliament treatment protocols are based on WPATH "almost universally observed in Europe.”
- NHS’s Contract for GIDS repeatedly refers to WPATH SOC up to 2024
- Sandyford clinic in Scotland tells adult patients: “Your treatment will be monitored & run in accordance w WPATH SOC ”
- @gmcuk @TheBMA @rcpsych informed by WPATH standards
-Gendered Intelligence, Mermaids, Stonewall and GIRES promote WPATH as the only acceptable approach.
