E362. Why The Trans Fad Is Fading - Meghan Murphy

Meghan Murphy returns to the podcast to discuss the success of the UK's TERFs, and explains why the trans fad is fading in the Britain and America, but Canada, Australia and New Zealand still haven't gotten the memo. She and Bridget discuss the WPATH files and the Cass Review, the lie that puberty blockers wouldn't have permanent effects, the devastation the ideology has wrought among desperate parents and children who were sold a bill of goods from "experts", and the insanity that therapists and doctors are not allowed to raise valid questions or concerns that might challenge a minors' declared gender identity. They also cover their Gen X upbringings, the birth control pill, how we've all bought into a surveillance state, the joy of readying physical books, the balance between being a Doomer and a Techno Optimist, bone broth, music, why everyone in the world should re-read 1984, and why an "I've Never Had Chlamydia" t-shirt would be a bestseller. Check out Meghan's Substack - https://bit.ly/WiW-MeghanMurphy--------------------------------------------------------------------- Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy - Podcast Bridget Phetasy admires grit and authenticity.
