1/ There is no "moderate" trans position, what there is instead is a cynical political repositioning forced on TRAs by reason of complete political defeat. As ever, it is really a demand, a demand we all forget the worst excesses of this dangerous, intolerant movement. It's a con 2/ There is no reasonable middle ground in the number of autistic/effeminate boys to be castrated. There is no half way point in the number of female prisoners you are prepared to put at risk of state approved rape. There is no percentage of acceptable cancellations.

1/ The modern, identitarian, chemically castrate your child type "left wingers" are in fact a consumerist schism in right wing politics, the only real dispute is whether you have a body as commodity or you believe in a body politic. There's nothing authentically left wing here 2/ Modern "left wingers" seem to care more for the identity de jour and the maintenance of their social media status than they do for the hard work of classic Marxism or making a moral case for the evils of poverty and the reality of class exploitation.

1/ An AGP who seeks out disgust as part of his fetish can hardly complain when he meets it. This is the paraphilic panopticon I'm afraid, your disgust is actually what he wants and your manifestation of it part of his enjoyment. Humiliation fetish is an essential part of gender. 2/ I'm afraid this means to some extent there is no way out other that return to a Dr Hakeem sensible analysis of the role of post-mass consumption of pornography paraphilias. Dr. Hakeem asked whether a paraphilic nudist would be permitted to cross dress at work and our reaction

1/ If you want to understand the modern day you have to understand the primacy of aesthetics, or more accurately visuals over the word.

The modern child has seen a million more images than his parents, the modern world is visual and relies on porn as a dominant aesthetic. Image 2/ It should be enough in the puberty blockers debate to say "Don't give those to your child, they harm bone density, cognitive function and social ability"

The compelling answer politically has been "But he'll look more like a woman" - an aesthetic / cosmetic response.

1/ The Secretary of State for Health Wes Streeting MP has extended his predecessor's ban on the private provision of puberty blockers and has worked with Northern Irish Authorities to ensure Ulster cannot be used as a backdoor to poisoning children. This is a hopeful moment. Image 2/ Victoria Atkins properly introduced this ban in the teeth of fierce opposition and a judicial review threat from the Good Laugh Project. It is to her credit she did so and to Wes Streeting's credit he supported it. This is sensible governance.

1/ In a era where you watch a remake of a remake of a superhero movie, it's apt the gender emerges as the ultimate empty political recursion, it claims to be a repeat of gay rights because repeat is what it does, whether that's memes, mantras or downloaded identities. It's empty. 2/ This is why it has to backwards engineer itself into existence, it's why the very much intact AGP implausibly insists he would have had puberty blockers and that gay (mainly girls) must take them, it's why they say gays didn't win gay rights robbing us of history.

1/ Allow me to introduce you to the "Forstater Paradox" which is what I call a profound legal problem with any conversion legislation. It works like this. Following the case of her name, you have a civil right to not believe in gender identity ideology. 2/ Your expressions of that belief, in law, are a "protected characteristic" under the Equality Act 2010. There's some debate about what sort of expressions cross the line into unacceptable, but the basic point is you have a right to disbelief.

1/ Change indeed. Well. That's the end of the gender wars. Or at least the most important part of it. Cass happened and a man who once promised Pink News he would introduce self-ID has now bothered to read the policy and realised it's isn't just a bolt on gay rights photo op. Image 2/ Here be dragons huh. So where are you now? Is this Canada mark 2 and gendergeddon on the horizon, or is the ground shifting, are we the lucky nation who will avoid the worst of gender madness as political happenstance and healthy British discord mitigate against disaster?

1/ This is progress apparently. The naïve utopia of gender's answer to Rumpelstiltskin in which we can breezily theorise away the cold hard realities of crime statistics or the reality of what really happens when you put a male rapist in a woman's prison. She'll never face such 2/ In a sentence, Butler casually advocates for abolishing single sex spaces and patronisingly urges Amanda to think more. This is pretty seismic of course, Butler is literally arguing against female and homosexual political assembly or demarcated social or political spaces.

1/ Screaming Lord Cashman, senior gendocrat among Vichy gays and not a man troubled with a restless intellect goes for James. It's all faux concern with a sting in the tail and a swipe at talent. This is rich coming from someone who played "the acceptable gay" on EastEnders 2/ Apart from crimes against poetry and mindlessly repeating crap slogans that never catch on other than by us mocking them ("together, only together" anyone?), Cashman's contributions to the gender wars have been to be the anti-gay forces most bovine and moderately useful peer

1/ It's the height of luxury to write off perfectly legitimate and fundamental policy concerns as a "culture war". Whether a child has their puberty blocked or Helen Webberley gives them a potentially fatal dose of testosterone is not a culture war.

huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/exclusiv… 2/ It's a desperately serious matter. The sitting President of the Family Division certainly thought so in Re J. He's not a man given to hyperbole and his view was this "culture war" could easy accrue a teenage girl into its no doubt growing body count.

1/ The former Gay Rights movement has nothing to be proud of. In this country and globally it's wrought a terrible schism in it's own community, it's poisoned the next generation of gays with puberty blockers and cross sex hormones and it's morphed into an authoritarian cult. 2/ There can't be many political movements who have so decisively turned on their own. Most egregiously, warnings of homophobia in gender medicine were not just completely ignored, the former gay rights movement has tried to silence and cancel those doing the job it should have.

1/ It's not my intention to be harsh on John or anyone else taking up a rainbow lanyards after Esther McVey is getting rid of them, but I do want to make some points about how some of us gay people feel about them which I hope will be given a hearing. 2/ First I say this. Particularly in an NHS context a rainbow lanyard would have had some use circa 1984. Back when no one was game to wear them or even touch some of us on AIDS wards, they could have been a great sign of support in a tough world. But they weren't worn.

1/ Quite a thing is it not? The greatest enemy gay rights ever really had was the gay rights movement. What plastic phalanxes these were, those who cowered in the shadow of the rainbow, their greatest enemy themselves, but so cowardly they visited their hate on others. 2/ This is the bitter harvest of gay rights. At some point we'll have to set our mind to why lesbians called other lesbians "sexual racists" or why gay men called other gay men "genital fetishists" and promised they would hypothetically sleep with a trans man, which was not true

1/ Well. I did try to tell you Humza. Gender did for Sturgeon and now it's finally done for you. You wouldn't be warned of course, too busy calling your opponents bigots and far right, a terrible habit you both picked up from the Greens. Yet it was the Greens who did for you both

2/ A government falls when it slides into absurdity. Now for Sturgeon this was the famous interview over Adam the meaty rapist where she, so blinded by gender, couldn't bring herself to say he was a man, we were told instead of a new third sex of "rapist"

1/ Dear Trans Rights movement,

I have decided, on balance, not to sleep with women. Whether such women have undergone various surgeries, taken hormones or genuinely believe themselves to be men, their belief is no match for my reality. I require a male body in a partner 2/ I don’t wish to be unkind to such women but I must introduce you to a concept. I am what is known as a “homosexual”, this word in my case connotes a male who only experiences attraction to other males. As such your demands are unreasonable.

1/🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

On puberty blockers, the FM's first thought is the failing child sex change outfit @stonewalluk

""I believe that er, as Stonewall has said, if there are some recommendations that are implemented properly that this could make a difference to young people’s healthcare" 2/ This is a disaster for Scottish gay/autistic youth. While Hunt begs forgiveness in the Times as she rewrites her part in this scandal, he invokes the Stonewall she created. The Stonewall that ushered in the chemical and surgical correction of kids.

1/ @PeterTatchell, I want to address some comments to you and shall do so as politely as the circumstances that obtain now permit me.

What you are doing here is advocating for chemical homophobic violence by gender medicine to be visited on the weakest there are you stupid fool. 2/ Let's see if we can get facts through your stupid thick head shall we? Recent research indicates "puberty blockers" cause testicular atrophy and increased cancer risk in boys

Understand Peter? Defenceless boys with avoidable cancer in their balls

1/ When gay children abandoned to gender needed Stonewall to stand up for them, Ruth Hunt wasn't even absent from her post, it was worse than that. She conspired against them, joined and led enemy forces and today she sets out her defence. But this prosecution is overwhelming. Image 2/ I remark in passing Stonewall could have stopped the Tavistock scandal at any time. At the height of its power, had Stonewall agreed with Dr Bell, Sue Evans, Marcus Evans, Sonia Appleby it would have ended. These heroes stood up for gay youth, Ruth Hunt stood against them.

1/ Dr Cass’s review leaves no room for doubt that Tavistock clinicians were correct when they said “it feels like a new form of gay conversion therapy” and the joked “soon there will be no gay people left”. Children thought to be gay were subject to medical experiments. 2/ Dr Cass’ report is of global significance and it makes clear that gender medicine is built on a false consensus. From the “Dutch protocol” to the “eunuch archive” castration fetishists connected to WPATH revealed by G. Gluck, this was not medicine, it was something darker

1/ There is an obnoxious and laughably false SNP defence line doing the rounds suggesting the Scottish Hate Crime mess is merely bringing Scotland "into line" with laws in England and Wales. I want to dispatch this falsehood in this thread with reference to the text of the acts Image 2/ The first thing to say about the Scottish Act is that is has no direct parallel to an English & Welsh statute in respect of the list of protected characteristics it covers. In England the equivalent offences are available only for race, religion, sexual orientation. Image
