And looking at the actor’s images on line, they seem to know that when their face is not in a particular open mouthed position, their facial cues would be perceived as male.

Not that the producer choice of actor mattered for the story. But it is merely a comment on the success or not of puberty blockers.

Show quote history

If you watch the clip on X his gestures, head movements, hand movements (huge hands) are all male. Reminds me of my DSG, who is tall and slight (and male) and who walks and gestures in the same way. Entirely male.

Like the castrati.
I've been thinking that. A new generation of castrati, only this time in aid of looking feminine not sounding ethereal. And one day it will be seen as every bit as barbaric.

Lip filler makes it a bit unbelievable though. I thought it was illegal to inject under 18s? I'd be really concerned about (and sad for) a teenager coming into school with that.

I have just been catching up on Waterloo Road

In an earlier episode the new head was beaten senseless by an angry parent, kicked around on the floor but was soon back at work.

The head was seen declaring how she was wished she was as brave as the trans child.
