Desexing Society

Moira DEEMING (Western Metropolitan) (09:51): I want to stand up today and pay tribute to a wonderful little podcast that I heard recently. It is called Desexing Society. I know that people are wondering what is going on with the Cass review, what is going on with the World Professional Association for Transgender Health files and what is happening in Australia. Why won’t Australia budge? Why won’t they shift? If you are just an ordinary person out there who wants to understand this topic, I cannot recommend this podcast highly enough. It is by Stassja Frei. She is a very good friend of mine, and I admire her work very much. Episode 1 is all about a mother whose daughter was suddenly transitioned and the tragedy that happened there. Episode 2 is called ‘The Dutch Protocol’:

How did an experimental medical treatment “escape the lab” …

Episode 3 is ‘Lifesaving Healthcare’:

Gender clinics promote puberty blockers as safe and reversible. But are they?

Episode 4 is ‘Safe Schools’:

What is queer theory and how did it come to inform school curriculum and school policies?

Episode 5 is ‘Unsafe Schools’:

Should schools be allowed to secretly transition your child without telling you?

Of course the answer is no. Episode 6 is ‘Autogynephilia’, and the topics go on and on. They are fantastic. I cannot recommend it highly enough: Desexing Society.
