Duped by "Trans Women Are Women" Stonewall Day Count
On 18th Nov 2021, on Woman’s Hour on Radio 4, Nancy Kelley, the CEO of Stonewall, conceded twice that it was not possible to change sex1. This is Day 1 of the Duped by “Trans Women Are Women” Stonewall. The Day Count is the number of days from that day that the addressee has remained duped. The higher the number of days, the more resistant the addressee has been to making use of their critical faculties.
The identifier “Trans Women Are Women” Stonewall references the introduction in 2015 of Ruth Hunt’s “Trans Women Are Women, get over it” slogan and the addition of the ‘T’ to the LGB logo.
Same-sex marriage should have been Stonewall's swan song; their work was done. The “Trans Women Are Women” mantra is abusive gaslighting, and has now been exposed as such.
For any organization, government entity, public institution, NHS Trust, university, school or private company etc. that continues to promulgate the fiction that a male observed at birth can become a biological female, or remains in the Stonewall Diversity Champions Scheme or on the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index the Duped by “Trans Women Are Women” Stonewall day count will be included after the date in correspondence to them. It is to remind the addressee to ask him- or her-self three questions:
Why am I the bedfellow of an organization that duped me into believing that a male observed at birth can become a biological female?
How can I trust all the policies that Stonewall has instructed my organization to adopt if they are based on a falsehood, and with the intention of stealthily inculcating Gender Identity Ideology into my organization?
What does equality and the balancing of rights mean when Stonewall requested the United Nations to downgrade Britain’s equality watchdog the EHRC, and failed in its request, because it did not agree with the EHRC’s advice on the proposed ban on conversion therapy2?
Ten years ago no one would have questioned the fact of the binary (male/female) and immutable nature of biological sex. Yet, Stonewall’s “Trans Women Are Women, get over it” mantra and its #NoDebate stance, and the push for Gender Identity by other lobby groups such as Mermaids and Gendered Intelligence, and GIRES3 has resulted in the widespread ideological capture and acceptance of the false belief that sex (and or gender) is a spectrum and one can identify in and out of any sex/gender category, with or without medical intervention.
It is only recently that there has been a pushback to re-establish the fact of biological sex.
On the 14th October 2021, on BBC’s Question Time, Professor Robert Winston (FMedSci, FRSA, FRCP, FRCOG, and FREng) said "I will say this categorically, you cannot change your sex"
On 18th November 2021, on Woman’s Hour on Radio 4, Nancy Kelley, the CEO of Stonewall, conceded twice that it was not possible to change sex.
On 8th December 2021, Sussex University (where Professor Kathleen Stock had been persecuted for her ‘gender critical’ views) confirmed to me by email that it was not the University’s position that “a male observed at birth can become a biological female”4
On 20th March 2023, on the ‘Piers Morgan Uncensored’ programme the evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins FRS and Emeritus Fellow of New College, Oxford, said “As a biologist there are two sexes and that’s all there is to it”5

Appendix: It is not possible to change sex
Below is a transcript of the conversation between Nancy Kelley of Stonewall and Emma Barnett of the BBC regarding whether it is possible to change sex.
16:07 minutes into the programme.
Emma: Do you believe a person can change their biological sex?
Nancy: I definitely believe they can change their sex characteristics, some but not all of them. That's, that's what the purpose of people going through a medical transition, for those that go through medical transition, is.
Emma: That again wasn't my question. Yes, you can of course have surgery and hormones but do you believe a person can change their biological sex?
Nancy: So, I don't believe, and I don't think anybody believes that Trans people's bodies are identical to Cis people's bodies. No.
Emma: When you say Cis, for our audience you mean?
Nancy: People like me that, when I was born, they said that’s a girl, and I’ve remained a girl for the rest of my life and haven’t transitioned.
Emma: Because, again, we are talking about language. That’s not language that lots of people will be familiar with, others will be.
Nancy: That’s right and mostly we don’t need to use it, right. I think we only use the kind of Cis Trans language when we’re talking about differences between Cis and Trans people. The rest of the time we just get on with people and men and women.
Emma: So when I ask you do you believe a person can change their biological sex, your answer is?
Nancy: If that is everything that goes into making a sexed body, no

Replace wording in the position statement from Sussex University: “the owner of the “Sex Not Gender Identity” substack by email” to “confirmed to me me by email”;
Remove the praise of Stonewall on their LGB work as they no longer represent the rights of the same-sex attracted, but the rights of same-gender attracted people (whatever that means for 70+ genders).
