#UK #TransRights An FOI has just confirmed what all of us have feared: for the Youth gender services, since July 2024, not a single patient has been referred to commence HRT. And 22 have been moved from youth to adult services , also without treatment. This is scandalous.
And to everyone else who loves to criticise and can all do so much better. Go right ahead, I'm not stopping you. Buf lef's check back in six months and see how your mood after you've read through endless coroner reports, meeting minutes with the most infuriating decisions which oppose patient care

if you're going to lose your cool after not being replied in lightning quick time, then you're not going to achieve much.
FYI. I did read the article and they have found I think 16 or so, but nothing comes even remotely close to the "1000s" of their claims.

#UK #Transrights Can someone please EXPLAIN TO ME how it is possible that the government adds a factsheet describing police powers, which grants them access to basically any device without so much as even a suspicion of illegal activity, And how it's written opens the door far and wide to hacking.

#UK #Transrights It seems the DfE is happy with single sex accommodations if schools want to implement it. Discrimination embedded in policy, despite only a snall percentage of schools being like that. Any child that has socially transitioned best check their school's position on single sex spaces.

Thank you for support from Monkey Cage listeners - I am asked many questions - this by @skepchick.org is the beginning of some answers - to be supportive of trans people & trans allies made me an extremist and too political - this explains some of that process

#UK #Transrights Judging by the response, it appears that the NHS is having difficulties finding detransitioners. But obviously that won't stop them from putting all their focus detransitioning. As valid as detransitioning is, no detransition is going fix society. And the root cause of

@jessdkant.bsky.social Hi Jess, great article. I did have a question. When I downloaded the csv file, there seems to be a UK specific gap on "gender identity". Any idea what has caused the absence of data for that term for most of 2023.. See screenshot of the pivot table built from the dataset.

#Boxing #ImaneKhelif I've had to do some actual digging to find the interview with Imane Khelif. And as I suspected, the British media are lying about what was said. They now all claim she has a Y chromosome and accompanying SRY gene deviation. That is INCORRECT. In the interview they clearly state

#TransRights #Kaltiala I have very little doubt that Dr Kaltiala is up to no good. An embnargoed document, where the embargo remains in place until September 2026? That's a long time. So what don't they want people to see? It appears that she is now looking to link Bipolar to the list of factors.

#UK #Transrights The Scottish statutory instrument which introduces sex as a protected characteristic and has this section in it. I'm not a legal expert, but this can easily transform into a defining characteristic that can be used to simply put any transgender person outside of legal protection.

#UK #Politics If you want to get an idea of how the government views risk and what they will do to manage them, a good place to start is the national risk register. That should give you an idea of the priorities of materialised risk. assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/67b5f8...

The androgens used for HRT treatment differ primarily in their physiological purpose, potency, and safety profile when comparing them with DCMT or Oral-Turinabol. As a result potentially side-effects and dangers are also very different. The big difference in potency of the 2 classes of testosterone

#TransRights #CatholicFaith A good article to learn more about how the Catholic church regards transgender people, is included below. It points out the issues coming from the Pope's letter "Dignitis Infinita" and points out how his public image very much differs from what the letter dictates.
