safeguarding concerns - is anyone able to summarise?

[LayAllYourLoveOnMe]

I am getting closer and closer to speaking my mind on facebook and feel that my most legitimate angle is the safety of children and young women, especially autistic girls and young women (I suspect i have mild ASD myself).

I know that the correct thing to do is to say "I am against XX (self-ID) etc because i have safeguarding concerns)" and then pause.

What I want to be able to do next is follow up very succinctly.

Is anyone able to link me to some good materials.

Thank you

This article covers the key issues with giving children GnRH analogues ("puberty blockers") off label to treat gender-related distress. The treatment has not, to the best of my knowledge, been approved in ANY country for this purpose. It is purely experimental, with known life-changing side effects.

There are also issues around guidance going into schools which says that if a student discloses they are trans this should be a "secret".

Keeping secrets is against safeguarding principles.

Plus obvious safeguarding issues around mixed sex sports / overnight accommodation etc

Also the wider issue of queer theory based teaching of sex and relationship education in schools and inappropriate sexualising of children (which is also a key element of grooming), like the recent case of Warwickshire County Council who had a website teaching children about bukkake etc. It mentioned flashing and rubbing up against people on public transport without mentioning they were illegal, I think.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine and Ereshkigal I think those are a better description of what OP had in mind!

The issue with experimental treatment is more my own main safeguarding concern with regard to kids with high functioning autism. The developmental norms for girls with autism are simply different (later social stages, and more stereotypically masculine interests and thought processes) than neurotypical straight girls. Gender ideology presents itself as both a reason and a medical solution for these differences. So the concern for me is that this is why so many girls on the spectrum are being given these powerful treatments without proven evidence that they will help.

Thank you all. Very helpful to gather it up.

All the above and then language and laws.

A woman cannot be discriminated against for needing to breastfeed/pump at work as men can do it too.

Some men can get pregnant and therefore women do not need maternity leave.

Some men can have babies and should be able to remove the word mother from birth certificates (tried and failed).

A man can be a mother/woman/
A man can win in the women's 100m.
A woman can be a rapist
and then I get lost down the rabbit hole with prisons and Yaniv and sport....
