@tdgch Les politiques suisses ont-ils pensé que s’ils font des #coupures d’ #électricité, le contenu des congélateurs des particuliers sera entièrement 💯 détruit

Homicide is the 4th leading cause of death for girls and women 1 - 19 years old, and the 5th leading cause of death for women 20 - 44.

92% of cases involved women killed by a man they knew, 63% of whom were killed by husbands, ex-husbands or boyfriends.

Non seulement les femmes en politique ne sont pas incompétentes du fait de la parité (comme l'affirme les misogynes), mais elles sont forcées d'être deux fois plus brillantes & pugnaces, pour survivre en milieu hostile

Toute ressemblance avec des hommes politiques en France serait PUREMENT fortuite. Eux ils continuent voire sont promus.

Happy birthday to the indomitable @jk_rowling, who has shown courage & compassion in defending women's rights, & has given strength to many who may otherwise have felt afraid. Being on the side of women's humanity is always the right side of history. ♥️

Judging by the tsunami of supportive emails and letters I've received, if women learned anything from the response to my post it wasn't that they should sit down and shut up. Solidarity to the brave and fabulous @millihill (and I love your books, by the way!)

"This book is my attempt to set out the basic rationale for why females matter and why it’s okay for a feminist movement to focus exclusively on them." — @Docstockk speaks with Feminist Current about her new book, Material Girls https://t.co/RswyaXL0Dl

Lesbians are women whose sexual orientation is to other women. There have always been males who find that offensive. Those who jeer today may come from a different part of society from those who jeered yesterday,but to lesbians the jeering sounds the same.

Today, over 800 women will have died due to preventable pregnancy and birth complications, over 130 due to femicide. Millions of girls are missing globally, yet "progressive" men direct their outrage, not at sex-based oppression, but at the women who remind them it exists.

[Genevieve Gluck @WomenReadWomen]

Women are not ‘feminized’ men. Women do not exist to validate men's feelings.

Women are half the population, exist independently of men, and have every right to their own spaces, sports, and experiences.

Womanhood is a state of being, not an identity or feeling.

[LGB Alliance @AllianceLGB]

We recommend everyone read Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s essay and form their own opinion about it. At LGB Alliance we consider it a beautiful, nuanced essay, full of important insights & not at all “transphobic”, a word that in our view has been drained of significance by overuse.

Maya Forstater has won. I just had a press release from the CGD telling me how disappointed they are...

YES!!!

[LGB Alliance @AllianceLGB]

Congratulations to @mforstater! And thanks to @jk_rowling whose tweet in support of Maya made the case world famous. Our right to speak the truth hung in the balance.

"Cis" is about control. It separates women who won't obey from women who will.
It demands denial of selfhood & acquiescence to adopting a male perspective in all things, even our reality, & requires that before we speak of our lives, we should respect the male fantasy first.

No.

[Genevieve Gluck @WomenReadWomen]

I don't want a future where girls are raised, from childhood, to protect men's fantasies over their own reality, their lives. I don't want a world where girls are taught that they need a qualifier to speak about themselves. The word 'cis' is culturally imposed dissociation.

[Genevieve Gluck @WomenReadWomen]

Women — feminists — have defeated sex self-identification bills in England, Germany, Spain, and Japan.

Even as online commentators blame feminism for gender ideology, feminists are out there doing the work, at great personal cost, to fight back — and are starting to see gains.

[LGB Alliance @AllianceLGB]

Some groups exist to protect the rights of people with gender identity issues. That’s fine. We exist to protect the rights of LGB people. Sexual orientation and gender identity are completely different issues. Conflating them helps no one.

[Genevieve Gluck @WomenReadWomen]

Gender ideology is the religion of pornography. It celebrates the destruction of the natural female and worships the man-made, phallic 'woman'. And just like pornography, it coerces, it despises boundaries, and rationalizes violence against disobedient women.

[LGB Alliance @AllianceLGB]

So many happy lesbians, gay men and bisexuals are incredulous to hear people proclaiming that when children object to stereotypical clothes or toys they’re sending “gender messages”. No. They’re displaying their individuality - which deserves to be loved & nourished, not labeled.
