Yesterday at the science rally I met a @ucdavis biology grad student who is a detransitioner.

She was put on testosterone when she was a young teen girl.

She says it’s unfortunate she was medicalized but it was a necessary part of her journey.

She hoped we could destigmatize detransitioning.

Her sign read: “Science SAVED MY LIFE you might be next…”

Here is a Reddit post on r/ucdavis about me and my signs. It’s promising to see others at @ucdavis questioning gender medicine and supporting my free speech to express my views.

Spotted on the @ucdavis campus last night:

“DEATH BEFORE DETRANSITION! ⚧️ Don’t like us? Go fu@k yourself.”

This was in the front window of the LGBTQIA Resource Center. So much for being “inclusive” and welcoming to all.

This is so wrong. Next week @ucdavis will begin a $5M renovation project at the ARC campus recreation center to remove the women’s and men’s sex-segregated locker rooms to create one big “Universal Locker Room” that is “inclusive of members of all gender identities.”

The Reddit thread on r/UCDavis has the type of arguments you would expect when women ask for female-only spaces. 🧵

Female student at @ucdavis expresses her concern “Women already have to worry about the men looking at them when they are working out, and adding men to their locker room is just wrong.”

Here is the Reddit post with comments: reddit.com/r/UCDavis/s/lp…

@ucdavis Good to see women students pushing back. It’s too bad women’s rights to safety, privacy and dignity were never a consideration by the @ucdavis design team.

Last week a breast cancer survivor was meeting with her plastic surgeon to discuss implants when she spotted this flyer for “bottom surgery” in the exam room at the University of Cincinnati Med Center.

Using the QR code, I answered the survey pretending to be a nonbinary college-age student.

What I discovered is this survey is nothing but a recruitment tool for these ghoulish surgeons to perform unnecessary hysterectomies, oophorectomies, phalloplasties, “penile prostheses” on confused women.🧵

1/ Survey begins with the purpose of the survey. “Your perspectives will help shape gender-inclusive and gender-expansive considerations in patient care.”

2/ Were you “assigned” female at birth?

Huge news for protecting girls’ sports in California🚨🚨

Yesterday the US Dept of Education Office of Civil Rights annouced it is launching an investigation into @CIFState, the governing body for high school sports in California, for refusing to comply with Title IX.

Could this mean no more gaslighting girls and lying to vulnerable boys about biological reality??

Here are my receipts for this state-sanctioned psychological abuse of children. 🧵

2/ Back in 2012, @CIFState introduced their “Gender Identity Participation" policies which were modeled after Washington state (@wiaawi) who had collaborated in 2009 with @wpath (World professional association for transgender health), a major lobbying group for the tran$ gender medical industry.

In 2011, it was Assemblyman Tom Ammiano (D-San Francisco), the first openly gay politician in CA, who sponsored AB 266 which required CA schools to allow students to play on sports teams according to their "gender identity" and not their biological sex.

3/ @CIFState originally proposed there would be an "individualized review process that would allow school districts to access a state-wide review panel.”

The panel would consist of 5 members, including (1) a physician with gender identity health care and WPATH experience, (2) a psychiatrist or mental health professional with WPATH Standards of Care, (3) a school administrator, (4) a CIF staff member, and (5) advocate familiar with gender identity and expression issues.

“This panel would ensure that STUDENTS NOT IN TRANSITION could not attempt to use this issue as an avenue to participate in sports."

From all my public records request (PRA) responses, I don’t believe CIF actually ever used this state-wide review panel and instead allowed students to self-identify as transgender without any proof of “transition.”

Two years ago today, my friends Erin Friday and Allie Snyder and I held a demonstration in front of my daughter's high school here in Davis, California. We were protesting the school district, @DJUSD, hosting a lecture that evening with a crazy trans activist, Rachel Pepper, to hawk her book “The Transgender Child."

It was an incredible day. I didn't want my daughter to recognize me, so I wore a disguise. Some students burst into tears, others looked confused as they read our signs questioning the trans narrative, while a few brave souls came over and thanked us for being there. Here is what we learned that day. 🧵

We learned there are many courageous, articulate women in CA who are willing and eager to show their faces in public and speak to why this ideology is so dangerous.

And our right to free speech is something we should never take for granted. The First Amendment allowed us to assemble on the sidewalk in front of the high school, and speak freely. Signs with simple language and well-designed banners are very effective in conveying a message. Even an umbrella can get your message across, as @ThePosieParker says "Be the billboard."

We learned that young people, including trans-identified kids, will not fall apart when they see adults pushing back on gender madness. I found it amusing to watch the Davis High principal, vice-principals, teachers, and counselors all put on a show for the students that they were there to protect the kids from the “transphobic" parents, and yet many students approached us and wanted to have a conversation.
