Stonewall has weathered years of controversy to remain powerful political force
But in recent years the charity's fight has pivoted to more ideological territory
There is increasing awareness among parents, caregivers, clinicians and therapists that there is a clear link between gender identity issues and Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
We know that currently, 76% of referees to The Tavistock & Portman Gender Identity Service (GIDS) are adolescent girls, and we also know from The Tavistock’s statistics that 48% either have a diagnosis of, or show traits of Autism.
Altogether, this is an astonishing number of young people sharing characteristics that are usually only present in 1% of the population. While there is clear evidence that there is a link between the number of children and young people with gender dysphoria or identifying under the transgender umbrella, there is no research that looks at why. Part of the reason for this is that the exponential rise in children and young people experiencing gender dysphoria or identifying as trans has taken place very quickly – too fast in fact, for research to keep up.
A controversial surgeon admitted he is performing irreversible sex surgeries on pre-pubescent children.
Dr. Blair Peters, who identifies as “queer” himself, was educated in Canadian and works at Oregon Health & Science University.
“It’s a very complicated issue,” he claims.

The INTENTIONAL GROWTH of the Gender Identity business from the 1960’s to the the 1980’s — Charing Cross Hospital Gender Identity Clinic & Harry Benjamin & creating the WPATH monste
I fully support the idea of a National Health Service….. here is some history of how it came to be and where we are now:
The Emergency Hospital Service (later Emergency Medical Service) was established at the outbreak of World War II in 1939, giving central government a right of direction over voluntary and municipal hospitals. The service was a loose alliance of separate organisations, working together to deal with a national emergency, but paved the way for separate and competing institutions to come together as part of the National Health Service.
The first F-M sex-change operation in a transsexual patient, i.e. the construction of a penis (so-called phalloplasty), allegedly took place in the Netherlands in Arnhem in 1959–1960. The first university-based gender clinics operated in the United States from the early 1960s to approximately 1980. During this two-decade period, doctors and researchers would attempt to find a cause and a psychiatric treatment (i.e., a cure) for transsexuality.
They would ultimately fail in this search for an aetiology/etiologic cause and would move toward surgical and hormonal treatments….
INTERIM SERVICE SPECIFICATION
Interim Specialist Service for Children and Young People with Gender Incongruence
The Service will provide care to children and young people, and their families, who
express gender incongruence and who are likely to benefit from clinical support.
The Service will adopt a holistic, multi-disciplinary integrated approach to assessing
and responding to an individual’s needs in view of the range of co-presentations
that may typically present in this patient cohort, and the range of complexities
relating to gender identity development. The most appropriate clinical pathway in
the best interests of the child or young person will be determined through an
integrated multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach, fully involving the child or young
person and their family................
