This is very good and I think a nice one to share with friends who may not be very well informed on the issues regarding children and politics.

She is such a good journalist.
It is distressing reading about the person who had gone through all that trauma-in the quest for what...a scarred arm for a "penis" that won't even function (as far as I know) as one.
There are so many parallels with e.g. anorexia-no-one would agree with the NHS prescribing laxatives to young people if they wanted them or affirm they were fat when skeletal. They would starve themselves to death.
Completely different, to me, when someone is of an age when they can harm themselves by e.g. taking drugs/drink etc. although even then interventions may be required (sometimes out of love for them).
It is like self will run riot-except instead of suggesting AA or Rehab-professionals are prescribing alcohol.

Just came on to see if this article was being discussedGrin
Cracking article and one I will be sharing far and wide. It really summarises what's been going on here and in the US.

Excellent article. Madeleine Kearnes is an incredible journalist.

Worth noting that she has received this violent threat: twitter.com/madeleinekearns/status/1114204715397599235

Because, when women say things men don't want them to say, men threaten them with violence.

I just mentioned the threat against MK in this thread about a new article, posted today, about abuse Joan McAlpine MSP has also been receiving: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3553508-6th-Apr-2019-The-Scotsman-Joan-McAlpine-defies-bullies-in-sex-and-gender-dispute
