In today's episode, I spoke with Helen Joyce, journalist and author of 'Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality'.

We dove into the transgender debate, uncovering key elements of the trans ideology and the harmful effects of gender affirmative care.

Here are some key points we discussed:

1. Gender identity vs. biological sex: What each means and why they're not the same.

2. Origin of the term 'gender': Exploring where the term came from, why it's useful, and where it allows us to distort our biological reality.

3. Paradox of gender stereotypes: How trans individuals embody stereotypes while claiming gender isn't binary.

4. Abstract vs. concrete: The Jungian idea that it is dangerous to turn what is symbolic into the concrete.

5. Gender clinics: The harmful practices of gender specialists and the slippery slope of puberty blockers, hormones, and invasive surgeries.

6. Parents are terrorized: Parents are told that their child will commit suicide if the parent does not affirm their child's preferred genders.

7. Types of transgender: Exploring androphilia and autogynephilia among men, and rapid-onset gender dysphoria and social contagion among teenage girls.

8. Social media's effect on girls: Platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Tumblr are spreading trans ideology to vulnerable teenage girls. *

9. Fan Fiction Trend: The new trend of erotic fan fiction written by teenage girls for teenage girls, with romantic love stories between male characters from popular books (think a romance story between Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter!)

10. Trans rights vs. women's rights: Men identifying as trans women are impinging on women's sports and endangering women in prisons.
