    Here is my Saturday essay in @thetimes on the unregulated medical experiment on children which is puberty blockers. Quite rightly, a judicial review & government inquiry are about to scrutinise this.https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/comment/giving-puberty-blocker-to-trans-children-is-a-leap-into-the-unknown-x3g37sb7f …

        A central force behind the medical transitioning of children is the charity Mermaids. As their submission to the Women & Equalities Committee shows here, they want to make it EASIER to prescribe these untested drugs to children. http://data.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/committeeevidence.svc/evidencedocument/women-and-equalities-committee/health-and-social-care-and-lgbt-communities/written/91159.html …

        They want to hound out doctors from gender clinics who urge caution. They want GPs to prescribe puberty blockers without psychological assessment. Indeed they don't believe kids as young as 10 need to talk about underlying mental problems before being put on a medical pathway.pic.twitter.com/vmSAWf27lL

        Companies like @Starbucks need to understand what Mermaids wants and believes. It is far from a benign, sparkly charity. It doesn't deserve a penny from public funds such as the National Lottery, nor from our pockets. ends.https://metro.co.uk/2020/02/04/starbucks-launches-powerful-campaign-support-trans-charity-mermaids-12179371/ …

        My transgender daughter wishes she coudl have had some. She is 6’3 and been unhappy since she was 8. It’s tough.

        I wish I had the body of a 1960s Sofia Loren. Hating your physical form is not exclusive , it is endemic in women see self harm anorexia, plastic surgery , diet industry. Making a child a medical patient for life should *never* be an option . Never.
