“I decided to wear a bra because it just feels so nice!” Said no woman EVER

[ICONS @icons_women]

Imagine being promised a full athletic scholarship, changing schools, and moving across the country, then finding out a man was given your financial aid and opportunity.

This happened to Elle. Now she’s suing.

[Tina M ♿️ @serenstar4]

Bell, Im transsexual, Im not remotely marginalised or harmed by the law of EA2010 & thus EHRC guidance, Im the most pandered to demographic. Ive freedom, dignity, safety & equality. You advocate for unlawfully removing women's rights to accommodate Trans ID M. You betray women.

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

@MrTCHarris @podlette @EHRC No. No views. Not actually sure why the committee I sit on is still called the 'Women and Equalities Committee' as the Chair, and all but two of its members are rabid TRAs...

[Graham Linehan @Glinner]

Again, if you were a paedophile, why *wouldn't* you identify as 'trans'? These men are a sacred, protected class.

This is the new menstrual hut isn't it?

[MrMenno 🇳🇱🏳️‍🌈🎶 @MrMennoTweets]

Well this is quite something 🤯

An actual MP telling me, a male homosexual, I’m “attacking” an oppressed group for not believing that men can be lesbians and women can be gay men

Samantha, there is nothing ‘strange’ about simply acknowledging what homosexuality is and isn’t. In fact it is imperative we do so to protect our rights

Para 204 of the Supreme Court ruling makes it very clear that the protected characteristic of sexual orientation is based on sex

Para 206 makes it very clear that this PC, and thus homosexuality, is rendered meaningless when not recognised as being based on sex

If you recognise that gays and lesbians and bisexuals are an oppressed group who still face adversity, how can we stand up for ourselves if simply acknowledging what homosexuality is gets us framed as “attackers”?

How can we even begin to tackle the modern version of adversity that seeks to reframe homosexuality to include those of the opposite sex? That has seen lesbians having to go to court in the UK and Australia simply to maintain the legal recognition of homosexuality (or in the case of Australia find a way to claw it back)? That has seen a lesbian brought to tears at a tribunal when asked why males can’t be lesbians?

How on earth can you take issue with me saying that men can’t be lesbians???

And how can you claim to be aware of the historic fight for gay rights while not having any awareness (or lacking the courage to acknowledge it) of how for at least the last decade these have been under threat from ‘gender’?

Don’t pretend to know our struggle if you can’t even say what a homosexual is

I mean… seriously!

[MrMenno 🇳🇱🏳️‍🌈🎶 @MrMennoTweets]

@podsavetheuk Were women in the wrong to not notice this man was a man? Were they 'gender policing' him? Or could they simply tell what sex he was?

@AlboMP @chrisluxonmp Cool story. I can’t run my business because your government thinks men can be women.

Trust me, the world isn’t laughing at us because of my stance.

[James Davis @jamesdavis6939]

You can’t keep ignoring the elephant in the room that is your self-ID policy parkrun.

Allowing males in the female category is direct discrimination against women and girls, who are being denied equal opportunities.

Make the female category sex based, and get the males out.

[Janet Murray @jan_murray]

Oh no - not another tortured soul who must be protected from awful bigoted women.

He has an entire TikTok account devoted to posing in tiny skirts and performing a caricature of femininity.

But if he says he’s a woman, we’re apparently expected to let him into the ladies’ toilets, changing rooms and other female-only spaces.

[HeCheated.org @hecheateddotorg]

The head coach, Corey Cafferata was actually the one who suggested the idea to him, at first as a joke, but then once he realized he could game the system, in all seriousness.

Cafferata built the team's offense around Ludwig and was awarded "Coach of the Year" for winning the conference two years in a row with the 6'6" male ringer on his women's team

[HeCheated.org @hecheateddotorg]

What I desperately want people to know about Robert "Gabrielle" Ludwig was that he was not attending college when he decided to join this team.

He already had a well established career (his boss even paid for his cosmetic surgeries), was twice divorced, and had his own children

He signed up for meaningless online college credits just SO HE COULD PLAY BASKETBALL with this women's team.

He was in his 50s while the majority of his teammates were teenagers. This is a two-year community college.

He set two school records for rebounds at the time.

I'm still waiting for the case of the 50-year-old woman who the doctor describes as obese and who hasn't played basketball since high school setting records after joining the collegiate men's team.

[Ryan Nelson @ryan_nelso16107]

What’s inclusive about this?

In any competitive or sex-segregated environment:

If a male-bodied athlete enters the girls' category and a girl loses a spot, a race or her sense of safety, then the girl is the one excluded

That is a fact of outcomes, not a political opinion!

[Ryan Nelson @ryan_nelso16107]

Here we go again….

Trans cyclist ‘Chloe Spritz’ won two women’s races in Oregon, by a combined time of 48 minutes and 17 seconds

If you're not against men competing in women's sports, how on earth can you continue to justify it when you see a winning margin of 48 minutes?!

[Julie Bindel @bindelj]

To celebrate the Holy Interminable Season of Pride, I am posting my favourite protest to date, where Vancouver (Trancouver) Queers respond to vile, bigoted feminists (old white ones, of course) who had the nerve to meet to protest rape and sexual assault of women and girls:

[Diana Alastair💚🤍💜 ⚢ ❌❌✡️ @sappholives83]

They killed my 2 year old great aunt at Auschwitz, along with every single person in her entire extended family - 79 people - except for her mother and my grandfather, the latter of whom the family had been able to hide in 1939 after one of his school friends died unexpectedly.

My great grandmother weighed 72 pounds when she was liberated, and she carried the scars of the medical torture she endured for the rest of her life. She was also left sterile, and deeply traumatized.

When she tried to go back to the house her family had owned for a hundred years, a neighbor family had moved in, and threatened her life if she didn’t leave town and never come back. When she tried to collect her parents’ life insurance, with the numbers her father had made everyone memorize, the insurance company said that without proof of death, they wouldn’t pay.

The only thing on that list that’s happening to trans people is the sterilization —- but y’all are doing that to yourselves. It is unbelievably offensive to victims of actual genocide for you to pretend that men being told to use men’s spaces is even in the same ballpark.

[Janet Murray @jan_murray]

Dear @labourlewis

I have experienced several miscarriages, run two marathons to raise money for baby-loss charities and supported organisations such as Tommy's.

I am also quite sure that I am a woman - not a "birthing person".

Only women can become pregnant and give birth, regardless of how they identify. The term "birthing person" is therefore neither necessary nor genuinely inclusive. In practice, it erases the very people it is intended to describe.

Pregnancy, childbirth and miscarriage are profoundly significant experiences for many women. We deserve to be spoken about accurately and respectfully.

Please show pregnant women - and all women - that respect by using clear and accurate language.

Yours sincerely,

A woman who has experienced miscarriage

HOW THE LAW WORKS: A THICKO’S GUIDE (UK EDITION)

1. The people elect MPs to sit in Parliament.

2. Parliament passes legislation.

3. Courts sometimes have to explain what a law means.

4. The Supreme Court is the last word on any legal disputes about the meaning of legislation.

5. Legislation often sets up independent bodies to produce guidance, codes and other material to help understand legislation.

6. Guidance and codes of practice are not law and do not override legislation. Courts can (and must) take a statutory Code into account if it’s relevant, but it still isn’t the law itself. If the law and a code are in conflict, the law prevails.

7. The EHRC Code of Practice has to be ‘laid before Parliament’ for it to come into effect. Once ‘laid’, the ‘coming into effect’ is automatic (i.e. no positive vote is necessary) after 40 days UNLESS Parliament disapproves it. This requires the lodging of a formal motion by enough MPs.

8. Disapproving a code of practice does not, and legally cannot, change the underlying law. It merely delays the implementation of the code.

9. For Parliament to ‘override’ the Supreme Court’s interpretation here, Parliament would have to pass new primary legislation repealing or amending all or part of the Equality Act.

10. Before embarking on passing new legislation on something so fundamental, it is customary (though sadly not compulsory) for such a plan to form part of a pre-general-election manifesto.
