Good. Please move on and stop lying.

You never actually responded to my position. You do not seem to understand a very simple argument. And, you keep replacing my argument with one I do not hold. I'm not here to waste my time with bad faith actors. My position has been stated. Engage with my actual position or move on. But stop lying in a context where your lies are obvious.

I did not define women by presence or lack of human organs. I did not define women by femininity. I did not argue for biblical or conservative gender roles. I did not argue that women should lose rights. I did not say trans people should be mistreated. Those are all your invention, and again, I should thank you for demonstrating the point of my thread so perfectly.

My position is simple: women are adult human females; sex is a material reality; atypical female development does not make someone male; and male people are not female people by identity.

That is not conservative or religious. It is materialist.

The ideological, anti-materialist claim is that an inner gender essence overrides the body, that words must be reorganized around that belief, and that everyone else must affirm what cannot be materially demonstrated. That is what gender essentialists have in common, whether they are religious conservatives on the right or ideologically indoctrinated "progressives" on the left.

You can disagree with me. But calling my feminist, atheist, and materialist argument “evangelical” because some conservatives opportunistically use the issue as a beat stick against the left who championed nonsense uncritically, is not an analysis of my argument. It is guilt by association and a lack of self-awareness on your part. The intellectual void created by a highly contested nonsense ideology backed by low quality evidence was an obvious target for the right seeing their opponents make stupid and divisive mistakes against their own party and principles.

If you want to know why president pussy-grabber was re-elected, despite a failure of a first term, take a look in the mirror and know the majority preferred a clown president over your ideological Shibboleths. That is the lesson you should have learned, bit instead you will continue to attack actual anti-authrotiarian, liberal feminists on the left for "reasons." I can only imagine it's because you like losing or are indoctrinated beyond reason.

I oppose conservative and religious control of women.

I also oppose redefining women out of sex-based rights.

Those are not contradictory positions.

Pretending they are is doing real harm to children, women and girls, lesbians and gay men, liberalism, and the left.

@soniasodha Many seem to have a vision of the “worthy, longstanding, neutered” trans woman who will fall foul of the law/guidance. The Hayley Cropper delusion.

[Angela @AngstAHD]

@soniasodha @akuareindorf Timely! I have just suggested same to @tonyvaughanMP

Nicola Sturgeon has updated her pronouns to him/not me

He was probably crapping himself that she’d notice the coffee machine.

Were there any dom postmasters?

@blackricheuro My fingers have been hovering over the “cancel direct debit” button all day.

I had hoped the party would move on from this ridiculous position between the SC ruling and the guidance.

But no, it’s still being mad.

[Richard Blackman 🔶 @blackricheuro]

I wish my party understood the judgement and the issue with the clarity that Akua Reindorf does.

@RedTory2016 @LightninLex We’ve come a long long way from “me too” haven’t we?

[Angela @AngstAHD]

@firstfusilier It all rests on the idea that no one can tell who is a woman or not.

Somehow, employers have just been making really ‘lucky’ guesses as to who to discriminate against up to now.

@jk_rowling @nyaraVT and practically everybody in the world can recognise them, especially if there's an opportunity to overpower, abuse or exploit them.

[Melanie @SchizoMellie]

And also bifurcating the experience of cis and trans women as though they exist in some ontological gulf that cannot be theoretically articulated in their mutual imbrication by patriarchal domination is just another method of separating trans women from womanhood
