The Tale of Two Contagions In 2019, German psychiatrists observed a sudden surge of adolescent girls presenting to clinics with abrupt-onset Tourette-like tics. This immediately raised alarm bells. Tourette’s typically affects boys and begins in early childhood. This was an

There are now 5 trans-identified children at my daughter's elementary school. It all started with one boy whose parents lied to him and told him he's a girl. Then the school ramped up the propaganda, bombarded kids with gender ideology, and now there are 5 kids on the path to

Women: *give birth to literally every single human being that has ever walked this planet* A tiny % of men in the 21st century: "We possess magical woman souls; therefore, we are literal women." Everyone: I have no idea what a woman is now.🤷‍♀️
🧵Apotemnophilia In the 90s, Dr. Robert Smith, a surgeon at Falkirk Royal Infirmary, performed leg amputations on two men. Both men were perfectly healthy but suffering from apotemnophilia, a psychiatric condition involving the desire to have healthy limbs amputated./1
An incredible image that encapsulates the true insanity of our times. Women, in 2025, celebrating the UK Supreme Court recognizing that they exist.

🧵A thread about social contagions: In 1972, British psychologist Gerald Russell treated a woman with an unusual eating disorder involving binging and purging. Over the next 7 years, he saw a further 30 woman presenting with the same condition./1
Just had my hair done and as usual, the moment I sat down, my stylist and I started terfing it up. But this time was different. First one woman joined the conversation saying she'd been banned from her women-only gym last month for complaining about a man (with a woman soul)
This needs to be spelled out plainly and clearly. Autogynephilia is a paraphilia in which a man is aroused by the fantasy of becoming a woman. One subtype of autogynephilia is physiologic autogynephilia: being aroused by the fantasy of having female bodily functions such as

Which is more plausible? A vanishingly rare, randomly occurring innate trait just so happens to strike this woman's daughter, her niece, her best friend's kid, and her kid's best friend. Or It's the most obvious social contagion in all of history.

Never forget how this medical scandal began.  Back in the 1980s, a small group of trans activists hatched a plot: to take an absurd, illogical overvalued belief—that being transgender is innate, natural, healthy—and force all of society to live in a fictional world built on it.

We're in the eye of the storm right now, so most people can't see the damage being done. But soon, all the young people emerging from this contagion sterile and missing body parts will be visible for all to see, and people will be horrified that they supported such evil./end
Me: You signed a statement calling “gender affirming care” for youth medically necessary. Guyatt: WHAT!? That’s RIDICULOUS. I would never say that. Me: *produces the receipt Guyatt: Oh, I didn’t read that part. I’m a dope. Unbelievable.

Me at 13: I never want kids Me at 18: I never want kids Me at 21: I never want kids Me at 25: I never want kids Me at 28: I never want kids Me at 30: I WANT TO HAVE A BABY RIGHT NOW! Gender doctors commit a terrible crime robbing young people of this chance to grow and mature.🏳️‍⚧️
🧵If it's not a social contagion, what is it? It astounds me that there are still so many people out there who refuse to believe we're dealing with a social contagion of gender dysphoria. Surely there's never been a more obvious one in all of history./1
Or, imagine a 13-year-old girl interpreting normal pubertal angst as a sign she is transgender because the deranged world she is growing up in told her that if she hates her body, that could mean she’s a boy. Imagine she then falls into a fictional world online where humans can

That world is obviously mad, but our reality is worse. Because along with healthy body parts, teens today are sacrificing their fertility and sexual function on the altar of gender,before they even understand what that means, making this truly one of humanity's darkest moments/15
The modern trans rights movement is the single worst thing that ever happened to people who identify as transgender. It has turned women like me, who would once have politely gone along with pronouns and the pretense of transwomen are women, into hardline defenders of language
This afternoon, my 13-year-old daughter had an accident. She almost certainly has a broken wrist and a concussion. We’ve been at the ER for 6 hours already and she hasn’t even been given so much as a painkiller, despite repeated requests. Canada’s healthcare system is broken.
Karen Carpenter's tragic battle triggered a social contagion of anorexia; Princess Diana's public struggle with bulimia had the same effect. The book Sybil kicked off the multiple personality disorder epidemic in the 80s. Running parallel to that was the Satanic Panic, set off

The dark truth is a small group of powerful people turned a psychiatric disorder into a civil rights movement and made failure to validate the sufferer's delusion a hate crime. Vulnerable teens being sterilised and having healthy body parts amputated are the collateral damage.
In our recent interview, Graham Linehan described the grim reality of why he moved to the US. “At the moment we have UK police basically acting as a goon squad for a bunch of petty criminals who have have started to wear dresses and found that they they have almost magical
Spent the entire day reading the scientific literature on phalloplasty. Even a successful phalloplasty is a ghastly crime, and the astronomically high rate of complications makes me sick to my stomach. Every surgeon who's ever done this to a vulnerable woman belongs in prison.
When people of the future look back at this despicable moment in history when we allowed teenage girls to sacrifice healthy body parts on the altar of gender, this image will be one of the exhibition pieces to demonstrate the true depravity of the era. What an utterly sick and

Two years ago, and I stood alone on Parliament Hill with the message that children are never born in the wrong body. Passers-by had no idea what was happening to children in this country. Yesterday, I stood with thousands and thousands of parents demanding an end

Scenes from Ottawa right now where thousands of parents and kids are protesting explicit sexual content in schools and radical gender ideology. These protests are absolutely massive and across the entire country. #1MillionMarch4Children
This is so funny. After a solid ten years of "no debate," trans activists have realised that viciously attacking anyone who slightly deviates from their worldview isn't a winning strategy after all. So it's time for a new approach. "In short, we must learn how to talk to
