apparently the new Netflix show Monster: The Ed Gein Story invented an "autogynephilia" backstory for their serial killer (because of course they did!). so time to re-up my collection of writings on this pseudoscientific zombie theory...

Good morning from Brighton, where we will be reporting on the counterprotest against the FiLiA conference 2025.

One restaurant along the march route also has bunting in support of FiLiA.

The same bunting was reportedly seen at Brighton Railway Station yesterday, however today it is nowhere to be seen.

Here is a line i hope some folks will take if called to speak on radio or TV about it.

If you have the spoons for it, your very first remark (irrespective of the opening question) is: "i am glad you invited me here today to talk about the wholly avoidable death..." (reference coroner's report)

I wrote an article in January about where we have ended up in English law re. "deception as to sex", and what that means for trans people. I think it's likely we can expect to see more of these sorts of cases going forward.

Oh do fuck off Wes Streeting.

It's not designed to intimidate women, it's designed to protest transphobia.

If I protest against racist scum, that's not me 'intimidating men', it's disagreeing with racism.

I am sick to fucking death him pretending that transphobe and woman are synonyms.

O’Brien stabbed the victim in the torso & back. He stood on her head. The attack continued for 5-6 minutes until nearby security staff intervened & he ran away.

Kelly suffered 50+ stab wounds all over her body. A piece of the blade is still lodged in her skull.

A man gets a blowjob from a trans woman and his friends make fun of him so he goes to the police to claim she lied about being a woman. She was convicted of sexual assault and sentenced to nearly 2 years in prison because of a man's shame.

And assuming the BBC's quotes from the judge are accurate, he believes a trans woman who has sex with a straight man is by definition a rapist, as he does not believe it possible for straight men to be attracted to trans women without being deceived (which is rape now, but only for trans people).

If she'd been married and lied about being single or if she'd been a convicted abuser and lied about that she would not be going to jail.

People lie all the time before sex, during sex and after sex.

If you're trans, that's a crime.

She's been jailed - to be raped every night.

She's in a male jail. Despite living as female since she was 13.

There’s no defending a law which functions in this way. Its only purpose is to criminalise transitude and gender non-conformity.

If you refuse to see this, you’re simply an enemy.

Another curious fact: under English law not disclosing your birth sex is rape by deceit, but if you’re a cop during an undercover operation and get people to sleep with you under a false pretence this way, the law see this as perfectly consensual and legal.

Even sex resulting in pregnancy after one partner lied about their fertility, or resulting in STD transmission after one lied about having an STD*, is not considered to legally invalidate consent, despite far more demonstrable harm than lying about body parts for sex acts not involving those parts!

The terrifying, brand new threat of people on TV misleading the public. I would say this one is not even in the top thousand most damaging bullshit assertions presented to the public this century so far, and quitepossibly this year.
