  • Misogyny on steroids

    Also:

    The so-called feminists that support gender ideology are third wave/intersectional feminists. Intersectional feminists are to feminism what National Socialists were to socialism. That is, they aren't feminists. No feminist would say, e.g., that prostitution is "empowering."

  • Colorado trans assault

    told her he would kill her if she tried to escape. Viramontes, previously known as Cameron Mauldin, is accused of brutally beating and torturing the victim before she was able to escape and contact authorities.

    Local news reports have referred to Viramontes simply as a “woman,” with no mention of his transgender status or biological sex.

    He beat the woman, and sexually assaulted her.

    When officers arrived on the scene, they discovered the victim had sustained multiple serious injuries, including “severe” bruising to her face. She was also riddled with puncture and bite marks, and was taken to a hospital for treatment, where a doctor determined she was at “a substantial risk of serious permanent disfigurement.”

    But, such is the power of the gender cult, the press lied rather than say the attacker was a man. Following cult doctrine overrules any requirement to tell the truth.

    Also:

    Reduxx has also learned that Viramontes had previously played American-style football on a local women’s team. According to a 2021 Facebook post, Viramontes played the contact sport against female opponents on the Rocky Mountain Thunderkatz as a linebacker.

    The team, which is semi-professional and under the umbrella of the Women’s Football Alliance, has boasted of being “LGBTQ inclusive,” and has previously made posts using the progress pride flag filter on Facebook.

  • Transphobic archaeologists in Brazil

    hat she was notified by police that she was facing possible criminal charges because she had mocked a trans activist who had stated that “archaeologists are transphobic.”

    Mizuno explained that her ordeal began after an article was circulated about Lucy, a well-known fossil of a female human ancestor which dates back approximately 3.2 million years.

    “The situation was, there was an article going around about the bones belonging to the fossil of Lucy, and how the archaeologists found out that she was a woman, because of the pelvic bone,” Mizuno said. “Trans activists were saying that attesting that Lucy was a woman, because of her female pelvic bone, was transphobia. In other words, they said she could be a trans man. They really think that someone who lived three million years ago had a ‘gender identity.’ It’s an unreasonable argument, an anachronism.”

    It's fucking ridiculous is what it is.

    She continued: “I took screen shots of the tweet with these accusations of alleged ‘transphobia’ by the archaeologists, which said exactly the following: ‘This tweet reminds me of something I never see people talking about. Archaeologists are indeed transphobic. That so-called Lucy, for example, are they inferring she was a woman based on the bones alone? Does that mean that if I die, in 500 or 5000 years someone might disrespect my gender because of that?”

    Mizuno took a screen shot of the comment and posted it with her own commentary, writing: “With each passing day, human extinction ceases to become a fear and becomes something to hope for.” Mizuno explains that it was intended to be a light-hearted joke.

    She was informed later by the police that a criminal investigation had been opened into her comments.

    Mizuno explains that police first became aware of her while they were probing the social media of Isabela Cêpa, another women’s rights activist who they were similarly investigating for criminal “transphobia.” As previously reported by Reduxx, Cêpa has been threatened with up to 25 years in prison for “misgendering” a transgender politician named Erika Hilton.

    That previous Reduxx report is here.

    Strange country, Brazil. 

    Despite being a very conservative country, Brazil has some of the most extensive laws against transphobia in the world. In 2019, Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court ruled that discrimination against ‘LGBTQ Community’ constituted a penal offense, but fell under existing race-based protections as a form of “social racism.”

  • Return to Darlington

    They still don't get it. NHS trust policy ‘allowed biological men to use women’s changing room’.

    Guidance issued by an NHS hospital would allow men identifying as women to use female changing rooms, despite warnings that the policy breaks the law.

    Officials from the Royal College of Nursing wrote to senior administrators at the County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust to warn that Darlington Memorial Hospital was breaching 33-year-old workplace legislation that requires the provision of single-sex changing facilities for men and women.

    The row is the latest development in a legal battle over transgender policies at the trust, which a group of female nurses has claimed puts women “at risk”.

    It puts women at risk by allowing a man into the women-only changing room, where he asks why they're not getting undressed yet while they can see his genitals through his underwear. But he claims he's trans, and so benefits from the holy mantle of inclusivity.

    It has now emerged that in the last week of March officials at the royal college — the professional body for nurses in the UK — wrote to a director at the trust to complain that it was in breach of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.

    The college pointed out that those regulations required “the provision of single-sex changing facilities for men and women — the only exception being where the provision is of single lockable rooms (not cubicles)”.

    The official said that the college was flagging the statutory position “given the ongoing legal dispute and internal investigation” around the dispute over a transgender nurse at the hospital. The letter added that “the regulations also appear to have been overlooked by other organisations”, before stating that the college “expects the trust to comply with these statutory provisions and provide single-sex changing rooms without delay”.

    However, campaigners representing the women have said that three days after the letter was sent, the trust director re-published its “transitioning in the workplace policy”, without any changes to the guidance, which, it is claimed, said that a biological man can change in the female staff changing rooms.

    The only sign of hope here is that at least the Royal College of Nursing seems to have got the message.

  • A rare hero in the grooming gangs story

    ing. It was published in The Times a day later. The police launched a criminal inquiry into the leak and accused The Times of “exploiting the victims”.

    Finally, Rotherham council ordered an independent inquiry in August 2013 because, its chief executive admitted, “The Times won’t leave us alone”. Professor Alexis Jay’s report in 2014 found that 1,400 girls had been groomed and abused in Rotherham since the late 1990s. Children had been trafficked to other cities. Some were doused with petrol and told they would be set alight if they told anyone. The council was placed in special measures. Heads rolled. Norfolk would win the Paul Foot award and the Orwell prize for his investigations and was named the 2014 Journalist of the Year at the British Journalism Awards.

    Not that there's been any kind of happy ending to the whole wretched saga.

  • Gender doesn’t matter

    /p>

    Finally, Norrie claims that Court’s decision exacerbates bad relations between the trans community and those who insist that gender and sex are biological matters. Bearing in mind that this is chiefly a conflict between men and women — on the one hand, men who want access to women’s spaces, to bully or shame women into accepting opposite-sex intimate care, to elbow women aside in their own sports categories; and on the other, the women who say “no” to those men — the complaint that restoring women’s rights to them exacerbates bad relations is dismaying. If women would only be good and obedient, men wouldn’t have to get angry with them.

    Conclusion:

    The legal reasoning in Norrie’s blog post is surprisingly weak. In fairness to Professor Norrie, it should be remembered that this is in the nature of a “first pass” at a substantial Supreme Court judgment in an area of law in which he is not a specialist. What is more disquieting is his approach to a conflict between men’s wishes and women’s privacy, dignity, autonomy and safety which displays a tender empathy for men who want to be women while stereotyping women’s meticulously evidenced objections as feigned or hysterical. Norrie’s call for kindness is in truth a thinly disguised demand for submission. 

  • Trans toddlers

    source close to the consultation process said NHS England had “caved to the pressure” of trans activists to remove the limits.

    The children are not given powerful drugs such as puberty blockers at the clinics, but are offered counselling and therapy along with their family.

    Up to 10 children of nursery age are being treated, according to new data, while as many as 157 children aged nine or younger have been referred to the clinics.

    "Caved in" to pressure from trans activists. Well perhaps….but it's hardly a tidal wave of cases – "up to 10 children of nursery age" – and they're not giving out puberty blockers. And there are children who claim to have gender dysphoria. Or rather, whose parents claim their children have gender dysphoria, and have been fooled into believing the "born in the wrong body" nonsense.

    Stephanie Davies-Arai, the director of Transgender Trend, said: “Although it seems unbelievable that children under five are being referred to the new gender hubs, it was a recommendation of the Cass review that children are seen as early as possible.

    “This makes sense because parents have been given such bad advice for so long, and may believe their child is ‘transgender’.”

    She added: “Trans lobbyists have told parents that children know their ‘gender identity’ from age three and there is no harm in ‘affirming’ a child’s identity. It is important that these parents can get proper information and sensible advice from the gender hubs rather than listening to activists.”

    It's the parents rather than the children who need the counselling and therapy.

    Helen Joyce:

    “The question for the new NHS hubs is whether they perpetuate the failed ‘affirmation’ model of the now-closed GIDS clinic, in which case parents should keep their children well away, or whether they offer genuinely holistic care based on evidence, not ideology."

    Still the best:
