WLRN member aurora linnea reviews Sheila Jeffreys’ book Penile Imperialism: the Male Sex Right & Women’s Subordination published by Spinifex Press.

Man saw all that he had made – a phallocentric universe dedicated to his pleasure, the whole of human society renovated into one great big sex-dungeon-cum-masturbatorium – and it was good. Sheila Jeffreys saw it, and called it “penile imperialism.” And it was vile.

Long our most unflinching historian of men’s sexual grotesquery, Jeffreys draws from her forty years of probing and mapping the dark groin of male dominion to present a big-picture view of the current catastrophe in her latest book, Penile Imperialism: The Male Sex Right and Female Subordination, released in September through Spinifex Press.

Penile Imperialism gives us what we need to become as holistic in our revolt, and as sweeping in our vision of freedom, as men in their sex-fueled reign of terror have been.

A Norwegian programmer has revealed a conceptual design for a video game centered around slaughtering women that he refers to as “gender fascists” for being critical of gender ideology.

Moen adopted the styling of Wolfenstein 3D, but traded out the Nazi enemies for depictions of women. In place of a swastika, the women wear arm bands that display an “XX” logo which bears a striking resemblance to the symbol used by the women’s rights organization Women’s Declaration International (WDI).

Moen has been vocal about his interest in pornography and BDSM practices, with a stated interest in bondage in particular.

During a podcast interview with Trans Norge in March, Moen credited pornography with his decision to begin identifying as a woman full-time.

While a university student, Moen became embroiled in controversy after a woman complained about his presence in the women’s locker room. Moen, who has not had “sex-reassignment surgery,” received media attention in 2017 after it came to light that he had exposed his penis to women in the SiS Sports Center on campus.

Trans-identifying male Karoline Skarstein wrote an article for the Stavanger Aftenblad at the time praising Moen and calling him a “role model” for entering the locker room and showering in the presence of women.

Skarstein serves as a representative for the Norwegian Organization for Sexual and Gender Diversity (FRI – foreningen for kjønns- og seksualitetsmangfold), the same activist group involved in the litigation against WDI leader Ellingsen.

FRI’s campaigns successfully resulted in sadomasochism, transvestic fetishism, and general fetishism being re-classified as variants in sexual arousal in the WHO’s 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases.

A previous report by Reduxx revealed how a former member of FRI had been performing and live-streaming fetishistic castrations via a pay-per-view pornography website.

In Australia, there is currently no legal course of action available to employees if an employer refuses their request for flexible work.

The lack of legal protection has become particularly apparent since the pandemic transformed our attitudes towards working from home and working flexibly. Since 2020, many employees have continued to work from home or opt for a hybrid approach, with some days spent in the office and some days working from home.

In 2009, the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) established a right under section 65 to request flexible work arrangements. However, this is merely a right to make a request, not a right to challenge the result. To be eligible to make a request under the act the employee must have completed 12 months of continuous service with the employer.

Employers can reject a request if they have reasonable business grounds to do so. In deciding if there are reasonable business grounds, the employer will consider cost, capacity, practicality, efficiency, and productivity.

If an employer fails to provide a written response to the request within 21 days, an employee can take them to court to obtain one. However, doing so is costly. If the employer provides a written response rejecting the request, there is no legal right to challenge the result.

This is a shameful document, by any standard. Any illusion that the issuing body, the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), is in any way a credible professional body, with patient wellbeing at its heart, should be dispelled by the task of reading through the 180 pages of this guidance.

A surprising addition to the lengthening list of gender identities is that of eunuch, listed here with reference to a peer-support website, the Eunuch Archive. This has been exposed by Gluck (2022) as a repository of child pornography, specialising in fantasies of self- or child-mutilation. The inclusion of eunuch as a legitimate gender identity captures the process at work, where declassifying paraphilia (formerly Scoptic syndrome in DSM-4) seems intended to normalise fetishistic behaviour for a wider professional audience. The close nexus between social media, pornography and bodily mutilation (in the strict medico-legal sense) which is inherent within the concept of gender identity could not be made any clearer.

The crucial barrier to care of age limits is also dispensable within these guidelines (S66). The unspoken dynamic driving the process is clearly a bias towards the presumption of treatment, rather than of non-treatment (Soh, in Lane, 2022).

This persistent motif, namely of trading high risk of physiological damage in exchange for claimed psychological benefit, is a central and recurring feature of these guidelines, and, perhaps, of gender identity affirming care more generally.

However, the harm reduction model applied here is simply aspirational, namely based largely on value judgements, but without hard evidence of its efficacy in the form of randomised controlled trials (RCT). This is clearly the case with puberty blockers, where the desired effect of delaying an unwanted puberty is supposed to minimise the claimed harm of psychological distress. However, there are no RCTs at present in relation to puberty blockers.

This all points to a major structural problem with the guidelines, namely the profound weakness of their research and evidence base.

Requiring psychological therapists to follow these guidelines means imposing major constraints their professional autonomy to practise according to their own preferred modality and established ethical precepts.

Finally, the rush to expedite medical transition ultimately makes therapy completely optional, if not totally dispensable, within this end-driven process. The value of therapy is briefly acknowledged, but then modified and brushed aside by WPATH.

In greasing the slipway towards medical transition, the WPATH 8 Standards of Care thus present a direct threat to the continued independence and autonomy of the psychotherapeutic professions.

“Transgenderism” is a word acting as a social bridge between transsexualism and transhumanism.

Eugenics has a long and complex history that cannot be tackled here, but the current experiments on children’s healthy bodies and sex organs, many of whom are likely to grow up to be gay, and many who also have autism and other mental disorders, echo its tenets. These “transgender” experiments sterilizing young people are currently being forwarded under the rainbow banner of “human rights.”

The next most crucial step toward the transhumanist goal is to usurp human reproduction and move it into the tech sector. The assisted reproductive market is currently $25.6B and is projected to reach $41.4B by 2030. This market is being invested in by many of the same elites investing in the gender industry, who are invested in the medical and tech sectors in general, and who are simultaneously using the LGB human rights political infrastructure to abolish sexual dimorphism—reproductive sex. It’s a perfect fit because individuals in same-sex relationships will need the assisted fertility market if they wish to reproduce—and only those with considerable resources can finance these risky medical procedures. The rest will stand as the medical refuse of eugenicists, sterilized for life.

The first “gender bill” was cultivated by a group of men with transvestic fetishism in the early ‘90s. At least one of these men, Martine Rothblatt, has undergone transsexual surgery, a misnomer since no one can actually change their sex. He is a transhumanist (no one has yet transitioned from human either), owns a major biopharmaceutical company, a xenotransplantation farm for harvesting animal organs to transplant into humans, a 3D organ printing corporation, and has created a robot of his wife. Rothblatt worked on the Human Genome Project at the UN level and created a technological religion called Terasem. He is the co-creator of Sirius XM satellite radio. Rothblatt is highly renowned in technology, political, and business circles. He has written about the necessity of overriding the process of categorizing men and women by their biology and believes that sexual dimorphism is tantamount to South African apartheid. He has also written extensively on the future of reproduction via technology and transgressing our species’ boundaries. Rothblatt was tutored into transhumanism by Ray Kurzweil of Google, a company investing in the gender industry on various fronts while it collects our data.

There are conferences all over the world on transhumanism. There are college courses, centers of study, books, and if you Google “transhumanism,” you will get in the neighborhood of 6 million hits.

Without a banner of human rights, the transhumanist boat would sink like a stone. It uses vulnerable children as fodder for the coming revolution in assisted fertility to force our trajectory as a species away from the biosphere and further into technology—unless we stop them.

During a girls’ tournament last month, a Highlands High volleyball player pelted a Hiwassee Dam High player in the forehead with the ball during a return.

The Hiwassee Dam player, a biological girl, suffered severe head and neck injuries, resulting in long-term concussion symptoms, including vision problems. The girl has still not yet been cleared to play again by her primary care physician or a neurologist.

With a 5-1 vote, the Cherokee County Board of Education declared the event a “safety issue” and canceled all remaining games against Highlands High.

The perspective of a longtime coach swayed Cherokee Board Member Joe Wood:

“I’ll never put a child in a position to be seriously injured,” Wood said.

“I think the odds (of injury) in these non-contact sports aren’t high. But in particular, in this meeting, a coach of 40 years said they’d never seen a hit like this. That was really what sealed the decision, at least on my part.”

Biological boys playing against girls on the volleyball team is dangerous and unfair, as these Cherokee Board Members correctly pointed out. This fact is supported by studies (and common sense).

The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research also confirmed male dominance in the sport. The jump height and explosive power of males are significantly higher than those of females, according to scientists.

Why Was The Declaration Written?

As mental health professionals, public health scientists, and allied organizations and individuals, we have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the current Standards of Care released by WPATH (the World Professional Association for Transgender Health). We hold that WPATH has discredited itself.

Exclusive: The words ‘mother’ and ‘father’ should be replaced with ‘primary caregiver’ and ‘secondary caregiver’ in the workplace, according to a trans lobby group influencing a slew of Government departments and the ABC.ACON – which stands for AIDS Council of NSW, but has diversified into national workplace policy – describes in a training video that the term ‘women becoming pregnant’ is a “traditional” view.And, it warns HR staff to “be really careful” not to have any gendered language in their work policies.IT specialist Kit Kowalski, who is behind the website ACON Exposed, says a significant part of the population are mothers and fathers.“If we should be inclusive we should be allowing people to still use these terms,” Ms Kowalski said.“There is this idea that if you are in the majority you are allowed to be undermined.“A lot of the video is taken up with the claim that LGBTQ must be mentioned in policies over and over again, even when it is not really relevant.“But that the terms that relate to the most marginalised 52 per cent of the population, which is women, be removed.”ACON has based its training on the template used by a controversial UK equivalent lobby group called Stonewall.Up to 60 government departments and agencies, including the Prime Minister’s Office and Cabinet, schools, universities and Police, the ABC, as well as private business has signed up as members to its schemes.t receives $13 million of government funding a year and makes $4 million from organisations signing up as members and from its diversity courses.It also runs a free and voluntary league table called the Australian Workplace Equality Index (AWEI), which lists the most “inclusive” organisations based on whether they follow its recommendations on workplace wording and policy.
