A fiery confrontation unfolded on TalkTV as host Julia Hartley-Brewer stood her ground against transgender guest Shivani Dave regarding the use of pronouns during a live broadcast. Dave, a transgender activist and journalist who insists on being referred to as “they/them”, was introduced by Hartley-Brewer using “she/her” pronouns, sparking an intense exchange.
As the segment commenced, Dave attempted to correct the host about his preferred pronouns. In response, Hartley-Brewer asserted her stance firmly, “Yeah, thank you for telling me your pronouns. I use correct grammar. So, the only term I would need to address you directly would be ‘you.’”
“But let me clarify that I’m not being disrespectful; you have the freedom to choose your pronouns or how you want to be addressed, but you cannot force me to use grammatically incorrect and factually inaccurate terms,” argued Hartley-Brewer. “You are not a plural entity but a single individual and biologically female at that. Therefore, I will continue to use ‘she’ and ‘her.’. You do what pleases you.”
Hartley-Brewer remained unyielding throughout the interview, emphasizing her dedication to “correct grammar” and factual precision in language usage. She stated defiantly that she chose the correct pronouns for a single woman appearing on her show even while Dave tried repeatedly to assert his non-binary identity.

In recent years, we’ve seen an alarming surge in transgender children being subjected to hormonal treatments and surgeries to alter their gender. Dave was part of the discussion about the newly published Cass Review on transgender health services, authored by Dr. Hilary Cass, an English pediatrician.
NHS England commissioned this review with the aim of improving the quality, safety, and effectiveness of support extended to this community. The report noted a significant increase in young individuals seeking these services, attributing it to a convoluted mix of biological, psychological, and social factors.
The report also highlighted the inconsistency in clinical approaches and the divergence between these methods and standard clinical expectations. This has resulted in some healthcare providers being reluctant to engage with these groups. The review also criticized the quality of existing evidence, emphasizing a considerable gap in data necessary for making reliable clinical decisions and enabling informed choices by patients and their families. Concerns were particularly raised about early medical interventions such as puberty suppression and gender-affirming hormones in minors due to the absence of solid data on their long-term impacts.
The recommendations suggest a shift towards more uniform NHS practices that focus on comprehensive assessments and personalized care plans that not only address gender incongruence but also include broader mental health and psychosocial challenges.

The entitlement of all the alphabet people is unreal!

She’s certainly “special” but not in the way she’d like to think. ????

This is what it’s all about. The people focusing on use of pronouns etc just want to be ‘special’ and different from everyone else. It’s narcissistic.
