1./ Gender Identity Nuts How did we end up with rapists in women's prisons? Let's start with Alfred Kinsey who set out to overturn views of sex in 1948. He'd a fetish for harming his penis. His Report had a problem too, as this show revealed. The P Word. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1y48zh
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
2./ Kinsey's Report relied on dodgy evidence not least from a notorious paedophile who "researched" so-called "infant orgasm". Here's one of Kinsey's disgusting colleagues defending the fact the paedophile had sex with kids. Kinsey's work inspired sex researchers. But...
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
3./ It left a legacy of failure to treat child safeguarding seriously. In 1955 John Money theorised that children could have an inner gender identity that did not match their physical sex. He championed 'sex change surgery' including for a 13 year old... 'Brenda' Reimer. But...
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
4./ 'Brenda' was a boy whose penis was accidentally burned off as a baby. Money told his parents to raise him as a girl. He even used a transsexual to try to convince the boy to have a neo-vagina created. The boy refused. At the end Anne Fausto-Sterling defends Money's attempt.π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
5./ In 1993, Fausto-Sterling had championed the notion there weren't just two sexes but a spectrum. She later claimed the proposed number of 5 sexes was satire but the spectrum entered the mainstream and is now defended by some scientists who really should know better. π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
6./ Fausto-Sterling's work relied heavily on John Money's but he promptly wrote to the NY Times to slam it as factually inaccurate. His work was anyway deeply troubling. He argued sexual relationships between adults and children could be mutually beneficial. But..
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
7./ Money was discredited after he cited 'Brenda' Reimer as a huge success and proof that sex was malleable. In fact it was a huge disaster. 'Brenda' - as David- later committed suicide after denouncing the perverse experiments Money ran on him and his naked twin brother.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
8./ By the time he was discredited in 1997 the gender identity movement Money inspired was exploding. In '92, Kate Bornstein's book 'Gender Outlaw' popularised the notion trans was progressive. This despite the fact Bornstein spent 12 years in the senior ranks of Scientology.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
9./ It wasn't long before the idea of identifying as something you're not began to appeal to a ...wider spectrum. Stefoknee Wolscht, a Canadian trans activist, and ex jail bird, argued 'she' was really a 6 year old girl and campaigned to be allowed to use the little girls' room.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
10./ If any of this seemed untenable or suspect it soon became difficult to oppose it. LGBTQ+ organisations like Stonewall encouraged institutions and employers to enforce the new ideology. Staff activists underlined the message. Here's taxpayers money being wasted at the @DWP
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
11./ The media got in on the act too, churning out propaganda. Here's a snippet from the BBC's infamous schools educational video telling 11 year olds that there are over 100 different genders. The video was only withdrawn after 2 years of protest by the likes of @ALLIANCELGB
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
12./ Within schools a legion of bizarre organisations fanned out to inculcate ever more extreme versions of LGBTQ+ orthodoxy. 'Educate and Celebrate' for example were paid taxpayers' money to 'smash heteronormativity in primary schools". Which isn't scary at all..
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
13./ What's the result of this baloney on kids? Some "parents" are raising kids without any notion of gender (I think they actually mean sex). I wonder if lawyers across the US are drawing up timetables for when certain kids reach adulthood ....and can sue.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
14./ If kids aren't sent to surgeons they may be able to pull their lives together. Here's Jazz Jenning's very caring surgeon explaining because of puberty blockers Jazz's genitals never developed. Jazz describes "her" vagina as a 'frankenvagina'. John Money would surely approve.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
15./ Here's that surgeon telling @MattWalshBlog there's no connection between wanting to chop off genitals and chop off limbs. This is strange because the person who first studied wannabe amputees and compared it to sex change surgery was gender identity's pioneer: John Money.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
16./ Marcia Bowers describes wanting to chop your leg off as 'kooky' but sex change surgery is apparently never kooky. Yet transition late in life often leaves an unconvincing appearance. This is why activists began to promote puberty blockers as a solution. But...
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
17./ This brings trans activists into direct conflict with lesbians and gays who can see no reliable way to separate so-called "trans kids" from other gender non conforming kids. Our suspicion deepens when trans activists argue homosexuality will just have to disappear.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
18./ Nor does it help that some LGBTQ+ activists embrace medical procedures as some sort of sexual fetish. Here's a bloke explaining he wants to become a 'null' or eunuch. This raises the prospect of young LGB people being at risk from the promotion of creepy body modification.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
19./ In 2022 the leading trans health care organisation @wpath raised 'eunuch' to the status of a gender identity. Sadiq Khan the @MayorofLondon has not clarified whether he still argues that "all gender identities are valid". Should eunuchs be celebrated in London's schools?
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
20./ Promoting eunuchs as a valid and desirable identity for boys is perhaps the only idea quite as mad as rapists being put in women's prisons. Here's @lisanandy a Labour front bencher defending putting both rapists and paedophiles in the women's estate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUon9j1zJ_E
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
21./ Nandy is Shadow Secretary for Levelling Up. The gay community has got used to another sort of levelling up, where our movement is taken over by straight people who want to seem edgy. Here's Pips Bunce, celebrated as an LGBT+ leader, thanking his/..."her"... wife.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
22./ Luckily, gender ideology is so daft when the public takes notice they're amazed it's taken seriously. Here's the Tate using taxpayers' money to celebrate "Queer" art. Listen to the buffoonery as they try to define a woman artist of the 20s as 'queer' cos ...she wore a suit.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
23./ Let's hope gender identity's powerful adherents continue to loudly proclaim their incoherent demands. The more these activists state clearly what they really want the more the public will understand that they and their demands are as dangerously nuts as it's possible to be.

@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
1./ π§΅The BBC's Guilt. Defenders of the BBC keep insisting it never promoted trans ideology. Yet here's more snippets from the BBC's own schools materials. In this clip primary school kids are told they can be born with a gender identity different from their body. π https://t.co/hoRqqQz6KP
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
2./ Telling children they might be born in the wrong body is profoundly confusing. When they experience puberty they may assume any discomfort they feel is due to this. Here's a woman who had her breasts removed cos she thinks she's male telling kids "everything fits now". π€¦ββοΈ https://t.co/uE5FaL5T0W
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
3./ Here's a clip from the same BBC schools video in which the letters in LGBTQ+ are explained. Primary schools kids are told that Q can mean Queer or Questioning. Aren't most school kids likely to be ... "questioning" and therefore presume Q refers to them? π€π https://t.co/1UG9QyVoLM
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
4./ After a campaign by @AllianceLGB, @Transgendertrd, Christian groups and ordinary parents the BBC was forced to withdraw its schools material including the video arguing there were more than 100 genders including bigender and queer. Then the BBC told a big fat lie. π https://t.co/H0m4Lt2iKq
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
5./ The BBC claimed its schools material, "was never aimed directly at pupils". Yet here's Kate Daniels who devised the BBC materials admitting she travelled the country using them to teach parents, teachers and...yes...children. Look at the age of the kids she gaslit. π https://t.co/pMdfntPSq2
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
6./ Daniels goes on to say the videos she created "put children in the driving seat" and were created with kids in workshops. Even if all this wasn't the case the fact remains these videos were used by teachers like Daniels who actively misled kids with LGBTQ+ bollocks. https://t.co/kLuvMlWHsW
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
7./ The reason the BBC schools materials were so dangerous is they lent the credibility of a national broadcaster which claimed to be a trusted arbiter of the truth to other LGBTQ+ propaganda flooding our schools from truly perverse LGBTQ+ organisations. https://t.co/TLP5PBXt2o
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
8./ The fact the BBC still cannot bring itself to acknowledge the harm done by its flagrant ideological bias is just one reason millions of people cannot trust it. It's impossible to forgive an organisation that arrogantly refuses to admit it did anything wrong.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
9./ As for Kate Daniels: in further proof it is impossible to fail if you spout woke platitudes the woman who told primary school kids there are over 100 genders went on to promote mental health. Including with a badly advised Prince William. She should be in jail. Or an asylum. https://t.co/knwOQU2KWS
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
@Neo_Theorem Great show. Check out the defence in it of John Moneyβs attempt to make the boy have an illegal vaginoplasty by @Fausto_Sterling. Thatβs right the expert that @theAliceRoberts loves to cite on sex v gender.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
1./ π§΅The Lies of Sarah McBride: The Sequel. This leading trans activist claims the trans lobby now faces hostility cos it failed to take the time to convince the public. Yet it was McBride himself who ruthlessly championed the most extreme positions. π https://nytimes.com/2025/06/17/opinion/ezra-klein-podcast-sarah-mcbride.html
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
2./ After @HRC failed to stop a law in North Carolina protecting women's spaces McBride led its revenge campaign to ensure its Republican Governor was not re-elected. "It would send a really important message: if you come for us we're going to come for you", warned McBride.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
3./ Invading women's restrooms was such a complusion for McBride that in a 2018 Google seminar he admitted HRC killed a non-discrimination bill in Philadelphia protecting gay and trans people from employment discrimination just because it had an exemption for women's restrooms. https://t.co/rSXqpPYGF0
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
4./ McBride also admitted at @HRC he worked with angry trans activists to try to silence scientists or academics who opposed their extreme agenda; bullying their employers to try to get them fired, and denigrating their views in the media. There was no attempt to persuade. https://t.co/cAoQMS2Ce1
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
5./ McBride never learned to persuade because he never needed to. His close links to the Bidens helped him wangle a top job at @HRC. Just a month later he became the first trans person to speak at the Democrat Convention. He's always benefited from top down elite politics. https://t.co/GxJ92xjIH6
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
6./ In Delaware, McBride championed Regulation 225 which prevented schools informing parents if their child "identified as transgender". No debate was permitted by McBride. He argued 225 was life-saving and parents who opposed it were bigoted and running "a smear campaign". https://t.co/gzCtKJ0xLl
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
7./ When a compromise was agreed McBride withdrew the bill. It was all or nothing. He refused to be moderate. As a Delaware senator he then proposed a law to police social media and so-called misinformation. How dare people have opinions this tin pot trans tyrant disagreed with. https://t.co/jRi7OYR6En
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
8./ Sarah McBride is a moderate voice in much the same way he's a woman. In other words not at all. In truth he's a manipulative misogynist with a shocking record of political extremism. If you want to read more about that extremism click on the link in my bio. πΌπΌπΌ https://t.co/HPJErTotV7
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
9./ You can also read about McBride's extensive links to the corrupt Bidens in Delaware. It was Biden's lawfare against @elonmusk -combined with the McBride trans lobby's extremism- that pushed Musk into supporting Trump. Something @nytimes is way too captured ever to admit. END https://t.co/YkWFlJ4Ful
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
1./ What motivates the Trans Lobby? Two images sum it all up. The first is of Robert Stoller the man who coined the term 'gender identity' and popularised the idea in the 1960s and 70s. Here he is in Papua New Guinea in 1979. Guess who took the photograph.π https://t.co/edosxNvGee
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
2./ The photographer was Gilbert Herdt who spent the 1970s studying the Sambia tribe who ritually abused young boys. Herdt went on to publicly defend child abuse in the 1990s. His work was then quoted approvingly by @petertatchell in his own defence of paedophilia in 1997. https://t.co/7a4NQLo5qV
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
3./ The other image that explains the trans lobby is this one. "Virginia" Prince set up FPE, the first trans organisation, in the 60s and has been credited with effectively founding the trans movement. He was a psychiatric patient of Robert Stoller's for 27 years. https://t.co/YPMBUtIks3
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
4./ It was almost certainly from " Virginia" that Stoller developed his idea that men embraced a trans identity as revenge on women. Trans identification was, he said, a form of sexual perversion rooted in hate and fear of women. Prince despised women. https://t.co/Akk8CIC7zI
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
5./ That's why Stoller travelled to Papua New Guinea. The Sambia warriors also viscerally despised women. He and Herdt would later theorise Sambia child abuse was a type of behaviour motivated by the same fear fo women that drove trans identification back in America.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
6./ If a trans activist tells you their lobby is progressive remind them of its founding fathers: Virginia Prince who hated women (and gays) and his psychiatrist who concluded trans identification was akin to child abuse. Under the surface pathology still drives the trans lobby.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
1./ Of magic, miracles and the mental health impact of gender identity propaganda. After Emma Corin in a chest binder and Elliot Page's top surgery we're now regaled by Tommy Dorfman reintroduced as a 'woman', who says 'she' was trapped "in the wrong body". Miracle or madness?π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
2./ Dorfman's story was showcased in @TIME whose owner the billionaire Marc @Benioff likes a miracle or two. His own life was magically transformed when he met an Indian guru Mata Amritanandamayi, known as the hugging saint.π https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8281105/How-Indian-guru-taught-life-changing-power-giving-says-philanthropist-Marc-Benioff.html
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
3./ Mata built a vast business empire. Her biography tells a miraculous story of how she survived for a time on a diet of glass and faeces, diverted storms and fed a thousand people from a single pot. That makes Tommy's miracle sound positively mundane.πhttps://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/26/business/ammas-multifaceted-empire-built-on-hugs.html
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
4./ The trans movement itself began with a story that hovered between miracle and madness, 'Man to Woman', the biography of Lili Elbe, who had a sex change op in the 1930s. In 'The Danish Girl', based on her story, Lili learns how to pout from a brothel dancer. Miracle or mad?
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
5./ Lili's story often swings into almost pathological homophobia. For one thing she believed her body was possessed by two people : 'Andreas' and herself. Disgusted by the suggestion Andreas might be homosexual she claims he has to die and "perhaps I am his murderer". Ok...π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
6./ Lili became so delusional she claimed when slices of ovary were inserted into her she was suddenly rejuvenated. Popularised by Eugene Steinach, it was a widely held belief that gland transplants could make you younger. We now know it's bunkum.πhttps://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/health-history-science-science-everywhere/getting-steinached-was-all-rage-roaring-20s
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
7./ Lili's story is full of nonsense like this. Immediately after her op she claims she suddenly spoke with a high-pitched voice and began to "menstruate" through her nose. She also claimed no one recognised her as Andreas which makes one wonder whether everyone was being polite.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
8./ Once she'd suffered extraordinary pain Lili finally felt able to settle down with a man. Self-loathing homosexual? Who knows. Either way, for the next 60 years the desire to chop your body around to fit an inner 'identity' was viewed with suspicion. Then came a revolution.π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
9./ In the 90s, experts in transsexuality like Russell Reid (the key advisor on the Gender Recognition Act) began to argue medicine should affirm any strongly felt inner identity, including those who wanted their limbs amputated. Here's Reid comparing the two conditions. π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
10./ I worked on this BBC Horizon, following a German guy, Hans Schuab, who wanted a leg amputated. Reid interviewed him and declared him completely sane. But here's the thing, he and the surgeon also concluded that Hans's desire to be an amputee was not fetishistic.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
11./ Y'see, fetishism might have suggested an obsession bordering on madness. But it was clear to me there WAS a sexual element to Hans's desire to have a leg removed. Soon after his op it was revealed another guy who was amputated ran a fetish site.πhttps://www.heraldscotland.com/news/12215344.amputee-surgeon-knew-of-sex-link/
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
12./ After the scandal, amputations of healthy limbs on the NHS were banned, despite wannabe-amputees using the same arguments as those who wanted to have "sex change" ops. They claimed, for example, they'd commit suicide unless they lost a limb. Or two.πhttps://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/Health/story?id=1806125&page=1
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
13./ The medical profession solemnly concluded tho that cutting off healthy limbs to satisfy a strange inner identity was just too dangerous. What if it normalised a type of madness and encouraged it? Even Russell Reid concluded the wannabes's psyche "was damaged in some way".
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
14./ But why is wanting to remove a limb the result of a damaged psyche but wanting to remove your breasts or penis isn't? What's the difference between a modern miracle and a form of madness? It's an important question because proponents of elective amputation are back.π
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
15./ In an extraordinary article in 2020 @RichardBGibson defended the removal of healthy limbs including those of Hans; arguing the harm of their amputations would be less than not doing it. Miracle or madness? It depends on who we're talking about.πhttps://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0968533220934529
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
16./ Gibson acknowledges Hans' condition was originally rooted in a type of sexual fetishism. But whether or not removing a limb from Hans made him happier or not what would be the impact on society as a whole of satisfying such fetishes? Gibson is silent on that.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
17./ If doctors and surgeons start changing bodies to fit every inner identity the impact on the mental health of young people and the vulnerable could be considerable. Self-harm is currently considered a mental health condition. This could normalise it. πhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-55730999
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
18./ Most of us would agree that even if a tiny minority felt happier affirmed in their desire to mutilate their body the dangers of the impact on others would outweigh that small benefit. Young people might be misled by uplifting tales, like those of Hans and his now absent leg.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
19./ So what is the impact of a steady stream of "uplifting" tales of people surgically or hormonally transforming their body which they, like Tommy Dorfman, claim is 'wrong'? Might those stories of miraculous transformations contribute to mental health issues for many others?
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
20./ The medics who drove this phenomenon claimed to be full of goodwill and care. As did Russell Reid, before he was found guilty of misconduct. He'd given hormones to a woman who wanted be a man...because she believed she was Jesus. Miracle or madness? πhttps://www.theguardian.com/society/2007/may/25/health.medicineandhealth2
UK's best-known expert on transsexualism is found guilty of serious professional misconduct for rushing five patients into sex-changing treatments, but avoids being struck off.
theguardian.com@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
21./ Is our media exhibiting a similar complacency now to Reid's as they applaud every transition no questions asked? When we look back maybe we'll conclude it wasn't any individual who was mad but society as a whole; gas lit by the stories of 'miracles' that were no such thing.

1./ The truth about Jazz I've written in @spikedonline about Jazz Jennings who the trans lobby claims is an icon. But his medicalisation has left Jazz sterile, mutilated and unable to have a sex life. Jazz isn't an icon of our era. He's a victim 1 of /11 https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/08/20/the-tragedy-of-jazz-jennings/
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
2./ Jazz is just one of hundreds of victims of the UK lobby group Mermaids whom Jazz's mother first consulted. She then took Jazz to see Marilyn Volker, a therapist who had been a sex surrogate. She had sex with her clients, and even married one of them. World class care, eh? https://t.co/UnqU46mZ4D
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
3./ Could Jazz's story have been a grift from the start? I stumbled upon this clip where Jazz introduces himself using his original name, Jaron, 2 years after he was supposed to have socially transitioned. Then he looks at the person who's filming as if he's being corrected. https://t.co/JBNUZ8CAkE
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
4./ Jaron then says, "You can call me Jazz". It's almost as if the boy is being coached and isn't suffering from what his mother described as traumatic gender dysphoria. Or at least could have easily overcome it. Is the truth Jaron was just an effeminate little boy all along?
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
5./ At a conference in 1998 a Mermaids speaker admitted only a third of children exhibiting gender dysphoria "will grow up to be transgendered adults". Over a half would be gay, she said. And that was 25 years ago, before trans became the cause du jour! gender.org.uk/conf/1998/mermβ¦
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
6./ Once puberty blockers became available Mermaids became Britain's foremost campaigners for their use. But if only a third of kids with dysphoria will become trans adults, two thirds of the kids who get medicalised are not receiving any so-called "benefit" from blockers.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
7./ Even those who may become "trans" are being harmed. The cognitive impact of blockers appears to be major and irreversible. Young animals on blockers become more anxious and withdrawn. The Tavistock found they made gender dysphoria worse in many kids.
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
8./ Marci Bowers, Jazz's surgeon, has admitted that no child who goes on blockers at the "recommended time" will ever be able to sexually function properly or orgasm. Yep, thousands of kids are being deprived of their birthright to become a sexual adult. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuwOx9YdHXY&t=103s
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
9./ In 'I Am Jazz' producers have tried to engineer romances but at 21, Jazz has had only 3 brief, Platonic "affairs", one kiss, and no sex. In the latest series this is what passes for passion: a stilted chat about how unique Jazz is. Jazz has been exiled to a sexual desert. https://t.co/yPvh2Gelcr
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
10./ Why are so-called "trans kids" put through all this pain? Do parents and doctors harbour a strange subconscious disgust for effeminate boys and butch girls? How else to explain the glee of Jazz's mum when she recalls how she threatened to "dilate" her teenage son's fauxgina. https://t.co/knpLtQrnP1
@TwisterFilm - Malcolm Clark
11./ Isn't it ironic that gay rights -which began as a movement championing sexual freedom- has been taken over by a cult that now sterilises mainly gay teenagers, robbing them of ...sexual freedom? It's one of the great political own-goals and for victims like Jazz ..a tragedy.
