Girls walking alone at night aren't the problem.
Girls walking with headphones in aren't the problem.
Girls walking down dark streets aren't the problem.
Girls in revealing clothes aren't the problem.

Girls should not be the ones who have to change their behaviour.

#Eurovision I understand why Russia were banned this year.
But under the same logic, why are Israel allowed to join in?
What is the difference between Palestinian and Ukrainian people?

Imagine beefing over British Airways saying "Good evening everybody" instead of "Good evening ladies and gentlemen".

Absolute snowflake ❄️

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

I hope @British_Airways staff ignore this virtue-signalling nonsense. The eradication of gender specific language is a pathetic surrender to the woke brigade. Most people identify as men or women, where are OUR rights to be called what WE want to be called?

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

I honestly will never understand why people get so vexed about how other people identify.

If it's not harming anyone then just let people live how they want to live; it really doesn't affect your life at all.

His nickname was "The Rapist".
Independent Office for Police Conduct found out he had already been reported twice for flashing women and also for driving naked from the waist down, nothing was done.
But yeah, he is just one bad apple and no one could have predicted he'd do this.

The Sarah Everard narrative has completely changed. It’s not that she was just walking home, it’s that she was stopped and ‘arrested’ under false pretences by someone with the ‘power’ and full intention to harm her. How the hell are you supposed to protect yourself from that?!

[The Jenkins Project @JenkinsProject]

The death of Sabina Nessa has striking similarities to the death of Sarah Everard however there are undeniable differences in the media responses.

The lives of black and minority women will not disappear as a statistic.

Say her name. Remember her story.

@Moth74013415 @tv_type @watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @guardian Again completely irrelevant, there are many different chromosome expressions than just XX=female and XY=male.

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @tv_type @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @guardian So if being transgender was officially recognised as a developmental abnormality would you then accept that not all females have the "biological requirements" outlined in your definition?

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@tv_type @watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @guardian Small or large gametes? Gametes are sperm cells or ova. So like I said, some females are born infertile or without ovaries so don't produce ova.

So are they not female?

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian I'm doing no such thing. I'm saying a female is anyone who truly identifies as female.

You're the one saying to be female u must have ovaries, produce eggs and be able to bear children.

You then accept there are cases where this isn't true. But can't accept it for trans women.

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @AndyLloydSmith @Moth74013415 @numquamaeternam @beta_co_ @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian But this isn't the majority is it. Every community has people with extreme views, a few tweets from a couple people doesn't mean a whole community hold this view

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian But what it does mean is that there are women who do not meet your definition of female that you still consider female. Yet accepting trans women as female is not possible for you because they don't meet this definition.

That is hypocrisy

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @AndyLloydSmith @Moth74013415 @numquamaeternam @beta_co_ @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian Not at all. It is personal preference to not be attracted to penis. You can recognise a trans woman as a woman but still not want to date her due to you not being attracted to her anatomy.

Much like how you could not be attracted to people with big noses.

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian Like I said though, some women are born without ovaries. Still have a vagina and womb ect.

Are they not female?

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@Moth74013415 @watsonsnoodle @numquamaeternam @beta_co_ @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian As a lesbian myself I do support same sex attraction. Also as a lesbian I have never been forced to accept penis, nor have any lesbians I know...

What are your sources

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian Whoa hold on you can't just keep changing your definition. One minute you're saying the Oxford definition, now you're saying the presence of uterus and ovaries etc make you female.

Make up you're mind

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian Okay, so you're going on the definition that you have to be able to bear offspring and produce eggs and that makes you female for life.

So what about people who are born infertile? They not female?

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian Well going on that definition, women who have gone through menopause are not women anymore.

They cannot bear offspring or produce eggs.

So do you believe post-menopause women are not female?

[Beth Kerrigan @BethanyKerrigan]

@watsonsnoodle @beta_co_ @Moth74013415 @AndyLloydSmith @carolineb180 @L96074660 @tv_type @guardian A woman is an individual who identifies as female.

What's you're definition of "woman"?
