ActivismThere are only 8 days left for Keira Bell’s fundraiser.
Keira Bell is a detransitioner that is taking Tavistock to court.
“This case is to challenge the existence of 'gender identity' in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Conversion Therapy document. This current document prevents clinicians from helping children suffering from gender dysphoria to be at ease in their sex.”
This case could effectively legally link transing children to conversion therapy.
Not to be confused with the other, more widely known court case against Tavistock that she is involved in.
I have the original that was published in 1999 and downloaded the 2014. This chapter is like night and day between the two books.
I really hate how Gender Ideology has seeped into the things I love best: books.
So far the Mystery genre umbrella hasn't been effected, yet. But Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Horror definitely has because it's speculative fiction. It's malleable enough for the insertion. There has been a certain amount of frequency of writers going into Trans subs asking for information.
Interesting, what are some of the differences (seems like a lot!) between the two versions?
I agree. Talking about intersex people or people with AIS in the context of gender is harmful and cruel. Now that I've read this chapter, I have the language for participating in conversations about intersex people. I won't though, because the LGBT cult doesn't allow conversation, but I would be ready.
I haven't looked, but I wonder if that later materials at the end of this edition talk about "lady brains" and our wider brain diversity in genes expressed from the X chromosome. The research was just beginning. We need more research into the female body, but I guess anyone reading this book already knows that.
I appreciate how she started this chapter with an argument between a man and a woman, then revealed that it was about her parents, and the effect it had on her. She's very good at balancing dialogue, interviews, and expository passages.
It's really a shame how so much of the inclusivity movement has started with good intentions (body positivity,
intersexVSD* language, mental and sexual health awareness) and it's all become something so stifling and unproductive.*Variations of Sexual Development
