Adam Zivo: Danielle Smith embraces science-based transgender policies

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says that the United Kingdom’s recently published Cass report will inform the development of her government’s transgender policies. The document, which was produced by esteemed British pediatrician Hillary Cass after four years of investigatory work, convincingly shows that medical sex transitions for minors are risky and often unnecessary.

In an exclusive interview with the National Post, Smith said the Cass report confirmed that her government’s concerns about pediatric gender identity services are evidence-based. She said that she recently spoke with Cass to better understand her findings, and said, “If we want to take a science-based approach, we’ve got to use the best information available.”

‘Chestfeeding’ to be banned in NHS crackdown

The NHS is to crack down on transgender ideology in hospitals, with terms like “chestfeeding” set to be banned.

Victoria Atkins, the Health Secretary, will this week announce a series of changes to the NHS constitution which sets out patients’ rights.

Referring to “people who have ovaries” rather than “women” will also be prohibited under plans to ensure hospitals use clear language based on biological sex.

Daniel Dorman: When courts believe anyone can be a woman, justice is in jeopardy

In March, a decision from the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) used the words “a person with a vagina” to refer to a sexual assault victim instead of simply writing “a woman.” It was reminiscent of the infamous United States Supreme Court confirmation hearing of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson in 2022, during which she couldn’t define the term “woman.” It also harked back to a 2023 decision by the SCC, in which the court stated that the terminology around gender identity continues to evolve beyond the “binary of ‘male’ or ‘female.’”

Biden Admin’s Title IX Rewrite Obliterates Female Spaces, Free Speech, And Due Process

The Biden administration’s Department of Education unveiled a sweeping set of rules on Friday that effectively erase protections for sex-based spaces by expanding the Title IX prohibition against sex discrimination to include “gender identity” — a term that’s never mentioned in the original law.

A majority of Americans agree that males who claim to identify otherwise should not be allowed to infiltrate girls’ and women’s sports teams. As of now, some 25 states have laws or regulations aimed at keeping boys and men out of female-only spaces, on and off the field

Why the Rise in Trans Shooters?

Two theories for what we’re seeing with recent mass shootings.

Four mass-casualty shooters in recent years — the Aberdeen/Perryman, Md., shooter, one of the two STEM School shooters in Denver, the Club Q shooter in Colorado Springs, Colo., and the Covenant School shooter in Nashville, Tenn. — were transgender or “non-binary,” and the Perry High School shooter in Iowa apparently aligned with the cause of trans advocacy. Just this week, police in Montgomery County, Md., arrested a transgender high-school student in connection with alleged threats to shoot up an elementary school. Remarkably, most of these individuals have been females, which is unusual considering that such shooters tend to be non-trans men.

Save the Hollywood Children

Transgenderism is an epidemic in one population: Hollywood.

Americans must confront the scourge of child abuse amongst Hollywood elites. No, I’m not talking about the perennial problem of stage parents offering their children up as human sacrifices to the gods of fame and money. I’m talking about the abject evil of parents facilitating the transing of their normal, healthy children. It is child abuse. It must stop.

Trans woman who identifies as vampire sexually assaulted teen, charged in death of disabled man

A transgender woman who identifies as a vampire has been convicted of sexually assaulting a developmentally disabled girl — while already under investigation for allegedly strangling a man “possessed by a demon.”

Adam Hetke, 35, who goes by the name “Sabrina,” was convicted in Wisconsin last week of first-degree sexual assault by threatening the use of a dangerous weapon and second-degree assault of a mentally ill victim, GMToday reported.

JK Rowling: Harry Potter stars would not be forgiven if they apologise to me

Harry Potter author JK Rowling has criticised celebrities who “used their platforms to cheer on” the transitioning of children, suggesting she would not forgive the film franchise’s stars even if they apologised.

Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson have both previously spoken out in support of transgender people following comments made by the author, 58.

Her rebuke of the pair came amid a string of posts on X, formerly Twitter, following the Cass Review, which found that a lack of research and evidence on the use of puberty blockers and hormones had let children down.

Good for her.

Sexual Mutilation Fetishists blast Vatican’s new position on gender-affirming surgery as ‘dangerously ignorant’

Transgender activists and allies on Monday decried the Vatican’s new doctrine against gender-affirming surgery as “hurtful” and devoid of the voices and experiences of trans, non-binary and gender-diverse people, especially in its distinction between transgender and intersex people.

“The suggestion that gender-affirming health care — which has saved the lives of so many wonderful trans people and enabled them to live in harmony with their bodies, their communities and (God) — might risk or diminish trans people’s dignity is not only hurtful but dangerously ignorant,” said Mara Klein, a non-binary, transgender activist who has participated in Germany’s church reform project.

Vatican declares sex-change surgery & surrogate births grave violations of human dignity on a par with abortion and euthanasia

The Vatican on Monday declared gender-affirming surgery and surrogacy as grave violations of human dignity, putting them on par with abortion and euthanasia as practices that reject God’s plan for human life.

Titled ‘Infinite Dignity,’ the 20-page declaration – that has been in the works for five years – focuses on what it describes as threats to human dignity, including poverty, the death penalty, war, sexual abuse and the abuse of women.

After substantial revision in recent months, the text was approved March 25 by Pope Francis, who ordered its publication.

Barbara Kay: Lawsuits could be the answer to unfair, trans-inclusive women’s sports

These two things are true, and everyone associated with elite sport knows them to be true: i) males who have gone through puberty (and even before to a measurable degree ) are biologically advantaged over females in sports that demand speed, power and endurance; and ii) taking testosterone will provide an advantage to women competing against other women, but lowering testosterone will not erase the advantage of males who compete against women.

Feminists clash with pro-trans activists on march against anti-hate speech law

I bet.

Feminists protesting new Scottish hate speech laws have been abused by pro-trans activists.

Women marching in Edinburgh against Humza Yousaf’s new legislation, which prominent critics including JK Rowling warned could criminalise airing gender-critical beliefs, including the view that men cannot change their sex, clashed with pro-transgender counter-demonstrators, it has been claimed.

Pictures from the march show demonstrators draped in the trans pride flag holding abusive placards.
