Irish Singer Róisín Murphy Apologizes After Backlash Over Her Criticism Of Puberty Blockers

Irish singer-songwriter Róisín Murphy has issued an apology to a woke mob who have been hounding her over a Facebook comment where she expressed her opposition to puberty blockers for children.

Murphy formally the frontwoman of Moloko, angered a huge proportion of her fanbase, many whom are part of the LGBTQ+ community, when she described “little mixed-up kids” using puberty blockers as vulnerable and in need of protection while dubbing the treatment “absolutely desolate”.

In the ‘offending’ post, which was shared across social media without context of what she was replying to, Murphy wrote, “Please don’t call me a TERF, please don’t keep using that word against women, I beg you! But puberty blockers ARE FUCKED, absolutely desolate, big Pharma laughing all the way to the bank.”



Breitbart reports: TERF means “trans-exclusionary radical feminist,” a term used by radical leftists to denigrate women who do not want dysphoric men invading spaces set apart for the female sex.

On Tuesday, Murphy backed down and apologized to the virtual woke mob for her mundane comment in a lengthy statement, writing, “I have been thrown into a very public discourse in an arena that I’m uncomfortable in and deeply unsuitable for.”

“I cannot apologize enough for being the reason for this eruption of damaging and potentially dangerous social media fire and brimstone,” she continued.

“To witness the ramifications of my actions and the divisions it has caused is heartbreaking,” she added.

“I’ve had a personal Facebook account for years,” Murphy explained. “The morning I made these comments I was scrolling and I brought up a specific issue that was only broadly related to the original post. It was something that had been on my mind. I knew my friends were informed about the topic. I should’ve known too that I was stepping out of line.”

Murphy went on to say that she has spent her “whole life celebrating diversity and different views.”“But I never patronize or cynically aim my music directly at the pockets of any demographic,” she continued. “The music I make is the core of everything I do and it’s ever-evolving, freewheeling, and unpredictable.”“For those of you who are leaving me, or have already left, I understand, I really do, but please know I have loved every one of you. I have always been so proud of my audience and understood the privilege of performing for you,” Murphy added.

The “Overpowered” singer continued, adding, “I am sorry my comments have been directly hurtful to many of you. You must have felt a huge shock, blindsided by this so abruptly. I understand fixed views are not helpful but I really hope people can understand my concern was out of love for all of us.”

“I will now completely bow out of this conversation within the public domain,” she added. “I’m not in the slightest bit interested in turning it into ANY kind of ‘campaign,’ because campaigning is not what I do.”

It appears that her apologies were too little or too late as it was reported a week later (on August 30) that the English independent record label Ninja Tune were ending Róisín Murphy’s promotion in light of her ‘transphobic comments.’

  1. Do the majority of people even know basic things. Neurological differences between a boy or girl till puberty are, cultural their brains are capable of the same things. We just treat boys girls differently and make behaviour changes. The wish to switch genders is from neurological point ridiculous before puberty as the brain is the same. So it’s a cultural wish to change, maybe the equality between man and woman in working and payment should be more equally so that the wish for gender switch evaporises over time. If you are unhappy as a men or women just go to your equal patriarchal or matriarchal society to profit from your genders instead of changing nature. It’s just depopulation agendas.

    • I don’t agree If you’ve ever 8bserved babies if any species of mammals it’s obvious that females are more feminine than males It’s emotional .And that’s where trans identity comes from feelings .

      • There is no brain difference in babies omg it’s culture how we treat a boy or girl there is no neurological differences till puberty. There is enough brain scans. Just think is there a difference in animals till puberty set’s in. A male or female dog or cat till hormones start behave the same. We treat boys girls differently and we, let them behave differently. But neurologically it’s nonsense till puberty. There are many studies, but it’s difficult to comprehend new things. It just means that a boy or girl can be equally high or low capable of tasks in the mind. But cultural differences are learned, so they change behaviour over time, and after puberty it’s natural to have hormonal changes in behaviour. But before puberty there should not be a big neurological difference. There is smart and stupid children on both sides.

  2. Theres no point trying to compete with globalist based ideologies u less you’ve got trillions to spend on your propagandas You won’t win However I do believe Congress did just deny the right for surgeons to perform sex change surgeries on minors .But it’s just the first round They won’t stop even if it takes them 50 years they will persist , that’s how they are .They basically work on 500 year plans as anyone whosexever studied sociology at college will tell you .

        • I was many many times was a make a wish by age eight said would`nt make it to 14.Than at eight 1/2 gutted and stabbed with a bowie knife and I was told I would`nt live a half year.People whom tell me KIA get dealed with from HIGHER UPP`s as I`am not nobody they back me up when needed BECAUSE OF the TRILLIONs in patent rights that I allow them to control,thAT BUYS ME time and backup SOMETIMES! DOC&DOD nameless

    • And I was nodding, nearly napping when suddenly I recalled Indian lecturer in uni talking about their strategies being 500 year plans for total transformations ,aided by 50.year plans for legislative changes and 5 year plans for like set s changes and if course that’s 555 year plans and that’s why Blackrocks offices are always at number 555
