12x increase in the suicide rate post “gender affirming” care. The people pushing this need to be put in prison.

@Bones it's like a religious cult for those people. Nothing in that report is remotely surprising, good to see something is finally being done about it though

Could go anywhere, but will stick it here.

Oh the irony.
Scores of actresses turn down roles in play critical of JK Rowling’s gender views
Stage production set to debut at the Edinburgh Fringe has already caused outrage over its explicit working title
A play that criticises JK Rowling’s views on gender is struggling to cast women with 90 actresses so far rejecting parts. The stage production, which is set to debut at the Edinburgh Fringe, has already caused outrage over a working title which labelled the gender-critical Harry Potter author a c----.
The production is yet to cast any of the female roles, including that of Rowling herself.

So the trans community rally against hate speech but surely a play with that title is in itself hate speech ?
The hypocrisy and lack of self awareness is just ludicrous
It's intersectionality. Hate speech can only go one way; JK is on the top line for most of this, therefore hate speech against her doesn't exist. I am not making this up.

Very hard to read this on a phone. Is it because she has the gall to be successful and self made and not want some bloke in a dress flopping his cock out in a woman’s changing room ?

Trans activists believe anyone can change gender and biological sex is irrelevant. We aren't talking about fully transitioned people here, but blokes who put on a wig and a pair of tights and demand to be treated the same as women.
We ended up with men wearing dresses demanding and getting access to Rape Refuges, rapists being sent to women's prisons, women being hounded out jobs for saying chromosomes are relevant and lesbians being told they were transphobic because they didn't want a bloke wearing a dress sticking a penis in their vagina (google Cotton Ceiling). Death threats were common as were assaults.
Rowling and others like Julie Bindel, Rosie Duffield and Jo Cherry called out this bullshit. That took some balls (deliberate choice of words).

I can have great fun with this: Immigrant, victim of colonial oppression, racism survivor (was racially abused once in Scotland), some maori and Polish in me and have been detained by racist UK immigration...
