How can Esssesssess "reclaim" the Hippocratic oath? He's not a doctor, he got kicked off his course, got kicked out of Childline for trying to impose his beliefs on kids and even fucking Grok admits he has no qualifications related to any of this
James Esses has no formal qualifications in counselling, therapy, or psychotherapy. He volunteered at Childline for six years and was studying for a Masters in psychotherapy at Metanoia Institute but was expelled before completion. His background is in law, having worked as a barrister. He was dismissed from Childline in 2021 for publicly advocating against rushed gender transitions for children, which conflicted with NSPCC policies on volunteers endorsing personal campaigns. The debate around his dismissal involves complex issues of gender therapy and child safeguarding, with no definitive evidence of misconduct.

Sex Matters argues that this means

1 Schools cannot impose a "taboo" on references to any child's actual sex

2 Children's actual sex must be known by everyone in the school environment

3 Writing, communicating and enforcing sex-based rules necessarily rules out "preferred pronouns" or allowing trans-identified children to wear the uniform of the opposite sex.

@free-orthodontics.bsky.social

That wasn't the status quo, "transwomen have always used women's spaces" is just another leftist shibboleth & gaslighting to boot. Even now, even in leftist hotspots like unis, it still doesn't really fly. To suppose men were identifying into women's changing rooms in e.g. the 80s is madness.

There are often unisex options. Not being allowed into the mens by rule does not mean you have the right to go into the ladies (and vice versa).

That may seem unfair, but these are life choices people make. If you make extreme efforts to look like a man don't be surprised if you are denied entrance to ladies.

What law is being broken by a trans woman using a women's toilet? Point out the exact law and what it says. The /guidance/ (and it's just that, guidance) is for service providers and who they may allow use a service. Try phoning the police and reporting someone is using the toilet, see what happens

Which is what I said.

The problem seems to be that the intent of the law is clear but there's little way to enforce it

Huh, would you look at that, a trans healthcare story based on made up numbers, we've definitely never seen that before
Claire Prosho, a Trans+ healthcare researcher who worked on the Gender Clinic Files investigative series with QueerAF and What The Trans?!, raised question marks about the claim of higher rates of surgical referral in Wales in a letter she sent on August 29 to Mabon ap Gwynfor, the Welsh minister for health and social care. 

"I highlighted how, using accurate data gathered for the UK Gender Services Monitor, coupled with other data gathered by Freedom of Information Act requests, the surgical referral rate for the Welsh Gender Service was actually lower than that in England," Prosho tells QueerAF. "And far below the '3x - 4x national referral rate' claimed by Nick Wallis and the right-wing media."

Lol, reading Patrick Freyne's interview in the Irish Times with Jon Ronson and I like the juxtaposition! archive.ph/dE5FS
In that chapter Ronson challenges Linehan but also tries to understand what drove him to blow up his life. “I sat on the interview for six years,” he says. “In the end Graham got annoyed with me because I didn’t write about it. Well, you can imagine what stopped me. It’s a very fraught thing to write about. It’s a very emotional thing. I was super fond of Graham.”
How does he manage his emotions when reporting on difficult subjects? “I remember years ago I went to see my doctor when I lived in Islington, and the night before, my documentary about [conspiracy theorist] David Icke was on Channel Four ... And the doctor said to me: ‘God, the toll that hanging out with people like that must take on you.’ And I said: ‘What? I live for those moments.’”
