Despite Peddle’s flex that the progressiveness of gender identity ideology (aka queer theory) liberated these women, they are just older and a little bit wiser. Less angry. Time has worked its natural effect, basically. Obviously Chin Tsui has fared worst, since, as a direct result of trans activism’s impact on detention policy, she experienced 18 months of unnecessary solitary confinement. These women, born with the deficits of poverty plus childhood trauma, ran head first into queer theory when they came out. ‘Beyond aggressive’ they might be, but they’re still chasing their own tails.

A talk with Sarah Jane Baker
‘I kidnapped and tortured somebody and got seven years for that and whilst in prison I tried to murder somebody, who hurt me,’ Baker admitted. We all nodded empathetically, as if we understood. Baker said he deserved every single day of the time he served for those crimes and that the victims hadn’t deserved it.

UNSAFE: The Carceral Roots of the Anti-Trans Backlash
Another epiphany. The self-righteousness of the left. You know the left is really up its own arse when radical trans activist abolitionist non-binary academics can even see it. Fuck me.
Trans Symposium at Birkbeck – ‘Existing Otherwise’
As regular tweeps know, we never shy away, having said that, even we couldn’t help being a bit rabbits-in-headlights when facing down the agenda for the Trans+ Virtual Centre of Excellence ‘Existing Otherwise’, published on Bluesky.

‘Learn what life is like for transgender teens’
Lambeth Libraries have made the documentary shorts of The Youth and Gender Media Project, an initiative founded by filmmaker Jonathan Skurnik, free to view for library members and invited him to talk on the topic. Skurnik started the project because he wanted children who didn’t conform to ‘gender roles’ to feel valued, the upshot of which is that he was probably the first filmmaker to spread uncritical information about medical and surgical transition for children across North America. He made four films on this subject, as part of the Youth and Gender Media Project, over a ten year period, starting in 2010.
