This is utterly shameful from Patrick Harvie 🇪🇺🌈 and the Scottish Greens. He is setting himself above the experts. He is no better than climate change deniers or anti vaxers. If Scottish Government Humza Yousaf allows this to go, then they are complicit in the science denial.

Patrick Harvie never deviates from his passionate defence of puberty blockers; drugs that prevent vulnerable children maturing physically. By a strange irony he appears never to have returned his award in the name of the PIE founder Ian Dunn. He surely deserves another

In my childhood, I remember this Red Riding Hood & Wolf doll. It provides important lessons in a world where bad men, including those in dresses (and who sometimes dress as women in their family), enter female safe spaces saying they are other than what they are.

Really good letter in today’s Observer relating to the role of the psychology profession in relation to how badly gender questioning children have been failed by the NHS.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 has descended into utter lunacy. The sooner we get rid of the entire Scottish Government the better. They've allowed dangerous misogynistic ideologues to control every public body. The lunatics have truly taken over the asylum.

'Nine year-olds at Lorne Primary School in Edinburgh have contacted MSPs with letters demanding they provide controversial gender-neutral toilets, which is illegal unless a school also provides male & female toilets.'

Ideological propaganda from the LGBTYS Charter

The VAST majority wanting to transition are teenage girls. Ask yourself why a teenage girl doesn't want to go through puberty and become a woman? The answer is straightforward. She sees the way men treat women and wants out.

Hi X

Can anyone answer WHY Nature is suddenly making so many developmental mistakes and slotting male/female brains into the wrong bodies?

Why are we not seeing a corresponding rise in say, the incidence of Downs Syndrome, or polydactyly, or microcephaly?

Why just this?

I remember the days when the Scottish Greens were all about science. Way back in the olden days. When I’d vote for them. #cassReview

He should resign. He’s not fit to be a government minister, with collective responsibility for the well-being for Scotland’s young people.

'Call for public inquiry into transgender ideology in NHS and schools

More than 130 MPs, peers, doctors and psychiatrists write to Rishi Sunak demanding a probe with the power to compel evidence'

SecondInternationalist I think that is unspoken but probably correct.

It has moved the discusion back to healthcare of such kids rather than puberty blockers being some sort of right of passage into The True Self.

Stonewall and Mermaids have lost control of the narrative. Everything shifted very quickly under their feet, and they are left with impossible tensions between looking like the experts and the good, and being on side with the frothing liars and violent activists.

Mermaids response is mostly stuff that could have been prewritten assuming a good outcome. You can feel the tension in what they have actually published.

I am sure they thought the Review would give them a pathway to 'business as usual' with perhaps even more money and facilities. There would be solemn nods to 'mistakes have been made' for a week or two and then it would be pedal to the metal.
