‘Bodies are not inherently male or female. They are just their bodies,’ Kirrin said during the trial. ‘Biological sex is made up of a multitude of characteristics that change over a person’s life-cycle.’ For Kirrin,it’s self-evident that any person with a penis who says he’s a girl should automatically be allowed access to any women-only spaces, even a refuge for female rape victims. As a born woman, wrongly assigned male because of his penis, the penis person has always had the right to enter, you see. ‘I take issue with the words “allowing access”,’ said Kirrin. ‘It’s about removing access, removing a certain section of women from services because they are trans.’

Kirrin is in many ways a hero – and I mean that sincerely. Many gender activists are sneaky, putting into the public domain only things they think palatable to normies. This is the way of the cult. In being candid about his core beliefs, Kirrin has done a service to me and to other parents who might otherwise assume that LGBTQ+ activism in the 21st century is a simple bid for equal rights.

So it’s time for 21st-century parents to organise – if only we had the bottle.

Not popped into Mumsnet much has she?

There's a decent attempt at a transcript on Sex Matters vivariumvivariumsvivaria:

Nice and clearly written. I wonder if she and DH still have 'pull' with the Tory Party?

She says she read the transcript of what Kirrin said.

Anyone know where I can find that comedy gold to mine for nuggets to send to my bat shit governing body?

I know nothing about her, but that's a good article. On another thread I linked to a US article which talked about 'snowplow parents', constantly removing obstacles from their children's path rather than helping them learn how to deal with the obstacles for themselves. Similar to Wakefield's egg and spoon parent idea. Nobody can avoid pain and unhappiness in life. Parents who jump at a short-term solution to keep their children happy often seem to close their eyes to the longer-term consequences, which are not going to be pretty.

Oh I can’t see them as I’m not a subscriber.

Out of political interest, she's still married to Dominic Cummings isn't she? Who is rumoured to be supporting Rishi Sunak's bid for the Tory leadership?

It's about time the Tory elite noticed what has been happening for years on their watch. It certainly might make the hustings interesting if Sunak decides to really rumble Mordaunt on this - the deception, the damage, the capture, the ideological incoherence in schools ...

I was going to say the same @334bu - better late then never!

Good article @Birdsweepsin thanks for sharing. Shame she doesn’t mention the Cass review and actions by Sex Matters and others to flag up these issues

Not read the comments @Hoardasurass i will go back and look 😊

334bu · 15/07/2022 09:56

No, but never too late to join the party..
