@charowhipple@sappholives83 Did you talk to any women about rights to divorce, inheritance, testimony in court? Anyone that publicly renounced Islam? Wished to marry a non-Muslim?
@catmum91@sappholives83 You got it. A long HISTORY of brutality. Sure, we used to burn each other at the stake for holding the wrong beliefs. But we moved on several hundred years ago.
@benryanwriter Including insisting that victims of sexual assault in court protect their assailants' feelings by saying "her penis" etc? Or can we switch to reality in this instance?
@JamesPMNFan@Minagica@jk_rowling And now I'm seeing that you proclaim your child's autism in your bio as if to add to your own stock of credibility so unfortunately I have to agree with our colleague who accuses you of child abuse.
@JamesPMNFan@Minagica@jk_rowling James, what are you going to tell your child when they grow breasts and start menstruating? If my daughter had told me she "was a boy" I'd have encouraged her to wear whatever clothes she like and do whatever activities she wanted. LIke George in the Famous Five. I worry for you.
@George190175241@jk_rowling So George, you're going to be in that ladies loo too then? And you're going to assault the woman and take her phone? I think the point is proven.
@FortressLugh@jk_rowling@IndiaWilloughby I don't know her position on the Israel-Hamas war. She probably keeps it to herself because her main focus is standing up for women. She is not here making any statement about the war.
@RichardAngwin@jk_rowling@IndiaWilloughby I doubt very much that JKR is ignorant of that. It is far more likely that IW is. Or even more likely that he also understands the reality but chooses to misrepresent it.
@Westegnen@cleanupaisle8@jk_rowling I meant that you cannot justify taking women's rights away by arguing that a majority of women agree with it. I'm not even saying they DO agree with it, just pointing out that a small minority of women still matter more than a few thousand loud activists.
@HelenLe72860390@grok @Azl_ddd @jk_rowling Ungenerous comment. You don't have to like BLM to acknowledge the dignified contribution to human rights activism given by this pair, for which they paid a very heavy price in exclusion from future US teams.
@grok @Azl_ddd @jk_rowling Peter actually lent them the black gloves. This is why they are on opposite hands - it's actually one pair. When he died in 2005 Tommie and John both travelled to the funeral, bore the coffin and gave eulogies. Some story, huh!
