Psychoanalyst Bob, who wrote the excellent piece for yesterday's Mail, has just gone head tp head with India W on GMB. I didn't see it, but there's plus one and catch up.

He's on This morning at 10.30.

He got a lot of good points in. I hope people pick up on the point he mentioned of people being coached, especially online, on what to say to get a diagnosis of gender dysphoria. I have seen this myself, though with adults.

And now I got the adverts for the boxed set of butterflies 😂

littlbrowndog · 19/11/2018 10:50

Yeah strongarms
How is Bergdorf qualified

littlbrowndog · 19/11/2018 10:48

Glad it wasn’t Ruth and her husband. That would have been unbearable
Bob got message over about protecting kids
Bergdorf banged on about the bigoted dm and how many children were now unhappy after the piece

I'm not sure how Bob could be accused of being biased by Munroe. He's a medical professional expressing a researched opinion. What qualifications does Munroe have? Honest question.

This morning being far less biased than they were with Posie. PS saying discussion is essential.

Going to be a phone in.

Thank you Bob Withers, well done for speaking out and that was a really good performance.

Anyone going to call in?!

bellabelly · 19/11/2018 10:45

Female presenter looking bored of teh whole thing!

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:45

Amen to that too.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:44

Withers sensible. Bergdorf ridiculous.

bellabelly · 19/11/2018 10:44

"I wish the left wing press would pick this up more." Amen to that!

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:43

Oh the suicide thing, wondered how long it would be before that manipulation would be thrown in.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:42

Bergdorf is so annoying.

bellabelly · 19/11/2018 10:42

"Munroe, please come in." Grin

RepealtheGRA · 19/11/2018 10:42

Anyone want to comment on PS’s Freudian slip of ‘fag’ WTF was that all about?

I’m liking Bob.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:42

Bob Withers v sensible. Why don’t they stop Bergdorf interrupting?

bellabelly · 19/11/2018 10:42

He's pushing back despite Bergdorf doing best to interrupt constantly.

littlbrowndog · 19/11/2018 10:41

Bob good there

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:40

Bergdorf interrupting again.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:39

Bergdorf mainly speaking.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:38

Annoying hair flicking of purple hair.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:38

Bergdorf sighing, and trying to interrupt. In high heels, obv.

SirVixofVixHall · 19/11/2018 10:37

He’s on now against Bergdorf.

LangCleg · 19/11/2018 10:11

Ooh, thanks R0!

This Jungian Life,
'ARCHETYPAL DYNAMICS OF GENDER TRANSITION'
(podcast)
"Lisa, Joseph, and Deb circumambulate the difficult issue of gender reassignment. They discuss the significance of teen girls wishing to transition and the current tendency to foreclose the meaning of this and move rapidly into medical procedures, a process of concretization instead of curiosity and exploration. Lisa discusses previous examples of symptoms and their diagnoses in history, leading to an understanding of the influence of cultural factors on mental illnesses and diagnosis. Finally, gender reassignment is considered as a Promethean venture, and although it is now possible to challenge the gods of genetics, it is also truly awe-full. We suggest that gender transitioning, like much else, can be psychologically transformative only if there is a conscious relationship to it."
