The violent, fetishistic narcissism at the heart of trans activism

Helen Joyce at The Critic, with a nod to Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, on The five stages of victory after the Supreme Court ruling. Most gender ideologues are still stuck on anger:

Signs waved at a demo in Parliament Square called for the hanging of TERFs and the return of witch burning. One cross-dressing man wanted the world to know that his “pussy tastes like non-biological Fairy Liquid”. Two others brought a dog in a jacket declaring “I eat TERFs and I’m hungry”.

A middle-aged cross-dresser with fake boobs spilling out of a baby-doll dress explained to a passing videographer that he had used the ladies’ in Waterloo station on his way there. “I’m not going to stop,” he said. “If I walked into a men’s toilet looking like this, I’m just asking for trouble.”

Nothing I can say about the violent, fetishistic narcissism at the heart of trans activism is half as persuasive as what trans activists say themselves. Every time they speak, they make it harder for all but the most gender-addled politicians to continue insisting that every “transwoman” is a vulnerable sweetie nobly coping with the tragic, albeit puzzlingly metaphysical, disability of having been born looking exactly like a man.
