The Overwhelm: Trans Ideology In Every Direction

More then can fit on a page

Firstly, let me apologise for not posting in a couple weeks. I am (as happens) working on a very complicated piece I hope to publish next week. I find much of this writing work quite overwhelming at times as the scope and scale of dehumanisation is profound. It can take your breath away. And the constancy is wearing. That I happen to know people implicated in the abuse of children via promotion of trans ideology alone makes it more difficult to articulate. That I know children and families damaged by the self same ideology also difficult. And when I say difficult, I mean monstrous and swamp like. Finding a thread to explain in coherent terms what I am witnessing is gruelling. Finding a compassionate way round it, complex and onerous. And I don’t really think I’m there if I am to be honest. But it must be spoken about so here I am.

What is happening now via not just trans ideology but also the assisted suicide bill, surrogacy, queer theory, the new (racist) anti-racism programs et al represents an assault on what it means to be human, to be alive. And it’s not a world I want. Seeing children targeted and damaged (for life) is the most devastating aspect of the whole thing. The divisions it has created in self and society cannot be understated.

Organisations or programs that purport to represent ‘children’s views’ often are no more than a front for adult agendas. What children want is spaces to play, to be safe, and to have stable lives. It doesn’t take a “Children’s Parliament” to prove that. We don’t need expensive quangos, or consultations. We just need to do our adult duty and care for children. Scotland (as a nation) has become notoriously bad at this.

What’s more the adult agendas can be very nefarious indeed. As

Malcolm Richard Clark

recounts in his latest post (on the rape conviction of LGBTQ+ activist Stephen Ireland of a 12 year old boy)-the LGBTQ+ lobby is riddled with predators and their depraved sexual fantasies drive its agenda.

No adult should be speaking to a child about sex in this way. Yet these organisations all have ‘confidential’ hotlines and chat rooms for children to access. Is this what is happening?

Ireland is not the first and nor will he be the last if we don’t get our act together. Predators will find every loophole imaginable to prey on children.

Let us not EVER forget that the organisation LGBT Youth Scotland whose founder was convicted of running the most depraved paedophile ring in Scotland’s history suffered not one setback upon his conviction and now is more widespread then it ever was- embedded in schools, the police, cultural institutions and the political sphere. They also run ‘members only’ anonymous chat rooms for children as the one above.

Shouldn’t this make us concerned? Shouldn’t it register at least a note of response from our legislatures? Save a few (familiar) voices of dissent, largely not. What does that say about the priorities of our political elite? Or their ‘interests’?

The screenshot below shows LGBT materials for a school for children with autism in Edinburgh. A school for Autistic CHILDREN. Children who are known to have sensory issues. Children who are known to struggle with bodily changes (such as puberty) even more profoundly than your bog standard neurotypical child. Children who are ripe for grooming into the concept that their normal pubertal changes are indicative that they are in the ‘wrong body’. THIS IS WRONG

.

LGBT Youth Scotland is a propagandist organisation which uses its ‘Charter scheme’ to access children for its aims. Here are some of the things they compel children to do in pursuit of their cause at Scottish secondaries AND primary schools (as reported by Dan Sanderson in the Telegraph):

• Setting up ‘gender and sexual orientation alliance groups’

• Children are provided with the ‘option’ to change ‘gender’ via letter templates provided by the charity.

• Children are appointed ‘LGBT Champions’ where they are urged to celebrate ‘National Coming Out Day’ and ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’

• LGBTYS organisational posters must be placed around the school and visible for all students.

• Schools must deliver activities that ‘specifically address the needs of transgender young people’ such as a campaign addressing ‘trans rights’

• Surveys are provided to student body (including infant classes) asking them if they are ‘part of the transgender community’.

• Schools must provide ‘safe spaces’ for LGBT pupils, wherein gender identity is prioritised over biological sex.

What is clear is that this organisation, embedded in many Scottish schools, operates from a de-facto affirmation only approach of children struggling with their sexed bodies. This undermines safeguarding of children. Children who are groomed for affirmation are likely to go onto pharmaceutical and medical pathways and that never NEVER ends well.

Here two doctors have written publicly of the harms they are witnessing in gender ‘healthcare’.

Dr. J. Chrysostom has written a detailed exposition of the failings of ‘vaginoplasty’ and another doctor recounts the harm witnessed in the surgery related to hormone effects on trans identified individuals.

The Cass review drew a clear line between social transition and medical transition. Affirming an individual (let alone a child) is not kind, it is signing them up for a life time of medicalisation, pain, and a state sanctioned long agonising death. It is worse then anything Mengele or his counterpart Erwin Gorbrandt ever could have thought up.

And yet self-id is still being adopted as the de-facto position in schools that allow children to ‘choose’ their toilet based on their ‘inner sense of gender’. Here Parent Watch Glasgow posts a letter sent to Douglas Hutchinson, Head of Education regarding single sex toilet provision, as is required by law. Mr. Hutchinson iterates that ‘of course Glasgow complies with the law’.

But they don’t.

Is Mr. Hutchinson (the Director of Education Glasgow) mis-informed or lying? Not a good look. At least six schools are shown to feature ‘gender neutral toilets’ as well as planning permission and schools under construction for at least three more.

Perhaps Mr. Hutchinson is ramping up business for the much criticised puberty blocker trial which has been granted £10 million pounds by our struggling NHS.

Thankfully detransitioner Keira Bell, all too aware of the harms of gender affirmation, is part of a cohort of campaigners threatening legal action if the trial goes ahead. Keira speaks bravely of what has happened to her body as a result of hormone use as a warning to others. Keira, who sought transition as a result of sexual trauma as a child was streamlined into the gender service and went through a mastectomy, she now faces very possible infertility, atrophied genitals, a permanently changed voice and facial hair for life.

And it doesn’t end there- the UK is ramping up for round two of it’s ‘End Conversion Therapy Ban' which they purport is there to ‘protect vulnerable young LGBT people’. Except it’s not. It’s self id through the back door. Labour put it into their manifesto. Every element you associate with good lawmaking is illegal already. It’s not about keeping kids from being tortured for ‘being gay’ (already illegal). This is a protocol wherein if a child stated they were trans therapists AND parents would be compelled BY LAW to affirm. They would not be able to ask if the child had been abused, if the child was autistic, if the child had been groomed by a teacher. What this ban would do would criminalise any approach BUT affirmation for children claiming to be the opposite sex. And we can see where that leads (see above).

We also have the UNCRC (United Nation Rights of the Child Rights Respecting School Program) in 75% of Scottish school with its slimy little claws. This also makes a virtue of keeping secrets, in the name of privacy (Article 16). This is what has been weaponised in schools to justify keeping ‘gender transition’ a secret from parents.

And what of children who don’t even have parents to advocate for them? Self-id. As previously explored in my podcast with former social worker

Maggie Mellon

the Care Inspectorate follows an affirmation policy in Care Homes, going as far as to allow boys to identify into girls rooms.

“… the Care Inspectorate developed trans guidance for Care Homes in which ‘affirmation only’ is the policy…. And that if social workers and care workers do not promote gender ideology and affirm children in care they could be sacked… if a boy identifies as a girl, he could be roomed with girl residents… (and) many of these children suffer sexual abuse and that this perpetuates abuse cycles”

It is a good thing that much awareness is being raised about these issues. The question is, how do we get them to shift? When detransitioners with their broken bodies look back at their childhood, a time that should have been full of ‘not a care in the world’ which instead was full of activism and adult virtue, do you think they will thank us? We must individually and collectively demand better for our children, for our future. It will not come again.
