A trans-identified male has been arrested in Mumbai after robbing and sexually assaulting a commuter in the women’s car of a commuter train. Prafulla Panchal, who uses the alias Sania, 23, brandished a fake gun while threatening to murder the victim.
As the train began to leave the station, Panchal approached the woman and sat directly across from her. He then began making “lewd gestures,” according to The Times of India. Using a fake gun to threaten her, he stole over Rs 4000 (approx. $50.00 USD) from the frightened woman, at which point he also began to grope her. The attack took place just minutes after the car’s uniformed guard left the car as his shift ended.
After Panchal exited the train, the victim, a flower seller from Bhiwandi, went to police and lodged a formal complaint.
“There were four to five other travelers in the compartment but none came to the victim’s rescue. The victim was courageous enough to shoot videos of Panchal discreetly. She gave us these videos later and they helped us to track him down,” said Senior Inspector Anil Kadam.
Authorities charged Panchal with extortion and molestation. Panchal had previously been booked for a similar offense that involved burglary at knifepoint.
The attack comes just weeks after a similar incident in a women’s-only train car, with a male boarding the car and attacking the sole female passenger once the guard had left his post.
Hijra are broadly defined as a ‘third gender‘ in India, but in recent years they have begun to be recognized under the ‘transgender’ umbrella. Hijra are primarily characterized by the development of their feminine identity through their sexual receptiveness to men as well as a castration ceremony that some, but not all, undertake. Hijra wear stereotypically feminine clothes, and often leave their families to join fictive kinship hierarchies with other Hijra, many of which are criminal gangs engaged in petty crime.
Some Hijra gangs engage in ‘blessing’ scams in which they extort money from the parents of newborn babies under threat of curses, kidnapping, or physical harm, leading them to sometimes be described as “mafia-like.”
Over the last few years, there have been multiple reported cases of Hijra criminal gangs abducting young boys, castrating them, and trafficking them in the sex trade.

Mental health professionals are gathering for a gender identity conference which will instruct them on how to assess, diagnose, and write letters for transgender clients in a single one-hour session so that they can access surgery and hormones. Some clinicians already offering the rapid services were even willing to provide the letters to minors.
The Do Something Identity(ies) Conference is set to be held on May 13 and features over a dozen speakers discussing a range of topics including decolonization, kink and polyamory, transphobia, neo-pronouns, and more.
Do Something Identity(ies) Conference Panels
The conference is being organized by Van Ethan Levy, whose biography states: “Van (they / elle) is a queer, non-binary, trans, socialized as female, nBPOC (not Black Person of Color), who is autistic and has dynamic disabilities amongst many more historically excluded identities.” Levy is a licensed family and clinical counsellor in the state of California, and has specializations including working with children and adolescents.
In addition to being a single-day event, the conference can also count towards over 7 credit hours utilized for the requirement of continuing education needed by mental health professionals. The conference is co-sponsored by R. Cassidy Seminars, which is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. It is also recognized in multiple states, including New York and California, for various mental health practitioner professional bodies and associations.
In the press release issued for the conference, Levy states that it is the “Inaugural Conference For Mental Health Professionals to Learn From Trans/Non Binary Folx [on] How to Provide Affirming Care.” One of the key components throughout the various panels and presentations it to ‘end gatekeeping,’ defined by Levy as “when someone in a position of power prevents someone from having access to something that others have.”
Levy has been a leading advocate for the end of ‘gatekeeping’ gender identity services. Since 2021, Levy has populated a spreadsheet of professionals willing to provide letters of approval for ‘gender affirming’ interventions within one hour.
Affiliated with the Do Something Identity(ies) Conference’s site, an entire page is dedicated to clinicians who can provide letters for hormones and surgery in a single session. Organized by state, Levy’s spreadsheet offers the names and contact information of over one hundred licensed medical and mental health service providers across the United States who have committed to what is effectively ‘no questions asked’ gender affirmation.
At least two California-based providers listed in the spreadsheet were willing to offer letters at no cost.
Perhaps most disturbingly, the gatekeeping-free guarantee seems to extend to minors.
One parent who wishes to remain anonymous provided Reduxx with a number of e-mail exchanges she had with providers from the spreadsheet conducted over the past year. Most of which were explicitly willing to help the parent’s 16-year-old child access the letters required for surgery and hormones in a single session with no pre-existing relationship or follow-ups needed.
Two of the e-mail exchanges provided to Reduxx.
Only one provider told the parent they did not work with minors, but was quick to provide a list of clinicians willing to write the letter that did. Another stated they were unsure if the assessment of a minor might take up to two sessions rather than just one.
In addition to the conference and spreadsheet, Levy also offers a $100 course on ‘affirming letter writing.’ The 50-minute workshop, open to licensed therapy professionals, provides instruction on how to “write a letter for clients so that the client can gain access to affirming care.”
Helena Kerschner says she was “disturbed” by the conference and its stated goals of limiting the questions and consultations provided to those seeking ‘gender affirming’ interventions.
Kerschner is a leading voice amongst detransitioners — a growing community of people who ceased or wish to reverse gender transitions. She also serves as an advisor for GenSpect, an international alliance of parent groups, professionals, and detransitioners seeking to challenge gender ideology and draw attention to its impact.
“My own experience is that I was given hormones without even a letter in less than an hour. But the thing that’s often said is ‘oh, that’s not happening,'” Kerschner says, continuing that the narrative that trans-identified people often have to overcome massive hurdles to get ‘gender affirming’ care stands in stark contrast of the evidence to the contrary. Kerschner notes that many detransitioners did not experience robust questioning prior to making medical decisions they later regretted.
“It’s a deceptive dynamic. You’ll have people who very well know that they’re quickly changing the standards so that people are met with even less and less [resistance] and given complete access to these interventions… those very same people will be saying that these things never happen.”
Kerschner says the incidents of providers offering free letters demonstrates the motive is often ideological, rather than monetary.
“Often times you have people, understandably, pointing to financial interest as one of the motivators of this phenomenon, I do think that is the case for many providers,” Kerschner says, continuing, “But I also think that something like [free letters] points to that this is also a belief system … You have providers who really and truly believe they are doing something important and good, to the point that they’re willing to do it for free.”
Kerschner dismisses Levy’s crusade against ‘gatekeeping’ as “ridiculous,” noting that even non-medical industries are regulated to protect consumers.
“If it’s going to be a medical treatment, it should be held to standards of ethical medicine.”

Westminster College in Utah will offer a course on “hard core pornography” in the 2022-2023 academic year, with students being expected to watch pornographic films as part of their studies.
“Hard core pornography is as American as apple pie and more popular than Sunday night football,” reads the private liberal arts college’s website. The course description also suggests that pornography can “challenge sexual and gender norms.”
The course is a 300-level Film Studies credit for undergraduates, and describes pornography as a “radical art form.” According to the course’s description, students will be expected to watch pornographic films and discuss the sexualization of race, class, and gender.
The course was cross-offered in the Gender Studies department.
While no professor is officially listed for the course on Westminster’s website, a spokesperson for the college told KSLTV that it “occasionally offers elective courses like this as an opportunity to analyze social issues.”
“Westminster College occasionally offers elective courses like this as an opportunity to analyze social issues. As part of this analysis, Westminster College and universities across the county often examine potentially offensive topics like pornography to further understand their pervasiveness and impact. Descriptions of these courses, while alarming to some readers, help students decide if they wish to engage in serious investigation of controversial subjects,” the spokesperson continued.
Across the United States and Canada, there has been increasing overlaps between academia and the sex industry in recent years.
In December of 2021, the University of Toronto came under fire after an associate professor posted materials from his ‘porn studies’ syllabus to Twitter.
Pretty proud of my undergraduate Porn Studies syllabus. I wish I could assign more! But there's only so much real estate. Here's what we're reading — a thread.
In the Twitter posts, Dr. Patrick Keilty outlined the weekly materials for the undergraduate course, which included such titles as “Cum Guzzling Anal Nurse Whore” by Lorelei Lee, where she argues that women in the sex trade are not exploited, and that the idea that poor women enter the trade out of economic need is a “gendered sexual myth.”
In another work from the syllabus, “Did Sissy Porn Make Me Trans” by trans-identified male Andrea Long Chu, the author argues that sissification porn is “a kind of centrifuge for distilling femaleness to its barest essentials – an open mouth, an expectant asshole, blank, blank eyes.”
Many porn studies scholars encourage the normalization of pornography, premising their argument on claims that it reduces incidents of sex crimes. But decades of research produced in a range of countries have long established a correlation between porn consumption and increased rates of sexual violence.
A 2020 study from Australia about intimate partner violence found pornography being used as “manual” to determine which types of abuse female victims would be subjected to. Many women also said they were forced to watch pornography to groom them or coerce them into abusive sex acts.
Health experts in the UK have similarly reported that children as young as 11 are learning about sex from pornography, with many believing intimate acts should be violent as a result of that exposure. A 2019 study commissioned by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), found that more than half (51%) of 11 to 13 years old reported that they had seen pornography at some point. Of those, nearly half (41%) — admitted pornography made them have less respect of the opposite sex.
Counseling expert and child safeguarding advocate Michael Sheath blamed pornography for an escalation in child sexual abuse. Sheath works extensively with pedophiles, and stated his belief that pornography exacerbates pedophilic interest in some men.
“There is a school of thought that these men we work with were already interested in children and went off to look for it – that they are born pedophiles. But that’s not my thoughts. I think a lot of the men we work with go down what I call a potentially escalating pathway.”
“Mainstream pornography sites are changing the thresholds of what is normal and I think it’s dangerous. Of course most people can watch extreme porn and walk away but I don’t see those people. What we are seeing on a daily basis is the conflation of easy access to hardcore and deviant pornography and an interest in child molestation. The link is unambiguous,” he added.
In 2020, a Financial Times report revealed that Cornell University — an Ivy League college and tax-exempt entity — had been investing in Pornhub, whose parent company MindGeek has been embroiled in controversy and legal disputes for monetizing the sex trafficking and rape of children.

The Florida Department of Health has issued a press release discouraging all forms of medical and social treatment for ‘gender dysphoria’ in children and adolescents.
The release comes as a response to a Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ‘fact sheet’ released in March titled “Gender Affirming Care and Young People.”
Today, the Florida Department of Health released guidance pushing back on @HHSGov unscientific shift in the treatment of gender dysphoria for children and adolescents.
In the newly-issued statement, the Florida Department of Health responds to the claims made in the HHS ‘fact-sheet,’ stating: “systematic reviews on hormonal treatment for young people show a trend of low-quality evidence, small sample sizes, and medium to high risk of bias.” It goes on to note that 80% of those seeking clinical care for ‘gender dysphoria’ will eventually lose their desire to transition, citing a 2015 study in the International Review of Psychiatry.
The Department’s new guidance is being issued due to “the lack of conclusive evidence, and the potential for long-term, irreversible effects,” and goes on to list a number of recommendations to health care providers.
Under the new guidance, children under 18 “should not be prescribed hormone therapy or puberty blockers,” and gender reassignment surgery “should not be a treatment option” for children or adolescents. The Department goes on to reference a 2021 study from the Journal of Infant, Child, and Adolescent Psychotherapy, quoting: “encouraging mastectomy, ovariectomy, uterine extirpation, penile disablement, tracheal shave, the prescription of hormones which are out of line with the genetic make-up of the child, or puberty blockers, are all clinical practices which run an unacceptably high risk of doing harm.”
While the Department is also discouraging ‘social gender transition’ — a non-medical option in which a youth ‘presents’ as their chosen gender identity, and is ‘affirmed’ by family, educators, and peers — it does note that children and adolescents struggling with issues of gender identity should be provided social support by peers and family, and should also seek counseling.
“The Department’s guidelines are consistent with the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services age requirement for surgical and non-surgical treatment,” the release concludes noting the state was following the reviews and guidance other nations have already taken, including Sweden and France.
In May 2021, the Karolinska Hospital in Sweden halted the issuance of puberty blockers to minors under the age of 16, citing a lack of scientific support and research into their potential health implications. But in November of that same year, a report revealed the Hospital had been aware of over one dozen cases of secondary effects in youth patients who had been given puberty blockers.
In one of the cases, an 11-year-old girl who had been prescribed puberty blockers because she identified as a boy developed severe osteoarthritis in her spine after 5 years on the medication. The girl’s height was also stunted, and X-Rays demonstrated a number of abnormalities in her skeleton. The girl continued to receive puberty blockers even after doctors noted the impact it was having on her physical health.
“It’s chemical castration. It can affect mental state in a way that [the patient] did not think and did not want.”
In March 2022, the National Academy of Medicine in France similarly urged “great medical caution” in the treatment of children and adolescents who claim to be transgender, citing an “epidemic-like” increase in demand for treatment which might be explained by other factors such as excessive social media engagement, an increased need for acceptance, or peer pressure.

A theatre company in the United Kingdom has cancelled their production of a sex-themed play for children, citing massive backlash and “violent and illegal threats.”
ThisEgg, a production company run by Josie Dale-Jones, was set to put on The Family Sex Show at the Royal Theatre in Bath, United Kingdom this coming May. The show was being run as part of the Theatre’s “incubator program,” a creative center within the facility intended to support projects aimed at young people.
On April 19, the production company’s official Twitter issued a thread detailing that it had cancelled the production, noting that it had received “violent and illegal threats.” ThisEgg will still be showing an exclusive, “invited audiences” only screening of the production.
The Family Sex Show: Cancelled before it opened – where do we go from here?
Twitter users weren’t impressed by the appeal for sympathy, with most simply posting screenshots of information from the show’s own FAQs.
The Family Sex Show’s website had boasted that it was a performance intended for parents and children about “exploring names and functions, boundaries, consent, pleasure, queerness, sex, gender and relationships,” and that it seeks to provide “intersectional, feminist, non-binary, anti-racist & sex-positive take on Relationships and Sex Education.”
In one of the first points the public took issue with, ThisEgg stated that the age suitability for the show was 5+, asserting that “sexual development and behavior in children starts from birth.”
The FAQs also detailed that there would be full-frontal nudity, and that at one point in the show’s production, the actors would strip in front of the child-filled audience.
“There is nakedness, yes. At one point in the show, everyone on stage takes their clothes off to the level they feel comfortable to. For some people, that’s taking off all of their clothes and being completely naked. For other people that means taking off bottoms but leaving underwear on, for others it’s not taking off anything at all. This moment last approximately five minutes.”
The show also stated it hopes to serve as an “alternative to porn” for youngsters, noting that they will not be going over anything that is already “widely taught” including biology, reproduction, STIs, or other science-based sex education.
Within the April 19 thread, ThisEgg provided a link to their “zine,” which included some of the content the Family Sex Show intended to distribute to the child audience members. But while their apparent hope was to quell some of the outrage, the link only led to even more.
Within the ‘zine,’ children are given instructions on how to make play-dough genitals, including a vulva and penis. It also encourages the children to draw penises and vaginas based on their instructions.
In the information section on the vulva, it states: “Remember: not all women have vulvas, and not all vulvas belong to women.” Uniquely, no such disclaimer appears in the section on the penis.
In another section on ‘Loving Yourself,’ the children are led to the topic of masturbation, and asked “Is there a body part which feels especially nice to the touch for you?” and “If some of your pleasures are sexual, are there any sexual practices you might like to try?”
Themes of masturbation were carried on in the lyrics to songs that would have been played during the production, including one on male genitals which stated “I sometimes have a fiddle with my penis and my balls … Oh, go on then and touch it … touch it where you like.”
Apparently, these are the words to one of the songs in the "Family Sex Show" which is recommended for five year-old children. pic.twitter.com/zXRm6POQcM

While the show is now cancelled, some have drawn parallels between it and a similar program which was featured on Danish television titled “Ultra Throws Away the Clothes.”
The award-winning, publicly funded program was centered around teaching a child audience about human bodies, sexuality, and body positivity. A prime feature of the program was children meeting with adults who would display their naked bodies in front of them, stripping during the show.
In 2021, Danish broadcaster DR quietly scrubbed one of the archived episodes of the show after discovering one of the men who had been brought on the program to strip in front of the child audience had been convicted of sexually abusing a child and possessing over 3,000 child sexual exploitation materials.

While Reddit communities intended to provide exclusive spaces for lesbians are routinely banned or censored under the pretense of “transphobia,” subreddits dedicated to the pornographic abuse of women are allowed to proudly declare “cis women only.”
Reddit has been notorious for deplatforming woman-centered and feminist communities. In 2019, r/GenderCritical was permanently banned from the site after Reddit overhauled its ‘hate speech’ terms of service. Subreddits such as r/BanFemaleHateSubs, a board dedicated to fighting misogyny on the platform were initially picked up in the sweep, as well as r/JoanneRowling, a J.K Rowling fan subreddit.
Other boards saw themselves either forced to undergo an overhaul or flat-out censored by the site. r/Detransition, a subreddit for individuals who have ended their gender transition to discuss their experiences, endured what some of the users described as a ‘coup,‘ with transgender Reddit top moderators taking over the subreddit and beginning to heavily suppress content.
But the double-standards amongst lesbian communities on Reddit is perhaps the most stark.
r/ActualLesbians is a subreddit intended to be for lesbian support and discussion that has taken a hard stance on “militant and exclusive” sexuality. The community’s description reads it is a “place for discussions for and by cis and trans lesbians, bisexual girls, chicks who like chicks, bi-curious folks, dykes, butches, femmes, girls who kiss girls, birls, bois, aces, LGBT allies, and anyone else interested!”

Some posts even veer into disturbing territory, with lesbians being encouraged to perform oral sex on male genitalia, or even have sexual intercourse with men.
In one post which went viral in December across social media, an r/ActualLesbians users expressed “feeling like a failure” after not being able to have penetrative sex with a male “transbian” partner. The subreddit’s moderators quickly deleted comments telling the user that she should not have been subjected to the experience, and that her partner should not have continued to try to penetrate her when she expressed physical discomfort.
Amongst the subreddit’s moderators, the majority participate heavily in pro-trans subreddits targeting “TERFs” or “exclusionary” lesbians, or are transgender themselves.
According to SubredditStats, r/ActualLesbian users most frequently overlap with those who also engage in r/MtF, a male-to-female community subreddit, r/AskTransgender, and several other transgender communities.
In stark contrast to r/ActualLesbians, which is firmly against “exclusionary” lesbian sexuality, r/Lesbians and r/DegradingHoles, pornographic subreddits primarily utilized by males, are explicitly exclusive and firmly state they only accepts posts with pornography featuring “cis women.”
The impact of this lack of exclusive spaces for female homosexuals on Reddit is obvious.
A quick scroll of r/ActualLesbians finds a recent post made by a woman who has become uncomfortable with the term lesbian because of its association with pornography. Instead of reassuring the user that there is nothing wrong with being a lesbian, users instead reply and recommend that she call herself “sapphic” or “queer,” and abandon the word “lesbian” altogether. One contributor jokingly suggests “vagitarian,” but is quickly policed and told that the term is exclusionary of lesbians that have penises.
The issue with a lack of female-exclusive spaces isn’t just indicated in the shaming and fetishization of female homosexuality, but clear safeguarding concerns have emerged — especially for young lesbians.
r/LesbianTeens is the youth equivalent of r/ActualLesbians, and advertises itself as an inclusive lesbian community. Its description declares it is a “safe space for LGBTQIA+ teens, focused mainly towards lesbians, but welcoming of all different sexualities and genders.” Like r/ActualLesbians, there is a massive overlap between the users of that community and those within transgender subreddits.
Scrolling the subreddit quickly reveals a significant number of the posts are directed towards breaking down lesbian sexual boundaries, and ‘educating’ young lesbians about making their sexuality inclusive of males.
The subreddit also trans identified males celebrating feminizing medical interventions such as exogenous oestrogen. A disturbing post goes is a male graphically celebrating that after his “bottom surgery” he no longer has genitals.
One post on r/LesbianTeens was supposedly written by a 14-year-old “MtF” looking for an online relationship. The user calls themselves a “lil’ trans girl” and appears to solicit advice from the teen lesbians on how to talk to a “fem presenting partner” through the internet. A quick glance at the user’s profile finds they are an “age regression” fetishist who role-plays as a minor in the context of a kink.
The erasure of lesbian and female-exclusive spaces on Reddit is hardly a one-off. It is, in fact, an example of what has been happening both online and offline since the widespread emergence of gender ideology, queer theory, and the inescapable omnipresence of increasingly abusive pornography.
In fact, it increasingly seems as though pornography is the only medium in which women and lesbians are allowed to be accurately defined — as perfectly demonstrated by the fact exclusivity is permitted only on those subreddits which seek to dehumanize, degrade, and sexualize them. In pornography, there is no wishy-washy abstract debate about what a woman is. The men jacking-off behind their computer screens know full well.
It goes without saying that this, in turn, has had an impact on women’s self-perception across the board. Where women exist only as products in male fantasy, the desire to escape such a burden becomes overwhelming. Like the female user who expressed discomfort with the term ‘lesbian’ because of its association with pornography, many women are being corralled into adopting abstract identities or abandoning association with their sex or sexuality altogether in search of relief.
For many women, but especially those young girls first coming into understanding themselves, it might seem easier to be a they/them than a she/her. Similarly, it may be more appealing to be an asexual demiromantic birl than a lesbian — especially when you wouldn’t be allowed to set your own sexual boundaries outside of pornography otherwise.
Reddit stands to be viewed as a microcosm of what is happening everywhere, but most importantly, it provides a stark lesson in why women must concede no ground in the fight for single-sex spaces.

It was recently revealed that there are 27 convicted male transfers being housed in New Jersey’s only correctional facility for women, Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women (EMCFW). Among them is a sadistic trans-identified male serving a 50-year sentence for the brutal murder of a sex trafficked immigrant woman.
Perry Cerf admitted to raping and killing Flor Andrade and was found driving her car and wearing her clothing. Cerf, who now is listed as a “female” and uses the name “Michelle Hel-Loki Angelina,” told of drinking the woman’s blood “so I could allow this person to live vicariously through myself.” He was transferred to EMCFW despite a long history of violence against women.
Additionally, two women inmates have become pregnant while in prison as a result of relations with Demitrius Minor, a man who began identifying as a woman called “Demi.”
Another man who has been transferred to EMCFW is Jimmy Brooks, a serial child sex abuser who is also listed as a “female” and whose record shows 10 counts of sexual assault against a victim under the age of 13.
Still another male transfer is Brandon Heaton, who is serving time for two counts of possession of child pornography. Once again, Heaton’s biological sex is listed as “female”, and like Brooks, Heaton has not even bothered to adopt a female name. Neither have two other transfers, Jeydon Lowe, and Zachery Hoger.
Another transfer is Neil Labranche, who is serving a 30-year sentence for the fatal beating of a man with cerebral palsy and is now going by Nikita May Selket. Leslie Wilson,born Glen, gunned down two police officers in pursuit of a “bloody revolution” and is serving 30 years to life.
The policy allowing men to falsify their sex and be transferred into EMCFW was implemented in June 2021 following a settlement with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The ACLU of New Jersey sued the New Jersey Department of Corrections on behalf of a man who went by the pseudonym Sonia Doe in court documents. Doe, having been abused in a men’s correctional facility, won the right to be placed in EMCFW, effectively designating women as human shields for male violence.
Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women has a decades-long history of male staff beating and sexually abusing women inmates. A report released by the Department of Justice in April 2020 detailed shocking instances of violence by staff against women inmates in what was described as a “pattern” of abuse.
The DOJ report stated that the corrections department “fails to keep prisoners at Edna Mahan safe from sexual abuse by staff,” and Edna Mahan suffers from a ‘culture of acceptance’ of sexual abuse, which enabled abuse to persist “despite years of notice and efforts towards change at the state level.”
Abuses against women continued for decades and over 70 reports were lodged of staff-on-prisoner violations. For example, a 1999 lawsuit filed by two women suing the then-state corrections commissioner, superintendent and a corrections officer cited 10 incidents and stated that the Edna Mahan administration was aware of such occurrences since 1990.
The DoJ found that “Edna Mahan have been aware that their women prisoners face a substantial risk of serious harm from sexual abuse, and they have failed to remedy this constitutional violation.”
The abuse has been so severe that a man who self-declared a female gender identity was last year transferred out of EMCFW. Raequan “Rae” Rollins was one of several inmates assaulted by guards during a routine “cell extraction” conducted to search for contraband in January 2021.
The officers wore riot gear, carried pepper spray canisters and shields, and moved in formations from cell to cell. Inmates told local media they believed it was a coordinated attack.
Desiree Dasilva was struck in the face by corrections officers, breaking her orbital bone.
One woman, Desiree Dasilva, was hospitalized with a broken orbital bone. Another woman described how she was punched in the head 28 times while pressed face-first against the wall. Inmate Ajila Nelsonsaid a group of officers beat and punched her, stripped off her clothes, and one male officer grabbed her breast and put his “fingers into my vagina.”
Yet mainstream media outlets reported how “prison guards kicked and punched a transgender woman” while the history of male violence against women at Edna Mahan was often mentioned as ancillary to Rollins’ narrative.
Rollins, a man who declared a female identity, was transferred out of a violent prison system after one incident while women were systematically abused and ignored for decades. Rollins filed a lawsuit in March and swift action was taken. He was moved out of EMCFW and temporarily held in a men’s prison before being transferred to SCI Muncy, a women’s facility in Pennsylvania.
In response to the attack on Rollins, 31 guards were suspended within the month, including the prison’s top administrator, 22 correctional officers and nine supervisors, and a formal investigation was opened. NJ Spotlight News reported on reforms, including body cameras for prison staff, an overhaul of policies, and employee training sessions.
In women’s prisons across the United States, male prison staff rape and violate female inmates, whether through calculated strip searches or by targeting vulnerable women for pimping. According to a fact sheet from The Prison Policy Initiative, some 70% of guards in women’s federal facilities are male. Court records show correctional officials have “subjected female inmates to rape, other sexual assault, sexual extortion, and groping during body searches,” the non-profit asserts.
“Male correctional officials watch women undressing, in the shower or the toilet. Male correctional officials retaliate, often brutally, against female inmates who complain about sexual assault and harassment,” it added.
Moreover, a majority of women incarcerated in US jails and prisons are themselves survivors of sexual or physical trauma, or both. According to a 2016 report from the Vera Institute of Justice, 86% of incarcerated women have a history of abuse; 77% have a history of intimate partner violence; this, in turn, contributes to high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder, leading women’s rights advocates to describe this phenomenon as a “sexual abuse-to-prison pipeline.”
The focus of the conversation has shifted entirely, from the coordinated attacks on incarcerated women by men to the victimhood of men who claim a female identity. On their own authority alone, men are able to propel themselves to the category of the most marginalized, while women are saddled with providing endless data to support claims of systemic abuse at the hands of men.
In a particularly cruel twist, Edna Mahan appears to have silenced a discussion of male violence by adding more men to the mix, rather than addressing the conditions that placed women at risk. Yet this is not quite so surprising, given that the rotten core of gender ideology is a series of misogynist reversals.
In the gender identity philosophy, men are the most oppressed women, and women are not only privileged, but can become the oppressors of men — especially if they dare to center their own concerns or refuse to entertain men’s fantasies. Furthermore, many of the founding fathers of gender identity ideology were sexologists who championed male entitlement and argued that deviant and predatory male sexual behavior was unfairly maligned.
Those who are critical of gender identity ideology frequently lament that predators are taking advantage of a system otherwise designed to protect a vulnerable community.
But such a view is naive: the system is working exactly as it was intended. Gender identity erases male violence against women while simultaneously obfuscating the language necessary to address it. In its activism, the movement eradicates safeguarding boundaries and slanders as bigoted any who advocate measures to protect women and children from men.
The first violation of the gender identity con is that it supplants women’s reality with a male-directed subjectivism. This is not a knock-on effect, but rather a main tenet that has been present all along.

Written by trans-identified male Gretchen Felker-Martin, Manhunt follows the story of two trans-identified males attempting to navigate a post-apocalyptic wasteland in which anyone with high levels of testosterone turns into a zombie. The characters, having run out of synthetic estrogen, take to eating the testicles of the undead males in order to get their supply and to stave off the plague. Along the way, they hunt down women who are depicted as “TERF soldiers.”
The militant leader, or “Queen TERF,” is described with a reference to Michigan Womyn’s Music Festival. MichFest was a women-only event that was targeted by a trans activist group. Two regular attendees, a lesbian couple and their adopted son, were killed in a triple homicide, and a trans-identified male named Dana Rivers is currently awaiting trial in a California women’s prison for their murder.
In his tweet, Felker-Martin alludes to the death of JK Rowling, which is treated as a point of entertainment for the trans characters. The “TERFs” are referred to as “the Knights of JK Rowling,” with the women participating in the brutalization and even sexual abuse of trans-identified males. There is a reference to the death of the Harry Potter author in allegory, with a “TERF” weapon called the Galbraith being violently destroyed.
The novel features egregious sexual themes, including an obvious fantasy by Felker-Martin in which the trans-identified males are made sex slaves called “daddies” for the “cis women.”
In one of the first chapters, one of the transgender protagonists gets an erection while attempting to kill one of the “TERFs.” The same character has repeated fantasies throughout the novel at imagining “TERFs” dressed in leather and acting as female dominatrixes.
Towards the end of the novel, Felker-Martin pens a particularly grotesque scene in which a Black woman is killed by having her womb removed while still conscious. The woman is verbally abused during the procedure.
The blatant violence, misogyny, and racism didn’t sit well even with pro-LGBT readers, with one who gave the book a 1-star review on GoodReads writing: “Was it really necessary to show a Black woman’s womb being removed by an amateur surgeon while she’s being called a c*nt and humiliated in front of her former comrades as she bleeds out and dies in utter degradation?”
Other reviews similarly took aim at the seemingly senseless violence towards women portrayed, with another stating: “Y’all want to worship this book because the main characters are trans but ignore the terrible writing, disgusting demonization of women, grotesque depictions of characters eating organs from zombified people’s bodies, and horrifying misogyny evident in just the first chapters available to preview.”
In a January interview with The Big Thrill, Felker-Martin clarifies his views on the feminists he refers to as “TERFs,” saying, “Essentially, if women are all the proverbial crabs in a bucket, TERFs are the ones making sure nobody gets out. They’re sick, evil, vicious people torturing other human beings for no real reason at all, and I wanted to splash that right across the page.”
In the acknowledgements, Felker-Martin credits trans-identified male author Torrey Peters as an inspiration. Peters’ novella Infect Your Friends and Loved Ones follows a similar premise as Manhunt: a trans-identified male creates a virus that prevents the body’s natural synthesis of hormones. Additionally, Peters has written extensively about “sissy porn,” a genre of pornography that involves men ostensibly being feminized against their will, with the loss of status and humiliation being a central source of arousal.
While Amazon has recently begun pulling “gender critical” books from its virtual store, citing violations of its appropriate content policy, it has continued to allow violent books such as Felker-Martin’s, as well as other highly disturbing works which border on written child sexual exploitation material.
Searches for transgender fiction turn up dozens of self-published ‘sissy’ erotic stories involving children. A common theme amongst them is the forced feminization of young boys, a subject also found in Manhunt, in which some male children are made to wear dresses in an effort to survive.

A male sex offender with a history of possessing “extreme pornographic images” of children has been jailed once again after being found utilizing a fake identity to seek out indecent content featuring young girls.
Dewi Rowlands, 64 of Wales, has been sentenced to 14 months in jail after being convicted of breaching an existing sexual harm prevention order from a previous sex offense.
According to Wales Online, Rowlands had first been convicted in 2017 of possessing disturbing child sexual abuse materials, and was banned from using any social networking apps without first notifying police for 10 years. Despite the conviction, Rowlands was not jailed and instead was handed a two-year suspended sentence, meaning he was allowed to walk free so long as he abided by certain conditions.
But Rowlands apparently had returned to viewing websites banned by his order as early as 2020, and police seized devices from his home in 2021 which demonstrated he’d not only been accessing various applications without notifying the police, but had been using fake identities to do so.
One such identity was that of a 56-year-old lesbian woman named Carol Jones, which Rowlands used the persona of on image-sharing websites. Rowlands actively sought out other sex offenders to discuss his perversions with using these identities, having conversations in which he sexually fantasized about young girls and bestiality.
Rowlands, a father of two, had also been accessing erotic stories websites, on which he looked for material featuring underage girls.
While being arrested, Rowlands denied he had any sexual interest in children. He also admitted to having “six or seven” different e-mail accounts police were unaware of.
During the trial this week, Rowland’s defense attempted to argue against a penal punishment, with Rowland’s attorney suggesting a “longer, community-based sentence.” The presiding judge, however, disagreed, and stated that he felt Rowland’s prospects for rehabilitation were “not realistic.”
Rowlands was handed a 14-month jail sentence, with the judge stating: “Your distorted mindset still persists and you regard yourself as a passive bystander in this when others discuss child sex abuse. You clearly are there for perverted sexual gratification … There’s some remorse here but the probation service seem to be of the view that this is only so you avoid jail. That won’t work I’m afraid.”
Rowland’s electronic devices have been ordered to be destroyed, and an extended sexual harm prevention order has been imposed.

A sadistic male convict who admitted to killing a prostituted woman to satisfy a “blood fetish” now identifies as transgender and has been transferred to Edna Mahan Women’s Correctional Facility.
Perry Cerf was arrested for the brutal rape and murder of 47-year-old Ecuadorian immigrant Flor Andrade in 2002. Cerf, who now goes by “Michelle Hel-loki Angelina,” was found wearing his victim’s clothes and utilizing her identification with his photo superimposed over hers.
He had been stopped for speeding while driving her car in Demearst, New Jersey, and further investigation by police led them to the body of Andrade, whose naked and bound body had been dumped in a nearby ravine.
Cerf was charged with murder, felony murder, robbery, aggravated sexual assault, possessing a knife, providing false information to police, and various motor vehicle offenses.
While awaiting trial, Cerf penned a letter to The New York Daily News confessing to the crime and boasted about drinking the woman’s blood.
“The truth about my case?” he wrote. “Yeah, I killed her. I punched and kicked her to death, crushing her skull in the process. One of the kicks landed in such a way that it broke her neck and all of a sudden her head was on backward.”
His letter continued: “Since I have a most unusual taste for blood, I drank and licked and lapped up my fill … Let it be known: I am Lucifer’s Maiden servant, sent to earth born of sin, to bring suffering and pain, darkness and evil.”
Cerf had paid Andrade to perform oral sex on him at the time of the killing. He claimed to have been high on cocaine and “just got carried away.” He wrapped her body in a tarp and told a friend what he’d done, hoping the friend would help him remove fingers, teeth and eyes from the corpse in an effort to make identification more difficult.
Cerf, who was 19 at the time of the murder, had just been released from Bergen County Juvenile Detention where he was being held for an unspecified sexual offense.
The state Parole Board would later admit to mishandling his case. Rather than being transferred to an adult facility, Cerf was released without being assigned a parole officer or requirements to adhere to a supervision plan. Possible requirements of supervision would have included a curfew and psychiatric counseling. Within 17 days of his release, he murdered Andrade.
As reported by The Record of Hakensack, Cerf boasted of the brutality he had inflicted on Andrade, saying: “I broke her trachea, and made her swallow her tongue. Blood then comes out of the mouth. I used my knuckles to break her trachea.”
Cerf said he drank her blood “so I could allow this person to live vicariously through myself.”
Throughout his adolescence, he was described by psychologists, educators and social workers as “uncontrollable.” Cerf had allegedly been diagnosed with mental health conditions by the time he was 8 years old.
During his childhood, Cerf would batter his adoptive mother, Mary, and at one point threatened to kill her. As a youth he spent time in state custody for a variety of crimes, including sexual assault and violation of probation. He also admitted to lying to counselors about having been sexually abused as a child “to get attention.”
In April 1997, Cerf was placed in St. Peter’s Village, a specialized residential treatment program in Denville, New Jersey. He was expelled from the facility after two months due to “sexual acting out” and “assaultive behavior,” according to the probation report.
During his trial for the 2002 murder of Andrade, prosecutors initially offered Cerf a 40-year sentence if he pleaded guilty to rape and murder. However, Cerf told authorities he didn’t want to enter prison on a sex-related charge and accepted a 50-year sentence to avoid a rape conviction.
“Going to prison on a sex charge would be a safety concern for me,” Cerf said at the time.
A 2003 report from local outlet The Record depicts a photo of Cerf smiling for reporters and claims he “appeared to enjoy his time” in front of the Bergen County Superior Court Judge.
While incarcerated at New Jersey State Prison, Cerf assaulted other inmates and at one point was placed in solitary confinement for 23 hours each day. He had initially been placed in the mental health ward but was moved because of “aberrant behavior” against others.
In 2005, he told his prison psychiatrist, Dr. Marina Moshkovich, that he wanted to murder the Associate Administrator Michelle Ricci by breaking her neck, hitting her in the head, beating her up, and choking her.
He had also grabbed his psychiatrist by the hair and attempted to beat her. He was served with a disciplinary report for threatening another person and for assault, and for fifteen other offenses which were ultimately either dismissed or for which he was found not guilty.
During this same year, Cerf began to identify as a woman.
According to the website of the New Jersey state Department of Corrections, Cerf is now listed as “female” in official documents and has been transferred to New Jersey’s only correctional facility for women, Edna Mahan.
The date of his transfer is not specified, though it may have occurred some time during the past year. In June 2021, New Jersey adopted a policy allowing for male convicts to be housed in the female prison estate following a settlement with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
On April 13, 2022, the New Jersey Department of Corrections confirmed that two female inmates at Edna Mahan had become pregnant after sexual encounters with trans-identified male inmates housed there.
