As part of my series on the Tavistock I included episodes on Di Ceglie, who founded the childhood and adolescent service in the Gender Clinic. This was based on a talk he gave at a conference.
Part One
This was the conference subtitle. I am pretty sure the metaphors are a way of not looking, head on, at the fact this service is sterilising children, who are autistic or look like they may turn out gay,
In part one he talks about his reason for setting up the service for children and adolescents. He explains that he was prompted to do so after helping a suicidal female who identified as “trans” and, we are told, suicide ideation evaporated once she had access to “gender affirming” drugs and surgeries.
In this talk he shares the reaction of one of his colleagues. I think we are seeing the answer to this question playing out at gender clinics all over the world and in the growth of detransitioners.

Part Two
Di Ceglie proceeds to talk about the pressures on the service from both within and without the service to adopt a more medical model in response to their clientele. He talks about the presence of crusaders in his field.
He’s very keen to reject any accusation that they practice conversion therapy in relation to “Gender Identity”. He shows no concern about practicing Gay conversion therapy. He describes their model as partly affirmative and permissive about socially transitioning kids.
He fast forwards through a number of slides which meant I had to slow the YouTube to 25% of normal speed to get this slide. In the preceding slide he claimed the effects of puberty blockers are “considered reversible”. Look at this list of risks. 👇
Part Three
This covers the question and answer session. Excellent question from Bob Withers.
Another man raises the difficulty of distinguishing between a proto-gay kid and a “transgender” kid but the answer he is given is basically straight out of the Trans activists playbook and basically accepts that some men can be “lesbians”. Nobody challenges him about this.
I will leave the final word to a trans-identified male who also performs surgeries for this market. Marci Bowers has recently conceded that these kids will have zero sexual function.
