Weekly News Roundup July 8-14
JK Rowling, Senate hears testimony that "men can get pregnant"
Happy Friday! After so many news to share last week (we literally reached the Substack post length limit and had to cut down), we’re quite glad this is a slow news week. Here’s our roundup.
JK Rowling, Our Hero
7/10/2022 - JK Rowling stands firm on ‘woke’ gender theory harm, blasts ‘gender activist’ doctor over dignity, privacy
One thing we’re so thankful for in this gender mess is that we have JK Rowling on our side. She is an absolute hero. This week alone, she quashed Woke Bros and Rightist men alike, giving no quarters in her lonely, trailblazing battle to defend women. She dressed down Matt Walsh for his wrongful accusation that women aren’t standing up for themselves pushing back against Leftist misogyny, “Dr. Em” for calling a disabled woman “disgusting” for not wanting intimate care by trans-identifying men, and Jason Whitlock for trying to chastise her for not backing Matt Walsh.

Erasing Women and Women’s Safe Spaces
7/12/2022 - Witness calls Josh Hawley ‘transphobic’ during Senate hearing about abortion rights
Women in America are losing their right to abortion. But in Congress, the issue is being debated by ultra-conservative, anti-abortion lawmakers like Josh Hawley and the unhinged Woke leftists living in the Ivory Tower like Berkeley law professor Khiara Bridges who is obliterating abortion rights as a women’s issue. As these ideologues push their political agenda, women have all but been sidelined into collateral damages.
In this exchange, Bridges succeeded in making Josh Hawley look sane and reasonable by insisting that men can give birth, and Hawley is “transphobic” for knowing otherwise. We’re doomed.
7/13/2022 - Big, burly man spotted using the women’s bathroom at the Dublin Airport, because he can.
Remember how they said this would never happen? That no man without gender dysphoria would purposely dress up as a woman to go into the woman’s bathroom? But of course as we’ve always said, this would very much happen. Furthermore, whenever the anti-women crowd get their demand, they would move the goalpost even further. Now, men don’t even be gender dysphoric or dress like a woman to enter spaces where women undress. With self-ID, they can walk right in as a man, and women who feel unsafe cannot object or raise any concerns. Safetyism is for men only. Women must remain silent even if they feel unsafe.
The truth remains, an overwhelming majority of people don’t want mixed-sex bathrooms. In Britain, a poll of 7000 people hosted by the campaign group Sex Matters found that an overwhelming 98 per cent of respondents wanted to be able to get undressed, shower or use the lavatory away from members of the opposite sex. We hope the authorities in Britain will heed their citizens’ wishes, and be the guiding light as we wade through this madness.
7/12/2022 - German Self-ID to Allow Changing Legal Sex Once a Year
Germany plans to pass a bill by the end of 2022 that would allow anyone aged 14 years old and up to change their legal sex and first name by simply filling out a form at the registry office.
Males in Female Sports
7/11/2022 - 10yo trans girl in 2013 is now a 6'2" tall man playing on the woman's basketball team
Coach Blade reports:
7/9/2022 - Caster Semenya to make surprise comeback at world championships
Caster Semenya is listed to compete at today’s world championships in Oregon for the women's 5000m, an event she has turned to after being banned from running in her favorite 800m race by track and field's testosterone regulations.
Also on the World Athletic Championships 2022 entry list is Francine Niyonsaba, a male from Burundi with the same DSD as Semenya. Along with Semenya, Niyonsaba and one other individual with DSD, took all three spots on the medals podium in the women’s 800m race at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Today, Niyonsaba will be competing in the same event as Semenya, as well as in the women’s 10,000m. Both Niyonsaba and Semneya are now entering longer distances races in the women’s division, where why aren not required to lower their testosterone levels.
As they say, once a cheater, always a cheater.
News Impacting Society and Children
7/12/2022 - New WHO guidance says gender ‘not limited to male or female’
The World Health Organization continues its departure from science and real with its plan to update its guidance on gender to declare that “sex is not limited to male or female.” How do they expect us to continue to “believe science” when “science” defies reality?
WHO’s official announcement on its website:
7/10/2022 - Church of England: There is ‘no official definition’ of a woman
The Church of England doesn’t want to miss out of gender trending either.
Now that Right-Wing Politicians, Woke Liberal Academic Elite, and Religious Establishments are all taking center stage to proclaim women either (i) should not have equal human rights to control their own bodies, (ii) women and women’s rights don’t even exist at all. When will women—the biological kind, the kind who don’t have the privilege of indulging in delusions and luxury beliefs, who are just trying to make it through life—finally have their say?
7/10/2022 - Oregon mom challenges state law requiring tampons in boy’s bathrooms
Not to be outdone by San Francisco’s failed attempt to spend thousands of dollars to rename school commemorating problematic historical figures like George Washington and Dianne Feinstein, Oregon adopted a state law requiring schools to provide free tampons in all bathrooms, including boys’ and men’s. A mom who didn’t get the memo that biological sex has been cancelled is bringing suit to challenge the law. Meanwhile, we wonder, could school funding not be put to better use? Maybe text books and school supplies for low-income students?

July 1, 2022 - Jordan Peterson suspended from Twitter for 'hateful conduct' towards Elliot Page
We ran out of space and couldn’t fit this piece in last week. The Bard himself could not have come up with this dumpster fire starring Jordan Peterson, Ellen/Eliot Page, and Twitter.
