Women fought for years, not to pretend they weren't women, but to seek to redress the wrongs done to their sex class because of their biology.
Women and girls are coerced, persecuted and controlled all over the world by the larger, stronger male. Even in our most liberal societies, women remain subject to sex-based violence and assault, still see their reproductive rights challenged and are still threatened with rape and even death by men angry that they're sticking up for their rights.
'Womanhood' is not some quasi-mystical state into which men can identify. Pretending it is makes both studying the harms done to actual women, and enforcing women's rights, impossible. A straight man who likes wearing stockings is not a lesbian. Wanting breasts doesn't make a teenaged boy a girl. Both are male, and giving them access to women's single-sex spaces has caused proven harm to women and girls.
How does taking away single-sex spaces away from vulnerable women advance feminism? How did three men occupying the medal podium at a women's sporting event help female athletes?
You cannot describe what you're too frightened to admit. You cannot defend what you can't define. The last decade has seen a wholesale attack on the rights our foremothers fought for. It continues to astound me that privileged young women who've benefited from those advances all their lives are proudly urging on the dimantling of the protections and spaces that were so hard won, and pretending this is progressive.
Spanish 🇪🇸 politician Lorena Roldan:
“Against the burka and the niqab. If someone gets impure thoughts or doesn’t know how to control his primal instincts: let him cover himself or lock himself up in his house, not us.”
One of those things that never happens if you open up women's changing rooms to any man who wants to come inside has happened. Again.

@salltweets The difference between a person who says he is a doctor and someone who says he identify as a doctor is that the latter is a fraud. The same goes for a male who claims to identify as a woman. Self-identification is no different than fraud claim.
“A former Family Court judge says it was “an extraordinary overreach” for the Federal Court to find that the ordinary meaning of “woman” includes a biological male who merely identifies as a woman in a decision now set to be challenged in the High Court.”
Man makes a quick exit after he's caught taking photos of little girls in changing rooms. The incident occurred at Castle Point shopping centre in Bournemouth.
And trans activists say women don't need our own changing facilities because they're private rooms.
Dear @Telegraph
About your headline:
“Lloyds Bank bans trans women from using female lavatories”
Headlines like these suggest that some women are being excluded from women’s facilities. That is ridiculous and untrue. The point is that they are not women, but men. Stop confusing your readers.
How about:
“Lloyds Bank clarifies that female lavatories are female-only”

A 7-year-old girl was forced to wear a hijab and a full burqa so she wouldn’t “tempt” Muslim men.
An ideology that teaches that even little girls are responsible for preventing male lust and rape is fundamentally broken.
When a society covers up 7-year-old girls out of fear they might provoke rape, it reveals a deep and dangerous sickness — not culture.
TV host on Muslim Brotherhood channel (affiliated with Hamas):
“All homosexuals, without exception, should be killed. Burn them alive, throw them off a high place, or stone them to death.”
Happy Pride Month!
This is the total contempt in which we treat young sports women. This male has a huge biological advantage over a female in an explosive jumping event. Turning a very mediocre male into champion stealing a girls rightful moment of glory. It’s bloody outrageous unfairness 😡 & vile sex discrimination
Iran has just been nominated to preside over the UN Committee for the protection of women's rights, human rights, and the prevention of terrorism.
YES, IRAN. And it was supported by the United Kingdom, Spain, and France.
This is not a joke. It's real.

If nothing else, the Giggle/ Tickle decision will awaken so many people.
Some men, like Tickle, take a perverse pleasure in destroying anything that belongs to women. Vindictive dog-in-a-manger behaviour.
This ruling will eventually backfire in the court of public opinion…
Patriarchy is alive and well in Australia.
And women have no safe place to go as their own except their home, hopefully. Beyond disappointing. This won’t last because it is wrong on so many levels. But for now, here we are, 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺😳😳😳
🚨BREAKING 🚨
The courageous Sall Grover @salltweets has just been ordered to pay $20,000 compensation + additional legal costs of up to $100,000, as punishment for knowing that men are not women.
Jason 'Roxy' Tickle, seen in the video below, has been harassing Grover for five years.
The lawsuit he filed against her was based on his claim that he was discriminated against for being denied access to a women-only forum found on the app Grover developed, called Giggle.
This has resulted in Australia's legal test case for whether or not "gender identity" should supersede, and thus erase, women's rights. Today we learned that the courts of Australia prioritize the feelings of men who claim to be women over the reality of actual women.
Main Appeal Costs: Grover must pay the respondent's (Tickle's) costs for the appeal up to a maximum of $50,000.
Cross-Appeal Costs: Grover must also pay the cross-appellants' (Tickle's) costs for the cross-appeal, up to a maximum of $50,000.
When reading out the decision, Justice Melissa Perry said, "Ms Sally Grover and Giggle for Girls Proprietary Limited, engaged in unlawful direct discrimination against the respondent, Ms Roxanne Tickle, on the ground of her gender identity...
... thereby treating Ms Tickle, who is a transgender woman, less favourably than a woman designated female at birth, seeking access to the Giggle app... The appellants are to pay to the respondent a sum of $20,000 within 60 days."
"...The appellants [must] pay the respondents' costs of the appeal up to a maximum of $50,000... The cross-respondents pay the cross-appellants' costs of the cross-appeal, as agreed or assessed, up to a maximum of $50,000."
Tickle, the man who initiated the complaint, has been playing on a field hockey team for females - where he has said the youngest player is 15 - while also sharing photos of himself using the women's change room.
On his personal Instagram account, Tickle has also shared photos of his underwear and dilators, jokes about sex toys, and as well has posted several cartoons drawn by a Canadian transgender diaper fetishist.
The transgender movement enables the worst and most perverse men to utilize the law in order to terrorize women who oppose their displays of public fetishism and voyeurism.
The demands of men such as Tickle, men with sexual pathologies, are taken seriously by the courts while women who oppose them are publicly slandered. Gender identity ideology reduces women and girls to a male fantasy and fetish.

Yes, the implications are pretty clear and the lessons learned in COVID ship outbreaks were pretty clear. Many of us have been saying this for a week now.
If this gets out of hand, it was entirely preventable and it will all be @WHO's fault.
"Genocide" has come to mean "when some of our imperious demands to be granted free rein to violate sex-based boundaries on the basis of a claim to be female are not met."
