Guardian: weaponised emotional blackmail from 14yo 'trans' athlete

[teawamutu]

The Guardian's rearguard action on reality continues. Apparently the problem is not the parents and authorities who conspired to lie to this boy, coddle his delusions, disadvantage all girls around him in the service of his own wishful thinking etc etc etc: it's definitely the people who pointed it out:

I am prepared to feel a little sorry for the kid, who couldn't have been exposed like this if the useful idiots around him had done their fucking jobs. But the Grauniad can fuck off with the tired 'beee kiiiind' shit as a solution. Been there, binned the t-shirt. We want our shit back.

The idea of some kind of brain and/or endocrine test to backup cross-sex gender feelings is often floated as if such a thing, should it exist, would be a benefit to people with cross-sex gender identities. I rather doubt it, quite the opposite is my guess.

Men who purport to want such a thing to validate their feelings, would obviously be pretty sad when it came up with "bog standard straight bloke"

"bog standard straight bloke" with naff taste

Yes I think it was “Translucent” who floated the idea of some groundbreaking science they said they had access to (sceptical on that, but moot point because it was never released) then had to swiftly backtrack due to TRA outrage (led by Katie Montgomerie ISTR) that at least some of their number might be invalidated by this transmedicalist approach, because a woman is anyone who says they are, right?

I was reminded of that little incident too (though you are much more on top of the details!)

Ultimately most of them know they aren't 'really' women and in many cases it's just a fetish. This would blow their cover completely.
