I am embarrassed to say when I first “Peaked” learning about trans I thought Stella O’Malley sounded knowledgeable and reasonable. Now I can barely bring myself to listen to her. She’s true Trans all the way and she doesn’t give a dam about women.
These people are insane, they all talk about puberty like its an illness, something bad ffs its a part of normal human fkn development not something to be avoided, what are they gonna suggest transing fkn fetuses next. Lots of people are uncomfortable with their bodies during puberty, its the first load of major changes anybody will ever experience in their lives unless you are unlucky enough to have a serious illness or life.body changing accident but people have been going through it since humans existed, jesus don;t animals also go through a sort of puberty or a coming of age type thing, all it is is you are growing up and your body maturing.
Also am pretty sure irish dancing was a very big thing when she was growing up in ireland, you have to be seriously fit to be able to do that and it has fuckall to do with gender stereotypes, some of those girls were huge too, so tall and very very athletically fit.
What little I’ve seen of S O’Malley previously - she failed to favorably impress me. But this? This woman is DANGEROUS. Ignorant of physiology, a history of dick/deviance pandering, she’s sexist, centering her own experience as “the” perspective…. Nah, this woman, IMO, is (nincompoop) controlled opposition. I’m seeing a trend, in almost all societally important and impactful positions, of idiots, dementia sufferers, ignorant individuals, and sheer incompetents having been, and continuing to be, installed. This is going to be quite the task to set course to sane, safe, and respectful (also strive again for truly ethical science and wellness/healing)
I wanted to be Kristy McNichol when I was a kid too. Now...I want Stella O'Malley to shut up. Said it before and I'll say it again, I don't believe what she says about wanting to be a boy in the teeniest, tiniest bit. Feel like she listened to Erin Brewer, who I absolutely believe about wanting to be a boy. Then, Stella had an aha moment and decided to spin a yarn. Not sure she even knows when she is lying. She shouldn't be a therapist.
"Adolescence is not all sexual desire & misery" .. but it is a feels of "everyone looks/judges me" & the belief that everyday is a lifetime & feels feel like forever. which of course is why vast majority of gender confused minors grow out of it; their brain matures.
She does seem awfully keen to dispense with the "mental illness" aspect of the trans phenomenon. I suppose that's what the Titans of that particular industry happen to be demanding currently, but still...
Speaking of puberty, I remember a song on the radio from that time. I like that you sometimes remind of the Bach, etc. from my music education, and sometimes the hard rock tunes that were playing on the radio waves in the mid-Eighties. 🎵 “Stop using sex as a weapon…” 🎶 Pat Benatar was singing that in 1985, and a cursory examination of the lyrics leaves me with the distinct impression that she was singing about/to a narcissist prick. “Love is more than a one way reflection…” Wish some of those garbage fires with graduate degrees (a.k.a. white collar trash) had helped me learn more social skills that year instead of grooming me for sexual abuse and putting me out for rape. All felonious, right here in California, and still no accountability for it, for they don’t like to disparage their colleagues after all. Her white collar scum kind is unfortunately more common than you seem to think, Karen! I heard it’s called rape culture, this system of sexual terrorism we inherited from Ancient Rome. I have no loyalty towards the Professional Managerial Class who exhibits none towards the general population. ☹️ Every damned generation their kind spawns sadistic, manipulative, twisted scandals like TruTrans and whatever.
Just my opinion, I think Stella is a malignant narcissist. The DARVO is off the charts. She IS dangerous because so many people still enable her. In her recent newsletter, Helen Joyce wrote that Stella is the victim of bullying....
tbf if O'Malley grew up in the 60's 70's in an Irish catholic family it was pretty much just expected that girls live in the family home then they get married have kids. Places kike the Magdelene laundries were a threat to women and girls in those days. A girl who was raped could have been shuffled off to places like that for being raped, geting pregnant out of wedlock, for being promiscuous or even too pretty. I dunno if that might have played a part in her life. She doesn't come across as very knowlegable or professional for her age and profession.
15:15 You would imagine that all of this would be instantly recognisable (just intuitively obvious really) to anyone who had grown up in Catholic Ireland, wouldn't you?
I don't think many women are narcissistic, certainly not in the same way men are / can be, but she seems like someone who makes everything about herself and certainly that seems to be her approach to this issue, and the thing is, "trans" is specifically designed to attract people like her, to attract the more narcissistic, self-focused (and immature, as narcissism is normal for children) kinds of people. So it all makes sense. No one can help to get rid of this scourge without taking the birdseye view like Jennifer Bilek and others do.
I am 69, so I can't remember my own puberty that well, since it was so long ago...but I don't remember EVER wanting to be a boy, or even anyone else other than myself. I don't remember my puberty being at all awful, either. Until I got fibroids in my mid to late forties, my periods were actually quite easy. I didn't like the mess of course, but cramps were quite rare, and my periods only lasted about 3 or 4 days.

Ugh, Stella is *so* performative.

She sounds too biased to give an opinion. The drive for the delusion.

She seems rather autistic.

I hate this woman and have a hard time listening to her, but hearing Karen’s detailed description of her adorable teenaged self makes up for it.
