Straight-talking interview featuring Kiwi terf reported for hurty words by a man who says he’s a woman.
No number of complaints turns a man into a woman, yet these men still think we can be harassed into believing it.
In my last blogpost, I wrote about how former longtime Kiwi journo Yvonne van Dongen got reported to Netsafe, New Zealand’s online safety organisation, by a man who says he’s a woman¹. Her rather modest appraisal of him - included in my blogpost below, but currently deleted from Yvonne’s – was light years removed from the kind of vitriol he himself is renowned for. Still, off he went in a huff to lay a Harmful Digital Communications complaint against Yvonne. Due to imminent travel plans, she chose to delete the ‘offensive’ section in her blogpost, so as not to have to deal with the nonsense whilst holidaying.
But, timid she is not.
When Maree Buscke’s producer from RCR - Reality Check Radio – got in touch with Yvonne to ask if she wanted to talk about the smack on the hand she got from Netsafe, she was up for it. And what an interview it was! Straight talking between two women who won’t have a bar of the pretence that men can be women if they just say they are.

One interesting snippet to listen out for, imo, is near the end, when Yvonne mentions Kiwi feminist, Renée Gerlich. Renée was one of the women who cottoned onto the trans agenda way before many of us even knew it was happening, and was savagely cancelled by her ‘group’ for voicing concerns about it. Upon reflection, though, Renée regarded that period to have ended up being her ticket out of ‘the Matrix’. The Matrix, in this instance, being the stringently imposed mind-bending group culture which tolerated no disagreement or criticism of the illusion of gender ideology.
It’s human nature to want to be a part of one or more groups, whether it’s a loose or close association, with ostracism being the typical punishment for non-conformity to them. However, being cast out of a group can sometimes result in a feeling of freedom, rather than loss. Yvonne could identify with Renée’s take on this, as indeed I’m sure many of us can.
¹Kiwi terf has official complaint made against her for hurty words.
This is the same "groupthink" mentality that Orwell wrote about so convincingly. Even in circumstances where language can be compelled, beliefs do not automatically follow.
If the trans lobby was subject to truth in advertising legislation, we wouldn't be talking about this, because their pathological mission would be banned, despite the obscene amount of money being funnelled into this cult: https://lucyleader.substack.com/p/truth-in-advertising
I was a tomboy who desperately wanted to be a boy in a sexist world. A child of the generation who were sent to the second world war. I did everything I could not to wear girls clothes when I was growing up to the despair of my poor mother and my indifferent father. My friends and playmates were boys because their toys were much more interesting and I fought and held my own just as well as they did. As it was I turned out gay but I didn't want to accept it as homophobia was as bad as the sexism then. As a young adult in the 70s I went to Sydney and encountered an ageing crossdressing University Professor (he was a close friend of the drag queens at Les Girls)who by influence and pressure turned a disturbed friend of mine who had a 6 year old daughter (as her father was not active in her life, I spent many years worrying about her as her mother was all she had) from a failed marriage into a transman (NZs first on hormones to my knowledge). He had the medical knowledge to do it. Then he and his friends turned their attention to me. Flattery was one of the common denominators. You are very good looking, you would make an incredibly handsome man. However I'm the kind of person who digs their toes in and resists when people try to put pressure on me to do what they want. My reaction was to return to NZ and become a young active feminist involved in both womens and gay rights movements. I finally accepted what I was and came out to my family. Feminism saved us all. I still remember the last luncheon a very upset Henry aka Harriet cooked for me at his place when he knew I was leaving. The ageing grandfather provided a desert which after one taste I knew was heavily laden with some kind of alcohol. I chose not to eat it. I later found out from my friend who transitioned that it had a lot of his homemade alcohol in it. This cult has been around a long time and is very insidious but now it has the money to spread its influence deep into our society. Parents beware. If your child doesn't have a strong secure personality they can be easy meat for these people.
