I have had various conversations with people over the past few years about "trans issues" with varying degrees of success. Some are shocked, horrified at what I tell them. "I had no idea. How can this happen?"
Some miss the point entirely and simply say "Live and let live". Their ears are open but they are not listening. These are the people that think that it is all really a big to-do about nothing. It will all go away, sort itself out, somehow, they think.
Then there are others who simply don't care. Unless something directly impacts on their life, they do not care. It is happening to someone else, somewhere else. Not them. They listen to the party line of "transwomen are women" and think that if the media are saying it, it must be true.
What will it take for them to care?
There has been much in the media recently about "Laurel Hubbard", the trans athlete who identifies as a woman and is competing as a woman in the Olympics. I see outrage from many, but many of those take it as a single incident. An "how terrible" and never think about it again.
Last week a Judge ruled that transwomen could enter women's prisons. It rocketed around like a meteor of shock and pain in the gender critical circles I circulate in; but has been ignored by the main media.
Again I have had conversations. I talk about the fact that Californian female prisoners who are sleeping in shifts to keep themselves safe. I talk about Karen White (as the most high profile trans prisoner they may have heard of). I talk about sex attacks happening as a result of transwomen in prisons. I talk about nearly half of trans prisoners are in prison for sex crimes. That 1 in 50 male prisoners now identify as female.
I see shock from some, but no anger. No pledge to tell people, do something. Anything. Speak out. Join the cause. From others, I see their eyes glaze over. They think "well I'll never be in prison, so".
Lets look why women are in the prison in the most part.
53% have survived emotional, physical or sexual abuse in childhood. 7 in 10 are survivors of domestic abuse. 80% have been sentenced to prison for non violent offences, such as shoplifting and not paying your TV licence.
I tell people about four year olds in gender clinics. About teenagers prescribed life altering puberty blockers. About the teenager detransitioners, let down the medical professional who are now missing breasts, have had hysterectomies. Who have suffered loss of bone density and vaginal atrophy.
About little girls and boys who like toys or clothes deemed for the opposite sex who are put on the transgender path by the parents; who are told by the schools (thanks Stonewall) that this the right thing to do.
I tell them about women who are assaulted by transwomen who are forced by Judges to lie in Court and call their perpetrators "she". About fathers who fight for their children going through the transgender path who are put in the dock and found in contempt of Court for calling their biological daughter female.
I get asked by these fence sitters and the people who care none; "Why do you care"? My question is
WHY DO YOU NOT CARE? WHAT WILL MAKE YOU WAKE UP?
To quote the X-Files, the truth is out there; if only you would see.
