So well said. Thank you. Do you feel like this is The Emperors new Clothes? Where no one speaks up in fear of looking foolish but in doing so show their foolishness? If only we could hear what goes on in the thinking of those who are asked what a woman is.
‘ The central theme of Hans Christian Andersen's story of the Emperor's new clothes is that illusion depends at least in part on self-deception on the part of those being deceived. The Emperor and his courtiers pretend he is wearing clothes because they do not wish to appear foolish; in the end they look more so.’

It's funny you use that analogy JD. I've used it many times myself. Infact, some time ago I rewrote Hans Christian Andersen's tale around transgenderism. I might republish it in the next few days.
Nice one James. As a kinsman I am embarassed about this man turned woman playing with the girls. This crap needs to be outed and very quickly. Let girls together and against each other play men's games and enjoy themselves and in the same way some men like to play girls' games and good on them. So let the half way house lot, the different if you will, start doing that too but please stop this nonsense of overlapping. Girls-boys. Women-men. Then the strange people who are also welcome so long as they understand they are different. That is all.
Oh just something I recalled. I was once asked by someone how the woke would address a bloke called Guy Chapman.
You are my most favourite writer on all these issues, James. And I truly enjoy your sharp wit and humour too. Our Western culture and morality is imploding at an incredible rate. This is what happens when you get rid of God, the absolute Truth, and make yourself a god with no moral boundaries. Good rational people need to speak out against this utter stupidity regardless of the consequences.

Will look forward to reading it!

That's very kind of you June. Glad you're enjoying my daily newsletter. Thanks for being part of it.
You have said it all again James. For the sake of future generations this insanity must be challenged.
Spot on Mr Macpherson. As always.
Glad you're enjoying my newsletter Alex
Once again, I totally agree with you. This world has gone mad
Yes it has. And if we cease calling out the madness it will become normalised.
