Compelling by @hannahsbee. There’s evidence of bone health, thinking skills & future fertility risks “especially if young people go on to cross sex hormones”. So why are 256 physically healthy 8-13 year olds to be trialled on PBs instead of studying 9000 former Gids patients?

Also it’s so grim that in 2025 we have a union leader talking about children “going prostituting”. And does else think the perpetrators of child rape might be a “root cause” of the harm?!

On The World Tonight on @BBCRadio4: “Girls and young women who identify as trans will no longer be allowed to join the GirlGuiding organisation”. No. Wrong. Boys who identify as girls won’t be allowed. All girls are welcome even if they say they’re trans. @JournalismSEEN

An interesting take from barrister Naomi Cunningham at our October ‘Defining Sex’ event with @MerchedCymru 👇 Employers take note. If you provide training that tells female employees they must share private facilities with men you could be liable for 'bulk harassment claims'.

The puberty blockers trial is an appalling Joseph-Mengele-style exercise which will have profound implications for the physical and emotional wellbeing of over 200 children. Our kids are not guinea pigs. Please support this demonstration.

Any male who does not understand why some parents may object to their involvement in their child’s intimate care is plainly unsuitable for Early Years. They are prioritising their own feelings of rejection above the needs/wants of children and their families.

Exactly. If trans identifying men are allowed to use women's spaces, why not any other small subset of men? Men under 5 foot 2? Men born on a particular date? Or maybe any men at all, but only on alternate Tuesdays? (Top marks as well for the use of 'discombobulating'.)

The level of motivated innumeracy here is discombobulating. The judge seems to be arguing that males who identity as women should be admitted to women's toilets because there aren't very many of them, and therefore they will only be responsible for a small proportion of
