This is very cult-like behaviour

Yes. But with all the immediate affirmation by her peers, plus the fact that it has been viewed thousands of times, it is going to be difficult for her to backtrack. What lies ahead for her? Hormones, surgery? Her mother must be devastated.

Agreed, it's utterly wrong and tragic for these poor kids.

This thread is so refreshing!

She won’t be bullied into keeping quiet. I worry for the abuse she will get (see ‘bigot’ comments above). She’s a child and she can see how this is playing out in the real world. Why should a child have to point out the flaws?

There is such a contrast between the girl in the first link compared to the second.
The girl in the first video stands alone, no longer in school and excluded in the name of "inclusion". (She is now being homeschooled).

In the second the girl had an "Epiphany", two days earlier that she was "a guy"
Suddenly, she is the centre of attention, surrounded by her peers, loud cheers, hugs, validated.
It takes someone very brave to speak up against this.
I am not misgendering the second girl, it is clear from the video that her mother has not consented to her daughter being referred to as male

Reminds me of the girl in tears after a school decided to allow ‘gender’ changing rooms for sports. And the student who would now be allowed to change in the ‘girls’ changing room crowing and being very pleased with them selves.

Ah a young bigot. Brainwashed already to the lie that trans people are really going to be a threat.

So, you're saying that a middle-aged man's views on what it's like to be in school as a girl are more valid than the girl with the lived experience of being a girl, in a modern school.

Fantastic. I can't imagine being so self possessed at 14. Or even now!

It shouldn't fall to these young women but in the absence of common sense from adults I believe it will fall to a generation of angry young women to turn this around.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 14/06/2021 08:11

I worry that the tide will turn so that the bandwagon jumping bullies who were allies will swap over to ‘we are protecting women and girls’ and use this as an excuse to bully and attack gay people (or ‘gender non conforming’ people).

Just sending someStanding for Women postcards, to this courageous girl and to some US senators....

"I dyed my hair last night so that I could feel more masculine" Eh?

I've never seen a correlation between hair colour and sex. You get blond/brown/red/black hair in both males and females in the same proportions. So how does dyeing one's hair make one more masculine.

Come to think of it, I don't know a single man who has ever not been happy with their own natural hair colour. Whereas I know loads of women who have dyed their hair blonde or who go to some effort to conceal greying. It strikes me that dying hair is more of a feminine activity.

@DdraigGoch. I thought that too. She seemed so childlike in what her perception of being "a guy" actually means.
