UK: out of women's hospital wards men who 'identify' as women

The woke initiative of the British Medical Association, which ordered its members to stop using the terms 'woman' and 'mother', is being answered by the Sunak government, which is reinstating the biological sex criterion and abandoning the gender identity criterion in the health service. Why we need to return to common sense

The battle rages in the UK over the physical and symbolic spaces reserved for women. The British General Medical Council, which in its guidelines ordered the deletion of the words 'woman' and 'mother', is shortly to be answered by the Sunak government's initiative to reinstate the biological sex criterion and abandon gender identity in the health service: MtF transsexuals -that is, biologically male- will no longer be housed in women's hospital wards even if they identify as women. This week [...]

Buying and selling human embryos and foetuses: first EU yes

A draft European Parliament (SoHo) regulation approved by a majority of Liberals, Socialists and Greens definitively opens up the cross-border market for 'substances of human origin' including gametes, embryos and foetuses. With the risk that national legislations may be bypassed by virtue of Brussels' instructions

The European Parliament approved in the first instance a proposal for a regulation that equates human embryos with cells and tissues, calling them 'substances of human origin', and opens the door to eugenics and industrial uses. The proposed regulation on quality and safety standards for substances of human origin intended for human application (or SoHO regulation) was approved on 12 September by a large majority of socialists, greens and liberals, despite the alarm raised by various expert organisations. Officially the [...]

The real world in reverse

There is no straight world -tradition- versus a crooked world -trans-progressivism-. The two opposing worlds perpetuate patriarchy in different ways but with the same goal: to maintain domination over women. A millennial distortion: male usurpation of women's physical and metaphysical spaces

The political and social debate sees the supporters of two world models clashing, a metaphysical and philosophical clash rather than a strictly political one. A controversy that as women we observe with perplexity: two opposing and seemingly irreconcilable models, tradition versus modernity, ancient and sacred values versus ubiquitous fluidity, the family of yesteryear versus the queer family.... On one side and on the other, champions of the patriarchal world who speak the language of the ideologies of the 'short century'. All claim to be on the [...]

Open letter to Health Minister Schillaci: medically assisted procreation does not increase the birth rate. On the contrary, it is among the causes of the demographic winter

Free homologous fertilisation and a €1,500 ticket for heterologous fertilisation: the minister announces new measures that would help stem the birth crisis. But it is the exact opposite: the more we feed the illusion of being able to postpone the birth of a child ad libitum - the results of PMA are poor: in more than 8 out of 10 cases it fails - the fewer children will be born. There is only one way: infertility prevention. Starting with correct information against the propaganda of the reproductive biomarket

Dear Minister Schillaci, we learn from press reports that as of 1 January next year the National Health Service will provide homologous fertilisation services free of charge and that it has established a co-payment for heterologous fertilisation - the responsibility of the region - which is expected to be around 1,500 euro. The provision would be part, according to him, of the measures against the birth rate in our country: less than 400 thousand births in 2022, the lowest number since the unification of Italy to date. In reality, as he explains [...]

UK, you can no longer say 'woman' or 'mother': woke provisions of the General Medical Council

Decision of unprecedented violence by the British Medical Register: the word woman must be deleted at every level. It cannot even be mentioned when discussing motherhood, childbirth, breastfeeding, menopause. Even 999, the emergency number, can no longer ask what sex the person asking for help is. The woke know very well that the female body is the main obstacle to the transhuman project. And they want to erase it even in language

It keeps happening: women and mothers must also be erased from the vocabulary, at every level. They do not give up because the maternal symbolic is the most resistant obstacle to the transhuman project. We will not give up either. Forget it The General Medical Council -the public body that maintains the official register of doctors in the UK- has replaced the word 'mother' with neutral terms in its maternity guide for staff. The updated guide for employees who become pregnant omits [...]

The new PD proposal on surrogate children is wrong: here's why

The idea is a facilitated 'rewarding' path -only four months- for the adoption of children born by gestation for others: a quasi-automatism that instead of counteracting it would encourage recourse to the practice. Moreover, a difference is made between this type of adoptee -GPA clients- and all others for whom the timing would not change. But the Constitution wants us equal before the law

The PD has deposited in the Senate -first signatory the cathodem Alfredo Bazoli, deputy vice-president of the PD group- a bill that provides for a 'special adoption' so-called 'affective' for the children of hetero or homo couples born from uterus for rent. Basically, it accepts the procedure of adoption in special cases of those born by Gpa for the 'intentional' parent, but calls for it to be accelerated to arrive at a ruling within four months. The court, therefore, the text reads, "shall verify whether the [...]

Female wombs in male bodies

The envious dream of all time -to be able to have children without women, to erase mothers, in short, the Grail- is getting closer and closer to being realised: in five to ten years' time, even biologically male trans people will be able to receive a womb transplant and conduct a gestation. An 'inclusive' wish-right that would improve their quality of life and alleviate the symptoms of dysphoria. While the lives and health of girls and boys born from these practices are of no concern to bioethicists

Euronews reports on the rapid progress of research on the uterus transplantation front, with particular reference to the request of trans MtF people whose bodies remain biologically male, while FtM people, if they retain their female genital apparatus, can undertake a pregnancy like any other woman: the 'pregnant fathers' that the mainstream press likes to report on are none other than women who self-identify as men. In the article, which we translate here, women are referred to as cis- women, suffixed [...]

Appeal to the FDA: no more silence on puberty-blocking drugs

A petition asks the US drug agency -which has never authorised the off-label use of these substances for girls and boys with dysphoria- to counter the misinformation that propagates these treatments as effective and safe and to demand studies to prove it.Between 207 and 2021, the number of minors treated has more than doubled and the FDA can no longer pretend it is blind.

On his site Gender Clinic News Bernard Lane reports on an important petition to the FDA (Food and Drug Administration, US drug regulator) to take urgent action on the unapproved (off label) use of hormone suppressant drugs to block puberty in girls and boys who identify as transgender. Although this use has never been approved by the FDA, it is not possible for the agency to ignore the possible harm to minors who are subjected to these [...].

Puberty blockers: pure experimentation on children's skin

Two very recent scientific studies show that in the absence of rigorous research and trials demonstrating long-term effects, the treatment of gender-nonconforming minors with drugs and surgery is entirely experimental and unethical. Even on dysphoria diagnoses there are no validating criteria and the risk of error is very high with dramatic consequences on the lives of the very young. But in Italy these 'therapies' do not stop

Two very recent studies -one published on 17 April by the scientific journal Acta Paediatrica and entitled A systematic review of hormone treatment for children with gender dysphoria and recommendations for research, the other made public on 14 April by Current Sexual Health Reports, entitled Current Concerns About Gender-Affirming Therapy in Adolescents- point to the pharmacological and surgical 'therapies' for children with gender non-conforming behaviour. by Current Sexual Health Reports, titled Current Concerns About Gender-Affirming Therapy in Adolescents- focus on pharmacological and surgical 'therapies' for girls and boys with gender non-conforming behaviour -recourse to puberty blockers, sex-cross hormones and scalpels-.

The trans lobby erases women and mothers

In an interview with Le Figaro, Marie-Jo Bonnet and Nicole Athéa, authors of Quand les filles deviennent des garçons, analyse the political and economic force of transactivism. And they define social and medical feminicide as the path of the many girls who decide to 'become boys'.

UK: Inquiry book published on the Tavistock case, clinic that 'cured' autistic children by transitioning them

BBC journalist Hanna Barnes struggled hard to find a publisher: the censorship we all know. But she finally made it. And now her sensational essay on the scandal of the Tavistock, a clinic for the transition of minors closed by the British National Health Service: puberty blockers casually prescribed to preadolescents with autism, trauma or psychological disorders. For years some staff tried to raise the alarm, but were intimidated and silenced. This is an entirely political issue, because the health of children is at stake. Thousands throughout the West lured by hammering trans-propaganda

Hanna Barnes is a BBC journalist. After conducting a thorough investigation of the Tavistock clinic in London, a centre for the gender transition of minors, and having discovered the wickedness of that service, she decided to turn it into a book. But it was not at all easy to find a publisher willing to publish it. Not because Barnes's work was not documented and rigorous, but because no publishing house could withstand the likely accusation of transphobia that the publication of the [...]

GenerAzioneD, Italian association of parents of minors who define themselves as 'trans', is founded

A guidance and information site to support and accompany mothers and fathers going through this complex experience: testimonies, interviews, and links to contribute to an in-depth debate that today does not find space in the mainstream media

The cultural, apolitical, non-denominational and non-profit association GenerAzioneD has been established. The association's primary aim is to inform about the problems of gender dysphoria/incongruence in children, adolescents and young adults. Through the dissemination of testimonies, news, national and international articles in translation and the promotion of opportunities for discussion, GenerAzioneD aims to foster the transparency necessary to ensure the best possible care for those affected. GenerAzioneD was in fact born from the meeting of some parents who shared the experience of having children [...]

USA: how gender ideology is affecting doctors' training

An article in the Economist denounces the infiltration of gender identity ideology into US medical schools. Which focus on the free affirmation of gender. For fear of transactivist protests. But also out of ignorance about the progress of medical research and over-reliance on the mainstream media.

The Economist published an article on the infiltration of gender identity ideology into US medical schools. The testimonies of whistleblowing students and lecturers highlight several problems, all of which can be traced back to the imposition of 'gender affirmation' as the only way to cure dysphoria. For example, the side effects of drugs prescribed even to children are concealed. In general, future paediatricians and family doctors are instructed to introduce children and young people who say they feel 'in the body [...].

Transition of children-i: how many are 'convinced' on TikTok?

Videos with the #039;hashtag #trans viewed more than 26 billion times. Young influencers celebrating their "recovery" after a double mastectomy. The social network most frequented by young people proposes the medical transition as cool and transgressive. Sex change becomes the new rebellion

While we read everywhere that TikTok was the most downloaded - and most profitable - app of 2021 worldwide, the Daily Mail published an article on the role of the Chinese social network in the increase of girls saying they feel "trans" in British schools. According to The Mail on Sunday's analysis, videos with the hashtag #Trans have been viewed more than 26 billion times. This is mostly material posted by very young "transgender" influencers giving advice on how to get surgeries [...]

Story of a detransitioner called Carol

'I was simply a lesbian, but I didn't accept it'. Her story demonstrates the dangers of a 'gender affirmative' model of care that accepts patients' self-diagnosis of being trans, standard practice in American transgender medicine.

Carol had long suspected that her daily life in rural California would be easier if she were a man. Yet she was amazed at how true this was. As a 'butch' (masculine) woman, (and 'not very smiley') she had regularly been treated with mild contempt, she says. After a double mastectomy and a few months of testosterone - which gave her facial hair and a gravelly voice - 'people, cashiers, everyone, suddenly became so damn [...].

The study by the American psychiatrist Lisa Littman is entitled "Subjects treated for gender dysphoria with medical and/or surgical transition who subsequently underwent detransition: Survey of 100 detransitioners" (full text here) Unlike previous studies, this research is conducted exclusively on people who underwent medicalisation for a diagnosis of gender dysphoria, and subsequently had [...].

Gender identity as seen by a young woman

Following the publication of an official communiqué on Facebook by 'feminists' and Alessandro Zan's re-launch in view of the debate on his bill in the Chamber today, 27 October, I felt it was my duty to make a few things clear out of respect for all women who, like us, do not feel part of this 'feminism'.

I have decided to respond point by point to this communiqué which once again does not fail to misinform. I strongly believe that the women who signed this communiqué do not have a clear understanding of the concept of 'gender identity' which has developed and spread in youth culture over the last few years and which has little to do with the protection of homosexuals and transsexuals. Gender is a social construct that is applied to women and men according to their sex [...]

Hormones for children: we can no longer remain silent. Appeal-denunciation by French intellectuals against 'the serious drift'.

Some fifty doctors, psychiatrists, thinkers and feminists are rebelling against the 'ideological stranglehold on children's bodies' and the mythology of transgender children. One day, they explain, we may regret having remained silent in the face of this 'theft of childhood', a medical and ethical scandal.

As we have already reported (see here) in many Western countries there is a sharp slowdown in the face of children's transitions, despite the recent "pilatesque" sentence on the Keira Bell case in the UK (see here). A further signal comes from France: together with the Observatoire des discours idéologiques sur l'enfant et l'adolescent, a group of professionals and researchers on childhood (doctors, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, lawyers, judges, public school teachers, philosophers, sociologists, etc.) about fifty personalities from that country are protesting against the discourse on the "self-determination" of [...].
