A few things I hope are gradually getting through to the general public: * “Be kind” is a good thing to say to your children. As a principle of public policy, however, it signifies a lack of seriousness and a refusal to get informed and take difficult decisions. * It is impossible to support “LGBTQ+ rights”. The demands of people who claim to be the opposite sex are diametrically opposed to the rights of people with same-sex sexual orientation. * Telling people who think they are the opposite sex - and who want hormones and surgery to change their bodies - that they are not mentally ill is cruel and irresponsible. It makes it harder for them to get the mental health care they need and places a huge burden on society, especially women and girls and LGB people. * The replacement of “Women’s Studies” with “Gender Studies” at universities has created a generation of graduates in a pseudo-discipline with less coherence than astrology and has obscured the foundations and history of the feminist movement. * “Gender identity” is a sexist, homophobic concept that needs to be consigned to the dustbin of history asap.
