Culture Wars/Current Controversies

Telling gender truths? Expect threats

By Tom Woods

You may have heard about the Cass Report, published in England by Hilary Cass, former president of the Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health.

According to The Times, “Cass’s NHS review found that an entire field of medicine aimed at enabling children to change gender had been ‘built on shaky foundations.’ She found there was no good evidence to support the global clinical practice of prescribing hormones to under-18s to pause puberty or transition to the opposite sex.”

You will not be surprised to learn that Dr. Cass has been urged not to use public transportation, out of safety concerns. Nice people.

They can intimidate her, but that won’t erase her report, which is a striking and relentless rebuke of the “transition” propaganda.

A Labor MP, Dawn Butler, initially stood up in Parliament and demanded to know why “over 100 papers” on transgender issues had been excluded from the report.

This was a lie, and in fact MP Butler was forced to retract her statement. She “may have inadvertently misled” the House.

Inadvertently, of course.

They have to respond like that, because they have no substantive arguments against it. Cass is a perfectly mainstream figure and is difficult to criticize.

Over the next few weeks I will be releasing my next free eBook: Your Facebook Friends Are Wrong About Gender. It will review the alleged science behind all of this, the experiences of “detransitioners,” and how to inoculate your kids against what we euphemistically call “gender theory.”

Watch this space!

In the meantime, we could all stand some happy news and smiling faces.

This week I held another murder mystery dinner party for supporters, this one on the 42nd floor of the iconic Lotte New York Palace. (Future events are coming up in Portland [Oregon], Charleston, Boston, and New Orleans — details at WoodsMystery.com.)

I am determined to have the best supporters’ program, with the best and most unexpected benefits, of any content creator out there.

This most recent mystery dinner party had a masquerade theme, and I piped in dark masquerade-style music as we dined on coconut shrimp with a mango relish, papaya BBQ baked salmon, grilled citrus chicken with amaretto citrus glaze, jasmine coconut rice, a medley of grilled fruit and vegetables, and salad (romaine, watercress, mango, tomato, cucumber, segment of oranges, shredded coconut), along with dessert and coffee:

Guests mingled and chatted with each other to try to elicit clues and motives.
Special guest Gene Epstein, Soho Forum director, played the resentful butler. Did the butler do it?
Comedian Lou Perez, author of That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore, makes an accusation.
Your host before the festivities.
Our group!
The winner of the evening walked away with a nice prize basket my wife made.

Be a part of the best supporters program on earth and (as one of your zillion benefits) attend one of these parties with me without paying the entry fee (not to mention receiving The Tom Woods Elite Letter, my juicy monthly print newsletter your heart desires):
