ROGD has been roundly discredited. Lisa Littman conducted a study of transphobic parents on facebook. Not a legitimate academic.

The material fact is that trans women are more unequal to men materially than cis women.

Gender is not a set of norms and expectations, incredibly reductive

No trans person I have ever met claims that sex isn't real. The idea that this makes you "gender critical" is ridiculous.

1:03 As a GNC trans woman, I also believe that sex matters and I am treated very different on account of my transsexual body

29:30 Wow accounts on detransition reddit. Great job being a critical and discerning researcher, Laura lmao

24:27 Transition is mostly the answer according to research and extremely low detransition rates, Laura.

Crazy that she focuses so long on John Money as though he is relevant at all to modern research

She's interested in materiality but never once considers the material reality of trans women. She doesn't consider that the overlapping material conditions of cis and trans women may lead to similar psychological profiles.

Ty so much for this video, please try harder to be more radical in your"gender criticalness" trying to get off to your bigotry here.🤣🤣 Stop dancing around it ffs.

Why does the speaker say"medical co.plications" so fast and in the morning middle of sentences? Why don't you as a doctor elaborate on the medical problems you seem to go on about the unimportant bull....i am not happy about this video i feel you are misrepresenting the same and why these people are not satisfied with the mutilation on healthy young vibrant humans frank insteinmaker...stay away from children

Thought the OU banned critical engagement?

All DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity) cadres in all Institutions (Universities, NHS, Museums, the Civil Service, Government) should be sacked immediately.

Rosa's work is so important and interesting. Thank you for sharing this interview.

21:00 Is it that the meaning scrambler violates free speech? In the first case, the voice scrambler, it is the case that the speakers speech is being altered and their freedom to speak freely is impeded. In the second case, the meaning scrambler, the speech is technically happening freely, it is merely not being understood. So its the listeners right to listen thats being messed with not the speakers right to speak. But I suppose if there was a situation where someone held a speaking event and hearers were prevented from going, and thus from hearing and understanding the speakers ideas, then it would be an affront to both the speakers freedom of speech and the listeners freedom of movement/assembly. So I guess the freedom of speech then is actually better understood as the freedom to communicate which entails both speaking and hearing and so it is preserved by preserving the right to speak and not interfering with the right to hear. I suppose thats a good understanding of Mary Leng's ideas.

I remember that doctor who episode. It was pretty good. That was a gripping scene and its a pretty good analogy for the GC debate.

I would love to see a study which adresses the co prevalence of other personality disorders with "trans" like histrionic pd or borderline. In which I would wonder if "trans" was just a way for the attention seeking parts of the named pds. Also the autistic "trans" people. I'm wondering if those would have the same "gender disphoria" if they were the actual other sex. Like as if it is just a sign of them not grasping the whole sex/identity stuff - just feeling different/misfit - therefore... trans. Also as a biological female I'm often appaled by the representation of womanhood by trans women. As if womanhood was defined by how much you like make-up, nail polish and high heels. It is often a pretty male approach to womanhood.

very comprehensive

Very informative. Thanks for sharing some real stats.

Thank you for focusing on actual research and what we can take away from it.

Thank you for sharing the facts in a compassionate but fair way.

Sounds like a perfectly valid area of research. Clearly a lot of people are making assumptions without actually engaging with the work itself.

Wow, this was very informative. Rosa is doing great work in the world. Well done.

Having both sex and gender ID on the census would actually be really helpful for gathering info about trans numbers in the UK. Knowing the real numbers could help for funding, etc. It just makes sense to gather both stats.

Thank you! I am going back over lectures to refresh my memory and to learn how to talk to folks about this more that it’s heating up. I feel that this is an Egregore and not evolution.

Thank you!

I appreciate the conversations. I don't see why we are transforming the word gender to encompass all of our characteristics and personality traits. I think it's become an over-complication of the concept of gender that has become so loaded that people have become tribal, use it as a political weapon, or to get away with mal intentions. I like the direction we were taking in the 80s and 90s, when we preached a woman didn't have to exist in any box, and a man didn't have to exist in any box. Now people are using gender to create thousands of new boxes.

Dr. Littman and her research are very impressive!

Touch rugby? TOUCH RUGBY?! That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of. That’s not rugby. Anyone who has been through male puberty has a huge advantage in most sports. That’s unfair. But the inclusion of male-bodied athletes in contact sport is just plain dangerous.

I have spent the last two months studying this issue in depth, because one of my sons is strongly in favor of the gender ideology - although, thank heavens, he doesn’t imagine himself to be a woman. I have tried to understand and to be sympathetic to transgender people, but the illogical and contradictory statements of the gender ideologues has moved me to despair. I think the gender ideology is a retrogressive movement which holds gender stereotypes as important.

Isn't it the same thing that happened to people that had doubts about the vaccines. Novax they were labelled in italy, anti-vax in the uk and no serious debate managed to surface. I am an anti-vax terf. Alas.

What about diabetes? Clean water?

So does the research network have a research agenda or program?, or is it secret - to enable one to actually research. As I see it you should research these myths: - transwomen are "women" - people have gendered souls - gender critical debate "endangers" students - there's more than two genders - gender self-identification is a thing when applied to contra-sex genders - we are assigned gender at birth <- I suspect that unless one critially looks at these myths you are just going to dance around, or stab yourself in the back, without moving forward. BTW: "patriarchy"! <- oh really! How exactly are trannies patriarchs? More like anti-patriarchs. BTW: "sex bodies" <- If you are going to speak gender babble you're already lost.

I appreciate your work, Dr. Littman.

I pray that jesus covers you go through this and continues to cover you as you go through this and anyone else going through this too, jesus knows what your going through, i pray that you trust and believe in the lord,god bless you xxxPrayers go out to the people and their families going through this and And you and your family and friends too 🙏❤x

Thank you so much 🙏

U were talking about the friend groups of 3 and 5 my sister is in one of those and she believes she’s trans and they do exactly what you said also a bit later u were talking about how the sexuality could do it to / I feel this could also be the reason because she wants to be a gay man she hates straights so I feel this has something to do with it to

I am shocked (but not surprised) that in the slide "Reasons for Transition" only 62% and 71% said the reason was to alleviate gender dysphoria. That number should be 100%. So many of these other reasons are nonsense and are NOT a reason to transition. To me, this slide just goes to show that kids are not capable of making a decision like this. And even if they transition when they are over 18...once they start on puberty blockers and hormones, there's almost no turning back.

A thoughtful, systematic way to look at this issue.

I cannot see Cathy's point on option 4. Cathy spends a huge amount of time arguing how sport is asymmetric then says she doesn't like option 4 because it is "asymmetric". In my view option 4 reflects the reality of sport, just as having an open age category alongside under 18s and over 40s categories (we don't have an exclusive 18-40 category). Lastly I would say that Cathy (who I side with on a lot of this) makes the point that women must decide how the women's category is formulated. The corollary of this is surely that it is for men to decide whether to turn our category into an open category, not for Cathy and her fellow women, yet Cathy seems to talk about it as if changes to the men's category purely in terms of women and women's interests. I find that all a bit odd, if I am honest.

One of the 6 faces disagrees with Simon.

Time to unite against the fear and oppression.

Great discussion, thank you Jo Phoenix for your courage and your integrity. I wish more people had the courage to speak up and not give in to a small, but very vocal and toxic lobby.

I just stumbled upon this. Wow. nearly a year ago!

I’ve only just found out you exist. Thank you 🙏

Shame on the Open University for not defending Prof Jo Phoenix when she was bullied and harrassed by transactivists within the Open University.
