Every cell in a person’s body has either XY or XX chromosomes so we are either male or female. It’s clear. It’s not complicated. And exceptions are so rare as to be statistically irrelevant.
But scientific facts, like truth, are unimportant to the regressive liberal left who want to remake humanity according to their own Orwellian ideology. Deception is everything, so these cultural marxists – as well as their useful idiots in the wider political class – promote their dystopian society by following the Joseph Goebbels dictum that if you tell a big enough lie and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
Transgenderism is part of leftists’ political strategy and it is a big lie.
It is a lie when they insist we can choose or change our biological sex. Our sex is fixed at birth and we can no more change our chromosomes than we can change our date of birth.
Just because, say, an 85-year-old suffers from acute thanatophobia (fear of death) and therefore insists he is actually 25 in order to postpone his approaching demise, this does not mean we must buy into his delusion. Nor do we let him fight for his country, drive his car without the triennial over-70 licence renewal or play football for the local under-30 team. Rather, if we are compassionate, we call for a psychiatric counsellor to help ease his distress.
And if a five-stone teenage girl suffers from pocrescophobia (fear of gaining weight), insists she is obese and refuses to eat, the sensible response is not to affirm her in her delusion and withhold food from her. She has a psychological disorder and the caring response is to arrange professional treatment.
It is a similar deception or disorder when people claim they are the opposite of their birth gender. And when they demand that we buy into their dishonesty or delusion we should not simply roll over. We cannot agree to call a man a woman or vice versa, as it is biologically and factually untrue.
No sane society would allow a convicted serial sex offender and rapist to serve his sentence in a women’s jail just because he has decided to self-identify as a woman. Neither would anyone with common sense allow an 18-year-old youth to join the Girl Guides and go camping – sharing tents, showers and toilets – just because he has insisted on coming out as a girl.
Except that, of course, leftists have marched so far through the institutions spreading their lunacy that in the UK we now do both (here and here ).
They have even marched into Downing Street. The Prime Minister has signed up and sanctioned their delusion by informing us that “trans is not a (mental) illness”.
And, like bullies, the cultural marxists and their fellow travellers are targeting our kids, especially the younger ones.
As politically correct as her boss, the Secretary of State for Education Justine Greening is pushing and promoting her Children and Social Work Act that makes sex education, including the teaching of transgender issues, compulsory in primary schools. And earlier this year the largest teachers’ union in the UK, the National Union of Teachers, demanded that transgender issues should be taught in nursery schools to toddlers as young as two. Yes, really: two.
As one educationalist told a conference recently, the teacher’s role is becoming that of “sowing confusion about gender identity” and policing “the values, thoughts and language of children to bring them in line with one particular ideological position”.
So it’s no longer about education. It’s about messing with young minds and, it seems, the younger the better.
Historically the number of young children with genuine gender dysphoria issues is minuscule; in 2009/10 just 19 of the nation’s primary school age children were referred to the relevant NHS specialist units in London and Leeds.
But the educational establishment’s strategy is to push their transgender agenda onto schoolchildren of all ages including the very young; to confuse them about their sexual identity; to get Ofsted to commend primary school staff that label four-year-olds ‘transgender’ because they want to dress up as the opposite sex; and then triumphantly to declare that – surprise, surprise – gender dysphoria is a rapidly growing issue.
The consequence of this indoctrination is that numbers of primary school children referred – though still miniscule – had quadrupled by 2014/5 and is rising.
The attack on children’s impressionable minds is relentless. Recently we have seen that drag queens are now being invited into nurseries to give transgender lessons to toddlers. And a government-funded LGBT organisation is avidly promoting colourful cartoon books for nurseries that provoke three-year-olds to question their gender.
This is tantamount to child abuse. Certainly it is massive state-authorised manipulation of young minds. Yet alarmed parents and horrified grandparents up and down the country feel they have no say and cannot protest or protect their children. To question the trans agenda is to risk being labelled ‘transphobic’, ‘bigoted’ or ‘hateful’ and cast into the politically incorrect darkness – as UKIP’s Welsh Assembly Member Gareth Bennett discovered this week .
So step up UKIP. This is exactly our territory. We have never been cowed by the politically correct. Rather, it is our calling and duty to represent the voiceless and powerless against the arrogant establishment.
We did it over mass immigration. We did it over Brexit.
We can do it too over the transgenderisation of our children – and we may even find ourselves moving up the opinion polls once again.
Kippers arise! The hour to defend our kids has come.

This is just a horrendous denial of free speech by the liberal left in the Welsh Assembly. We need to speak out on this and I call upon our leader, Henry Bolton OBE to do so without further delay.
I and others will be doing so and I have already had favourable response
from theb leader of the Welsh Conservatives – Mr RT Davies AM
I fear his problem isn’t lack of plans, he probably has multitudes of them,filling up shelves and making him feel very pleased with his achievement.
His problem is lack of purpose and personality.
The Greening doctrine of educational lying and indoctrination is what you will get with a nationalised education system with a nationalised curriculum.
UKIP should be deluging inner cities demanding the introduction of education vouchers for any school of parents’ choice. All parents should have the same choices of school as those with pots of money. It is simply too important to allow any political party to control education. It will become indoctrination as we see now. They are even closing in on home schooling now as well.
XYY is Jacob’s syndrome. I’ve either forgotten or never knew the names for the others – or there aren’t names for them.
As the options you listed are mutually exclusive, it is fair to say that over 99.8% of the population is either XX or XY. Perhaps the residual 0.1% to 0.2% is not statistically “irrelevant”, but certainly is not significant enough to justify the overturning long-standing societal structures.

Hi PPM, I don’t think I made a ‘basic error’ by ignoring the fact that ‘nature screws up’. I acknowledged in my first para that there are exceptions – but they are so rare to be statistically irrelevant and certainly not significant enough to build a full-blown transgender ideology on!
(The exceptions are of course very relevant and significant to the person involved, who should receive respect, care and help where needed – but not denial of reality.)
Apart from your opening statement however, it seems we are in full and welcome agreement.

… “wot Alan said”
I’ve got an idea, I could save some money during the winter. Turn off the heating and declare my temperature identity to be “warm”.
You mention Justine Greening, Secretary of State for Education being as ‘politically correct as her boss’.
Were you aware that Justine Greening is, herself, a lesbian. That, in itself is not a problem but she is pushing LGBT for all she’s worth.

Thirty five years ago, a gay bar-tender told me that one day, Europe would permit gay marriages. He was laughed at, but obviously knew something was brewing way back then because he stuck to his guns. What is shocking is the sheer speed in which society has been engulfed by all things gay/trans/xyz, and the sheer stupidity of many people in their acceptance of it. It’s all such a huge lie, but it seems only the pure of heart can discern it.
Pets? I seem to recall the Blue Peter tortoise, Fred, turned out to be Freda ?
In the good old days they used to hang around the school-yard in raincoats. Now they’re allowed in and presumably paid to mess with our children’s minds. Is this done with parental consent?
I see it as yet another step taking us towards the old USSR where children were encouraged to speak against their parents who were then identified as ‘dissidents’ so they could be carted off and ‘re-educated’. It’s a long slippery slope we find ourselves on.
And May’s all for it. No surprise there. A funny lot those Conservatives. To think I once voted for them!
Is this done with parental consent you ask? It’s worse than that.
” Primary and secondary schools should ‘celebrate’ transsexualism in their curriculum and prohibit anyone from complaining, head teachers have been told.
Guidance from the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) for schools with trans staff recommends that transsexual people, their issues and experiences are celebrated in school.
Written in conjunction with LGBT lobby group Stonewall, it adds that school leaders should forbid parents, governors and staff from complaining about the policies that promote transsexualism.”
FORBID PARENTS… from complaining.
C’mon, provide a citation, please. You simply must be pulling our legs!
If this is real, then it is a forerunner to mandatory test periods of enforced alternative sexuality on young and maybe not-so-young people.
Perfect for a leaflet.
We already have ‘vegan pet food’, presumably so vegans can also force their lifestyle choice on their pets.
So I wonder how long it will be before this madness gets extended to pets?
-“Oh, what a cute little puppy! I see he’s a little boy dog.”
-“How dare you assume the gender of my puppy!”
By filling our childrens’ heads with this rubbish from an early age, it will just lead to more mental health issues in future. But then again, that’s probably what ‘they’ want.
As a teenager I spent some time successfully convincing a kindly vegetarian family that imposing their dietary regime on their beloved pet cat was animal cruelty.
There’s no cure for stupid.
‘There’s no cure for the stupid’ – superb.
And there’s proof, we sent vast numbers of low achievers to ‘university’, most came out with certificates but…they were still stupid, some even more so. But it made middle class parents happy.
And what did the Wizard of Oz give the Scarecrow?
Oops, not a good analogy. Scarecrow was actually bright to begin with, just inexperienced.
But the smartest in Baum’s classic was Toto.
Was there a Cowardly Lion too? I can’t remember – maybe he got changed (back into a “£” sign?)
