In what may be ultimately be seen as the first big blow against Cancel Culture madness, California’s Third District Court of Appeals ruled unanimously the state’s 2017 mandate that long-term care employees use a resident’s preferred pronoun is unconstitutional.
The International Olympic Committee medical director seems to think so
On Monday in Tokyo, Laurel Hubbard — a biological male — is set to represent New Zealand in the women’s weightlifting competition. Hubbard, who qualified within the rules, has exemplified what is wrong with those rules.
The 2015 decision by the International Olympic Committee to allow transwomen to compete as women — if their testosterone levels are below 10 nanomoles per litre for at least 12 months before their first competition — was wrong: no ifs; no buts; no maybes. Womanhood was effectively reduced to the results of a blood test.
The ‘birthing community’ is increasingly deluded about biology
A “pregnant man” emoji is incoming. Designed by Emojipedia, it’s due to be released by the Unicode Consortium later this year. The final approval of all new emojis won’t take place until September, although the organisation says that draft lists of designs have been approved without modification.

TOKYO (AP) — For Quinn, a midfielder for the Canadian women’s soccer team, the opening match of the Tokyo Games carried more emotional weight than their previous Olympic appearances.
Quinn became the first openly transgender athlete to participate in the Olympics when they started on Wednesday night in Canada’s 1-1 draw with Japan in Sapporo.
Quinn, who is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns, posted their feelings on Instagram.
Just say no to the Olympics.
Twenty-four states have banned the use of psychological therapy to treat the condition.
Transgender activists repeatedly assert that the only way to help someone who experiences gender dysphoria (meaning a person feels they are the opposite sex) is for that person to medically “transition.”
Therapeutic efforts with a counselor or psychologist to help someone overcome his or her gender dysphoria are today classified under the umbrella of “conversion therapy” and are widely denounced as evil and abusive. For instance, the Human Rights Campaign describes conversion therapy as “a range of dangerous and discredited practices that falsely claim to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity or expression.”

‘I was sexually assaulted in a women’s prison… by a fellow inmate with male genitalia’: Read Amy’s story and decide – can it be right to put trans sex offenders in female jails?
Her sense of shock, and the awful aura of menace that closed in on her, still haunt former prisoner Amy Jones.
Jail should have been a place free from the predators who had sexually assaulted and raped her in her childhood, but the terrifying presence looming over her suggested anything but.
‘The look in her eyes was frightening,’ Amy says, her voice quiet but assertive. ‘She leered at me before lunging forward and grabbing my breasts hard. She squeezed them and I cried out in pain. I was terrified she would rape me.’
The liberal elite’s failure to stand with JK Rowling is disgraceful.
Imagine if Philip Roth, when he was alive, had been subjected to anti-Semitic abuse every single day. Imagine if hateful mobs had bombarded him with slurs and threats. Imagine if he couldn’t so much as switch on his computer without being called scum, a cunt, a shit, with some people going so far as to send him extreme pornographic images and threats of violence. You imagine there would have been some pushback, right?
Politicians waved legislation through and the public isn’t happy
Ireland is the trans activists’s trump card. Whenever debate flares up about self-identification or the Gender Recognition Act or transgender rights, campaigners can say “There has never been any trouble in Ireland.” And governments believe them.
A transgender police officer with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey sued the agency over allegations he was referred to in a discriminatory way as “it” and “transvestite” by colleagues.

Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling, who has previously been accused of being “transphobic” after her 2020 essay, has doubled down on her rejection of toilet sharing with trans people amid a flurry of abuse and threats.
In a series of tweets on Monday, Rowling hit back at her haters and doubled down on earlier comments about the rights of transgender individuals to use women’s toilets and changing rooms.

While it seems like public schools are caving to the transgender lobby en masse, it is encouraging to see that a school board in Virginia is standing up to the nonsense.
The American Booksellers Association apologized Wednesday for a “serious, violent incident” in which it promoted a book about gender dysphoria that critics considered “anti-trans.”
The New York-based nonprofit that represents independent bookstores faced criticism after including Abigail Shrier’s book, “Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters,” in its July “white box” mailing sent to 750 of its member bookstores, Publishers Weekly reported Thursday.
