The Telegraph reporting on worrying data showing that young women who've been persuaded that they've been "born in the wrong body" and are on cross sex hormones are experiencing major problems from their use with 95 per cent developing pelvic floor dysfunction.

"Around 87 per cent of the participants had urinary symptoms such as incontinence, frequent toilet visits and bed-wetting, while 74 per cent had bowel issues including constipation or being unable to hold stools or wind in. Some 53 per cent suffered from sexual dysfunction".

And our sainted NHS have been contributing to this without conducting any research.

Trans men taking testosterone getting ‘postmenopausal’ problems aged 28’

Study found many had bladder and bowel symptoms they would expect to see in a woman after the menopause

Jazz isn't attracted to anyone sexually, he has no sexual function at all. He's "dated" boys and girls on the show, but it always seems like a pantomime, playing at doing the things sexually mature adults do.

His mother pushed him into transitioning as a toddler, no one has any idea how his sexuality would have developed had he not been medically interfered with.

Did Jazz’ mother transition him as a toddler? I thought it was as a tween? But I could be wrong there.

or are you thinking of Jackie Green? Thinking on that, didn’t both mothers laugh at their sons immature penises not being developed enough for inversion?

Horrific in both cases.

He was, and is, effeminate.

I don't watch the show, but was under the impression he 'dated' boys.

Given his parents considered him a girl, because he was such a feminine boy and that being gay is a strong indication that these children will be identified as trans, I think it's a pretty educated guess that he would've grown up to be a gay man.

Yes that’s the basis by which I said it, I didn’t think it was particularly controversial to recognise that most of these trans children would have simply grown up to be lesbian or gay. Regardless if people think it is an unfair assumption then I take it back, it wasn’t really the point I was making anyway

Pretty much all that happened to poor Jazz Jennings. But at least his narcisstic mother got the attention she so craved. He could have been living as a thriving young gay man now. I remember seeing a video where she described bullying him into extremely painful daily dilation of his new vagina surgical wound, threatening she would do it to him if he refused. Barbaric child abuse.

Yes. Renal failure and now on dialysis from what I understand.

I remember reading about another girl who had her bowel perforated during the surgery. She had faeces leaking out of her incisions but her worries and physical agony was dismissed. She ended up with a colostomy bag for many years. I pray the young transman who posts in mumsnet changes her mind. She has already suffered more surgery and physical hardship in her 30 years of life than most could even imagine.

Letting people change their NHS number is daft in the extreme.

Absolutely, these young women no longer get invited to cervical screening whilst AGPs do get letters.

Look up Exulansic on Twitter and Odyssee.

Some effects include:

  • obesity
  • osteoporsis
  • joint and nerve degeneracy
  • cognitive impairment
  • micropenis
  • anorgasmia
  • depression

I had to delete or block all those images from my Twitter timeline - absolutely awful, and vile and horrific. I'm neither squeamish nor a prude, but that model was just awful - explicit overt woman-hating on show.

Not sure if this has already been posted but it does give the impression of very dubious medical practice.

These risks need to be talked about with the young and often vulnerable people desperately seeking these treatments. It is terrible as well that gender clinics were so against providing information as advised in the Cass report. There is no accurate data on the long term outcomes of cross sex hormones.

That Ru Paul found this appropriate shows the complete lack of care for any female person. That was not a celebration of that surgery, that was a stark reminder of just how female people are still being used to prop up a male dominated movement and misogyny.

That's how I involuntarily see the picture of that woman.

Naked, surrounded by men dressed as women (not naked) absolutely salivating over female mutilation in order to prop up their own women hating fantasies.

Yes - there's this constant erosion of boundaries. 10 years ago if you'd had TV programmes airing these images there's be an uproar. The comments on that thread from women forced to have double mastectomies due to cancer are heartbreaking.
Yet it seems that in the interests of this ideology nothing is off the list. No boundary that can't be breached. No group that can't be appropriated / insulted or marginalised and (unforgivably) no group of vulnerable children / young people who can't be targeted and gaslit into believing that the false belief in "changing sex" is a cure for all their vulnerabilities.

It's despairing.

Does anyone know if that episode been aired yet on UK TV?

ArabellaScott · 28/05/2024 11:27

Yes, it's not 'lack of care', it's part of actually despising women.

Meanwhile RuPaul's drag race is featuring a woman triumphantly holding up what is meant to be her own breast tissue in clear plastic bags as a celebration, whilst she is standing there topless, blooded and with pretend surgeon's arms wealding knives around her mutilated chest.

For fucking TV ratings.

Our young women are being targeted like never before. They barely stand a fucking chance.

The glamorisation of double breast mastectomies as 'gender affirmation' is hugely concerning.

I remember on a thread bringing this up to have a poster who can only be described as an extreme trans rights activist casually dismiss double mastectomies, and phaloplasties and the life long negative side effects of testosterone as 'it is acceptable risk for the benefits of gender affirming care' (my paraphrase). That the brutality of these treatments is considered 'meh, it is just acceptable risk' is very concerning indeed.

But I can only ever see it as misogyny because it has been mostly male people pushing this need for affirming treatments. They have leveraged young women and children to achieve the position where 'gender affirming care' is to be considered life saving and cannot be questioned or discussed.

I don't know if anyone has seen anything written by Gruffin a transman/trans identified female who has had terrible health issues? It's just heartbreaking.

It is complete hubris to think that we can mess with biology as we please and for there to be no consequences.

Coming back to viques's point, it seems unbelievable that, given that maternity care as a rule is so obsessed with the health of the baby, with multiple antenatal checks, exhortations not to smoke, drink, eat soft cheese and so on, when it comes to testosterone apparently no one cares about what the impact on the baby might be.

Yes it's so noticeable. Everything must bow and give way to the sacred "truth" that is being trans – which cannot be tested for, proved or verified. If you're trans and pregnant, then you can do no wrong and your feelings matter more than the baby - yet if you're just a boring old woman having a baby, everything to do with protecting the baby's health in the womb is on you and you shouldn't be letting any harmful foods or medicines enter your body.

I don't understand how so many HCPs have ended up going along with this.

So many terrible stories - and yet today, this is still continuing with teenagers being convinced that changing sex will cure their problems - all aided and abetted by irresponsible adults and groups.
