About training provided by Agender to civil servants. it's quite mindblowing bollocky nonsense:

I think a lot of these training things from other outfits were brought in when SW were being exposed more. It's the same stuff under a different badge. It's all wrong, it all breaches public sector impartiality, none of it follows the law but the agenda of lobby groups.

Intersting. GB seem to have removed their client list from their website. Their used to be a list on there that I think included places like the Ministry of Defence etc.

Is this Global Butterflies who are doing the training? They are as bad if not worse than Stonewall but fly under the radar much more successfully. If you look at their client list they 'train' some very big and influential companies.

There's also this:

Official video says you can’t define ‘woman’

An employee says:

“It is definitely against the civil service code, which says we should be dispassionately following the law and government directives without any concern for our own opinions. It’s the corruption of what should be an impartial body.”

There is also an article about the training:

I'm grateful as ever to Janice for shining a light.

People that work in central government are given a D&I questionnaire that asks about their beliefs in gender woo. If they indicate that they are not adherents, they are sent for further training. So they lie because they don't want to get their cards marked.

It is not a place where women can speak up.

It's just so much nonsense. As Janice says, complete drivel.

Emma states that while sex is randomly “assigned at birth” there is a “biological component to gender identity, like height or ethnicity: it is inherent, innate”.

  • *No, no it bloody isn't. I thought all these things had to be evidence based?

The thing is, it's not enough to expose this for the claptrap it is, it needs to be dealt with. It's dangerous.

When debate is not allowed, none of these pseudo-science creations can be debunked in a way which would become public information. The information exists, but only those who can read research studies really get it.

Oh good. My taxes are being used to fund brainwashing of government employees.

How about less brainwashing and less taxes? How about civil servants get trained on how to do their job, and only that?

Where the hell is the Minister for Government Efficiency?

It seems a bit strange that Emma is 'intersex', aka has a DSD. Not usual for someone with one of those medical conditions to go round lecturing people about an ideology.

nepeta · 03/06/2022 23:07

From the article:
Emma warns that defining a woman as an “adult human female” is a transphobic dogwhistle, equivalent to antisemitism. She claims that sex-based rights, which feminists speak of defending, don’t even exist. “We have equal rights!” she cries.

I am going to embroider "a transphobic dogwhistle" on a t-shirt or two. The back will say "= an adult human female."

Or perhaps the whole thing on the front?

"An adult human female=a transphobic dogwhistle"

Or "And adult human female=woman a transphobic dogwhistle.

The whole thing is hair-raisingly hilarious! Especially that it cannot be recorded, because they didn't want this to come out.

Also, I want a set of new brains in jars, to keep in the pantry. When I wake up in the morning and feel particularly masculine (perhaps scratch my groin? burp?) I will insert a blue brain from a jar. When I wake up in the morning and feel particularly feminine (cry over my bedhair? giggle while dancing to the bathroom while tilting my head?) I will insert a pink brain from a jar.

PearPickingPorky · 03/06/2022 22:48

Glad someone recorded that.

This might be useful for anyone in the civil service who needs to bring a discrimination claim.

Clangyleg · 03/06/2022 22:47

So glad that women are getting this rubbish out there. Is this training mandatory? Shame on the unions too.

Melroses · 03/06/2022 22:35

Just read that.

Can't believe this sort of 'training' is still going on.

Thanks for posting.
