Female reproductive health charity sparks outrage for appointing trans woman as CEO: 'Absolute disaster'
Fox News ^ | 11/13/23 | Nikolas Lanum

A charity for a disease that can cause serious pain and pregnancy complications for females has appointed a transgender woman to be CEO.

Endometriosis South Coast (ESC) is described as an "inclusive" charity set up to support those diagnosed with endometriosis or adenomyosis. These two diseases occur when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus or into the uterine muscular wall itself.

ESC recently announced that Steph Richards, a transgender woman who uses she/her pronouns, was named the new CEO of the charity.

The announcement included a picture of Richards alongside a quote that read, "Isn't it ridiculous that I've got to my 40s before any medical professionals even mentioned endometriosis?!"

Richards describes herself as an intersectional feminist and human rights activist, previously working as Portsmouth's Labor Women's and LGBTQ Officer.

On the social media platform X, Richards wrote that she was "genuinely honored" to be named to the position.

"My mission will be to oversee the charity's everyday running, raise awareness of #endometriosis and #adenoyosis and raise the profile of ESC," Richards said.

The new CEO also revealed that she would advocate for health hubs, hopefully cutting wait times and reducing suffering for afflicted women.

"Feminism has many causes, far too many to put in one tweet - but for me, inequality in healthcare is a priority and I will do my best to help overcome this injustice," Richards added.

This is apparently a “tin pot charity” of around a half dozen volunteers that took in £8,398 and spent £6,380 for the reporting period ending April 2022. This activist is a journalist, not a medical professional. This is probably just a grifter attempting to build a reputation, research a book, or build a reputation so that some poor editor somewhere will be forced to edit the book.

It looks like they started in 2019 with funds of around £2,000.

I’ll bet they spent the money on promotional materials. It looks like they got some university ladies team to wear their warm up jerseys during endometriosis awareness month.

Re: Trans woman is CEO of female health charity

Why do I think this charity gets 100% of its donations from people or foundations who are 100% funded by tax payer dollars and government debt?

Just to be clear, this organization is in the United Kingdom.

Not saying this couldn’t happen here, but trans advocacy has progressed much further in the UK than in the US.

“Richards describes herself as an intersectional feminist and human rights activist, previously working as Portsmouth’s Labor Women’s and LGBTQ Officer.”

This person did not just manifest here. Someone put it in power. Who has that authority, yet is also that ignorant? Why does someone so obviously brain dead have the power to appoint such a person to such a position? These are not rhetorical questions. How does such vapid stupidity rise to the top like this?

Rule of thumb: When you see the word ‘transgender,’
substitute the phrase ‘hopelessly deranged phony’.

I knew a chick that had endometriosis. They have really bad periods or something.
It didn’t stop her from being a total slut.
There’s hope for everyone…

It’s from “Raising Arizona,” in a prison counseling session.

My theory is that trust fund babies tend to be surrounded by grifters, and though they may identify and expel some of the more obvious ones, the ones that claim to be oppressed tend to seem less threatening because they are more interested in seizing power over other people rather than seizing and making off with the family silver!

I'm 63, and my family physician has yet to mention "menstrual cramps" to me.

Maybe because I'm a man.

A pretend “female” as CEO of a true female centered charity. To be woke is to be mentally dead.

Thanks. Great film. I don’t recall that particular scene. It’s been many years since I’ve watched it. Maybe time for another viewing.
