Lovely to hear Jack J talking about the arts. Yesterday, in Wells, Somerset, I was delighted by Opera in a Box’s production of The Magic Flute, which was magical and, refreshingly, woke free. If you get the chance, take in a show by Opera in a Box. I’m pleased to big-up the woke-free arts. Enjoy. Ch (PS And, thanks Clive and Jack D, for your show too, much appreciated.)

33:00 What I have noticed negatively for some time is that some feminists, including some male feminists, no longer make a distinction between older AGPs and young men whose puberty was blocked. On X I am increasingly seeing posts where boys like 16 year old Kai Schriever, son of Naomi Watts & Liev Schriever, are dragged through the mud because he is considering a career as a model. They do not even shy away from calling him a porn addict even though Kai was already treated like a girl at primary school age. The same accusations are being made against 21 year old Alex Consani and Hunter Shafer, whose castrati voices are proof that their puberty was blocked. I cannot understand why some “gender critical” make a distinction between female and male victims of transhausen parents. Children can either consent to puberty blockers or they cannot. But they probably think that only girls cannot do it and boys can do it because of porn.

One feminist X account even went so far to play Minority Report by implying what crimes puberty blocked boys could commit against women in the future. She claimed they will pose a greater danger because their looks and voices makes it easier for them to invade female spaces.

I agree and that kind of broad-brush labelling is extremely unhelpful. For some of those people women and girls can only ever be victims of this toxic ideology and men and boys can only ever be perpetrators of harm.

I couldn't agree more. This generalization doesn't help the boys, nor does it help the women fighting against gender ideology when they label all trans-identifying males as potential threats. It makes them look paranoid.

Excellent discussions today. I recognized and agreed with so much despite being a strange old straight American hillbilly Absurdilachian poet who grew up during the 60s. You all rock.

Appropos of exactly nothing --- have you checked out the furror over The Telepathy Tapes? So much in common with the absolutely Looney magic 157 genders phenomenon.

There's a new popular delusion Everytime you look.

OMG!

Good on ya, thanks again.
