I just listened to this yesterday and it was awesome! I really hope he’ll get interviewed in the U.S. too, especially with a wide-reaching guy like Rogan. James Dreyfus is so compelling and hard-hitting, and his no-f*cks-to-give attitude was very inspiring too. Everyone who’s LGB should listen to this, but really everyone in general should too.

Great video. I appreciate him bringing attention to these issues.

Yes, it's conversion therapy, it's called transing away the gay, there's been numerous examples, numerous videos of mothers, especially in America, saying, "There's no way I'm going to have a gay son, my husband won't have that, so-- you know, he played with a girl, so we made this decision and he said yes"-- well of course he said yes, he's four fucking years old...

...And this is a big move to take, to put these kids on what chemically castrated Alan Turing-- which, and it does do irreversible damage; and your brain isn't fully formed til you're 25. So of course you've got this confusion, because nobody really wants a f***** son, and nobody really wants a lesbian daughter anymore... This is what's astonishing to me, is that homophobia's back...

When people ask you, "What are your pronouns?" This is not a question. This is a test. Because if you don't answer: "Oh, um, he him," immediately, and you say to them "Oh you can just call me James"-- "oh. Oh." That person will go to someone else: "He's a transphobe." It's a test.

They go on to talk about Monty Python's Life of Brian. A breath of fresh air.
