How long have the @BBCNews @BBCNewsbeat @cbbc been promoting the concept of a trans child, and both social & medical transition for very young children? What role did the @cbbc documentary ”I Am Leo" play in all this? A 🧵 spanning 2014-2017 1/26

The myth of the "trans community". The trans community is not a coherent community at all. It is an inexplicably broad demographic containing both vulnerable and dangerous people. Here's my attempt to classify the various groups. A 🧵 1/18

It’s good to see that gyms are no longer willing to break the law. r/transgenderUK is a great way of observing the restoration of women’s rights.

A 46 year old man decides to cross dress, and then swiftly takes a 'best actress' award from a woman. Can women really not have anything for themselves?

6 months ago, Laura Snapes wrote that Róisín Murphy's album had an "ugly stain" as she'd spoken out against the experimental use of puberty blockers on kids. 6 months later, the treatment was banned by the NHS, citing a lack of evidence. Róisín was right. theguardian.com/music/2023/sep…

Trans children. An entirely coerced, mythical group of under 18s. These children cannot possibly understand nor consent to this, and shouldn't be affirmed. Tales of two year old trans children are absurd and dangerous. This is profound child abuse and must end immediately. 2/18

Any cross-dressing man who wants to work part time in a women's DV refuge should be treated with suspicion. Good on them for removing him. Decent men know they're not wanted there. Never forget that Stonewall wanted single sex exceptions removed from the equality act.

Will this kind of behaviour qualify as extreme misogyny?

Trans identified male Lucy Clark becomes the first trans manager of a women's team. He then pulls fellow male Blair Hamilton into the team. Hamilton then co-authors a paper rejecting sex testing for sports. Total male dominance over women.

“Dr Beth Upton” is a fictional character, invented only two years ago. His actual name is #TheoUpton, and he is a man.

Here's the moment @BBCNews journalists falsely portrayed the male murderer Scarlet Blake (also known as Fangze Wang and later Alice Wang) as a woman, to millions of UK viewers. Remarkably, their previous story reached out to fact checkers BBC Verify..but were somehow not deemed

This is my favourite bit of the Kathleen Stock Vs Deirdre McCloskey discussion: McCloskey's concept of womanhood calmly dismantled in seconds, the silence that follows is pure gold.

Following a complaint I made about the nappy fetishist, @BBCNews have altered the article to reveal his real name, Martin Tarling, upfront - a detail omitted entirely in the initial article. This should be the standard approach for any stories concerning men who are trying to

Straight trans ID'd girls. A demographic of teenage girls terrified by modern culture's toxic projection of womanhood. @HadleyFreeman has written compassionately about this cohort many times. x.com/HadleyFreeman/… 3/18

I’ve written about the demographic at the heart of the Cass review: teenage girls. How could the NHS have betrayed so many unhappy, vulnerable girls by medicalising them to be boys? thetimes.co.uk/article/c7cc51…
