If you have a trans identified family member, this piece by Emma Thomas may be a useful read for you. She talks about growing up with an autogynephilic dad, and how Genspect's "Beyond Trans" groups for family members offer understanding and solidarity for all. genspect.substack.com/p/the-quiet-lo…

How one family held the line while their daughter tried to become a boy. When Jeanette’s daughter was thirteen, she became caught up in what Jeanette describes as the transgender contagion spreading among adolescent girls. Almost overnight she began to recreate her own history, abandoning activities that had previously brought her joy as she joined a growing number of teenage girls claiming to be boys. genspect.org/the-desistance… #detransitioning #detransitioner #testosterone #transkids

𝗝𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲’𝘀 𝗱𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗮 𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝟭𝟯. She insisted she wanted to cut off all her hair, dye it black, dress like a boy, and wear a breast binder. Her mental health plummeted. The stress of pretending to be a boy at school resulted in habitual stomach aches. This clip is a snippet from the full video where Jeanette discusses how they successfully reclaimed their sweet daughter before she reached adulthood. From holding the line with her birth name and pronouns to monitoring her communications and phone access. All the while incorporating regular mother-daughter, and father-daughter, activities into their routine. #gender #detrans #trans

What happens to the family members when one person’s identity becomes the centre of everything? This powerful piece explores secrecy, shame, and the long shadow it can cast—and why support spaces matter. genspect.org/beyond-the-lon…

We’re sorry for misleading you, but there were actually MORE than 70 detransitioners in Washington on March 12th. Genspect sponsored 70 detransitioners to attend, but others paid out of pocket to be there. Some people weren’t comfortable being photographed, which is why not EVERY detransitioner who attended is in this picture. Hope that clears things up!

Some accounts have been questioning Genspect’s claim that 70 detransitioners attended Detrans Awareness Day this year, because there are only 42 detransitioners in this photo. We’ve been caught red handed, and we’ve decided we need to come clean…

Not one, but two members of the US government spoke at Genspect's detransitioner conference in Washington DC on Thursday. I've written not one, but two blog posts about their respective speeches. You can read them in the links below.

Wonderful speech at such an important conference, organised by Stella o Malley - who was both indefatigable and inspirational all day long. It was such a privilege to be there and to learn so much from all of the very brave and very articulate detransitioners. 🙏

Honored to speak at @Genspect. When it comes to the health of our children, we must follow the science, not the politics. 🇺🇸 #MakeAmericaHealthyAgain

Dennis Kavanagh of the Gay Men’s Network pulls no punches: "How much of an expert do you have to be when the MHRA medical regulators say some of these kids are going to have heart attacks? They’re going to get breast cancer. They’re going to experience blood clotting ... You don't need to be an expert to look at the data and see what happened at the Tavistock. We should be angry about this. This is 21st-century gay conversion therapy. And it’s a species of harm that is particularly visited on young girls."

Honoured to have addressed the puberty blocker parliamentary lobby yesterday in a slightly ranty way. Huge thanks to Emma for organising, Venice for all her work and Lily for the recordings in this thread where you can see all the speeches.

We believe the public deserves access to reliable data, organized intuitively and presented in clear, jargon-free language. Our goal is to provide those questioning their gender with full access to the facts, while also helping their families, friends, and loved ones to see the bigger picture. @statsforgender is a tool we offer to support those looking for evidence on the multiple harms of transition. statsforgender.org

Very good point made here that isn’t properly explored as part of the media narrative that the various stages of ‘transition’ are separate and ‘pick n mix’, with some bits reversible and some not, rather than an conveyor belt. Breast-binding, promoted here by the BBC x.com/bbcthree/statu… is portrayed as a part of social transition because it’s about presentation and ‘expression’. That means its profound and permanent physical impacts are ignored. Similarly with ‘tucking’ the penis and testicles. See more here from @genspect on the medical damage done, and on media claims that both are not only harmless but beneficial open.substack.com/pub/genspect/p… Because there are no drugs or surgeries involved, binding and tucking are portrayed as wholly reversible, just like the clothes and pronouns of ‘social transition’: part of a watching and waiting period. But not only are they the initial steps on the road to drugs and surgery, they’re not reversible even if they stop there, and drugs and surgery are not pursued. However far a ‘transitioning’ person walks along that road, they can’t undo it and go back to the beginning. All they can do is move off it and take a different path forward. None of it - none - is reversible.
