“No los malinterpreten”: Activistas trans defienden los pronombres de Ezra Miller en medio de acusaciones de abuso y rapto de una menor de edad

La creciente controversia en torno al historial violento y depredador de Ezra Miller se está dejando a un lado, ya que los activistas trans parecen estar más preocupados por garantizar que el público no “se equivoque” de género a la hora de referirse a la estrella de Flash. Miller, hombre biológico que se identifica como no binario, ha declarado que prefiere los pronombres ellos/ellos/eso y zir.

Miller ha estado en los titulares esta semana después de que una madre acudiera a Twitter para afirmar que Miller le había “lavado el cerebro” a su hija y que no había logrado contactarla. La activista ambiental Sara Jumping Eagle dijo a sus seguidores que su hija, Tokata Iron Eyes, no posee ningún teléfono desde enero de este año y que su familia no ha podido localizarla.

Jumping Eagle dice que su hija y Miller se conocieron en el territorio Sioux de Standing Rock cuando Iron Eyes contaba con apenas 12 años en el 2016. Miller estaba presenciando las protestas de No Dakota Access Pipeline de gran notoriedad en ese momento.

Miller, que para ese entonces tenía 23 años, inició una relación inapropiada con la joven. Sus padres afirman que él le dio LSD, alcohol y otras drogas para ejercer “control” sobre ella. Cuando Iron Eyes tenía 14 años, Miller la llevó a ella y a otros miembros de los Standing Rock Sioux a Londres para visitar el set de Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

Durante el viaje, Jumping Eagle dice que solo un chaperón le impidió a Miller dormir en la misma cama que su hija. Más tarde, Miller ofreció pagar la educación de Iron Eyes en la Universidad de Bard, lo que, según su familia, creó una sensación de “deuda” con él. Tiempo después ella abandonaría la universidad y se iría con Miller.

Desde el principio, Miller había comenzado a exhibir lo que los padres de Iron Eyes describieron como un patrón de “comportamiento controlador, psicológicamente manipulador similar a una secta”. El 7 de junio, un tribunal tribal sioux de Standing Rock otorgó una orden de protección que le exigía a Miller mantenerse alejado de Iron Eyes, pero no se ha podido ubicar a ninguna de las partes para hacer la entrega de documentos.

Si bien Iron Eyes supuestamente publicó una declaración en su Instagram explicando que estaba a salvo, sus padres ya habían notado que Miller tenía el control de sus redes sociales.

Durante el viernes, el Los Angeles Times informó que habían obtenido una copia de la orden judicial, que señalaba que Miller “utiliza la violencia, la intimidación, la amenaza de violencia, el miedo, la paranoia, los delirios y las drogas para dominar a un joven adolescente Tokata. ” Y se enumeraron múltiples incidentes de comportamiento antisocial.

Supuestamente Iron Eyes, actualmente de 18 años, ha decido declararse no binaria y transgénero al igual que Miller, y ahora se hace llamar “Gibson”.

A pesar de la gravedad de las fuertes acusaciones en contra de Miller, algunos activistas trans se han centrado más en vigilar a quienes no respeten la identidad no binaria del actor.

En TikTok, cualquiera que se dirija a Miller con pronombres masculinos se le corrige inmediatamente, mientras que en Twitter, las publicaciones que exigen respeto por la identidad no binaria de Miller acumulan miles de “me gusta” mientras se discuten las acusaciones en su contra y se burlan de quienes tratan de enfocarse en los crímenes más que en sus preferencias.

“Que Ezra agreda a mujeres no significa que esté bien confundir su género. No se te permite recordar su antiguo nombre o equivocarte de género solo porque no te guste o haga algo malo. Eso es transfóbico. A la mierda con Ezra Miller. PERO DEJA DE CONFUNDIRLOS”, tuiteó @AussieRavenclaw.

Algunos usuarios de las redes sociales incluso sugirieron que las acciones de Miller estaban a la par en severidad con confundir su género.

“La gente realmente afirmará ser aliado o afirmará apoyar a las personas que no son cis hasta que dicha personas hagan algo malo. Sí, ellos (ezra) pueden ser una malas personas, pero no deberíamos bajar a su nivel y ser nosotros malas personas al confundir su género”, escribió otro usuario en Twitter.

Según Sara Jumping Eagle, Miller ha estado usando su identidad para protegerse de las críticas, llamando a quienes expresan preocupación por su hija “transfóbicos”.

Jumping Eagle dice: “Si alguien cuestiona las acciones de Ezra, él los acusa racismo o transfóbia, lo cual no es el caso. Se trata de no lastimar a la gente. No te puedes aprovechar de la gente”.

El comportamiento de Miller ha sido objeto de una controversia generalizada a lo largo de los años, comenzando con un incidente del 2020 en Islandia en el que se publicaron imágenes de un video donde Miller se ve ahorcando a una joven fan y luego la arroja al pavimento.

En marzo de este año, Miller fue arrestado luego de una actitud hostil en un bar de karaoke en Hawái. Durante el incidente, le quitó agresivamente el micrófono a una mujer de 23 años y comenzó a gritar obscenidades, y posteriormente llamaron a la policía. En las imágenes de cámara corporal de la policía, se le escuchó a Miller informar a un oficial de sus pronombres y afirmar que la policía estaría cometiendo un crimen de odio si los confundía nuevamente.

Miller también se enfureció por el hecho de que se había asignado a un oficial de policía masculino para realizar la revisión corporal, a lo que respondió: “Soy transgénero no binario y no quiero que me registre un hombre. ¡Reclamo mis derechos de cuarta enmienda!”

El acto vandálico más espantoso, tuvo lugar en abril del 2022, un mes después del último incidente, esta vez el joven de 29 años fue arrestado por agresión en segundo grado. La policía informó que fue acusado de arrojar una silla a una mujer de 26 años dejándola con una herida de media pulgada en la frente. Miller fue acusado de alterar el orden público pero solo recibió una multa de $500 por el ataque.

Según sus padres, Tonkata Iron Eyes estaba con Miller en Hawái durante estos incidentes. En menos de un mes en las islas, Miller fue objeto de 10 llamadas de la policía.

Miller no es el primer hombre violento que usa su identidad de género como escusa para su comportamiento inapropiado.

El año pasado, Christian Weston Chandler, un ícono de Internet de larga data, fue arrestado por cargos de agresión sexual a su madre quien sufre de discapacidad intelectual. Al igual que con Miller, los pronombres de Chandler fueron rápidamente defendidos por activistas trans en las redes sociales.

Fuera de la red, recientemente a un pedófilo en el Reino Unido se le permitió seguir libre en su comunidad después de que un tribunal decidiera que la cárcel sería demasiado dura para él debido a su condición de transgénero.

UK: Trans Activists Push To Strip Funding From LGB Youth Helpline Effort

Trans activists are furious after a UK-based charity announced it had been granted funding to create a new helpline for lesbian, gay and bisexual young people.

On June 10, LGB Alliance announced on their social media pages that they had been awarded funding from the National Lottery Community Fund in an effort to establish a helpline to support lesbian, gay and bisexual young people. The Alliance was founded in 2019 in opposition to Stonewall’s stance on gender identity issues, specifically that of medically transitioning children, which the Alliance argues is a form of gay “conversion therapy.”

According to the organization, the recently-announced helpline effort aims to support persons aged 13-25, as well as their family and friends, by facilitating up to 60,000 calls per year.

In their announcement on Twitter, LGB Alliance state that the phone lines will be operated by a fully-trained staff of professionals.

LGB Alliance went on to state that there is currently no “dedicated national service of this type for LGB young people” and that they helpline will help fill a gap in existing provisions.

Speaking with Reduxx, Kate Barker, the Managing Director of LGB Alliance, said that the charity was “thrilled” to receive the funding.

“This grant was the culmination of months of work by a brilliant team of volunteers who were truly delighted by the news. We believe young lesbian, gay and bisexual people deserve to know that being same-sex attracted is natural,” Barker said.

“[LGB young people] should be able to speak to someone who accepts them just as they are – their bodies and who they are attracted to. We say, unequivocally, you’re amazing and being same-sex attracted is valid, positive and to be celebrated.”

While women’s rights advocates and LGB people expressed excitement at the news, trans activists immediately slammed the decision as ‘transphobic’ and ‘exclusionary’ as the focus would not be on transgender-identified people.

“This is harmful. LGB is nothing without the T. @LottoGoodCauses do us a good cause and support trans lives just as much as others.” User @domvlogs user said in response to the funding announcement.

“There is something deeply sinister about groups that aim to protect marginalized social groups but pointedly NOT trans people. Especially children. That is so despicable,” wrote another.

One Twitter user even went so far as to state that the helpline was “going to kill kids,” with the tweet receiving over 24,000 ‘likes’ at the time of this writing.

Multiple helpline services currently exist in the UK which support LGB, transgender, and “queer” people. One such example is Switchboard, which has been in operation since 1975. Specific helpline services exclusively for trans people are also available, such as Mindline Trans which “is an emotional and mental health support helpline for anyone identifying as transgender, non-binary, genderfluid.”

Despite similar services existing that specifically support those with issues relating to gender identity, trans activists have begun pushing back against the National Lottery Community Funds decision to grand LGB Alliance funding, and have launched a campaign urging people to file complaints in an effort to get the grant pulled.

One activist, Kieran James, posted a copy of his complaint on social media. The message read: “I beg you to reconsider this decision, taking into account the profound distress, anxiety and fear of the LGBTQ+ community that such a blatantly exclusionary project could be allowed to exist.”

Rob McDowall, chair of Welfare Scotland, also stated that he would be “raising concerns” with the National Lottery Community Fund over this decision.

Reacting to the backlash, Kate Barker says, “whilst the response from LGB people was overwhelmingly positive, we were disappointed by others who appear to be vehemently anti-choice.”

Barker points out that there are many existing specialized support services for people with specific gender identifications, but none exclusively for same-sex attracted youth.

“The view that lesbian, gay and bisexual young people should be denied the same opportunity to be helped smacks of homophobia.”

Barker’s sentiment was shared by many, some of whom took to the National lottery Community Fund’s Twitter replies to thank them for supporting the initiative.

“It’s 2022 and homophobes are giving LGB Alliance a hard time. They deserve the money to do what they do to help support [same sex attracted] people. Thank you for the support”, one user wrote.

This is not the first time trans activists have fought against a decision to award LGB Alliance grant funding.

In April, the London Community Foundation (LCF) awarded LGB Alliance a £9,400 grant to produce a film to make a film to celebrate the Jubilee, with a focus on the experiences of gay men. But due to backlash by trans activists following the announcement of the grant, LCF withdrew the funding.

Since LGB Alliance’s inception, trans activists have also frequently petitioned against their charity status, taking particular issue with their position that sexual orientation is based on biological sex rather than gender identity.

Last year, trans activist organization Mermaids, which promotes the medical transitioning of children, launched a formal complaint against the UK Charity Commission in an effort to appeal their decision to grant LGB Alliance charity status. Crowdfunding the effort, Mermaids has since raised over £73,000 to fund their legal campaign.

Mermaids CEO, Susie Green, is known for having taken her 16 year old son to Thailand for sex reassignment surgery due to its illegality in the United Kingdom. In 2017, Green gave a Ted Talk in which she noted that she and her husband penalized her son when he was a child for being ‘too feminine’ prior to him beginning to identify as a ‘girl.’

Mermaids, which has been described by some as a political lobby group, had once endorsed the services of controversial service GenderGP, an online gender clinic.

Dr. Michael Webberley of GenderGP was recently found guilty of recklessly prescribing puberty blockers and cross sex hormones to patients as young as 9. Amongst the ethical violations that were uncovered about his practice was a case wherein he had prescribed hormone replacement therapy to a 17-year-old girl with autism “when it was not clinically indicated, and without establishing whether the risks were lower than the risks to the patient’s mental and physical health.” The patient took her own life 3 months later.

Mermaids has since removed GenderGP from their website, but discussions about the service have continued to be found on Mermaids’ website forums since then.

Some forum members report GenderGP has less “invasive questions” compared to the gender clinic at Tavistock, which recently came under fire from whistleblowers concerned about the clinic performing ‘conversion therapy‘ on gay youth.

“Don’t Misgender Them”: Trans Activists Defend Ezra Miller’s Pronouns Amid Child Grooming Allegations

By
Lavy Shwan
-

Growing controversies surrounding Ezra Miller’s history of violent and predatory behavior are being sidelined as trans activists appear to be more concerned about ensuring members of the public don’t ‘misgender’ the Flash star. Miller, who is biologically male but identifies as non-binary, has stated he prefers the pronouns they/them/it and zir. 

Miller has been making headlines this week after a mother took to Twitter to state that her daughter had effectively been ‘brainwashed’ by Miller, and that she had not been able to contact her. Environmental activist Sara Jumping Eagle told her followers that her daughter, Tokata Iron Eyes, has not had a phone since January of this year, and that her family has been unable to locate her.

Jumping Eagle says her daughter and Miller met at Sioux Standing Rock territory when Iron Eyes was just 12 years old in 2016. Miller had been visiting the No Dakota Access Pipeline protests that had gained widespread notoriety at the time.

Miller, who was 23 at the time, began an inappropriate relationship with the young girl. Her parents claim he gave her LSD, alcohol, and other drugs to gain “control” over her. When Iron Eyes was 14, Miller flew her and a few other members of the Standing Rock Sioux out to London to visit the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them studio set.

During the trip, Jumping Eagle says Miller was only prevented from sleeping in the same bed as her daughter by a chaperone. Miller later offered to pay for Iron Eyes’ education at Bard University, which her family says created a sense of “indebtedness” to him. She later dropped out and left with Miller.

Early on, Miller had begun exhibiting what Iron Eyes’ parents call a pattern of “cult-like and psychologically manipulative, controlling behavior.” On June 7, a Standing Rock Sioux Tribal Court granted a protective order which would require Miller to stay away from Iron Eyes, but they have been unable to locate either one of them to serve the documents.

While Iron Eyes allegedly put out a statement to her Instagram explaining she was safe, her parents had already noted that Miller had control of her social media.

On Friday, The Los Angeles Times reported that they had obtained a copy of the court order, which noted that Miller “uses violence, intimidation, threat of violence, fear, paranoia, delusions, and drugs to hold sway over a young adolescent Tokata.” Multiple incidents of impropriety are listed.

In the same fashion as Miller, Iron Eyes, who is now 18, allegedly now identifies as non-binary and transgender as well, as goes by the name “Gibson.”

Despite the severity of the disturbing allegations mounting against Miller, some trans activists have been more focused on policing those not properly abiding by Miller’s non-binary identity.

On TikTok, anyone addressing Miller by masculine pronouns is swiftly corrected, while on Twitter, posts have wracked up thousands of ‘likes’ calling for Miller’s non-binary identity to be respected while discussing the allegations against him, and mocking those who want to focus on the crimes rather than his preferences.

“Ezra assaulting women doesn’t mean it’s okay to misgender them. You don’t get to dead name or misgender ppl just bc you don’t like them or do something bad. That’s transphobic. Fuck Ezra Miller. BUT STOP MISGENDERING THEM,” @AussieRavenclaw tweeted.

Some social media users even suggested Miller’s actions were on par in severity with misgendering.

“People will really claim to be an ally or claim to support non-cis people until that said person does something bad. Yeah, they (ezra) might be a horrible person, but we shouldn’t step down to their level and be a bad person too by misgendering them,” another user wrote on Twitter.

According to Sara Jumping Eagle, Miller has been using his identity to shield himself from criticism, calling those who express concern about her daughter “transphobic.”

Jumping Eagle says: “If anybody questions Ezra’s actions, Ezra says they’re being racist or transphobic, which is not the case in our case. It’s about not hurting people. Don’t take advantage of people.”

Miller’s behavior has been the subject of widespread controversy over the years, starting with a 2020 incident in Iceland in which video footage was released of Miller choking a young female fan and throwing her to the cement.

In March of this year, Miller was arrested after becoming hostile at a karaoke bar in Hawaii. During the incident, he aggressively pulled a microphone from a 23-year-old female and began shouting obscenities, and the police were subsequently called. In Police body cam footage, Miller was heard informing an Officer of his pronouns, and claiming Police would be committing a hate crime by misgendering him again.

Miller also became irate with the fact that a male police officer had been assigned to conduct the search of his person, to which he responded: “I’m transgender non-binary and I don’t want to be searched by a a man. I claim my fourth amendment rights!”

In his most gruesome assault, which took place in April of 2022, one month after the last incident, the 29-year-old was arrested for second-degree assault. Police reported that he was accused of throwing a chair at a 26-year-old woman, and leaving her with a half-inch gouge on her forehead. Miller was charged with disorderly conduct and only fined $500 for the attack.

According to her parents, Tonkata Iron Eyes was with Miller in Hawaii during these incidents. In less than one month on the Islands, Miller was the subject of 10 Police calls.

Miller is hardly the first violent male to use his gender identity as a shield for his inappropriate behavior.

Last year, Christian Weston Chandler, a long-standing internet icon, was arrested on charges of sexually assaulting his intellectually disabled mother. Like with Miller, Chandler’s pronouns were rapidly defended by trans activists on social media.

Offline, a pedophile in the United Kingdom was recently released into the community after a court decided prison would be too difficult for him due to his transgender status.

Dutch “Pro-Pedophilia” Activist Arrested in Mexico After Attempting to Purchase Child

A Dutch national who campaigned for “pedophile rights” has been detained in Mexico after allegedly attempting to arrange for the purchase of a child.

Nelson Maatman was arrested in Mexico City on June 5, after an anonymous tip was handed to the Mexican prosecutor’s office indicating that he intended to purchase an adolescent and sell child sexual exploitation material.

Upon arrest, police found Maatman in possession of 4 terabytes (4000GB) of child sexual abuse material across a number of external storage devices. Maatman also had photos of children in his clothing pocket, a weapon, and drugs.

After his arrest, Mexico City Attorney General Ernestina Godoy told press that Maatman had been identified as the leader of an international pedophile and child pornography network.

Maatman, 27, had fled the Netherlands in February while facing charges related to the possession of over 10,000 pieces of child sexual exploitation material found during an investigation at his home two years prior. He was released into the community pending trial under the condition that he not leave the country. Maatman was allegedly seeking political refugee status in Mexico.

Between 2014 and 2021, Maatman allegedly managed a website that pushed for the legalization of sex with children, claiming that they are capable of consenting to sexual relations.

In 2020, the same year that his home was raided, Maatman attempted to re-establish the banned pedophile association Vereniging MARTIJN, a pro-pedophile activist organization similar to NAMBLA which advocated for the normalization of pedophilic sexual abuse.

MARTIJN was banned and dissolved by the Supreme Court of the Netherlands in 2014 because its members promoted the sexual abuse of children. Two other former members, Marthijn Uittenbogaard and Norbert de Jonge, were sentenced in March to prison terms of four and six months for continuing the association. Uittenbogaard also founded The Party for Neighborly Love, Freedom, and Diversity (PNVD) in 2006, which advocates for legalizing child sexual abuse materials (CSAM) and lowering the age of consent to 12 years old.

Maatman protesting with a “child lovers” flag in 2021. The butterfly logo is constructed out of four hearts: a big blue for man, a big pink for woman, a small blue for boy, a small pink for girl. The butterfly logo is used by pedophile organizations all over the world.

For years, Maatman has attended Pride events in Amsterdam. In 2021, he was photographed carrying a rainbow flag that he had fashioned to add a baby pink and blue pro-pedophile symbol. As the founder of ‘Kinderbevrijdingsfront’ (Children’s Liberation Front) Maatman was spreading flyers which called for legalizing sexual intercourse with children.

In 2019, at another Amsterdam Pride event, Maatman was detained by police for promoting pedophilia. At the Pride walk, he was promoting “Pedo Pride” and handing out leaflets which read, “Fight for an inclusive pride! All sexual minorities should be welcome at pride. The community should be inclusive and give space to children, youth, and the people who love them, nepiophiles, pedophiles, hebephiles and ephebephiles (NPHE). Love knows no age and should be celebrated. It’s time to once again support instead of exclude (sic) one another. It’s been 25 years since NPHEs were officially part of the community. We need to be whole again. Support love!”

In February of 2020, Maatman gave a talk at the University of Amsterdam arguing in defense of pedophilia. The University of Amsterdam later issued an apology for inviting Maatman as a guest lecturer.

During his speech he spoke highly of professor Gert Hekma, a Dutch sociologist and former University of Amsterdam professor in the fields of gender and sexuality who has written extensively in support of pedophilia as a “sexual variation.”

“Dutch universities are one of the last places I can speak frank (sic),” said Maatman. “Until 1994 pedophiles were part of the International Lesbian and Gay Alliance which just so happened to be 25 years ago. Not only that, but up until 2001 pedophiles were a common partaker in Pride Events in the Netherlands, and not just here,” he stated during his presentation.

The International Lesbian and Gay Alliance is now known as the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, and Intersex Association, but has retained its acronym of ILGA. In 1994, the ILGA was expelled from its consultative status with a United Nations body for having ties to multiple pro-pedophila organizations including MARTIJN and the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA).

Reminiscing about the past movement to lower the age of consent while lecturing at the University of Amsterdam, Maatman spoke positively of how “political parties from left to right were talking in favor of children and youth rights over their sexuality, about lowering or abolishing the age of consent, child pornography and erotica was openly sold at every newsstand in the Netherlands.”

Maatman continued: “There were pedo advocacy groups out in the open, pedo outings and movie nights, the Dutch Association for Sexual Revorm (NVSH) even had a group of over a thousand children, mobilized in a group called kindervuistje (childfist), the fist being the sign of resistance, of revolution, of emancipation, fighting for their rights to possess over their own bodies,” Maatman said.

The Netherlands, the first country to initiate the medical practice of halting children’s puberty by means of drugs referred to as “puberty blockers” in 1996, is a global hub for child sexual abuse material (CSAM).

According to the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF)’s annual report published on April 26, 62% of all CSAM globally is hosted by European Union nations. Out of the 156,300 URLs which included CSAM hosted on servers in EU member states, 66% were from the Netherlands. The country also accounts for 41% of the global hosting.

Maatman isn’t the first “pedophile rights” activist to be detained on charges of participating in the sexual abuse of a child.

As previously reported by Reduxx in February, Ian Andrew Zearley was sentenced to 15 years in prison after being found in possession of child sexual abuse material.

The serial pedophile was arrested after law enforcement officials monitoring his internet access discovered Zearley had searched terms consistent with attempting to access child sexual abuse materials in breach of his release conditions.

According to the Department of Justice, Zearley had been searching for terms such as “real hardcore child porn” and “boys severely whipped and bleeding.” Zearley also authored two stories that described, in graphic detail, the rape and abuse of young boys.

Zearley was the President of the Pedophile Associates of America — which had been granted full IRS tax-exempt status in 2018, and was registered as an advocacy and educational entity. The organization’s status with the IRS wasn’t revoked until May of 2021, and it was likely due to Zearley already being in police custody and not having filed the proper forms to maintain the exemption on time.

Adult Retailer Selling “Amber Heard” Themed Toy Based on Sexual Assault Testimony

By
Shay Woulahan
-

An “adult fantasy toy” retailer is under fire after posting an advertisement for an “Amber Heard” themed dildo inspired by her sexual assault testimony.

On June 9, Twisted Fantasies, a Florida-based adult retailer, posted advertisements across their social media accounts for a new sex toy called “Amber’s Mark Liquor Bottle Dildo.” The item was shared on Twitter with a description inviting customers to “Reach a new Depp-th.”

The sex toy was made in direct copy of testimony Heard had given while on trial that her former husband, actor Johnny Depp, had sexually assaulted her with a liquor bottle during a trip to Australia in March 2015.

Almost immediately, the company was met with responses from outraged netizens uniformly expressing disgust at the product. At the time of this article’s publishing, the tweet has only 33 ‘likes’ but has wracked up over 250 replies and 392 primarily-negative quote tweets.

“THIS is why making a woman testify about sexual assault, live, in front of the whole world was a crime against humanity. Whether you believe Amber or not, many people have been raped with bottles. To make fun of woman’s story of being raped by a bottle is an insult to them all” one user wrote in the comment section.

“I hope this puts you out of business,” another replied to the post.

Some even stated that they had intended to purchase from the company but had cancelled their orders in response to the post.

On Instagram, the reactions were no different, as most found the item distasteful and disrespectful.

“Women get raped with bottles. Women get found murdered with bottles inside them. Wtf is wrong with you.” stated one user.

Twisted Fantasies is an independent sex toy shop registered in Florida. The company was incorporated in May 2021, and specializes in the sale of a number of bestiality-themed sex toys.

Addressing the rapid-fire backlash, Twisted Fantasies posted a statement on their Twitter account, attempting to defer responsibility to Amber Heard. The company apologized if any survivors of sexual assault found the product triggering, but stated they will still stand by it as a “tongue [in] cheek way to support Johnny Depp.”

In a follow up statement to the Daily Dot, the company stated they were in the process of changing the product’s name and removing all references to the court case.

“If the product triggers sensitivities for people that have gone through sexual violence and personally related to Amber’s claims we apologize tremendously,” they continued.

Speaking with Reduxx, Jaimi Shrive expressed that this incident is part of a wider trend of attitudes towards female victims of sexual abuse.

“We’ve seen many businesses capitalize on Amber Heard’s abuse, and I think this is the most symbolic of how society actually feel about male sexual violence against women,” Shrive says, “It is simultaneously sexualized, trivialized, and denied.” Shrive said.

Shrive is Head of Research & Development at VictimFocus, an organization which provides trauma-informed training with the aim of supporting victims of abuse, violence, and trauma across the globe.

“This kind of cognitive dissonance thrives in a patriarchal, capitalist world where sexual violence conviction rates remain at an all time low,” Shrive asserted, continuing that a 2010 study found that pornography depicted violence against women in 80% of videos. “In Amber Heard’s case, her disclosure [has been] ridiculed to the point a sex toy company released a dildo in the form of the weapon she was assaulted with.”

Shrive believes that the Depp-Heard trial “was not publicly broadcast by accident,” and has played a direct role in feeding into harmful views, myths, and attitudes about violence against women that are already widespread.

“Amber Heard has become a personification of this,” Shrive says, “One day we will look back not only on the injustice she has faced, but also on the abhorrent part society has played in furthering her abuse.”

Depp had sued Heard for $50 million over liable after Heard had written an op-ed in The Washington Post titled: “I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change.”

Heard was found guilty of defamation for this statement despite it not directly naming her ex-husband. During the trial, two other statements were found to have defamed Depp, neither of which named him: “Then two years ago, I became a public figure representing domestic abuse, and I felt the full force of our culture’s wrath for women who speak out,” and, “I had the rare vantage point of seeing, in real time, how institutions protect men accused of abuse.”

Heard won one counter claim against Depp, but Jurors awarded him $15 million in compensatory and punitive damages. Heard plans to appeal the verdict.

Depp had previously lost a similar defamation case against UK-based tabloid The Sun in 2020 after the outlet had labelled him a “wife beater.” The judge in the case had found that 12 out of the 14 incidents of domestic violence had occurred, meaning the “wife beater” claim by The Sun was not defamation.

“Taking all the evidence together, I accept that [Heard] was the victim of sustained and multiple assaults by Mr. Depp in Australia,” said the Judge at the time.

Depp had lost permission to appeal the verdict, with a judge refusing his application and stating that his appeal had “no real prospect of success.”

Heard’s former personal assistant, Kate James, has previously accused Heard of stealing her “rape survival story” in 2020 after Depp lost his libel case to The Sun. However, many have noted that the two sexual assault narratives differ greatly.

Reacting to the controversial post by Twisted Fantasies, Journalist Eve Barlow, a close friend of Heard’s, responded to the post saying “Rape is not sexy.”

Professor at the Stanford Law School, Michelle Dauber also condemned the post calling it “highly offensive.” Both Barlow and Dauber were outspoken in support of Heard during the defamation trial and received harassment as a result from Depp supporters. Barlow described herself as a victim of “online terrorism.”

Dauber posted on her twitter account that a supporter of Depp had created a fake account for the professor’s deceased daughter to terrorize her.

Dauber also said: “[I have received] dozens of harassing calls from men screaming obscenities because I criticized the conduct of the trial and the verdict against Amber Heard.”

Women Being ‘Punished’ For Complaining About Male Transfers: Inmate in California Women’s Prison

By
Anna Slatz
-

An inmate at the Central California Women’s Facility has come forward to reveal the disturbing ways in which they say female inmates are being ‘punished’ for expressing concerns about the trans-identified males flooding into the prison under SB-132.

“Under SB 132, these ‘trans-predators’ as I call them… they are just here to try and have sex with the women,” Sagal Sadiq wrote in a recent legal statement, “Even if it is true that they are at risk of violence in a men’s prison, this is just trading one victim set for another.”

Sadiq, a refugee from Somalia, is biologically female but identifies as a transgender man. But despite that, Sadiq has been vocal in opposing SB-132 — also known as the Transgender Respect, Agency, and Dignity Act.

The bill went into effect in January of 2021, and allowed male inmates to seek transfer to women’s prisons on the basis of self-declared gender identity. Under the law, male inmates do not have to be on hormones, have surgery, be diagnosed with gender dysphoria, or even have legal documents stating they have a transgender status in order to request transfer. Since the policy was implemented, over 300 male inmates have applied to be moved into California’s female prisons, and only a scant handful have been denied so far.

In May, Sadiq penned a sworn declaration attesting to the ways in which conditions have changed in the prison since the arrival of an ever-growing male inmate population. The declaration was included as just one of many provided to Women’s Liberation Front (WoLF) in support of their lawsuit agains the state of California on behalf of four female inmates who experienced civil rights infringements or physical violations by trans-identified male arrivals.

In the declaration, Sadiq outlined a disturbing incident in which an attempt to report a trans-identified male who had committed an act of sexual harassment against a female inmate was met with what Sadiq felt was penalization from the prison.

“I submitted a [formal complaint] to housing staff. The officer asked me why I was documenting it and I said this behavior was inappropriate and was I believed that it was going to escalate.” Sadiq described the trans-identified male involved in the incident as being over 6-feet tall, having a muscular build, and multiple facial tattoos.

“Sometime after this, this predator I reported decided to retaliate against me. We were in the kitchen and he ‘shoulder-checked’ me, which means when he walked by me he hit me with his shoulder super hard … in an effort to bully me and dissuade me from carrying on with the [grievance] I had filed,” Sadiq says.

Shortly after the incident; Sadiq, the victim of the harassment, and a third female inmate associated with the WoLF lawsuit were placed into administrative segregation — a form of solitary confinement.

“We were thoroughly frisked and put in a cage. I felt I was being kidnapped,” Sadiq says, “They claimed that it was for our protection, but if they really wanted to protect us they would address the predatory behavior of this man, not lock up the whistleblowers.”

After being placed in segregation, Sadiq learned staff had plans to move them to a new yard upon release. The move would have caused the inmates to be distanced from the lifestyles and surroundings they had become accustomed to.

In protest, Sadiq went on a 28-day-long hunger strike, and was ultimately hospitalized after experiencing the physical impacts of starvation.

“I wanted my life back – the same yard, my same job. I wanted an actual investigation into my reports,” Sadiq says, claiming some of the documents associated with the incident and report were destroyed. “I did not know how long they were going to let me starve, but in the end I ended up back on my yard with my job back. However, the women I was taken away with are not so lucky.”

In an interview with Reduxx on the declaration, Sadiq stated that the incident was one of the institution effectively punishing women for coming forward with reports of discomfort, harassment, or other concerns about the male transfers.

“When women complain [or] when they feel threatened … they are just moved. From bed to bed, room to room, and eventually yard to yard. And if you complain a little bit too long … you are put ‘in jail’ [solitary confinement].”

Sadiq says prison officials claimed the administrative segregation was for their “own safety,” but insists that is untrue and just an excuse to mask the true purpose of the confinement serving as a “warning” to other inmates against filing their own complaints.

“We insisted long and hard that we were not in danger – we [said to officials] that we were all fine, and told them that they were ripping us away from the community that we know and the meager little prison lives that we built,” Sadiq said, continuing: “Especially because we were involved in [the complaint], I believe this was done to dissuade others from going down that same road — say nothing, stay silent or this may or may not happen to you.”

Speaking to Reduxx, Sadiq noted that many women in the prison were the victims of sexual violence, and that the presence of intact males was not conducive to an environment of rehabilitation for them.

“For me, as an African refugee and civil war survivor – this triggers all my PTSD,” Sadiq says, “You know what happens to women in wars and situations of strife… I don’t want to see that mirrored here. I came to America to be safe. To see this happening, even on a minor level, to my sisters here is very triggering to me.”

According to women’s rights advocacy campaign Keep Prisons Single Sex USA, 33.8% of trans-identified male inmates in the state of California are registered sex offenders. While speaking with Reduxx, Sadiq slammed SB-132 as providing no proper assessment of the male inmates prior to being sent into the women’s estate, and called them ‘trans-predators.’

“Nobody thought too far into the process of how these ‘trans women’ are being vetted. You can’t just self-declare when you look like a 400-pound linebacker. These people clearly are not [transgender], they’re here for other reasons,” Sadiq says, “But because SB-132 is the law, everyone has a hands-off approach.”

While SB-132 does not specify anything with respect to the biological sex of inmates, no trans-identified females have yet been transferred to men’s institutions despite there being a handful of requests. Sadiq, who was born female but identifies as a man, firmly believes that sexist dynamics are at play in the stark difference in treatment of trans-identified males and females under the policy.

“SB-132 is to protect trans rights, but trans men don’t have these rights. The patriarchy is protecting itself. You’re a biological woman? Stay in your place. You have no right to demand anything. But if you’re a biological man, you can be whatever you want. It’s encouraged. If you want to [be moved] here to prey on these females — who cares?”

While communicating with Reduxx, Sadiq also expressed that “most staff and even some in administration” have concerns about SB-132, but were “afraid” of voicing their opinion in the event they became party to the lawsuit.

“All humans have inherent rights imbued within us, and the idea that a new law was created not to protect, but to elevate a class of individuals above an entire gender, serves only to marginalize women,” Sadiq says.

Sadiq’s sworn declaration on the conditions at CCWF was included as part of Women’s Liberation Front’s response to the state of California’s motion to dismiss their civil rights suit, filed on May 31.

According to WoLF, SB-132 is “dangerous and inhumane,” and mounting evidence is being gathered to support their claims that it is leaving female inmates in a vulnerable position. As part of their suit, four incarcerated women are involved as plaintiffs — Janine Chandler, Krystal Gonzales, Tomiekia Johnson, and Nadia Romero. Romero and Chandler are both opposing the law on the premise of religious objection, one of the women being a devout Muslim.

Johnson, a survivor of domestic violence who was imprisoned after killing her abuser, says she had been placed in a cell with a “vicious, dangerous biological male inmate.” But perhaps most shockingly, plaintiff Gonzales describes that she had been sexually assaulted by a male inmate who had been transferred to her facility after SB-132 was introduced.

Last month, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed a proposal to intervene in the suit in defense of SB-132, allegedly out of concern the state of California was not going to adequately represent trans inmate’s interests in the courts and would put the self-identification law at risk. Within their filing, the ACLU made claims such as that males and females have no biological, reproductive, or hormonal differences, and that a male inmate’s criminal history should not be taken into consideration when assessing them for transfer — even if they were violent sex offenders.

On May 31, WoLF provided Reduxx a declaration from a female inmate who witnessed the aftermath of what she said was a sexual assault perpetrated by a trans-identified male against a female inmate at CCWF.

In the declaration, incarcerated woman Mimi Le stated Jonathan Robertson — a trans-identified male once championed as a victim of transphobic policy by activist organizations — screamed at the female inmates: “I’ll rape you … there’s nothing you b*tches can do about it.”

Today, the state of California filed a motion to strike all of the declarations that had been submitted as part of WoLF’s suit, including that which was written by Sadiq. Other declarations the state is looking to dismiss included one by evolutionary biologist Colin Wright on biological differences between males and females, one by Criminologist Callie Burnt on sex differences in crime, and one by ‘trailblazing’ trans activist Michelle Norsworthy.

Reclusas son ‘castigadas’ por autoridades penitenciarias luego de denunciar a prisioneros transgénero con tendencias violentas

By
Anna Slatz
-

Una reclusa del Centro de Mujeres de California Central ha presentado un testimonio revelador sobre las inquietantes medidas punitivas dirigidas en contra de las privadas de libertad por expresar su rechazo a los hombres transidentificados que están inundando la prisión bajo la ley SB-132.

“Según la SB 132, estos ‘trans-depredadores’, como los llamo… solo están aquí para intentar tener sexo con las mujeres”, escribió Sadiq en una reciente declaración legal , “incluso si fuera cierto que corren peligro de ser violentados en una prisión para hombres, esto es simplemente intercambiar una víctima por otra”.

Sadiq, es una mujer biológica y refugiada Somalí que se identifica como hombre transgénero. Pero a pesar de su condición, se ha manifestado en contra de la SB-132, también conocida como Ley de Respeto, Agencia y Dignidad Transgénero.

El proyecto de ley entró en vigencia en enero del 2021 y permitió que los reclusos masculinos solicitaran el traslado a prisiones de mujeres sobre la base de la identidad de género autodeclarada. Según la ley, los reclusos varones no tienen que recibir hormonas, someterse a cirugías, ser diagnosticados con disforia de género ni incluso poseer documentos legales que indiquen que tienen un estado transgénero para poder solicitar la transferencia. Desde que se implementó esta política, más de 300 presos varones han solicitado el traslado a prisiones femeninas de California, la gran mayoría recibiendo el visto bueno.

Durante el mes mayo, Sadiq redactó una declaración jurada en donde detalló las formas en que  las condiciones en la prisión han desmejorado a partir de la llegada de la población masculina que va en aumento. Su declaración se incluyó junto a muchas otras que fueron proporcionadas al Frente de Liberación de la Mujer (WoLF) en apoyo a su demanda en contra del estado de California en nombre de cuatro reclusas que fueron víctimas de abuso de poder en detrimento de sus derechos civiles y agresiones sexuales por parte de hombres identificados como trans.

En la declaración, Sadiq describió un incidente inquietante en donde su intento de denuncia contra un acto de acoso sexual hacia una compañera de cárcel por parte de un hombre identificado como trans terminó con una penalización en su contra.

“Presenté una queja formal al personal de vivienda. El oficial me preguntó por qué la estaba introduciendo y le dije que este comportamiento era inapropiado y que creía que  iba a empeorar”. Sadiq describió al hombre trans identificado involucrado en el incidente como de estatura superior a los 6 pies de alto, de constitución musculosa y múltiples tatuajes faciales.

“Algún tiempo después de esto, ese depredador al que denuncié decidió tomar represalias en mi contra. Estábamos en la cocina y me ‘revisó el hombro’, lo que significa que cuando pasó al lado mío me golpeó con fuerza usando el hombro… en un esfuerzo por intimidarme y disuadirme de continuar con la queja que había presentado,” dijo Sadiq.

Poco tiempo después del incidente; Sadiq, la víctima de acoso, y una tercera reclusa asociada con la demanda de WoLF fueron puestas en segregación administrativa, una forma de confinamiento solitario.

“Nos revisaron minuciosamente y nos pusieron en una jaula. Sentí que me estaban secuestrando”, dijo Sadiq. “Nos aseguraban que era para nuestra protección, pero si realmente querían protegernos, tomarían medidas frente a este hombre y su comportamiento depredador envés de encerrar a las denunciantes”.

Después de ser colocada en segregación, Sadiq se enteró de que el personal tenía planes de trasladarlas a un nuevo patio al momento de ser liberadas. La medida provocaría que las reclusas se distanciaran del estilo de vida y el entorno al cual se habían acostumbrado.

En protesta, Sadiq inició una huelga de hambre de 28 días y finalmente fue hospitalizada después de soportar los efectos dañinos del hambre.

“Quería recuperar mi vida: el mismo jardín, el mismo trabajo. Quería que se hiciera una verdadera investigación sobre mis informes”, dijo Sadiq, alegando que algunos de los documentos asociados con el incidente y el informe fueron destruidos. “No sabía por cuánto tiempo me dejarían morir de hambre, pero al final terminé de regreso en mi patio y con mi trabajo. Sin embargo, las mujeres que estaban conmigo no gozaron de tanta suerte”.

En una entrevista para Reduxx , Sadiq declaró que el incidente fue una muestra efectiva de como la institución castiga a las mujeres por presentar informes de incomodidad, acoso u otras quejas relacionadas con los hombres transferidos.

“Cuando las mujeres se quejan o se sienten amenazadas… simplemente las reubican. De cama en cama, de habitación en habitación y, finalmente, de patio a patio. Y si te quejas demasiado… te llevan ‘a la cárcel’ [confinamiento solitario]”.

Sadiq agrega que los funcionarios de la prisión afirman que la segregación administrativa era para su “propia seguridad”, pero ella insiste que se trata de una falsedad y solo es una excusa para enmascarar el verdadero propósito del confinamiento como una “advertencia” para otras reclusas que quisieran presentar sus propias denuncias.

“Por largo tiempo Insistimos en que no nos encontrábamos en ningún peligro;  le aclaramos a los funcionarios que todas estábamos bien y que nos estaban arrancando de la única comunidad que conocíamos y de la pequeña y escasa vida de prisioneras que habíamos construido. dijo Sadiq, y agregó: “Especialmente porque estuvimos involucradas en la denuncia, creo que esto se hizo para disuadir a otras de seguir nuestro ejemplo: no digas nada, quédate en silencio o esto te podría suceder a ti, depende de lo que hagas”.

Compartiendo con Reduxx, Sadiq señaló que muchas mujeres en la prisión fueron víctimas de violencia sexual y que la presencia de hombres con sus partes intactas imposibilitaba que este fuera un entorno de rehabilitación para ellas.

“Para mí, como refugiada africana y sobreviviente de una guerra civil, esto desencadena todo mi trastorno de estrés postraumático”, afirmó Sadiq, “Ya sabes lo que les sucede a las mujeres en las guerras y situaciones de conflicto… No quiero que esto se repita aquí. Vine a Estados Unidos para estar a salvo. Ver que esto le esta sucediendo a mis hermanas , sin importar que sea a escala menor,  es muy angustiante para mí”.

Según la campaña de defensa de los derechos de la mujer Keep Prisons Single Sex USA, el 33,8 % de los reclusos varones identificados como transgénero en el estado de California son delincuentes sexuales registrados. Durante la conversación con Reduxx, Sadiq criticó la SB-132 por no proporcionar una evaluación adecuada de los reclusos masculinos antes de ser enviados a la sede femenina, y los llamó “trans-depredadores”.

“Nadie invirtió mucho tiempo pensando en el proceso de exanimación para estas ‘mujeres trans’. No puedes simplemente autodeclararte de un género cuando luces como una mole de 400 libras. Estas personas claramente no son transgénero, están aquí por otras razones”, afirmó Sadiq, “pero debido a que la SB-132 es ley, todos tienen un enfoque de no intervención”.

Si bien la SB-132 no especifica nada con respecto al sexo biológico de los reclusos, aún no se ha transferido a ninguna mujer identificada como trans a instituciones para hombres a pesar de que hubo algunas solicitudes. Sadiq, que nació mujer pero se identifica como hombre, cree firmemente que la dinámica sexista está presente en la marcada diferencia de trato entre hombres y mujeres identificados como trans a la hora de cumplir con los lineamientos de esta ley.

“La SB-132 esta para proteger los derechos trans, pero los hombres trans no tienen estos derechos. El patriarcado se está protegiendo. ¿Eres una mujer biológica? Quédate en tu lugar. No tienes derecho a exigir nada. Pero si eres un hombre biológico, puedes ser lo que quieras. Se te alienta. Si quieres se enviado aquí para aprovecharte de estas hembras, ¿A quién le importa?

Durante su entrevista con Reduxx, Sadiq también expresó que “la mayoría del personal e incluso algunos en la administración” tienen dudas sobre la SB-132, pero tenían “miedo” a expresar su opinión en caso de que se les incluyera en la demanda.

“Todos los humanos tenemos derechos inviolables y esenciales, y la idea de crear una nueva ley no para proteger, sino para elevar a una clase de individuos por encima de todo un género, solo sirve para marginar a las mujeres”, explicó Sadiq.

La declaración jurada de Sadiq que describe las condiciones en el CCWF se incluyó como parte de la respuesta del Frente de Liberación de la Mujer a la moción del estado de California para desestimar su demanda por derechos civiles, presentada el pasado 31 de mayo.

Según WoLF, la SB-132 es “peligrosa e inhumana”, y se está recopilando cada vez más evidencia para respaldar sus afirmaciones de que está dejando a las reclusas en una posición de vulnerabilidad. Como parte de su demanda, cuatro mujeres encarceladas están involucradas como demandantes: Janine Chandler, Krystal Gonzales, Tomiekia Johnson y Nadia Romero. Romero y Chandler se oponen a la ley bajo la premisa de la objeción religiosa, ya que una de las mujeres es musulmana practicante.

Johnson, una sobreviviente de violencia doméstica que fue encarcelada luego de matar a su abusador, dijo que la colocaron en una celda junto con un “recluso vicioso y peligroso”. Pero quizás lo más sorprendente es la demandante Gonzales que describe como terminó siendo agredida sexualmente por un recluso que fue trasladado a su instalación luego de que se comenzara a aplicar la SB-132.

El mes pasado, la Unión Estadounidense de Libertades Civiles (ACLU, por sus siglas en inglés) presentó una propuesta para intervenir en la demanda en defensa de la SB-132, supuestamente debido a su preocupación de que el estado de California no representaría adecuadamente los intereses de los reclusos trans en los tribunales y pondría a la Ley de autoidentificación en riesgo. Dentro de su presentación, la ACLU fijó posiciones como la de negar que los hombres y las mujeres tenían diferencias biológicas, reproductivas u hormonales entre sí, y que los antecedentes penales de un recluso masculino no debían ser tomados en cuenta a la hora de evaluarlos para una posible transferencia, incluso si se tratase de delincuentes sexuales violentos. .

El 31 de mayo, WoLF proporcionó a Reduxx una declaración de una reclusa que asegura haber sido testigo de las consecuencias de lo que describe como una agresión sexual a una prisionera del CCWF por parte un hombre identificado como trans.

En la declaración, Mimi una mujer bajo condena afirma que Jonathan Robertson, un hombre identificado como trans, otroramente catalogado como víctima de políticas transfóbicas por parte organizaciones activistas— le gritó a las reclusas: “Las violaré… no hay nada que ustedes puedan hacer al respecto, perras”.

Hoy, el estado de California presentó una moción para anular todas las declaraciones que se habían presentado como parte de la demanda de WoLF, incluida la que fue hecha por Sadiq. Otras declaraciones que el estado busca descartar incluyen una del biólogo evolutivo Colin Wright sobre las diferencias biológicas entre hombres y mujeres, una de la criminóloga Callie Burnt sobre las diferencias sexuales en el crimen y otra de el activista trans ‘pionero’ Michelle Norsworthy.

Académico “queer” busca que la pedofilia se enseñe en los salones de clase como manifestación natural de la sexualidad humana

By
Genevieve Gluck
-

Un profesor de Ética de la Universidad Metropolitana de Oslo Noruega ha llamado a legalizar la pornografía infantil generada por IA, afirmando que la pedofilia debe verse como una sexualidad innata y deber ser desestigmatizada.

Ole Martin Moen, un hombre gay de identidad “queer”, que  actualmente se desempeña como miembro del consejo asesor de la Organización de Pacientes para la Incongruencia de Género (PKI) de Noruega, un grupo político de presión social en pro de los derechos trans. Según su sitio web oficial, la misión del PKI es brindar el “tratamiento de afirmación de género” a toda persona “independientemente de factores como la identidad no binaria, la práctica sexual o tener otro diagnóstico”. Moen también se ha desempeñado como consejero académico en Civita, el grupo de expertos liberales más grande de Noruega, desde el 2015.

Recientemente, Moen condenó Christina Ellingsen, una feminista noruega que se enfrenta a una investigación policial y una posible sentencia de tres años de prisión por tuits en los que afirmó que los hombres no pueden ser lesbianas.

Moen le ha dado seguimiento a la cuenta de Twitter de Women’s Declaration International Norway, dejando afirmaciones falsas sobre la naturaleza de la investigación contra Ellingsen.

Pero aunque Moen cree que la posición que mantiene Ellingsen en cuanto la ideología transgénero la hace merecedora de un enjuiciamiento penal, su propio historial académico probablemente se consideraría mucho más perturbador para la persona promedio.

“La pedofilia es mala. Pero, ¿qué tan mala es? ¿Y de qué manera y por qué razones es mala? Moen escribió en un artículo del 2015 titulado “La ética de la pedofilia“, que luego se volvió a publicaren The Palgrave Handbook of Philosophy and Public Policy en el 2018, un libro de texto de amplia circulación universidades a nivel mundial.

“En este documento se argumenta que la pedofilia es mala solo porque, y solo en la medida en que causa daño a los niños, y que la pedofilia en sí misma, así como las expresiones y prácticas pedófilas que no causan daño a los niños, son moralmente buenas. ”, dice el resumen.

Moen detalla los argumentos a favor y en contra de las “relaciones sexuales adulto-niño” antes de llegar a la conclusión de que “el sexo adulto-niño no se puede clasificar como categóricamente  dañino”, pero puede resultar en “riesgos” de que los niños salgan lastimados. Ofrece una rápida desaprobación de las relaciones sexuales con penetración anal entre adultos y niños, pero continúa haciendo declaraciones en defensa de la pedofilia como orientación sexual natural, comparando el deseo de abusar sexualmente de los niños con el ser homosexual.

“Debemos apreciar que la atracción sexual hacia los niños es a menudo una parte profunda y fundamental de la personalidad de los pedófilos”, afirmó, al tiempo que sugiere que los pedófilos no deberían ser considerados responsables de sus actos, ya que “muchos pedófilos ignoran la realidad de que el sexo entre adultos y niños expone a los menores de edad a daño tanto físico como mental”.

Moen también argumenta que los pedófilos que no abusan sexualmente de niños deben ser “elogiados” por su “admirable fuerza de voluntad ”, y agrega que condenar a los pedófilos por su atracción debe considerarse “injusto”.

El académico afirma que “muchos de nosotros en algún momento fuimos pedófilos ” y presenta un extraño argumento de que la mayoría de las personas experimentaron atracción sexual hacia los niños cuando ellos mismos eran niños.

“Cuando tenías 11 años,  es probable que sintieras atracción sexual por los niños prepúberes… El estado mental de encontrar a los niños sexualmente atractivos es muy común”, afirma, y agrega: “La juventud, esa propiedad que los niños tienen en exceso, es una propiedad que, cuando se encuentra en menor medida , se considera sexualmente atractivo. Como tal, lo que diferencia a los pedófilos de las demás personas es que los prefieren más jóvenes que las personas promedio”.

Pero quizás lo más inquietante es que Moen ha pedido que se enseñe la pedofilia como tema en las escuelas, sugiriendo que “un cierto porcentaje” de estudiantes de secundaria tienen una identidad sexual pedófila natural.

“Para evitar futuros daños a niños, también sería bueno que comenzáramos a enseñar a los estudiantes de secundaria no solo qué hacer en caso de que fueran víctimas de abuso sexual, sino también qué hacer en caso de que ellos mismos sean pedófilos. Cierto porcentaje de estudiantes de secundaria son o se convertirán en pedófilos, y actualmente no reciben ningún consejo sobre cómo manejar su sexualidad”.

Moen también ha declarado que el material pornográfico infantil generado por computadora y otros “puntos de acceso para esta fantasía” pueden ser útiles para aquellos con tendencia sexual pedófila, insistiendo en que disfrutar de dicho material no resultaría en una mayor inclinación para abusar de un niño real. Pero la afirmación de Moen choca contra las evidencias recolectadas por expertos en protección infantil que han sonado la alarma frente a este tipo de argumentos.

En el 2018,Line Hegna, directora de comunicaciones de la sucursal noruega de Save the Children, explicó para el Sunday Guardian Live que la posesión de material relacionado con el abuso sexual infantil “contribuye a mantener un mercado que presupone el abuso de niños”.

Hegna estaba opinando sobre un escándalo nacional que terminó con un destacado experto en protección infantil sentenciado a prisión por posesión de una enorme cantidad de contenido que mostraba violaciones de niños. “La posesión de material abusivo puede funcionar para normalizar el abuso sexual de menores”, dijo Hegna.

De 2017 a 2021, Moen fue el investigador principal en el proyecto “¿Qué no se debe comprar y vender?“, financiado por el esquema SAMKUL del Consejo de Investigación de Noruega con una subvención gubernamental de unos 8,9 millones de NOK, o aproximadamente $1 millón de dólares estadounidenses. Una descripción del proyecto indica que fue diseñado para explorar las cuestiones filosóficas que rodean “la compra y venta de amistades, bebés y órganos humanos”.

La defensa de la pedofilia como una orientación sexual por parte de Moen es el último ejemplo de lo que parece ser un aumento progresivo de las voces abiertamente empáticas hacia los pedófilos a nivel académico, con múltiples incidentes reportados durante el último año.

El 5 de febrero, el profesor de la Universidad Estatal de Nueva York, Stephen Kershnar, fue asignado a tareas fuera del campus después de que resurgieran fragmentos de un podcast que grabó donde se mostraba defendiendo activamente el contacto sexual de adultos con menores de edad, incluidos niños de hasta 12 meses.

Incluso más recientemente, una investigación de un académico que criticaba las simpatías a favor de la pedofilia en las universidades fue eliminada del The British Journal of Sociology and History apenas 24 horas después de haberse publicado debido a la presión ejercida por un grupo activista “pro-pedófilo”.

En una entrevista para Reduxx, el Dr. Alaric Naudé de la Universidad de Suwon en Corea del Sur señaló que los esfuerzos por “desestigmatizar” la pedofilia para supuestamente “prevenir delitos” ponen en peligro a los niños y no estaban respaldados por estudios serios.

También señaló que afirmaciones como las que mantiene Moen que definen a la “atracción a menores” como una sexualidad natural, “en realidad les dificulta aun más a los pedófilos el poder desviar sus deseos por los niños”.

“Queer” Academic Suggests Pedophilia Be Taught in Schools as an Innate Sexuality

By
Genevieve Gluck
-

A professor of Ethics at Oslo Metropolitan University in Norway has called to legalize AI-generated child pornography, claiming that pedophilia should be seen as an innate sexuality that requires destigmatization.

Ole Martin Moen, a gay man who identifies as “queer,” currently serves as a member of the advisory board on Norway’s Patient Organization for Gender-Incongruence (PKI), a social and political lobby group for trans rights. According to their official website, PKI’s purpose is to provide access to “gender-affirming treatment” to the public “regardless of factors like non-binary identity, sexual practice or having other diagnosis.” Moen has also served as academic council at Civita, Norway’s largest liberal think tank, since 2015.

Recently, Moen targeted Christina Ellingsen, a Norwegian feminist who is facing a police investigation and a potential sentence of three years in prison for tweets in which she stated that men cannot be lesbians.

Moen has repeatedly harassed the Twitter account of Women’s Declaration International Norway, making false claims about the nature of the investigation against Ellingsen.

But while Moen believes Ellingsen’s ideas on transgenderism are worth criminal prosecution, his own academic history would likely be considered far more disturbing to the average person.

“Pedophilia is bad. But how bad is it? And in what ways, and for what reasons, is it bad?” Moen wrote in a 2015 paper titled “The Ethics of Pedophilia,” which was then republished in 2018 in The Palgrave Handbook of Philosophy and Public Policy, a textbook widely available at Universities across the globe.

“In this paper it is argued that pedophilia is bad only because, and only to the extent that, it causes harm to children, and that pedophilia itself, as well as pedophilic expressions and practices that do not cause harm to children, are morally alright [sic],” reads the abstract.

Moen details arguments for and against “adult-child sex” before ultimately coming to the conclusion that “adult-child sex is not categorically very harmful” but may result in “risks” of children being harmed. He offers a quick disapproval of penetrative adult-child sexual relations, but goes on to make statements that defend pedophilia as an innate sexual orientation, comparing the desire to sexually abuse children to homosexuality.

“We must appreciate that sexual attraction towards children is often a deep and integral part of pedophiles’ personalities,” he writes, while suggesting that pedophiles should not be held responsible for their actions as “many pedophiles are ignorant of the truth that adult-child sex exposes children to [harm].”

Moen also argues that pedophiles who do not sexually abuse children should be “praised” for their “admirable willpower,” and says that condemning pedophiles for their attraction should be considered “unjust.”

The academic claims that “many of us have been pedophiles at one point,” and presents a bizarre argument that most people experienced sexual attraction to children when they themselves were children.

“When you were 11, it is not unlikely that you were sexually attracted to prepubertal children… the mental state of finding children sexually attractive is very common,” he says, continuing: “Youngness, the property children have in excess, is a property that, when present to a lesser extent, is widely considered sexually attractive. As such, what makes pedophiles diverge from others is that they prefer more youngness than does the average person.”

But perhaps most disturbingly, Moen has called for information on pedophilia to be taught in schools, suggesting “a certain percentage” of high school students have an innate pedophilic sexual identity.

“To prevent harm to future children, we would also be well-advised to start teaching high school students not just what to do in case they are victims of sexual abuse, but also what to do in case they themselves are pedophiles. A certain percentage of high school students either are or will become pedophiles, and currently they are not given any advice on how to handle their sexuality.”

Moen has also stated that computer-generated child sexual exploitation material and other “fantasy outlets” may be useful for those with pedophilic sexual attraction, insisting viewing such material would not result in an increased propensity for abusing a real child. But Moen’s assertion flies in the face of evidence from child safeguarding experts who have been sounding the alarm on such lines of reasoning.

Line Hegna, the director of communications for the Norwegian branch of Save the Children, told the Sunday Guardian Live in 2018 that the possession of child sexual abuse materials “contributes to maintaining a market which presupposes abuse of children.”

Hegna was responding to a national scandal that saw a top child protection expert sentenced to prison for possession of an enormous quantity of content depicting the rape of children. “Possession of abusive material can work to normalize abuse of children,” Hegna said.

From 2017 to 2021, Moen was the Principal Investigator for the project “What should not be bought and sold?“, funded by the SAMKUL scheme of the Research Council of Norway with a government grant of NOK 8.9 million, or approximately $1 million. A description of the project indicates it was designed to explore the philosophical questions surrounding “the buying and selling of friendships, babies, [and] human organs.”

Moen’s defense of pedophilia as a sexual orientation is the latest in what appears to be a marked increase in openly sympathetic views towards pedophiles at the academic level, with multiple incidents being reported over the past year alone.

On February 5, State University of New York Professor Stephen Kershnar was placed on off-campus duties after clips from a podcast he’d done resurfaced showing him actively defending adult sexual contact with children, including those as young as 12 months old.

Even more recently, an academic critical of pro-pedophilia sympathies within Universities had his research scrubbed from The British Journal of Sociology and History just 24 hours after it was first published due to a complaint from a “pro-pedophile” activist group.

In an interview with Reduxx, Dr. Alaric Naudé of Suwon University in South Korea noted that pushes for “destigmatization” with the alleged intention of “preventing offending” were dangerous to children and unsupported by research.

He also noted that claims about “minor attraction” being an innate sexuality, like those advanced by Moen, “actually [make] it more difficult for pedophiles to direct their desires away from children.”

Senador detrás de ley que reduce las penas por abuso sexual infantil ahora aboga por la inclusión de travestis en currículo escolar

By
Shay Woulahan
-

Un político de California ha elevado una petición para que se impartan clases introductorias de travestismo como parte del currículo escolar de las escuelas K-12 de su estado.

El 7 de junio, Scott Wiener, miembro del Senado del Estado de California, causó un revuelo en las redes sociales luego de tuitear que “Drag Queen 101” (Introducción al Travestismo) debería ser parte del plan de estudios K-12 y que asistir al Drag Queen Story “cumpliría con todos los requisitos.”

El tweet de Weiner ha recibido un rechazo generalizado, acumulando más de 4500 comentarios principalmente negativos de internautas indignados. Casi de inmediato, los usuarios reflotaron el historial político de Weiner para persuadirlo a evitar nuevas controversias.

“¿No es usted el tipo que patrocinó un proyecto de ley que relajaba el registro compulsivo de delincuentes sexuales por sodomía y otros actos contra menores para terminar con la “discriminación de jóvenes LGBTQ en el registro de delincuentes sexuales? ” Deberías ir con cuidado con bromas como esta, señor. ” escribió el ex candidato al Congreso de Georgia, Barrington Marin II.

Otro usuario señaló que Weiner había sido responsable de un proyecto de ley que reducía las penas por contagio intencional de VIH/SIDA. Weiner es conocido por su uso abierto de la PrEP para evitar contraer el virus VIH/SIDA.

Wiener, que desde el 2016 ha ejercido funciones en la oficina del Senado de California, es conocido por usar su poder político para promover causas LGBT. Durante su carrera política, presentó un proyecto de ley que prohibía a San Francisco hacer negocios con empresas con sede en estados que no contaran con legislación antidiscriminación para personas lesbianas, gays, bisexuales y transgénero.

Wiener es responsable del polémico Proyecto de Ley 145 del Senado, que puso fin al registro obligatorio de delincuentes sexuales condenados por practicar sexo oral o anal con niños de 14 a 18 años.

Para ese entonces, Wiener argumentaba que al no contar con un registro automático para los delincuentes sexuales condenados por actos pedófilos de penetración de falo a vagina, la ley apuntaba injustamente a las personas LGBT. En lugar de buscar penas similares para todas las formas de abuso sexual infantil, el proyecto de ley eliminó por completo el registro obligatorio y, en cambio, permitió que la decisión final quedara en manos de los jueces. El proyecto de ley fue aprobado en septiembre del 2020.

Wiener recibió una reacción extremadamente negativa contra dicho proyecto de ley, y muchos afirmaron que estaba reduciendo las penas por abuso sexual infantil. Al abordar la reacción violenta, Weiner tuiteó: “Siempre lucharé por la juventud LGBTQ, incluso si eso significa recibir amenazas de muerte y calumnias. Esto no es nada nuevo. A través de la historia las personas LGBTQ han sido calumniadas como “pervertidas” y “pedófilas”. Y nuestras vidas siempre han estado amenazadas. No nos rendiremos.”

Wiener también autorizó el infame Proyecto de Ley del Senado 132 que permite que personas transgénero, no binarias e intersexuales encarceladas se registren y reciban alojamiento de acuerdo a su “identidad de género” autodeclarada . Esta legislación ha permitido que cientos de reclusos con biotipo masculino busquen ser transferidos a instituciones para mujeres, y decenas de ellos ya están siendo trasladados. Los reclusos varones no necesitan proporcionar ninguna evidencia de que son transgénero ni que tienen la intención de llevar a cabo la transición para recibir la habilitación y, hasta ahora, solo se han negado un puñado de casos.

El pasado mes, Reduxx informó que presuntamente una reclusa fue agredida sexualmente por un hombre transidentificado.

En noviembre del 2021, el Frente de Liberación de la Mujer inició una demanda en contra del estado de California, en representación de cuatro reclusas que afirmaron haber sido víctimas de hombres identificados como trans que fueron transferidos a sus instalaciones . Las demandantes nombradas en el caso son Janine Chandler, Krystal Gonzales, Tomiekia Johnson y Nadia Romero. Romero y Chandler se oponen a la ley bajo la premisa de la objeción religiosa, ya que una de las mujeres es musulmana practicante.

Johnson, una sobreviviente de violencia doméstica que fue encarcelada luego de asesinar a su maltratador, dijo que la colocaron en una celda con un “recluso masculino vicioso y peligroso”. Pero quizás lo más sorprendente es la demandante Gonzales que describe como había sido agredida sexualmente por un recluso que fue trasladado a su instalación luego de que la SB-132 entrara en vigor.

Para agregar a su creciente lista de decisiones políticas perturbadoras, Weiner también votó en contra de convertir la trata de personas en un delito violento en California. El proyecto de ley, SB-1042, habría ayudado a fortalecer la asistencia a millones de víctimas de tráfico sexual.

“Respeto totalmente el querer tener una penalización más severa, lo respeto totalmente, pero no creo que sea correcto presentar a las penas actuales como suaves”, dijo el Senador Wiener con respecto a por qué votó en contra del proyecto de ley.

La creciente popularidad de “Drag Queen Story Time” ha sido muy criticada, ya que muchos argumentan que las presentaciones de travestis son de naturaleza irrevocablemente sexual y no apropiados para una audiencia joven.

El 5 de junio en Dallas, Texas, un grupo de padres preocupados protestó en contra de un evento de travestis que se estaba desarrollando en un bar gay, han surgido videos donde se captan a niños pequeños entregando ‘propinas’ en efectivo a artistas travesti con poca ropa, mientras los observaban en primera fila frente a un letrero que decía “No se va a lamer solo”.
