Links - 20th May 2023 (2 - Trans Mania)

David Llamas on Twitter - "🚨@SFSU  sent the following email about the the @Riley_Gaines_  @TPUSA  event🚨  “Dear SF State community,    Today, San Francisco State finds itself again at the center of a national discussion regarding freedom of speech and expression. Let me begin by saying clearly: the trans community is welcome and belongs at San Francisco State University. Further, our community fiercely believes in unity, connection, care and compassion, and we value different ideas, even when they are not our own. SF State is regularly noted as one of the most diverse campuses in the United States—this is what makes us Gators, and this is what makes us great. Diversity promotes critical discussions, new understandings and enriches the academic experience. But we may also find ourselves exposed to divergent views and even views we find personally abhorrent. These encounters have sometimes led to discord, anger, confrontation and fear. We must meet this moment and unite with a shared value of learning.   Thank you to our students who participated peacefully in Thursday evening’s event. It took tremendous bravery to stand in a challenging space. I am proud of the moments where we listened and asked insightful questions. I am also proud of the moments when our students demonstrated the value of free speech and the right to protest peacefully. These issues do not go away, and these values are very much at our core.   This feels difficult because it is difficult. As you reflect, process, and begin to heal, please remember that there are people, resources and services available and ready to receive our Gator community, including faculty, staff members, coaches and mentors who are here to support you.     Campus resources are also available:  1Equity and Community Inclusion  1Counseling and Psychological Services   1Dean of Students Office    The well-being of the SF State campus community remains our priority.     Sincerely,  Jamillah Moore, Ed.D.  Vice President for Student Affairs & Enrollment Management”  @tpusastudents  @charliekirk11"
Riley Gaines on Twitter - "I'm sorry did this just say PEACEFUL.... I was assaulted. I was extorted and held for random. The protestors demanded I pay them if I wanted to make it home safely. I missed my flight home because I was barricaded in a classroom... We must have different definitions of peaceful."
War is Peace

Independent Women's Forum on Twitter - "We strongly condemn the violence perpetrated against @iwf spokeswoman @Riley_Gaines_ on @SFSU campus. Riley was violently accosted, ambushed, and physically assaulted during a speech on sex discrimination women face in their own single-sex sports category."
Pedro L. Gonzalez on Twitter - "Didn’t take that long to go from “why do you care what people do in the privacy of their own bedroom” to “we’re going to kill you if you don’t believe men are women”"

Oli London on Twitter - "Women’s Swimming Star @Riley_Gaines_ has been violently assaulted by TRANS Activists while giving a speech on women’s sports at San Francisco State University.  A Transgender Male, wearing a dress, punched Riley repeatedly while the Trans Mob chased and harassed her until she was forced to take shelter in a locked room. All because she was speaking about women’s rights.   #rileygaines #transgender #trans"
Andrew Follett on Twitter - "Important point in this footage which a lot of people are missing... The video of the assault of @Riley_Gaines_ was posted and recorded by the Trans mob itself. This shows forethought and that they actually think they're above the law"
Tinman🤪🇺🇲 on Twitter - "That would be my judgement considering the going narratives an agendas being driven lately. Do you remember many of the Antifa/BLM thugs being arrested or adjudicated for literally destroying parts of cities and looting them for years? Not near enough. Consider the Trans in the same group. We were infiltrated long ago by Cultural Marxism seeded by globalist NGO's which are ultimately funded by the likes of George Soros. These are not "accidents or coincidences". Non of the crap you see today is."
The Monster + on Twitter - "They posted it as a warning to anyone else that if they speak out as Riley has, they too will be assaulted. And, if anyone dare defend themselves against such an attack, THEY will be the ones charged with crime."
Brattani on Twitter - "They want the violence. They want to be able to say “look at these violent cis women”"

‘I'm A Victim!’ Yells Trans Activist While Punching Woman In The Face | Babylon Bee - ""You people don't get it!" shouted the muscular, blue-haired man as he repeatedly struck the tiny woman in the jaw. "Trans people have the right to expose their genitalia in locker rooms to anyone they want! Stop threatening us and being violent!"... "If men who think they are women don't have the right to walk around naked in women's locker rooms, what rights DO they have?!" shouted another muscular male activist as he kicked an unconscious woman in the ribs. "We must be protected and defended!"  At publishing time, as the battered women were being hauled off to the hospital under police custody to receive treatment for their injuries before facing charges of committing dangerous crimes against the trans community, the trans activists who physically assaulted the protesting women had reportedly been isolated by law enforcement to protect them from the general public."
Liberal logic: their enemies' words are violence, but their own violence isn't violence

'Woke' professor denies male, female skeleton differences - "A “woke” University of Pittsburgh anthropology professor denied there’s a difference in male and female bone structure during a discussion about gender, sparking disbelief and outrage.  “If you were to dig up a human — two humans — a hundred years from now, both a man and a woman, could you tell the difference strictly off of bones?” Riley Gaines is shown in footage asking during the lecture.  “No,” professor Gabby Yearwood replies...   The response sparked appalled laughter from students, including Gaines, who describes herself on Twitter as a former University of Kentucky swimmer who believes there are “only two sexes.”  Yearwood then insists that he’s the “expert in the room,” according to FOX News.  “Have any of you been to anthropological sites? Have any of you studied biological anthropology? I’m just saying, I’ve got over 150 years of data, I’m just curious as to why I’m being laughed at,” he said before later declaring, “I have a PhD!”"

Meme - "My girlfriend says she misses cis dick.. I (21 FTM) and my girlfriend (20 cis f) have been together for 11 months now, and everything was seemingly great. She's super supportive, empathetic, and understanding. I have been on T for 2 years now, but haven't had bottom surgery. My girlfriend is bi and has been with mostly other cis girls but also some cis guys, and her last partner before me was a cis guy. We have been having regular sex for around 6 months now, and she always reassured me that my bottom growth was enough for her, while we also used toys. (I don't like to use a strap cuz it makes me dysphoric). Earlier tonight when we were having sex and she was riding me, she suddenly stopped, got off of me, and broke down. I was really confused and asked her if she was okay and what was wrong? Long story short after prodding at her for around 30 ming she said that she can't feel my t dick at all, and that she misses the feeling of an actual cis dick, and she can't get that feeling from toys or my t dick. When I heard this it felt like my soul was crushed, and I drove back home. I've been on the verge of crying every since, and I don't know what to think of what she said."

Meme - "I can't have friends
Every time I talk with someone they accidentally misgender me and my day gets completely ruined and I start crying the entire day. The worst part it's that I also have schizophrenia, when I forgot my medication the walls misgender me and also cry. I can't have any friends being schizophrenic and dysphoric."

Meme - "I was born visible, but I'm now identifying as trans-parent. My new pronouns will be who/where"

BBC Radio 4 - Best of Today, Royal Academy removes artist’s work from its gift shop - "‘The Royal Academy deciding that it would no longer sell work by the textile artists Jess de Wahls in its online shop. This was announced last week when the Royal Academy posted it on their Instagram stories that her work would no longer be stocked because of her transphobic views. They had contacted her just before the announcement and said they had had complaints about her’...
They emailed me which almost, well, I predicted because I at that point had seen what was going on, what was mounting against me once more on social media. And they they emailed me, I responded quite swiftly because it's distressing, when there's a bit of a mob mounting against you on social media that has the power and capacity to to sway an organization like that. So I emailed them back, twice, didn't hear anything back from them for another day. Or well actually another two days. The day after, I again got sent a screenshot by friends that they had posted on their social media story that they will no longer be stocking the work of this so called transphobic artists’
‘You had no advance notice that a decision of that kind which had significant repercussions, you had no no notice that that decision had been made, and therefore no opportunity to respond to it, that what they said to you sounds like they were more sort of letting you know that they'd had complaints and they were looking at them.’...
‘I have compassion for the journey that they're going through. But I can't make myself believe something I don't believe to be true. I find it really interesting that in this entire conversation, we now talk about the nature of the biologic, bio, biological fact that there's only two sexes as an opinion. How, when has that become an opinion? I don't. This is the bit where it doesn't remove my compassion from that person. But I don't exist to validate other people's idea of themselves... I thought, well, this is such a big institution. Maybe they won't be swayed by the online mob’...
'They haven't issued any public statement apart from that Instagram story in the nature of that is that it it disappears after being posted'...
‘This is one of those classic situations in which very few people that heard what she wrote back in 2019, very few people were aware that she had anything stocked in the shop’...
‘It was eight people who complained to the Royal Academy. And without reaching any kind of sort of agreement on the way forward, they suddenly said in an Instagram story that they were no longer going to stock her’...
‘I'm very much into having a healthy place for debate and discussion… I do believe that gender as a subject can be attacked, can be can be discussed, can be debated. And I think art is one of the places in society, that we should be having a degree of freedom of speech and a degree of expression so that we can discuss things, express things. I wonder how many items by Picasso are in the Royal Academy shop as well, obviously, not current works. But in terms of books about them, because Picasso was quite renowned as a misogynist and had problematic personal lives. The art, the lives of artists going back, you know, across the centuries were problematic. And we don't sort of destock them as a result of it.’"
Sounds like some young punk on the social media team tried to push things through

Royal Academy of Arts apologises to Jess de Wahls in transphobia row - "The Royal Academy of Arts has apologised to an artist whose work was removed from its gift shop after it branded her views transphobic on social media, calling its initial decision a “betrayal” of its commitment to freedom of speech... De Wahls’s comments from 2019 are what led to accusations of transphobia, which the artist denied.In the blogpost on her website, she wrote: “I have no issue with somebody who feels more comfortable expressing themselves as if they are the other sex (or in whatever way they please for that matter).  “However, I cannot accept people’s unsubstantiated assertions that they are in fact the opposite sex to when they were born and deserve to be extended the same rights as if they were born as such.”... the LGBT rights campaigner Peter Tatchell told the Guardian this week: “Trans women are different from other women, but being a different kind of woman is perfectly valid and no justification for the denial of their identity.  “If an artist denied Jewish, black or gay people’s identity, most people would say that the Royal Academy would be right to remove their works from the gift shop. But when Jess denies trans people’s identity, she and other trans critics say that it’s her right to free speech and she should not be penalised. This smacks of double standards.”"
Weird. We kept being told that sex and gender are different and that people who don't understand that are ignorant
Does talking about Jews and white privilege mean you're denying their identity? Since talking about biology is now unacceptable, does saying there is no gay gene mean you're denying gay identity?

Narrator: It was a man, forcing himself into girl tops.
u/miss3star Pansexual: My ribs and shoulders make me look like a dude forcing himself into girl tops
I thought I had a small torso (28" around where the bra band sits. Hesitant to call it band size because I don't have boobs). Apparently not. I have a very ugly, bony rib cage. I hate how there are two weird prongs sticking out the front near the bottom of my ribs. And my shoulders. I don't know how to be any smaller, I'm already borderline anorexic. I was so excited about finding a cute top but it's all ruined now."

Teacher at California girls' school forced to apologize to 11-yr-olds for saying 'good afternoon, girls' - "A teacher at a private girls' school has alleged that she was "humiliated" after being told to apologize to 11-year-old students for referring to them as girls. Reports reveal that the teacher had greeted her class with "good afternoon, girls" at the beginning of a lecture, which led to complaints from the students. Administrators at the $24,800-per-year institution then instructed the teacher to apologize... she was "managed out" by senior staff at the elite school, which is a part of the independent Girls' Day School Trust, but only after being made to apologize in front of the entire school... senior staff members appeared to support the students during a lunchtime protest organized by the students against the teacher. She said, "I was told that they made placards with slogans such as 'Trans lives matter.' Before the end of the week, I was in some sort of disciplinary process and the head of year was telling me I had to apologize to the girls.""

Netflix quietly dumps Cyndi Lauper kids show about non-binary bison - "Netflix quietly canceled the animated children's series Ridley Jones, after an episode featured a non-binary character.  According to the show's creator Chris Nee, the series was not given any promotion before its release. Nee, a two-time Kidscreen Award winner and Emmy nominee, tweeted on Wednesday addressing the cancellation, claiming that Netflix "quietly dumped" the show due to its inclusion of a non-binary character."

Trans Rights Means No Rights at All - "The fiction of “trans rights” places a tremendous burden on the vast majority of people whose brains and bodies are in sync. We’re forced to play along with the fiction that brains — which learn and grow and change all the time — are what determine our “true” gender. And yet the nature and features of our bodies — fixed at conception by our genetic code — are infinitely malleable, mere plastic to be molded by surgery and drugs to conform to the brain’s whims.  Worse, by conflating a mental health issue with a civil rights issue, the Left has found a clever new way to upend the entire notion of rights.  The impact on individuals of this fiction has been to deny the right of adolescent girls to survive their awkward stage intact — and there’s got to be a special place in Hell for surgeons who butcher the bodies of teenage girls under the influence of this social contagion... Women have lost the right to have their own spaces, their own sports, and even — when you look at the glamorization of pantomime “women” like Dylan Mulvaney — their own selves. Straight men have lost the right to admit we’re attracted only to real women. So have lesbians for that matter, because being LGB is no defense against the Q and the T.  Now we have governments in states like California and Oregon passing laws against parents helping guide their children across the rocky passages of adolescence, and mandating trans “care” as part of their “protection” of kids’ trans rights.  Nearly as bad is the weaponization of those so-called trans rights by violent adult males, to weasel their way into formerly women’s spaces. The most chilling example are these male convicts who declared themselves “women” and will serve their time alongside actual females in California’s women’s prisons...   If we go strictly by attempted suicide rates, then gender dysphoria is far and away the most debilitating mental condition anyone could suffer. Nearly one in four sufferers attempt suicide at some point in their lives, and “almost half (48.3%) reported suicidal ideation.” Those jaw-dropping numbers are unchanged regardless of whether or not a person has undergone transitioning...   Those individuals enduring this terrible condition deserve our sympathy and our care, not indulgence.  There’s nothing in “trans rights” that addresses the sad fact that nothing we’re doing is helping, and seemingly everything we’re doing hurts someone — particularly those who don’t even suffer from gender dysphoria."

Children as young as seven might be ‘mixed berry gender fluid muffins’, Welsh teachers told - "Children as young as seven might be a “mixed berry gender fluid muffin”, teachers have been told in a sex education resource promoted by the Welsh Government.  The 170-page "Agenda" pamphlet, which has been promoted to all schools in Labour-run Wales, claims that biological sex “is not just ‘male’ and 'female’” and lectures teachers on how some “want to change our gender pronouns (eg. from he to she) or want to be ‘agender’”, where they have no gender.  It has been described as the latest “highly inappropriate” example of sex and relationships education in Britain's schools to emerge, with critics claiming the Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford is “determined to push gender ideology”.  An investigation by The Telegraph found last week that pupils in some secondary schools have been told there are 100 genders and children are being taught gender fluidity as fact in some major academy trusts and independent schools, which led to Rishi Sunak ordering an urgent review this week."

University ‘blocks’ academic from her own gender wars research over ‘dangerous’ data - "A university has “confiscated” the findings of an academic studying Britain’s gender wars in a row over her “dangerous” research data, The Telegraph can reveal.   Dr Laura Favaro began the first ever taxpayer-funded study into whether social scientists at universities feel censored over their views on transgender issues in March 2020 at City, University of London.  But it has descended into chaos, with the study’s author allegedly hounded out of the university, stripped of the findings she collected and barred from publishing them amid claims of transphobia.  Dr Favaro is now bringing an employment tribunal claim against City for harassment, victimisation and whistleblowing detriment, and claims she was discriminated against for her protected philosophical belief in the reality of biological sex... Her study involved 50 individual interviews with academics in gender studies who identified as feminists, a representative survey of social scientists with 650 responses and hundreds of documents and tweets.  Scholars told her that they had threats of violence in the gender debate, hostility from colleagues, and others said they felt their careers “can’t survive that sort of backlash”, and that they have to have “secret conversations” to avoid reprisal and because “we are all so afraid”.  Her final work has not been published, as it was derailed by complaints about an article for Times Higher Education in which she warned that “a culture of discrimination, silencing and fear has taken hold”.  Following this, she says, her line managers told her that the study had “become an institutionally sensitive issue” and that “City considers my data to be dangerous” and is “frightened of making it public”.   A research participant who “did not like the findings” and academics sympathetic to trans issues were among those who complained. One, Dr Sahra Taylor, a City lecturer, claimed it was an “attack piece on trans people [and] our existences” that has “clearly caused harm to many interviewed”. City found following an investigation that there was “no evidence” that the research breached any ethics criteria.  But City allegedly locked the email account Dr Favaro used to communicate with survey respondents, and demanded that she hand over all of her interview and survey data and delete any copies of it, before making her redundant on March 31, despite her claiming she has a permanent contract. Dr Favaro also claims City rejected her offer to give a talk on her findings.   It means she cannot publish her survey or deposit it in the UK Data Archive, as she had hoped to, and feels her career is now in ruins... “It feels like a never-ending nightmare, dystopian, so unjust. All I have been trying to do is my job as a sociologist. There was a social conflict, so I asked questions, collected data, reported on the findings, offered an analysis. That is my job."
TRAs are so threatened by dissenting views

Trans teen died from vaginoplasty complications during landmark Dutch study used to justify child sex changes - "A 2016 medical article documenting the tragic death of one of the participants in the linchpin Dutch study upon which the entire child sex change experiment is based indicates that puberty suppression was to blame for the young person’s death.  The case is that of an 18-year-old trans-identified male whose puberty was blocked by the Dutch researchers at a very early stage, meaning there wasn’t enough penile tissue for surgeons to use to create a “neo-vagina.” Therefore, a more risky procedure using a section of the patient’s bowel was necessary, which resulted in fatal necrotizing fasciitis...   Jazz Jennings, star of the reality TV show I Am Jazz, faced a similar issue when it came time for genital surgery. Jennings was an extremely gender-nonconforming child who would almost certainly have grown up to be a gay man but was instead transitioned at a very young age.  Jennings’s puberty was also blocked very early meaning standard vaginoplasty was not possible. Jennings required three corrective surgeries, still struggles in the dating world, and has never experienced orgasm.  Dr. Marci Bowers, Jennings’s surgeon and president of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, is on record saying that all boys who have their puberty blocked early will never experience orgasm, which surely casts doubt on the Dutch researcher’s conclusion that “vaginal reconstruction has a positive influence on the quality of life in (transgender) women.”"
Clearly "livesaving" "treatment"

Thread by @jeremycarl4 on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "Transgender-identifying Montana House member "Zooey Zephyr" became a media celebrity when he accused the MT GOP of "having blood on their hands" after passing a bill to block genital and hormonal mutilation of children... Zephyr's original speech (clearly totally out of bounds for a legislative debate) first brought him to major national attention after an initial burst of interest when he was elected in 2022...  the MT House expelled him from the floor for the rest of the legislative session.  Rep. Zephyr claims that when he came out as transgender his mother told him that he “always wanted to be a martyr.”  He is now getting his wish... But who really is “Zooey Zephyr”?  Both Montana and national media seem incurious.  An exhaustive internet search reveals a disquieting story, one that shows a disturbed young man with a troubled past and a series of toxic relationships. Born in Billings, MT as Zachary Raasch, he was a champion high school wrestler. “Zooey Zephyr,” currently in the state and national headlines, did not even exist until 2019, when, after several months of taking female hormones, Raasch publicly transitioned. He had surgical vaginoplasty in 2022 (indeed he was not in Missoula on election night when he was elected to the Montana House, but flying to New York for post-operative care of the wound where his natural genitals used to be) According to Raasch, his parents “disowned” him when he decided to transition. Raasch was originally motivated to run for the state legislature in response to the attempts to ban “Transgender girls” from girls and women’s sports. Disturbingly, he is extremely interested in transhumanism (the melding of man and machine through “technological enhancement” of the human body)—the subject of an abandoned master’s thesis at the University of Montana.  Perhaps this explains his desire to modify his body. Previously, he was a major player in the online Super Smash Bros. online gaming community (playing here as Cazcom) The community was hit by a scandal in 2020 involving major players and the sexual abuse of minors... He is also a fan of Manga and anime. Raasch has posted disturbing sexualized anime images on his Twitter.  He shows all the classic sign of an autogynephilic—a man who (often spurred by pornography or fetish) becomes sexually aroused by the idea of themselves as a woman. Raasch is also dating Anthony “Erin” Reed, one of the most prominent national transgender activists.  Reed has a disturbing background himself, and one again that has been almost completely ignored by the national media in which he has frequently appeared."
