🎙️ Peaked Why Do So Many Trans Women Have a Humiliation Kink? Host: Róisín Michaux Guest: Sissy JoyceSubstack: 🎙️ Episode Overview In this episode, I speak with Sissy Joyce, a Belgian sissy fetishist, content creator and self-identified trans woman, about the uncomfortable and unspoken overlap between identifying as a woman and masochism. We talk openly about humiliation kinks, submission, pornography, sex self-ID laws, single-sex spaces, sports, prisons, and why so many women feel instinctively alarmed by the cultural direction of gender identity politics. This is...

🎙️ Peaked Reports of conversion therapy are "completely exaggerated" Host: Róisín Michaux Guest: Kurt Krickler Link (free version): https://peaked.substack.com/p/reports-of-conversion-therapy-are?r=1numbu Episode Overview Kurt Krickler is a lifelong gay rights advocate who worked with the lobbying organisation ILGA-Europe from its earliest days. He was an ILGA volunteer before they even added the L, never mind the T, the Q or the I (or the worryingly ambiguous “plus+”). He watched the organisation’s evolution from a group of scrappy...

You wait and you wait and you wait for some handsomely-subsidised professional EU woman’s rights organisation to invite gender critical women to the table for a discussion, and then a beats them to the chase. Oh well. I would have much preferred the “gender mainstreaming” people of the (€12 million in EU funding, at ) to pull on their big girl pants and address the most important women’s issue of the past few decades, but nah. Too busy putting together powerpoints on the meaning of “gender budgeting”. And what about the women’s rights committee in the European Parliament?...

Maryann’s 15-year-old daughter is currently deep in the grip of a delusion that she is a boy. She, along with some of her friends, has been like that for two years already, but Maryann, a no-nonsense mother from working-class Dublin, has made absolutely clear to her little girl that she was having none of it - no binders, no hormones, no fake names. She was the second Irish woman I had met who had a daughter in this situation (the other mother’s child desisted, thankfully) and I think her testimony is useful for others who are perhaps under the impression that the ROGD phenomenon is not...

There are many seriously insulting things about the transvestification of womanhood - one of my chief beefs is the way the acronym HRT, used to describe hormone replacement therapy for women going through the menopause, has been stolen and repurposed by men who use it for aesthetic enhancement (not that it works). First they hijacked the HRT name, then they ; the increased demand for synthetic female hormones has put intense strain on an already patchy supply. In the past few years, hormones intended for sweating, sleepless women have been rerouted to autogynephiles convinced that...

This doctor’s name gets shared in a private Facebook group for parents of “trans” kids because he’s allegedly incredibly cavalier about handing out hormones to prepubescent kids. I went to see him. Get full access to Peaked at

Oh well. I would have much preferred the “gender mainstreaming” people of the European Women’s Lobby (€12 million in EU funding, at most recent count) to pull on their big girl pants and address the most important women’s issue of the past few decades, but nah. Too busy putting together powerpoints on the meaning of “gender budgeting”.
And what about the women’s rights committee in the European Parliament? Women got a massive dopamine hit when the Spanish socialist party came out last year with a new “roadmap” that suggested they were ready to ditch queer theory in favour of the old-fashioned “women-are-real” political position (how far we’ve fallen). The document even mentioned protecting women’s sports categories.
Even better, a member of that party, Lina Galvez, was selected to lead the women’s committee in the EU parliament in Brussels. The fact that elected alongside her is swivel-eyed trans rights fanatic Irene Montero means that any pro-reality positions will likely be tempered.
But after years in the desert, it was still very cheering to see a left wing organisation of any type saying something sensible at the EU level. We can thank Spain’s formidable and long-standing (and loud) second-wave feminists for the pressure they applied on the Socialists. Well done, ladies.
Who is Faika El-Nagashi?
Faika is an Austrian member of the Green party who lost her seat in her national parliament in the most recent elections. She has been unpopular among her Green party colleagues ever since she started to terf out on main, starting when she gave an interview to a magazine where she laid out the problem with ceding women’s words and identities to men with a paraphilia called transvestic fetishism.
She is a constant target of the pro-gender activists in her home country. She was even banned from an annual lesbian conference that she helped build.
Faika is a difficult one for the identity-obsessed Left because she ticks all their favourite intersectional boxes: lesbian, “rainbow parent”, with a migrant background, lefty in all the ways that matter except this one…. She’s also been an activist for progressive causes her entire adult life, having even worked for the demonic ILGA-Europe (before they turned demonic). That means the usual smears of racism, anti-gender conformity etc. etc. simply roll off her (such an immature way to do politics — I can’t wait for this dumb era to be behind us).
Faika wants to bring criticism of transgender ideology to the European institutions. She’s coming to Brussels next week to talk about it, alongside Stella O’Malley of Genspect and Ashley Frawley, a fellow of the Hungarian think-tank MCC Brussels who are hosting the event.
Yeah yeah MCC are linked to the Hungarian government. The radfem WhatsApps are aglow with hand-wringing. But the women we elected to represent us have shunned us for years. It’s important to note that not all women in this big, hodge-podge, cobbled-together TERF movement are left wing (one of our biggest strengths, tbf) and most of us have had all our f***s depleted after years in the wilderness.
In short: I don’t care.
Many thanks to MCC Brussels and director Frank Furedi for hosting us and letting Faika and Stella get their voices out there. If you can help Faika get an audience with some of the women’s rights orgs and individuals who have chosen to remain silent on the most egregious affront to women and girls of our lifetimes, and who are finally ready to face the issue, please do get in touch.
Enjoy the interview, and please share widely if you can.
