@TheTruthJackson Dude weighs in on a woman's issue while simultaneously showing zero respect for women's feelings or opinions on the issue. Then calls out people for their priviledge when they disagree.
You do not have the moral high ground, bud. Virtue signalling is for assholes. Stop it.
@TheJeremyDavid It's ironic that you think you have the moral high ground here. She's a woman who has an opinion on a women's rights issue and you're out here as a man telling her to shut up and dribble while simultaneously re-posting the story to farm engagement. Just stop already.
@CamLemons_ And yet here you are farming for engagement AND virtue signalling by linking the story. Two birds - one stone.
THAT'S the real reason this is still happening. Not because Sophie stood up for what she believes...but because it's still controversial to do so.
@SharksJosh95 What consequences? The fact that a lot of women agree with her? That's a tough one.
OH! You mean how the trans community falls all over itself calling her hateful because she prioritizes women's rights over the expectation that she owes trans women a more comfortable existence.
@d0wnsideofme No. Nice strawman argument though. There's a subtle difference between the two groups. Can you guess what it is?
If you said one group generally has a penis, you would be correct.
Or put another way, many women feel that there's too many dicks in women's sport and change rooms.
@MixedBrandMedia Not her job to tell ANYONE what and how to think. I'm not sure why she's getting heat for speaking up about how WOMEN feel regarding their own spaces and who they consent to share them with.
The rallies exist because enough women feel strongly about this. Nobody is owed access.
@TCIIIESQ21@TheCarSalesDude@dragonfan817 And even if those are the actual numbers, women are saying 1 in 5000 is too many. That is their right, even if you think it's a trivial issue, many women don't. If the issue is loud enough to force comments and protests, who are you to dismiss it?
@TCIIIESQ21 "almost nobody"
Have you considered having a conversation with women who have been affected by the issue? I'm pretty sure their take is slightly less dismissive that yours.
The lack of fairness for women who ARE affected is worth addressing, even if YOU can't be bothered.
@StephCopley The fact that you can believe this with your whole being while also defending the rights of trans athletes to compete in women's sport without women's consent is laughable. It must be difficult to virtue signal in all directions at the same time. Pick a lane.
@StephCopley Folks are just pointing out that consent was neither asked for or given by women. And while the issue may not be large in terms of scale, it is large in terms of principle. Why would consent be considered an optional step in your mind? You can be an ally and still set boundaries.
@augustgotter@dhorn607@moo4isu@StephCopley You're taking a somewhat backwards look at this. "Blown out of proportion" is another way of saying it's okay until it becomes a larger problem/issue. What many women are saying is that it is not okay AT ALL. The issue is binary, not proportional.
@RaithRoguestar@wakeupusa Just pointing out that pro-life people LOVE to have an opinion on other people's lives. Given your meme, I figured that meant you couldn't be pro life. Get it?
@bruce_arthur Your lack of respect for different opinions while thinking you occupy the moral high ground is exhausting. You believe that women should have the right of consent, but ALSO feel they should have zero agency to manage their own spaces. Pick a lane, bud.
@mmcornelius@JustinTN865 Stop it. Your implication with this response is that trans women do not differ from biological women.
Socially you can be whatever you want, but that does not automatically give you carte blanche access to women's sports and personal spaces without obtaining consent.
