Jail doctors who perform trans surgery on young people, says feminist activist

Inside the theatre, Ms Joyce, who authored the 2021 book Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality, and Ms Bindel were cheered by the audience.

Responding to an audience question about whether doctors who had “violated their Hippocratic Oath by carrying out these surgical procedures” should be struck off, Ms Joyce said: “These people are never going to face what they deserve. I’m not even hoping for that, it’s so impossible, in my opinion.

At the festival, which is sponsored by The Telegraph, Ms Joyce argued that teenage girls declaring themselves to be trans was a form of “social contagion”.

“If you are a teenage girl who doesn’t want to be a girl, that’s too boring and straightforward a thing to say. You want to be a special sort of person, you want out, you want to escape from whatever it is you’re trying to escape from,” she said.
