This thread is to document each time I am, or I witness others being shamed for talking about or expressing autoandrophilia (AAP) &/or autohomoeroticism (AHE), plus snippets of denial by either transactivists, feminists, or Gender Criticals...

@GregAbbott_TX I doubt they would be as tolerant if players wanted to express other religions or beliefs that didn't pander to certain demographics. They're free to do what they want, even if it turns some of us off. But players shouldn't docked for not participating in the proselytizing.

The Texas Rangers are the only team in Major League Baseball that doesn't host a Pride Night. This week, they're hosting Faith and Family Night instead. Meanwhile, MLB just warned Giants pitchers for writing Bible verses on their own caps. In Texas, we don't punish people for living out their faith. We protect that right. foxnews.com/outkick-sports…

@nobulart @EthicalSkeptic Seems like we may have already talked about it, but wouldn't the Ages go the other way, and current/starting S1 is in Pisces? Also, if S2 only lasts 50-400 years, it may still be in Aquarius, depending on how the Ages are calculated.

@elegationvain Yes, so detrans get disserved by either type of therapist, just in different ways. Affirm = dissuade from detrans, or "maybe you weren't really trans", or ignored. GC = it's because you were abused, confused by social pressures, etc.

@BigDTwo They operate on the premise of “gender identity”. Acknowledging A*P is even a factor for any is “transphobic”, so of course they can’t. What’s shocking is that the people who are trying to disrupt the gender ID framework are also ignoring A*P.

For the same reason we'll never get a cure for cancer. Too much money is made off it. Look at who's getting click$ & attention by talking about Page, including herself. No one talks about AAP &/or AHE or anything erotic, especially her, because she'll get shut down for it...

@ddd1ms @HashZappa Finally... oceanfront property in Arizona!

@HashZappa Now we talk business! I saw a nice slope at 5000ft for sale 😂😂😂

This sim project is wearing me down. I'm going to get the ECDO models out, and then publish the simulation calculation data for community feedback... might be good to get some outside opinions here. Going to take a few nights off from there. I feel like all I think about lately is what might be missing or needs further review etc etc. After 4 months of it, I'm tired. 😂

@elegationvain The same could be applied to affirmation therapists. They attempt to treat "GD" without understanding the core issue. I was extending it to the medical industry in general, which informs the public, who act on those messages.

@BigDTwo I am addressing GC therapists in that OP

@Docstockk Even given the outcome of the case, I still have questions. The whole incident, and the way the authorities and media (including social media) handles it, is odd. x.com/i/status/20657…

Have come back from weekend away, to find a load of people telling I'm despicable for an Unherd piece I wrote a while back on "Sophie of Dundee". Will link it below so you can read it/ more people can misunderstand it and tell me I'm a sneering disgrace, etc. Lat week the young girl's Bulgarian attackers were found guilty of assaulting her and pulling her hair, and I'm glad they were convicted. I hope they get sentenced accordingly. I'm now supposed to apologise for showing contempt for working class girls in my article - but I didn't. I know I didn't because I don't feel anything like that, never have, and never will. What I did do was (stupidly, I agree) believe Police Scotland when they said there was a lack of evidence to show any crime. What I also did in my article was to take the piss out of onlookers putting out Braveheart memes about the girl - that is a fair cop. That is: I mocked and criticised people - mostly uninformed Americans, I thought - who watched a 3 second viral video of a young girl with large knives, and tried to turn her into Mary Queen of Scots, or William Wallace. My general writing style is mocking and acerbic, and this piece was no different - but I was not mocking the girls (sorry but it is true) - I was mocking the perception of them in the US imagination at the time. (Yes, even the line about machetes and Irn Bru.) If you think it is a good idea to give a small girl carrying large knives loads of money and make a folk hero out of her, based on a three second video about which you know nothing else, I can tell you definitively (because I have asked some of them since) that plenty of Dundonians would disagree with you. And I still think the way the video was used was not in the girls' best interests. I obviously have regrets about how I wrote the article, in that it seems plenty of readers did not get what I was trying to do or say - but that is the peril of writing in public, and I take it on the chin. I realise this is not the apology some want, but its all I got. I hate fake apologies - and anyway, if I had to apologise to anyone, it would be to the girls, in private, for writing about the situation prematurely, not strangers on here who don't know me or my intentions, having the time of their lives ganging up. Muting this and every other thread now, as let's face it, there is not a lot more I can learn about what a disgrace I am - and if that applies to you, tbh I am not that fond of you either. Very happy if you unfollow me and continue to be deeply disappointed from a distance.

@YouDontKnowRage @EthicalSkeptic And to the wetland area

@EthicalSkeptic @BigDTwo Condolences to you and your family.

@wesyang No one has a right to defraud others. Pretending to be something they are not for sex is rape by deception, for one example of several.

Everyone has a right to pretend to be something they are not. It does not impose a duty on any other person to pretend with them. Elliott Page changed her name and is dosing herself with steroids but remains the woman today that she was before she began harming her endocrine system with wrong sex hormones and no one has to pretend to believe otherwise.

@Megiddo04079256 @MrAndyNgo I understood that. I'm just being my pedantic self

@BigDTwo @MrAndyNgo I wasn’t making an argument for Kinsey or “conversion therapy.” I was merely saying that at least conversion therapy has its basis in preexisting, mainstream psychology.

Reminder: Ellen Page railed against former VP Pence for believing in gay conversation therapy but shortly after she went through conversion therapy & surgeries, believing she is a heterosexual man. She & the liberal media promote that conversion therapy.

@Megiddo04079256 @MrAndyNgo FWIW, that chart misdefines "ambisexual." Ambi is basically the same as 3, having ambivalence or no bias about the sex of a potential partner.

@MrAndyNgo “Conversion Therapy” at least has a basis in the Kinsey Scale. It’s not defying objective biological reality.

IMO, Page never was a lesbian. More likely a flavor of bi.

I’m going to unpack some of this. 1. The premise that women are unknowingly carting around a Y (with SRY) is massively over exaggerated. The risk of Surprise SRY is minimal. 2. The risk of Surprise SRY is, however, non-zero. But in reproductively healthy women who have had periods and, more definitively, had kids is as near to zero as one can map in science. 3. That is, if you are a person who got a period before 16yo (ish), who has ever been pregnant or who has had the kind of screens that are offered to women (like cervical screening) without any drama, I’d bet my house you don’t have SRY. 4. If you have proof you have popped eggs and/or seen your ovaries, you would be almost singular (literally in the scientific record, the second case to my knowledge) if you also have SRY, functional or otherwise. If that’s me, with my entirely healthy reproductive system and physiology, I’m writing myself into a paper. 5. If you are born appearing female but actually carting around a Y with an SRY, it will almost always make it’s presence felt during puberty. You won’t menstruate, your GP might then discover unusual anatomy etc. Nobody in the U.K. should be getting Surprise SRY. 6. Ironically, Mums to boys are the most likely confounder (via fetal microchimerism). It should not need to be said that picking up some cells from the baby boy you’ve carried in your belly doesn’t change your sex. The carrying of the baby boy, almost certainly from your own egg, refutes that. 🙄 7. If, despite being an apparently healthy woman, you get a Surprise SRY, that means you’re an interesting woman, not a man. It also means that you won’t be excluded from female sport. Because whatever your genetics, sport is divided on bodies. 8. The lay person’s fascination with genetics and the cultural position that DSDs are “just normal variation” has led a fair amount of even normally-sensible people down a dumb rabbit hole. They are medical conditions that are really rare. 1/20k is a binned frequency that we use in genetics to describe things that are really rare. It’s not a measured number, it’s almost qualitative.

Guess what this popular 80s dance club tune is about. youtu.be/0vcjJKNq9EM?is…

And who exactly conducted this peer review of clinical standards that contains an entire chapter on Eunuch as a valid gender identity requiring eunuch-affirming castration? What team of neutral trustworthy experts peer-reviewed the non-binary chapter that says people should have the right to customize their bodies in whatever way they choose — such as nullification surgeries so the body has no external sex characteristics or bigenital surgeries if a person wants both sets of genitals? And who peer-reviewed the hasty post-publication removal of almost all the lower age limits from the adolescent chapter because Admiral Rachel Levine demanded it purely for political purposes? The very idea that WPATH's SOC8 is peer-reviewed is absolutely hilarious. Of course the truth is, when the guidelines in this field were actually examined in a peer-reviewed systematic review as part of the Cass Report, the conclusion was that WPATH and the Endocrine Society had engaged in a process of circular citations to manufacture the illusion of consensus when their recommendations are built upon nothing but ideology and the flimsiest of evidence. This led Cass to conclude that WPATH's standards, and all built upon them, "lack developmental rigour." These fanatics are fully deserving of all the language I used in the podcast. And much much worse.
