NHS Directs Trans Patients to Use ‘Gender Construction Kit’
The NHS has been slammed for promoting a ‘gender construction kit’ that offers trans patients advice on how to use wigs and make-up to look like women. The Mailhas more.
It also offers tips on using nail varnish, eyelash extensions, perfume and the correct underwear to transition to their desired gender.
The advice, which has been published on a website, lists different gender pronouns would-be transitioners could choose from, including the options “Zie”, “Fae” and “Spivak”.
The “kit” also gives patients advice on the use of hormones to reduce body hair, suppress libido and reduce fertility.
The advice, which has been shared by NHS trusts across the country, also has information on surgeries to reduce the size of the Adam’s apple, remove or enlarge breasts as well as the removal of genitalia and replacement with imitations.
NHS trusts such as Leeds and York, Sussex, Devon and Cumbria Northumberland and Tyne and Wear, have all included the “gender construction kit” on their websites. …
The kit seems to be encouraging readers, advising them to “listen to your discomfort” adding: “Are there things about your body that make you uncomfortable? Do you feel like something is wrong when you do something in particular?
“Perhaps you feel jealous that other people get to use clothes, names, or words that you can’t or unable to shake the feeling that you aren’t the way other people see you?”
In the introduction to the kit, it states that these things can be changed, and suggests that patients “try different underwear”. …
It adds that it is best to begin trying to change gender markers before being entirely certain about the process, stating: “It can be really tempting to wait until you feel more certain about things, but that uncertainty probably won’t go away just from waiting.
“The best way to find out what’s right for you is to try things out.” …
But it is not clear who exactly wrote the guidance, which is now being spread around the taxpayer-funded health service. …
Helen Joyce, an author and co-founder of Sex Matters, told the Telegraph: “This isn’t healthcare, and it’s dangerous. NHS trusts should immediately remove any link to the kit and investigate why it was possible that they endorsed something so harmful and misguided.”
She added distress about your sex has become far more common in the past decade due in large part because schools, universities and healthcare professionals have spread that discomfort with your body may be down to ‘gender identity’.
Some years ago I used to observe a bloke who turned up at Costa regularly, dressed as a woman.
You could immediately see a few telltale signs: the muscle tone of his legs and arms were wrong. Likewise the face was too masculine. Finally, he looked too desperate – the absolute shortest miniskirt, all “whoreish” provocative looks.
Basically he only managed to look like a caricature of a woman.
I struggled not to laugh, although then again, I am at liberty to laugh if I feel like it.
A few months ago, in the High St of my local small west country town, a man clearly in his 70s, with long grey hair was wearing a mini skirt and high heels.
He complimented his appearance with a long grey beard (not designer stubble, a real beard).
In other words – an Exhibitionist, so I ignored him. They are best ignored.
NHS: It’s outdated, clumsy and offensive to stereotype people and make judgements on how they should look based on their sex. There’s a lot more to being a woman than how you look. Also NHS: Women have long hair and wear makeup and dresses so do some cosplay and become a woman if you feel uncomfortable as a man.

‘nail varnish, eyelash extensions, perfume and the correct underwear’
Isn’t it ridiculous? I’m certainly not wearing the first three. Not sure about the fourth! (But then I am a real woman.)
Real women don’t have to go over the top to look like a woman but if they go over the top, they still look like a woman.
And that’s because… well, they are women.
In my cycling club way back in the 1980s there was one cyclist who was obviously a man. But this was not what was noticeable. It was the fact that whereas all the female cyclists wore cycling clothing for a day out riding a bike he wore a mini skirt, carried a shoulder bag and (in those pre helmet days) wore a large beret at a jaunty angle.
It looked odd. Some might say he was wanting to call attention to himself
Robert De Niro seems fully supportive of his son turning into a ‘female’. Oops, forgot..we’re supposed to always exclusively blame the mother, aren’t we?🙄
”Robert De Niro’s transgender son reveals his famous dad offered to go with him to his hormone appointment to help him transition to a ‘woman.’
“He even offered to go with me to appointments and stuff when I was first starting the hormones.”
I’m thinking that’s a common theme amongst the whole sorry lot of ’em. Irrespective of their sex. Anti-Trump epic Woketards. Bruce Springsteen being yet another one with a bad case of TDS. Something about performers/celebs.
I am angry about the amount of money wasted on this handful of people following the latest fad, who will soon be changing back when it suits them.
What about the larger numbers of women and men with cancer who get no help rebuilding their ravaged bodies, faces and minds.

One of the reasons the NHS can’t deliver basic healthcare services for those who are genuinely ill or in pain (ie hip replacements) is because they are wasting £tens of millions on this kind of nonsense.

So let me get this right.
You cannot get a GP appointment for weeks, you have to wait years for life changing surgery which allows the sick and injured person to return to a normal life, your teeth can rot and fall out, you can die of cancer whilst waiting for screening. BUT if you feel you are a girly, get thrill out of putting on a frock, out of the way those people your Trans feelings are more important than Cancer.

Once again “The NHS” . Who are the instigators let us see them. While hiding behind “The NHS” they can promulgate views that shouldn’t be associated with what should be a serious organisation.
“Most people have 23 pairs of chromosomes that code our genetic makeup, with one pair determining sex. Males are born with an X chromosome, with genes inherited from their mother, and a Y chromosome, from their father.”
“…some studies have shown a strong link between the androgen receptor gene on the X chromosome (passed down from the mother) and male pattern hair loss, with some suggesting this gene may account for up to 70% of its likelihood.”
That explains why some fathers have a full head of hair even into old age, while sometimes one or more of their sons goes bald early. It also explains why one son may be balding while another son is not. The genes for baldness are inherited from the mother.

They never look like women, just hairy arsed blokes in drag.
This person just looks like a child in dressing up clothes to me;

To quote one or two of the OG commenters from back in the day of the old Lockdown Sceptics – it’s utter bollocks!
Btw, I am not an expert on “correct female underwear” but La Perla are meant to be good, if a little pricey.
Real women don’t have to go over the top to look like a woman but if they go over the top, they still look like a woman.

De Niro is a Far Left nutter these days.

Should have stuck with being Harry Tuttle.

Taxpayers shafted again.
Here’s an interesting snippet I learned today:
Is it true that … male pattern baldness is inherited from the mother?
“Most people have 23 pairs of chromosomes that code our genetic makeup, with one pair determining sex. Males are born with an X chromosome, with genes inherited from their mother, and a Y chromosome, from their father.”
“…some studies have shown a strong link between the androgen receptor gene on the X chromosome (passed down from the mother) and male pattern hair loss, with some suggesting this gene may account for up to 70% of its likelihood.”
That explains why some fathers have a full head of hair even into old age, while sometimes one or more of their sons goes bald early. It also explains why one son may be balding while another son is not. The genes for baldness are inherited from the mother.
Fascinating.
