Yesterday, Wes Streeting made the UK ban on puberty blockers for trans kids permanent. The ban does not apply to cisgender children; puberty blockers are apparently magic medicine that are uniquely dangerous to trans and gender non-conforming kids.
Precocious puberty is a physical ailment that can be dealt with for a couple of years through the use of these drugs. Then come off them and puberty happens. This is conceptually different from their application until a child is of the age to start cross hormones, no?
I was surfing through YouTube as you do the other day when I came across someone more outwardly reasonable than this loudmouth but the same massive cognitive dissonance applied. Total refusal to deal with reality and if reality (which is that Trans is a mental illness) bites it’s reality that needs redefinition. I have almost nothing in common with the head hackers but when it comes to trans campaigners one can’t help thinking they have it correct with seeing if they can fly from a tall building.
Mentally ill pervs tend not to argue in good faith.
I’ve long since given up on trying to get people to care about trans people.
For once he’s correct.
‘cisgender children’ (read: normally, not mentally unwell children) won’t be asking for these drugs, so why would a ban apply to them?
Wes Streeting made the UK ban on puberty blockers for trans kids permanent. The ban does not apply to cisgender children;
I should have though cisgender (horrid prefix) children would have to suffer the medicalised assault of puberty blockers in order to become “trans” kids so future generations of the medically mutilated will be smaller than they otherwise might have been.
No doubt some of these disturbed children will still be bonkers one way and another but the rest may grown out of the problem if they’re not indulged in their fantasies.
It’s spelled “non-transgender”.
Well, yes MSB.
Ooops. I mean TMB.
I think this is called senility.
OT, but I find Streeting’s trolling of Ed Milipede (on Syria) and Louise Haigh (“I’ll call her on one of her phones”) mildly amusing…
Chemotherapy is apparently magic medicine that is uniquely dangerous to people who don’t have cancer.

It is pretty ironic that amongst all the morass of wrongness that surrounds Milibrain, not getting involved in Syria was a pretty good move. Let the Russkis take the burn on it. He was borne out by subsequent events, until that fool Assad stopped paying his soldiers.
Also, the ban isn’t ‘puberty blockers for trans kids’, its a ban on using them to indefinitely prevent puberty for the purpose of ‘treating’ gender dysmorphia.
A trans kid that has a condition that would indicate the use of puberty blockers has the same access to them as anyone else does.
