    Hi, 28:40 : We all want to give happyness to everyone. But for children and teenagers, happyness may not be potential irreversible lifelong health damages. Maybe they'll change their mind before they're adults. Children and teenagers (and even young adults) have time. Puberty is about questions, and also sexual questions. Questions are by definition not a No Way Back road.

    The pity number this MAN pulled no longer works. If he feels threatened by other men in places intended for men, it's not a problem that you can simply pass on to women. You cannot expect women to allow all men who imagine they are women into their places just because they imagine they are threatened by other men and in the same breath demand that women should ignore their instincts !

    Exactly. The 'battle cry' of the 70's 'Biology is not Destiny' did not refer to anything but the biological difference between the sexes and to male dominance over and oppression of female members of society. It was not a denial of the biological difference between males (xy) and females (xx). The Trans issue is highlighted, not because trans people are a danger to women in female spaces, but because it is creating a fundamental change in modern society. However, as Peter says, trans-women have been going into female spaces for many years and have been accepted by the vast majority of people in the West (in particular) for many years. The issue of men who want to present as women is not the issue. Modern Western Society has accepted many liberating movements since the sixties; women's rights, gay rights, and so on and is generally much more accepting of our differences. However, the Trans movement seems to have hi-jacked this post-war sense of liberation and freedom to be oneself. I am delighted Bobbi has found peace and is enjoying life. Nobody should be denied such inner peace. However, the talk has evaded serious concerns such as; * Children at the earliest of ages being told that their problems; whether they be mental issues, identity issues, feelings of being a boy/girl and so on...can be resolved by re-identifying, receiving identity therapy, by taking hormone medication, by taking hormone blockers, by opting for surgical remedies... * Consent being ignored * Pressure in schools and the workplace to use different language terms * Trans-women taking part in female activities such as female sports... * Women and men feeling uncertain / unhappy about allowing young children to go into public toilets alone, into unisex toilets alone... These and many other issues are of great concern to mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters ... and were not discussed. The discussion of these issues are not in any way an attempt to demonize trans-people. They are legitimate concerns and must be debated at the highest levels.

    She does however patronise and minimise the experiences of trans people. She talks about health services with limited experience and understanding of the services and the culture, generally they operate in. Some of the issues in the Tavistock clinic for example are issues in healthcare delivery and are not unique to the Tavistock clinic. I think she asks important questions but sadly does it in a condescending, patronising way that does herself, service providers and most importantly trans people a massive disservice.

Allowing women to have their own spaces is not a punishment for males, as Peter asserts, it is to keep women safe.

    Couple of straw-man points: gender neutral toilets at festivals are single private cubicles; trans women are not the problem and never have been, the problem is men who exploit the category of trans for their own nefarious ends. The point is, when you abolish sex categories it is wide open to exploitation by nefarious men. Let's be real, violence against women is overwhelmingly made by men which is why women in general need to be protected against men whilst on vulnerable and intimate spaces like prisons or changing rooms. Women's rights are sex based rights, if you do away with sex based categories it will also affect on those sex based rights. Women have never excluded or demonised trans women until there was a reason to. This is not a knee jerk reaction this is a reaction to the progressive narrative and political stance that any man can identify as a woman at any time based on a feeling.

    A woman, is an adult human female, it is not an "identity" or a feeling, dress, attitude etc., that whole line of thinking is regressive in the extreme. Claiming there is some "essence" to "womanhood" that also males can access, but the reality is that women do not have to look or act any certain way, or act out some ludicrously sexist idea of the “social role of a woman”, all females who reach adulthood are women regardless of how they feel or look, and the one thing they ALL have in common, the one experience they ALL share, is that they are FEMALE, they do not have to "identify" as anything, they physically ARE women because they are female. Why should MALES be allowed access to SINGLE-SEX spaces reserved for FEMALES based on their "gender identity"? If sex and gender are separate, then a male announcing his "gender identity" is "trans woman" does nothing to change their sex, they are still MALE - so why should they be afforded rights reserved for the opposite SEX? The movement is regressively sexist, and misogynistic. Why do you believe females do not deserve any spaces free of males? What is hateful about upholding female sex-based rights that were fought long and hard for? Believing sexist stereotypes define men and women, instead of their biological sex, is unquestionably sexist to the core, because you are saying men and women are not actually free to behave however they want but need to conform to these sexist stereotypes in order to be men or women - if you say no they don't have to act any sort of way as a man or woman, and being a man or woman has nothing to do with biology - then what are you describing by calling someone a man or woman? If you think it doesn't describe biology, and doesn't describe anything about their looks or behaviour, then what on earth are you basing defining anyone as a man or woman on??? Why would a man need to become a "trans woman" in order to be their "authentic selves", why can't they just be a very feminine man and dress/act however they want? If trans ideology isn't sexist, then why would a man ever need to "transition" if either sex is completely free to act however they want? How can you claim to be opposing sexism when the whole basis for anyone feeling the need to transition, literally is sexism? How is gender identity" any different from what sexist stereotypes a person feels drawn to? Or simply their PERSONALITY? And, if sex and gender are separate, then why should "transitioning gender" allow MALES into FEMALE-ONLY spaces, they never changed, nor can they change, their sex. How is removing the rights of females to single-sex spaces progressive? How is centering male feelings over female rights "feminist"?

    I don't believe for a second that the major personalities in opposition to the delusion that sex is not binary were contacted and refused to debate the issue. Trans liberation is misogynist when males try to claim the spaces reserved for females. No one wants to abuse or reject people living their lives as they desire, as long as they don't harm others (an expectation of every person regardless of how they chose to live their lives). We will not change the language to appease anyone. The gender spectrum is masculine to feminine, and many of the affects are socially constructed, but sex is not. There is and has to be a strict male-female divide in sports because of the biological differences between the sexes. These differences are not socially constructed. There will never be equal outcomes by population in any endeavor because of biological differences. This does not mean that any achievement is beyond any individual, but even on an individual level sex will be determinative of possibilities. Individuals are not being excluded "because they are trans." They are being excluded because they are male, regardless of their subjective appreciation that they are women. No "trans man" individuals are being excluded from male spaces, and for very good reasons. Focus on that issue.

    This is such a complex and confusing issue. I’m a gay male, so I like to think that I’m empathetic towards minorities who struggle for social justice etc etc. However, I’m also a scientist, and I like to see empirical evidence. Finally, I’m now approaching 60 years old, and I’ve reached a point where I try to be open to how others feel, and to realise that if I’m not an expert on something then my opinion isn’t worth much. I watched this video with interest, and I found what was said compelling. If also listened to the “other side” and heard much that sounds very sensible. I’m left in a quandary. I feel both sides have a right to express their stance, but I would like to see both face real scrutiny. Surely much of the disagreement could be resolved by research and statistics, and yet so much of both arguments seem to rely on a few examples and a lot of appealing to the emotions. This is no way to conduct a public debate. When the law on male homosexuality in the UK was reviewed in the 1960s, public opinion was very much against reform. For most people (particularly straight men, who made up most of the MPs in the House of Commons and in the Lords) the idea of homosexuality was repugnant. And yet those MPs reviewed the scientific evidence and heard testimony from experts and the law was changed. However, the popular press continued to stir up homophobia. Even we’ll into the 1980s I remember people like Kenny Everett and George Micheal being vilified and smeared by the press. In time public opinion changed. I feel that on the issue of transgender rights that we are in the early stages of a similar process. Social and legal change takes time. While we wait to see what the outcome will be, we should remember that there are human lives being affected, and we should come to the process with dignity and compassion. I was always taught that if you lose your temper then you’ve lost the argument.

    The 'battle cry' of the 70's 'Biology is not Destiny' did not refer to anything but the biological difference between the sexes and to male dominance over and oppression of female members of society. It was not a denial of the biological difference between males (xy) and females (xx). The Trans issue is highlighted, not because trans people are a danger to women in female spaces, but because it is creating a fundamental change in modern society. However, as Peter says, trans-women have been going into female spaces for many years and have been accepted by the vast majority of people in the West (in particular) for many years. The issue of men who want to present as women is not the issue. Modern Western Society has accepted many liberating movements since the sixties; women's rights, gay rights, and so on and is generally much more accepting of our differences. However, the Trans movement seems to have hi-jacked this post-war sense of liberation and freedom to be oneself. I am delighted Bobbi has found peace and is enjoying life. Nobody should be denied such inner peace. However, the talk has evaded serious concerns such as; * Children at the earliest of ages being told that their problems; whether they be mental issues, identity issues, feelings of being a boy/girl and so on...can be resolved by re-identifying, receiving identity therapy, by taking hormone medication, by taking hormone blockers, by opting for surgical remedies... * Consent being ignored * Pressure in schools and the workplace to use different language terms * Trans-women taking part in female activities such as female sports... * Women and men feeling uncertain / unhappy about allowing young children to go into public toilets alone, into unisex toilets alone... These and many other issues are of great concern to mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters ... and were not discussed. The discussion of these issues are not in any way an attempt to demonize trans-people. They are legitimate concerns and must be debated at the highest levels.

    I'm just so embarrassed by Peter Tatchell. 1:31 Kathleen Stock has asked for debate for years- if you knew she was speaking Peter, why didn't you have the guts to be there? Why is it her fault you didn't show up? Then comes a large appeal to authority- Peter also wrote those choice words about kids having sex with adults- I can't. 2:59 please provide evidence. On one side of the debate women have been raped in prison by men who identify as women. This has happened in the UK, and the US. What's happened on the other side of the debate? What's the intimidation that's happened? No receipts. 3:10 he just said we have to challenge people but bigotry is not the way to go- he JUST put down Kathleen stock not two minutes ago. Genuinely Peter, which threats of rape and violence are these? There aren't any in Kathleen Stock's book, nor in Hannah Barnes' Book, nor in Abigail Schreier's book, nor countless others. Conversely, Andrea Long Chu won a Pulitzer for saying that the barest essentials of femaleness were " an open mouth, an expectant a**hole, blank, blank eyes." 4:32 if you respect biological fact Peter then why can't women have same sex spaces? If sex is legitimate as you claim, then surely women wishing to have their protected characteristic of sex protected under British law should be upheld, i.e by not being imprisoned with males, and having access to same sex intimate care. 5:29 Peter just said that people are oppressed for their gender non-conformity, not just for their biological sex and then defined gender non conformity as not conforming to the expectations that go with one's biological sex. Yes Peter, Sex is the thing being oppressed in both of those. "Trans Critics seem to me to uphold a strict male female divide, rather than overcome those barriers and divisions." Yes Peter, there IS a strict divide between people on the basis of their SEX, and that is what is being up held, they are saying men aren't women, NOT that men aren't allowed to be effeminate, or that girls can't be butch, but that men and woman are different sexes, and due to the physical advantages held by men, women need same sex spaces, same sex sports etc. TRANS on the other hand makes people think if they are gender nonconforming then they're in the wrong sex class.

This cohort is actually at higher risk of harming women and children than the general non trans identifying male prisoner population. (Uk prison data, 2019)

I, like many people am perfectly fine about peoples right to dress how they want, call themselves what ever name they want, have sex with who they want, but the idea that a man can just become a woman and be classed the same as a biological woman because of how he views himself is absurd. - But happy to try and understand the trans side of it.

    I think for me, in the past if people have felt ambivalent about their gender/sexed bodies they have usually had to express that covertly (other than through performing arts perhaps) ; I think as a society we implicitly "know" that not all men are manly or woman are womanly. We use words like "butch" or "effeminate" indicating that how people express themselves is not restricted to a binary. I think in the coming decades science will discover more about this complexity.

    Yes, Tatchells attempt to equate rates of female violence with male violence and specifically violence committed by males who identify as trans, was straight up deceptive. 16%of male non trans identifying prison population are incarcerated for violent sexual crime against women and children compared to 56% of the trans identified male prisoners. This cohort is actually at higher risk of harming women and children than the general non trans identifying male prisoner population. (Uk prison data, 2019)

    This two make some serviceable points, but I suspect are arguing in a vacuum and I rather doubt their statistics. I could only endure 2/3 through, as it seemed rather tautological and not making contact with the true hot-stove items (transitioning children, destroying women's sports, indoctrinating kids in the schools, or the real ratio of trans : non-trans violence). Some of these points are certainly grantable, but there is a motte-and-bailey here that acts IMHO like the plaintive points they are making are what has aroused the ire of 90% of thinking people everywhere. Whereas the trans ideology is in fact extremely aggressive, promulgated all over the place -- and the explosion in 12-year-olds thus identifying is quite alarming. It should be obvious but needs continual restating that "gender norms" per se are necessary in raising a civilization, which does not mean anyone should permit harassment or bullying of a non-conforming person. Indeed, gender norms of the staunchest conservative type are actually what much of the trans ideology secretly subscribes...

    Kathleen Stock is not a transphobe. Peter Tatchell says biological sex and gender identity are both ‘real’. But they are ‘real’ in quite different ways. To conflate the way in which they are ‘real’ is to make a fundamental methodological error. I don’t have an opinion about whether trans women should have the right to enter spaces previously the preserve of biological women. As a biological male i think i should leave that to women to figure out. I advise Peter Tatchell to adopt the same policy.

    Straight off the bat, Tatchell misses out the essential definition....what is the meaning of 'woman' such that it applies to both males and females? This idealogy (just like CRT), weak to begin with, is hopelessly anachronistic. He speaks of the 'expectation' of 'women'....knowing that by saying some males are 'women' he is by default locking what it means to be a 'woman' into wretched steritypes. And what are these stereotypes? Tatchell and others will not say because they know it exposes how ludicrous their position is. On the risk posed by males who identify as women to women, versus the risk posed by women to other women.....he is absolutely off the page wrong. Statisticd from HMPP show that the % of the trans prison population who are incarcerated for sex offences is 50-60%. For women? 3%. Tatchell goes on to tell women what they should consider priority issues. Hmmm. I wonder what makes him feel so differently than a woman does about what women should priotitise? I suppose he isnt a woman who is being told, by men, to rescind the scant protection they enjoy, to serve men's desire to access their spaces. Finally, Tatchell makes a very, very disturbing statement near the start. He says that no one should be excluded from a space on the basis of what they COULD do. Well, think about that in relation to other public pronouncements he has made.....

    Interesting conversation, and I can say as someone with doubts over the trans issue, I have no issue with any of this. I completely agree 100% in treating trans people with respect, dignity and opportunity. Great. No problem. BUT, this is not the issue, that many people, including those of us that are very much on the left, have issue with. Now, Bobbi made the comparison to trans people being like redheads, but this is surely a knowingly shallow comparison. Redheads don't need drugs, puberty blockers, and possibly deeply intrusive and life altering surgery. This is why for me, whilst I am totally for treating trans people with respect, (and, I agree with Tatchell that most of the issues raised around bathrooms and women spaces, are probably greatly overblown), it still is not a clear and easy issue. Bobbi says most people have probably never considered feeling like they were in the wrong body - well, no, not really. But for a long time now I have tried to extend my imagination to that. And frankly, it is fucking terrifying. I can't help but feel immense sadness for people who suffer such profound alienation from their body. That we can change our bodies is also only the product of very recent advances of science and medicine, the intrinsically medical nature of trans is what for me really separates it from the LGB. It is not really about love, this is quite clearly a medical problem that requires, for most it seems, a medical solution and I think the decision to not really frame it in such a way is mostly the issue. That over 90% consider suicide is absolutely tragic, but can not only be because of our society, but because these people are in a binary conflict with their own body. I don't write any of this to be hateful, but sincerely out of uncertainty of what is being discussed. As a teacher, I see more and more young people who identify as trans, and yes, it could very well be that through changing culture, access to information and greater acceptance that what is entirely expected within the human population is now just emerging. But I really don't know for sure. I also worry that, as some gay commentators have argued, young gay people are just very confused and being caught up in a kind of fad - and again, I don't say that to undermine those who are genuinely experiencing deep and real gender dysphoria. But that we present trans as being, just nothing, like being gay, no issue - is in fact part of the issue. We have hardly a notion about the nature of consciousness in itself, so this debate is challenging to most people at a deep level. Anyway, peace, love and understanding to all.
