Something is very very wrong

Women been oppressed as a class throughout time and across the globe because of our biological sex. The hard won rights that have been fought for by generations of women are at serious risk of being completely eroded overnight by manipulating reality through language.

I care about this because I care about all women and I also care about all the young gay boys and lesbians who feel transitioning is a way out of homosexuality. I care about the young women who hate their bodies and are being encouraged to mutilate them.

I care about all the children who are now being told that they have some magical essence of gender that exists on a spectrum between GI Joe and Barbie. Will my nephews be told they might be girls if they wear pink??

I cannot and do not talk about this issue with anyone other than those closest too me, namely my mum and sister. I do not engage online as I would lose my job I am certain. Maybe not overnight, but it would happen eventually.

4 years ago I moved from London to a small rural town where I run a community arts and entertainment venue

This issue is so contentious and comes from such a conservative starting point but is masked as liberalism that I know my view would be considered hateful, improper and bigoted despite everything else I hold dear and am active and vocal about demonstrating the opposite.

It’s just incredibly dangerous and in a world where I’m setting up an anonymous twitter account and shaking doing it simply to state that biological sex is real and to ‘like’ a tweet without fear of losing my job, something is very very wrong!

I dare not speak out.  But, things are changing in my work and I fear that soon I will have to and I genuinely don’t know what will happen then.

My daughter told me aged 13 that she thought she was a boy

I care about this because my daughter told me aged 13 that she thought she was a boy.

I am a journalist so have explored the issue in media coverage. I do not feel able to voice a public opinion.

I have had a negative response from colleagues who think I should not question the evidence base for medical interventions on children and young people who say they are the “wrong sex”.

I see girls being told that there is something fundamentally wrong with them,

I care because I see girls being told that there is something fundamentally wrong with them, at a time when they should be being encouraged to explore themselves and come to like and love themselves. What’s worse is that they are also being put on a path to unnecessary and hugely damaging medication and surgery. I also care because I believe the truth – and freedom to talk the truth – matters. I should not have to refer to a man as “she” or vice versa, any more than I should have to refer to a white person as black.

At the moment, I have not done much; I have discussed with friends and a few colleagues at work. I have refused to fill in diversity questionnaires because they ask what gender I was assigned at birth, without giving me the option to say that I was not assigned a gender at birth. I have written to the organiser explaining why I could not fill it in and asking that the questionnaire be amended to allow me to fill it in. I have contributed funds towards people taking legal action to prevent the medicalisation of children.

I have been deliberately low key about my views so far.

I was in shock at single biggest attack on womens rights in my lifetime. How did I not know?

I fell into this rabbit hole in Oct 2018. I knew straight off that some well meaning teacher would have had my 10 year old self in a binder, steered towards hormones, fed a load of dangerous ideas. I was in shock at single biggest attack on womens rights in my lifetime. How did I not know? The mainstreaming of  pseudo science, of pink brains in blue bodies, with it’s attendant State sanctioned mutilation of children. Has everyone gone collectively  barmy?

I started looking into it properly from Oct 2018. Playing catch up. I accumulated 1000s of reference links & screen shots.I’ve not stopped talking or posting about Transgenderism since. I know I’ve grown awareness in my own friendship networks and community networks, I did a lot of explaining amongst my local muslim contacts online. Kept encouraging them to start talking about it in their family groups. Transgender Trend stuff was really helpful.  I challenged supporters of No Outsiders when parents were protesting. Activists MPs & TU people.

Virtue signallers were all over Brum social media. How many had read it? I’m still regularly tweeting Jess Phillips with #childsafeguarding.  I found Gender Critical Green Party members, I’d have left the party if I hadn’t. We’re trying to get a GP womens rights policy agreed. Got Lab friends to raise issue in their local branch & nationally: working on getting the Lab Wom Declaration passed at branch.   Culture: Chased up Barber Institute re Drag Queen Story Hour & Coronation St, long story.  Written regularly to MSM. Signed petitions. Written to MPs. Donated to crowd fundraisers. Put up stickers. Bought Tshirts. Supported others. Been able to offer words of comfort & experience, especially to younger campaigners, who get caught up with vicious eejits online.

Don’t let them waste your time & energy or rent space free in your head. Age has its advantages.

Been called: bigot, shameful, told I’ll be dead soon anyway because I’m old, accused of fighting a phony war. Dropped by numerous online ‘friend’s & political group pages. All a bit hurtful, especially at first. But seeing what’s happened to others has really boiled my piss. I’ve nothing to lose. I’ve no career or reputation. My true friends are just that, true. So I’ve been fearless in speaking up & out. For all those confused misled  kids who can’t and for whom this is urgent. For all the women who are more vulnerable than I. Sanity must prevail.

Abuse in plain sight

Women’s sex based rights and what’s happening to confused children, which in my opinion is abuse in plain sight.

I’ve spoken out on social media, spoken out to friends at work. Written to my MP (who I know disagrees with me), raised it with other MPs when I’ve seen unfair things happen.

I’ve been called a terf, bigot, right winged, old out of touch woman, all the usual stuff.

I’m also very concerned about children being seduced into the trans cult

This matters to me because I care about women’s rights. I’m also very concerned about children being seduced into the trans cult. I am opposed to the notion of ‘gender identity’, in particular that it is being taught in schools. It’s unscientific and I believe it’s child abuse to teach children that there is such a thing and to confuse them with these ideas.

I am quite vocal on Twitter. I talk a lot to my family and friends. I have three step-children. I have made them all aware that their children may be taught about ‘gender identity’ in school along with inappropriate sex education. I emailed Keir Starmer, my MP, before the last election asking him where he stood on this (no reply). I’ve recently had an email conversation with Baroness Nicholson.

I am anonymous on Twitter and I am very careful about other social media. I would never discuss this on Facebook, for example, because I work in publishing and many of my Facebook friends I know through work. It would negatively impact my work if my views were known, I think.

I care about women’s boundaries

I care about women’s boundaries in prisons, changing rooms, etc. I also am against children being taught that gender stereotypes are more important that sex.

I have got rape and death threats in social media.

Most of the people I talk to about trans activism just can’t fathom that some people genuinely believe that transwomen are women

I care because the end result of gender ideology will hurt women by depriving them of any word to describe themselves, of the right to self-organise and gather without the presence of men, and of the right to decide who’s allowed to touch them and see them naked.

I also care because I’m deeply concerned about the fact that a tiny minority of activists who hold incredibly fringe views could so easily manage to garner enormous support within academia and political parties in a very short time.

To me the ideas that sex is a colonial construct, that people like Danielle Muscato can be legally female or that some men bare children sound absolutely ridiculous and surreal, and I’m very worried that so many people in high places have decided to comply with them with no hesitation whatsoever.

I’ve talked about this to virtually every person I know in my life (and some of them have talked about it to their own acquaintances afterwards), I’ve shared my thoughts on Twitter, I’ve also written some sort of paper that sums up the issue with a lot of references that I usually send to people who express an interest in the subject, and I’ve tried to get in touch with people who have a little bit more influence to try and open their eyes on this particular topic.

On Twitter I got the usual vitriol from TRAs on some occasions. In real life however, I’ve never been subjected to any form of abuse because of my take on this issue. I don’t run in progressive circles, I don’t know anyone remotely woke, none of my friends and relatives would dispute the fact that only women have periods. I woke up to this insanity very recently, precisely because I hadn’t been exposed to it at all prior to my year abroad in Vancouver. However, even if my views are largely shared within my circle, I don’t always manage to make people realise that something bad is going on.

Most of the people I talk to about trans activism just can’t fathom that some people genuinely believe that transwomen are women and that sex is a spectrum, and they simply think I’m paranoid and exaggerating and it’s only a few weirdos on the Internet that have no influence in real life.

The idea of a toddler being declared ‘trans’ in the wrong body is dangerous and wrong

I care because Gender ideology has been surreptitiously adopted into public policy without scrutiny. It is based on fantasy and poses a clear threat to women’s rights, their safety and the safeguarding of children.

I have no issue with people wishing to adopt gender non conforming identities but not at the expense of reality, of women and children. The idea of a toddler being declared ‘trans’ in the wrong body is dangerous and wrong. 

Many of the people taking advantage of this trend are nothing like the transsexual people the GRA was designed for. They include fetishists, misogynists and predators  both sexual and political with an eye to the main chance.

I have joined a pressure group, explained to Labour why they have lost my vote and attended meetings. I have contributed and shared legal fee crowd funders  

I have had my twitter account closed down for referring to a person with a male name and an ambiguous face as ‘he’.
