She also faced being struck off…Legal proceedings hung over her for almost two years.”

Although I applaud @ForWomenScot (always) and their latest win, we must not forget that three women had to go to court to STOP a government putting male offenders - including rapists and child abusers - in the same prisons as women.
In 2026. In a supposedly civilised society.

@soniasodha @Aletheia_70 It's funny how some people are allowed to worry about who they share a space with and others are just meant to get over it

[Jo Bartosch @jo_bartosch]

In Jan I wrote about Trans Bash Back after they leaked the FSU's donor list. I quoted from their direct action manual, which advises supporters “ensure your target can be hit repeatedly until they desist from their activities”, adding: “All of our targets have blood on their hands. We refuse to let them wash it off in peace.” Why have they not been arrested? https://t.co/8a6gxPCDk3

‘The most obvious challenge is this whole gender, sex debate..We will get through that’

From @EDP24 - interview with Parkrun founder

‘My hope and wish is that as we navigate this, we don’t do ourselves any damage, that we protect what is really, really important to us, which is inclusivity, that we don’t alienate any part of the community’

‘I think the people trying to protect women’s sport have a right to do that… but we have a right to protect participation and inclusivity’

@sharrond62

Hard to see ’common ground’ - either men push women down the tables and hold their records, or they don’t

Great story EDP

‘This whole debate’ - what a dismissive phrase

@JournalismSEEN @EDP24 The Female category exists to promote participation & inclusivity!

The idea that the Female category is somehow in conflict with these principles is a massive LIE

The scale of blatant, sneering disrespect for W&G evident here & across society is hard to come to terms with tbh

[Women's Rights Network - WRN @WomensRightsNet]

Good to see a clear focus on improving women’s mental health from the Royal College of Psychiatrists.
✅ accurate language and use of word “woman”
✅ accurate definition of woman in line with Equality Act and Supreme Court
✅ focus on women throughout the lifecycle including puberty, pregnancy, post-partum and menopause
✅ focus on addressing VAWG and providing trauma informed care
✅ calls for single sex accommodation accross all mental health inpatient settings, with focus on PICU (psychiatric intensive care) as a starting point

At least 9 males ran in the Female category in UK parkrun today.

One got 1st Female. His total haul of 1st Female finishes is well over 100 now, and thanks to him, the total number of 1st Female finishes held by men (that I’m aware of) is now 290. He also got 3rd by age grade…

If you employ a man in a strappy dress who calls himself ‘Ms Starshine’ as a childcare and after school club worker, don’t be surprised if he starts offering to kiss the children.
Also, you should be locked up for ignoring instincts that have kept children safe for millennia.

In the UK, 11 trans people have been murdered since 2000.

In the same country, from 2009 - 2021, 16 women were murdered by serving or retired police officers. Not killed by officers in the line of duty — flat out murdered.

In 2022 alone, 11 British women were killed by male strangers. 12 were murdered by their own sons; 150 British women have been murdered by their own sons since 2012.

On average, a woman is murdered by a man in the UK once every 72 hours.

Where is the Day of Remembrance for the women murdered by their own sons? By their husbands, their fathers, their brothers? By serving police officers?

In the last 25 years, there have been nearly twice as many trans-identifying murderers than there have been murder victims - 20 murderers, versus 11 victims — and yet we’re told to believe that this is a genocide, while our own dead go ignored and unnamed.

These people are, per capita, the safest demographic in the UK, with a homicide rate of 0.38 per 100k (for women, it’s 0.50 per 100k, and for normal men, it’s 1.23.) but we’re supposed to believe that they’re being physically exterminated? Or is genocide another one of those words that has deliberately been stripped of its meaning, like “woman” and “female”?

Who gains when people are conditioned to roll their eyes at the word “genocide”? When “woman” has no meaning in law or policy? What is the end game here?

[Prof. Gary Francione @garylfrancione]

The gay/trans analogy does not work. Feeling sexually attracted to members of your own sex makes is all you need to be gay or bi. Feeling like a woman (whatever that means) does not make a man a woman any more than someone feeling like Napoleon makes that person Napoleon.

1. Women’s spaces are for women. It’s irrelevant how the women look.

2. Men don’t belong in women’s spaces. It’s irrelevant how the men look.

3. Most trans-identified men would give at least one ball to look like Sharron Davies.

[Danni @DanniBrener]

@FaeriesHand @mgtruth So why don’t we put all vulnerable men in the ladies? Old men? Gay men? Disabled men?

Is it a room for female people or is it a room for “vulnerable” people? And who determines how vulnerable one must be before granted access?

[Bronwyn Millar @gingerhaderach]

Our child got a phone age 11, in 2020 when she was SO lonely and isolated. We'd just moved countries and the local kids were being shits. Within 10 days she "came out" trans. We didn't know WTF was going on but when the school found out they sent us for mandatory "counselling". The 2 psychs (wearing masks on zoom) spoke with such thick Cork accents we didn't understand most of it. They then asked to speak to her alone. I listened at the door. They didn't even ask about the horrible bullying the local kids had put her through, and she spent 15 mins saying "pardon" because she couldn't understand them. Then they told us she was trans and we had to affirm or she would khs. Sent us breastbinding info and sent our GP a letter telling him to refer us to the gender clinic. They put our name down for some bizarre "Big brother" type programme where an adult trans person, a total stranger, with no clinical training, was going to pick her up and take her for an ice cream so she could talk about her feelings. We of course refused, but as the Irish CPS has a horrific reputation for removing kids whose parents don't toe the line, we were deeply uneasy about all of it. We left Ireland shortly after that, returning to South Africa, where the govt does NOT trans your kids.

We found out that she had been groomed online, on her phone on tiktok and other social media, lovebombed by ADULT groomers like Fuzzz99, Jacob Tobia and Jeffrey Marsh (If you think you might be trans, YOU ARE TRANS! Cut off any family that doesn't affirm the REAL you... etc). She begged for blockers and T, which we refused. We did the pronouns and the name change but were very firm that hormones etc were NOT on the table. Natural puberty hit like a freight train. She started wearing push up bras for the breasts she used to tell us she wanted amputated, nails, hair, make up became super NB. Noticing boys, falling in love with her body.

She's now the MOST FEMME creature imaginable, has a long term boyfriend, is fantasising about the names she wants to call the children she told us she was never going to want.

Of the 14 trans kids in the support group we joined in 2022, only ONE is still "trans" and he's a super femme, super autistic "aromantic" and "asexual" gay boy. One of the other girls now has a deep voice and facial hair and is furious at her parents for puttin her on the T she begged for - that she had said she would khs without.

We have been through absolute hell. But thank the Goddess I trusted my instincts and KNEW MY CHILD. It was a trend, a gaslighting cult, an inhuman attack on the family. We were told we were bigots for daring to question any of it. Affirm, affirm, affirm was the only avenue allowed. The mothers have their voices back now and we are NOT GOING TO SHUT UP ANY LONGER.

@MrTCHarris @bennite75 Just a stab in the dark here, but I'd guess that Dawn hasn't been a nurse, cleaner, sportswoman, or NHS patient who's expected to undress in front of a huge male colleague she's never met before then? Perhaps she's also never fled from an abusive ex to the safety of women's loo?
