(LifeSiteNews) — PinkNews bills itself as “the world’s largest and most influential LGBTQ+ led media brand,” and boasts that their allegedly “multi-award winning content leads the cultural zeitgeist, created through a uniquely inclusive lens.” In reality, the website is the most extreme propaganda arm of the LGBT movement, and its “journalists” serve as attack dogs for delusional and increasingly violent transgender activists.
As Douglas Murray – who frequently bashes the site – pointed out, using “‘PinkNews’ as a source leads to error built on error and malice built on malice.”
Indeed. Consider their leading “story” from September 23:
Medical experts have warned that “tens of thousands” of trans people in England could be missing out on vital cancer screenings. The World Cancer Congress in Geneva, which took place from 17 to 19 September, highlighted the importance of regular cervical and breast cancer screenings for the trans community. However, transgender men are not currently offered breast or cervical screenings. And trans women whose GP details do not align with their gender, are not offered breast screenings, despite the NHS acknowledging that the use of combined HRT (a drug with oestrogen and progesterone) can slightly increase the chances of breast cancer.

Now why, might you ask, are “transgender men” – that is, women – missing out on “regular cervical and breast cancer screenings”? Because they are identifying as men, and thus physicians understandably do not broach the subject.
You see, men don’t have cervixes, and thus are not generally offered cervical screenings, just as women are not checked for testicular cancer. In other words, there is no discrimination or “transphobia” or any other fictitious injustices going on here. When medical professionals believe they are serving a man, they do not think to inquire about their cervixes.
One oncologist suggested that to rectify this problem, trans-identifying patients have both their sex as well as their current identity plugged into the system, due to the fact that “we have busy lives” and “rely on these vital systems to remind us to access screenings” – but that “these screenings can be dysphoric for trans people.”
It is essential, apparently, that people not simply be asked to provide this information to their physicians: “Putting the burden on the individual to approach the GP compounds existing healthcare inequalities for trans patients.” Pink News added: “A recent study revealed that homophobia or transphobia can indirectly increase the chances of queer people developing cancer and worsen health outcomes for those who do.”
To sum up: according to trans activists and PinkNews (I repeat myself), trans-identifying people run the risk of cancer because doctors don’t realize they are trans-identifying, and this demands that we come up with any solution but asking trans-identifying people to provide this information, which would make them feel terrible. Not as terrible as severe illness, presumably, but bad enough that some trans activists think it’s worth running the risk.

Interestingly, for a website that bills itself as covering all things “LGBTQ+,” PinkNews seems to miss quite a bit. Like this story, for example: “Transgender Muslim ‘Wannabe Firefighter’ Requests Court Allow Him To Be Euthanized After Being Charged With Making Terroristic Threats.” Or perhaps this story, out of France: “Trans Activists Set Off Explosion in Attempt to Sabotage Conference Critical of Gender Ideology.”
Of course, that story would highlight a dangerous and growing trend – the radicalism and violence of trans activists, who are increasingly willing to use street-level violence to enforce their ideology, usually against women. Indeed, Andrew Doyle made this point in a September 23 column titled “Violence has become normalised within trans activism.” Doyle lays out the damning evidence, noting:
The violence we have seen over the past few years from trans activists is undeniable. Virtually all protests of this kind involve some kind of demonstration of aggression, whether that be placards bearing phrases such as “Kill JK Rowling” or “Punch TERFs” or actual instances of physical hostility. Such rhetoric is now so commonplace that two SNP politicians were photographed next to an activist holding a placard with the slogan “Decapitate TERFs,” along with an image of a guillotine, and they didn’t even notice.
If it bleeds, it leads, the old media slogan goes. For PinkNews, that’s only true if it isn’t trans activists drawing the blood – and it generally is.
