A lovely simplified system is required so that everyone in the country can apply for a GRC

highame · 17/03/2021 15:57

leafstamp I think the word bollocks is very relevant

highame · 17/03/2021 15:56

They are saying delay caused all sorts of problems when in fact Stonewall was going ahead saying self id was coming in and so many changes took place before women realised what was going on

@highame

No mention of the consultation being a troll exercise. Self declaration is now the new word, not self-id
We're going to have to watch out of for this new word.

Is it me or is Jane talking absolute bollocks?!

Jane just said that there was a lot of anti trans pre populated responses and most responses from the public were supportive. Is that right ?

highame · 17/03/2021 15:54

Now saying the public were supportive. Yes they were and that was before anyone knew what was going on

How many times can Nancy Kelley get "anti trans" in!

JustTurtlesAllTheWayDown · 17/03/2021 15:51

Interesting juxtaposition of 'GRA must not be medicalised' alongside 'inappropriate puberty means blockers are necessary'.

@Leafstamp

It would be helpful if they introduced the next speakers. Who has just asked the question about the GRA consultation?

Time for Anti trans mobilisation - I like that. So in other words do things in secret otherwise vipers find out

Changemusthappen · 17/03/2021 15:50

Mmm - GRA questions - you gave everyone too long to respond and our flooding by trans people was spotted....

@OvaHere

OMG - Cat saying puberty blockers should be prescribed from the first stage of puberty. This is very distressing to hear, advocating rendering children infertile.

Is that the person who transitioned aged 58 after spending the majority of their life as a male pilot?

Yep.

the word trend just came in then that was a bit of a mistake (talking about young girls) Will have to see how it looks in future. What on earth

highame · 17/03/2021 15:46

@jeaux90

Yes, let's all agree we need to intervene in the puberty of children. FFS
Difficult to reproduce here without the audio, but this was alarming:

"the damage done by testosterone done during puberty"

OP posts:
highame · 17/03/2021 15:45

Inappropriate puberty. So the argument now onto wanting kids to early transition. So now it's about waiting lists and that being the only reason why kids are going through puberty whhhhaaaat

Bed Bradshaw doing well

Changemusthappen · 17/03/2021 15:44

What is socialisation of a young trans person?

Stonewall: "Our positions are really closely aligned with Mermaids as partners"

highame · 17/03/2021 15:42

Guidance for schools tells you what you're not supposed to do but then again Stonewall, you were in schools and causing all these problems by misinterpreting the law. oooohh for good ness sake she just mentioned LGB

teawamutu · 17/03/2021 15:42

This doesn't have any force in law, right? Govt would have to agree?
