Sex matters and holding this belief is worthy of respect.💚🤍💜. Here to speak up for the rights of women and girls.

@filmbysophia @Marna65504138 🤦‍♀️- only men can be trans women and there is no reduction in the potential risks to women and girls across this demographic of men when compared with the general male population. Do you understand safeguarding Sophia? It seems you don’t,

Dear Lush (cc Chelmsford City Council),

As a woman who had half a breast removed last year due to cancer, I am writing to raise my concerns about your “Proud of My Stripes” window display.

I am also, on behalf of other women who have experienced breast cancer, respectfully requesting its removal.

Because mastectomies are not a fashion statement, an identity marker or something to be celebrated.

They are something women undergo because they are ill, because they are frightened, because they are trying to stay alive.

Around 59,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK every year. Many will undergo surgery - a mastectomy, lumpectomy or other procedure.

Others choose preventive mastectomies because they carry a high-risk BRCA gene mutation.

If a woman chooses to have her breasts removed to affirm a gender identity, that is her personal choice.

I honestly don’t know the number of women who have elective mastectomies for this reason.

What I do know is that it is a tiny number compared with those for whom breast surgery is medically necessary and not something to be celebrated.

I think I speak for many women who have experienced breast cancer - and for their families - when I say this:

Breast removal surgery is not something I regard as cute, playful or empowering.

Nor is it something I believe retailers should be celebrating.

For that reason, I am requesting that the display be removed and that @ChelmsCouncil apologise for promoting it on social media.

Yours sincerely,

Janet Murray

Remember, every person who says they are disgusted by the Supreme Court judgment is admitting that:

They’re disgusted that female sexual assault survivors might meet in a support group to open up about their trauma, without men being present.

They’re disgusted that lesbians can socialise exclusively with other lesbians, without men being present.

They’re disgusted by new mothers gathering together to discuss breastfeeding or post partum problems, without men being present.

They’re disgusted that girls can play sport with other girls and shower, change and dress, without boys being present.

They’re disgusted that organisations - which realise they are too male dominated - can’t fill any female quotas with other men.

They’re disgusted that vulnerable female prisoners and arrestees can’t be searched by men or kept in a cell with other men.

They’re disgusted that women can have their own things.

They’re disgusted by the Equality Act 2010.

They’re disgusted by the law.

Isn’t that disgusting?

If it were up to me, I'd give these students a choice of deferral for a couple of years while they do some growing up. Or else an essay, set by Michael, and then discussed with him in a public tutorial.

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@WilliamJHague @bornofwoman @michaelpforan Any students resorting to aggression, intimidation and tantrumming in response to ideas and opinions they don’t like should have their university places withdrawn. They clearly don’t have the brain capacity to think critically and should never have had a place offered to them.

[Richard Dawkins @RichardDawkins]

This unqualified bore says his secondhand opinions are “not up for debate.” Yes they are. At a university all opinions are up for debate. If you cannot defend your opinions rationally, either they are indefensible or you are too stupid to defend them. In either case you have no right to force them on students who have expressed their wish to attend a lecture by doing so.

Mr. Davies,

For a brief, fleeting 10-15 years, WE ALMOST HAD IT. The years between 1998-2012, roughly, we were very close, when no one really gave a damn either way. I remember it distinctly. An enormous shift in attitude’s & acceptance had occurred, after the horrors of being gay in the 80’s to the early-mid 90’s.

I was NOT alone in feeling this, even amongst the upper echelons of the ‘Gay Mafia’ I used to hang around with said the same.

The original aim was EQUALITY & we were, more or less, there.

Then along came identity politics, gender ideology & Que*r Theory, which screwed everything up.

Stonewall’s CEO, Ruth Hunt, said in 2014/15, & I quote, that their shift in focus was “known to be controversial, that it would be difficult, that people would LOSE by that & that herself & the staff thought THAT WAS A PRICE WORTH PAYING.” In other words, they KNEW this would receive pushback, yet were unwilling to listen or engage with those of us who had serious concerns.

A subsequent Stonewall CEO, Nancy Kelley, called lesbians “sexual racists” for not including men in their dating pool.

Michael Cashman called for those who had questions, predominantly women, about this shift to be “defecated upon” & there was “no debate” to be had.

And NOW look where we are.

Look around at the utter mess we’re in.

If you’re going to “look at yourself as an idiot”, at least be aware of WHY you might feel that way & what part you, yourself, played in it.

You cannot cheerlead & encourage an ideology that has caused so much destruction & damage, & then pretend to be flummoxed as to the reasons WHY everything has got so much worse.

Just so we’re clear…

[Helen Joyce @HJoyceGender]

This is disgraceful. If only the HEFSA complaints scheme was up and running - Michael would have a strong complaint here. But sadly Bridget Phillipson postponed it just a few days before it was due to come into force.

[Maya Forstater @MForstater]

This is appalling.

What is the university doing to make sure that these lectures could go ahead without disruption?

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@LGBTQPrideUK @michaelpforan Listening to thoughts and opinions you don’t agree with doesn’t amount to bullying or harassment. Intimidating those with different opinions to yours though…..also if you need to resort to intimidation rather than reasoned counter points you already lost.

[Michael Foran @michaelpforan]

It is unfortunate that these protesters have chosen disruption over genuine intellectual engagement grounded in academic charity and rigour. In attempting to shame students into deplatforming these lectures, they manifest the antithesis of what a university stands for.

[Victoria Smith @glosswitch]

Women who've asked for women-only spaces haven't turned the conversation into some massive, ludicrous derail about "but how do you even tell who's a woman?" People who don't want women to have women-only spaces have

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@FFS_WhatNow @EdithHiom It could not be more clear. If you are male stay out of female only spaces. If you choose to violate the law YOU are in the wrong.

[Sall Grover @salltweets]

My daughter is about to turn 4. My dream is that when she is 18, we’re having a drink & I’m telling her what I was doing for the first 5 years of her life & she is laughing saying, “thats the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard” and I can say, “You can laugh because we won.”
We will never take women’s rights for granted.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Yes, period huts are back. Because girls just aren’t embarrassed and awkward enough about menstruation.

But what happens when the trans-identified boy feels excluded from the period hut? What if he feels less of a girl? Perhaps it would be easier just to tell girls to stay home.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

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.

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@owenjonesjourno Our firefighters prioritise the feelings of men above the rights and needs of women and girls.

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@HelenWebberley @jamesmurray_ldn Third spaces and/or mixed sex facilities alongside SS provisions provides options for everyone. I get that’s not what you want, you want one group of people to do as they damn please regardless of the impact on others (usually women and girls). Once more Helen, NO.

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@mushycrouton @fiona_graph @micheal_olainn It isn’t “Terfs” who are “predators” it is men and there is no reduction in male pattern offending across the demographic of males you demand have access to female only spaces. You come across as having incredibly low IQ Sam.

[KimWright @KimWright249]

@mushycrouton @fiona_graph @micheal_olainn Trans people were lied to and told they had rights that they never had and are now understandably upset they feel they’ve had rights taken away but they were never entitled to them in the first place.
