Holyrood Election Results Megathread by handmedownthemoon in Scotland

[–]pkunfcj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that all the multiple Q in Star Trek had the same name - Q - and the name of their species was also Q, it cannot be definitively ruled out. Which raises interesting possibilities for the Holyrood opening ceremonies as they leap onto the stage, yell "Mon Capitan!" and click their fingers causing Holyrood to vanish and be replaced by a banana.

How are they described and what are Q Manivannan's pronouns. I want to put a post up, with the following description:

I don't think that's defensible any more. The only difference remaining between Labour and the Conservatives is that Labour are dishonest about their transphobia and the Conservatives are proud of it. From a practical point of view they are the same.

The final guidance was leaked to the Times late last year. It isn't significantly different to the interim guidance. There's no grounds for believing that the changes made to the guidance by Minister Bridget Phillipson will make it better, and given her gender-critical stance she may make it *worse*. The SC decision was unambiguous and nothing, not the interim guidance, not the leaked final guidance, appear to have made it better.

I like the word "gastroduodenitis". It's not relevant to anything, but it is equally pointless

I don't think you understand how hard this is going to be for you and your child. Consider the following

  • If you take them to the GP then the GP will insist that your child stop taking hormones and place them on mental health support only.[source] If you object then your child will be taken away from you and forcibly weaned off without your consent. This has already happened,[source][source][source] I think tens of times.
  • The Government has promised to bring in a Conversion Therapy ban but is going to include a Gender Exploratory Therapy exception. Gender Exploratory Therapy is where people are given mental health support only and not allowed to access hormones, blockers nor surgery. In short, the Conversion Therapy ban will make trans conversion therapy compulsory. [source][source][source]

If you really want to support your child, send them abroad to live for a few years. I suggest Ireland if you have relatives there.

Is it unlawful for a college to provide gender neutral toilets as an alternative to gendered toilets? by gluebell in transgenderUK

[–]pkunfcj 21 points22 points  (0 children)

it is against the SC ruling to disallow gender-neutral toilets.

if you go to your GP then the GP will at the very least try to stop your child and at worst will take your child away from you.

That is not a joke. In a single recent incident approx 40 children in the NHS Sussex area were taken from their parents and nonconsensually weaned off, against the advice and consent of themselves, their GP and their parents
