Podcast for schools on 'Trans Euphoria' in children

I've some across this podcast on twitter. It's by a male trans educational psychologist ,and seems to be a whole series for other educational psychologists and schools promoting gender ideology.

I've only listened to a bit of a couple of them so far, it seems to be using the concept of gender identity and linking to this to lots of 'research' and 'evidence.'

I'm going to try to listen to a bit more if I can bare it. I'm concerned that psychologists in schools are so openly promoting this dangerous nonsense.

Has anyone else come across this?

Bloody hell.

This sort of thing is popping up all over the place.

As a retired educational psychologist with many years experience of specialist SRE teaching and training I find this horrifying. I have also worked with young autistic people, many of whom wished to change gender (you cannot change sex) because they thought it would make their lives better. It is working with them to manage their autism which makes their lives better. Many psychologists have what are called gender critical views but dare not express them for fear of repercussions. I hope the recent Rachel Meade victory will help.
I would suggest you follow @Psychgirl211 for interesting information on this area.

Well, apparently we aren’t allowed to
point out that ‘Gender Euphoria’ is a euphemism for a particular fetish act anymore!

even though I linked to someone who worked in gender clinics for 15 years to show that I wasn’t making it up!

And agreed OP. Ed psychs can have a disproportionate impact on schools as they're identified as experts. When they allow their personal beliefs, fantasies or delusions to overtake their professional knowledge, it's a massive problem. FWIW, I've known some excellent ed psychs - and some who I wouldn't trust to empty a wastepaper basket.

I agree it's grim, but I think it should be given more attention as this person seems very influential in the educational psychology world.

Educational psychologists are working in schools and many children referred to them identify as trans.

There is also a pushback being led by the same edcuational psychologists who promote Cora, against the schools guidance. They are coordinating a response and encouraging schools to ignore it.

That’ll be his ‘gender euphoria’ then!

Hmm, interestingly educational psychologist Cora Sargeant who hosts this podcast on gender euphoria in children is the same person who talked about his erection and excitement when being treated by a pretty nurse....

Yup

My 10 year old came home the other day and said the school told them that he could become a woman if he wanted and that some people are "born in the wrong body". We've already been warning him beforehand that the school would pull this shit on him at some point so he came home incredulous that they would spout these lies to them. I still cannot believe we as parents are not allowed to pull them out of those lessons.

They refer to research and call themselves a 'gender scientist'. They seem to focus on 'research' which is lived experience based. But I can't see any links on the podcast page.

What really worries me is that this is being shared by educational psychologists who run LA services, and who represent educational psychology in the British Psychological society.

Cora Sargeant the trans psychologist who produces this podcast, is a tutor at Southhampton Uni on the course whihc trains educational psychologists. Many of whom appear to do 'research' supervised by Cora.

This isn't a kooky outlier in eductaional psychology, this represnts the mainstream of the discource on trans kids in eductaional psychology.

I can't see any educational psychologists pushing back on the promotion of this.

Do they happen to provide clickable links to the research? Or is it just saying that there is this research?m and never providing it?
