Wow talk about navel-gazing…
“Transgender people” need more studies because… men, sorry, “prostate-havers” dosing themselves with hormones haven’t been studied enough, but oh by the way shut up don’t you dare suggest that might be a bad idea.
Can’t find transgender patients for studies because… they refuse to admit what they’re claiming to be isn’t what they are but oh by the way no you’re the deluded one they obviously Know what they are, duh.
Transgender patients are underrepresented in studies… I mean, they make up a whopping 1% of the population, and it’s the most oppressed 1%, but don’t ask which 1% because they’re actually the other sex wait I mean … Read the rest

And Dylan is a women, just like Charles III is The King, it is a matter of manners, you address people the way they ask to be addressed. When we stop being kind & polite we lose something very fundamental.

Once I stopped laughing I conceded that in one way she’s quite right. It’s a polite fiction that Choss Windsor is “The King” for the simple reason that it’s a polite fiction that anyone is “The King” or “The Queen.” Of course it is; what else would it be? It’s a hereditary monarchy, i.e. it’s an artificial social arrangement … Read the rest

Good grief. How about “No.”
Coronation: Public asked to swear allegiance to King Charles
Why on earth would anyone want to do that?
People watching the Coronation will be invited to join a “chorus of millions” to swear allegiance to the King and his heirs, organisers say. The public pledge is one of several striking changes to the ancient ceremony revealed on Saturday.
In a coronation full of firsts, female clergy will play a prominent role, and the King himself will pray out loud. The Christian service will also see religious leaders from other faiths have an active part for the first time.
They couldn’t make it sound more repulsive if they tried. Monarchy on the one hand and god-bothering … Read the rest

Transgender women face prostate cancer risk, says first-of-its-kind study from UCSF
Of course they do: because they are men.
Transgender women have a small but meaningful risk of prostate cancer, but traditional screening tools may not work well for them, especially if they’re taking estrogen for gender-affirming care, according to a national study led by UCSF researchers.
Or rather, especially if they’re mucking up their bodies by taking estrogen to foster a delusion that they’re women. “Gender-affirming care” is a misnomer, and medical researchers shouldn’t be using it. “Gender affirmation” isn’t medical.

I would like to express my extreme disappointment that last night, for the second time in six months, we were left with no alternative but to stop the screening of ‘Adult Human Female’ because of safety concerns for attendees.
No alternative? Please. The alternative was to force the protesters to get out of the way so that people could go in to see ‘Adult Human Female.’ That’s it, that’s the alternative.

In Edinburgh the University actually helped the protesters prevent women from getting in, before piously announcing it was forced to cancel the screening because of the protests the university itself assisted.
The university built a large protected area round the door for them with barricades, which meant that most of the time most of the people who would otherwise had to have been blocking the door were nowhere near it. They let them come and go through the barricades.

Okay, I’ll see your “look back in horror” and raise you “looking on in horror right now. Just off the top of my head here’s what being “uncritical” of gender has resulted in:
Violent male sex offenders being imprisoned with women in what were and should be female only prisons. The women have no say in this and are forced to submit.
Men being admitted into what were and should be female only rape and domestic violence services. The women have no say in this and are forced to submit.

The Australian government has instructed a news outlet to remove or heavily censor an article that “offended” a trans-identified male living in the country.
Reduxx, an independent media project dedicated to exposing gender ideology, received a notice from Australia’s eSafety Commissioner on April 28. The notice alerted them to a complaint made about an article they published on April 1.
The article, “Thousands of Complaints Filed After Trans YouTuber Allowed To Play On Women’s Football League, Reportedly Injured Players,” revealed the identity of a transgender male who had been the subject of mass complaint after reportedly injuring female players at a football game while playing on the women’s team.

This is something that seems very strange – how is it that *this* is what the “So Very Skeptic Atheist Bros” have thrown everything away for. Really.
They’ve quite literally gone from “Hurr, Religiot! Humans don’t have souls! You’re all stupid to insist on it!” to “Hurr! Of course I have a pink sparkly feeeeeemale identitay! You’re all stupid to deny it!”.
They’re right back agreeing that souls exist, and that they can be in the “wrong” bodies (by some mechanism that’s never made clear). Do they understand this, these Big Skeptic Bros?
It’s embarrassing, frankly. It’s the antithesis of everything they have been claiming when it comes to any other area. … Read the rest
Hmm. So the Supreme Court answers to no one, so the Supreme Court justices can…do whatever they like.
It was a short letter. John Roberts, chief justice of the US supreme court, was brief in his missive to Democratic senator Dick Durbin, who chairs the Senate judiciary committee. Citing “separation of powers concerns and the importance of preserving judicial independence”, Roberts declined to appear before the committee to discuss disturbing recent revelations of ethics violations at the court.

Barely a year after Democratic justices on the North Carolina Supreme Court said new maps of the state’s legislative and congressional districts were partisan gerrymanders that violated the State Constitution, a newly elected Republican majority on the court reversed course on Friday and said the court had no authority to overturn those maps.
The practical effect is to enable the Republican-controlled State Legislature to scrap the court-ordered State Senate and congressional district. boundaries that were used in elections last November, and draw new maps skewed in their favor for elections in 2024.

“Legal sex” here means “fictional sex.” It’s ridiculous. It’s not workable or reasonable to base laws on fictional “identities.” Eventually you’ll have everyone identifying as heir to the throne and entitled to all that cash.
