Shifting constellation of some sort apparently. Fed up with misogyny but here we go.

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

Let me be clear. I am hugely supportive of the increasing acceptance in society of gender non-conformity.
It's long overdue.
But the trans movement is being hijacked by misogynists and homophobes who are using it to bully anyone who disagrees with them.
It's losing its way.

Going to be taking a Twitter break for a bit. I'm getting far too riled up.

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

I'm not complacent. I'm absolutely red hot furious.
I am raging that voting for the only party capable of defeating the Tories also means voting for the effective removal of women's rights by way of self-id.
I am so far from being complacent I might as well be on the moon. https://t.co/6EeTm9qOAO

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

The utter dismissal of the need for women's rights by the current trans movement is horrifying.
It's incredibly misogynistic to think female #cisprivilege is a thing when thousands of women and girls are raped every year and most rapists aren't even arrested or charged.

@BillBaggins96 @Indy_Leya @MumsnetTowers Obviously Justine and co are under tremendous pressure and I don’t envy them. But they must, MUST stand firm. They need to think of their daughters and ours. And they must know that the very worst they can do is start acquiescing. If TRAs smell blood, it’s over

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

85,000 women raped each year in the UK, two women a week murdered by their partners.
Yet this lot's priority is monitoring and reporting the language of women on the most female-centric and supportive space online.
This is what misogyny looks like.

"We want discussion" but a single look at their timeline proves that its only the discussion they agree with that's allowed.
Anything else and they're insisting on deletion.
And those examples mentioned are already being removed.
Bloody shameful. https://t.co/b9kXB8ncnQ

"There are 30 transgender toilets on campus in NUI Galway, of which 14 were formerly designated disabled toilets." https://t.co/lBKY2qbnvP

[Kate Styles 🕸 @bailey6117]

Disability campaigners are arguing that disabled toilets must be protected for them rather than transgender people, as disabled facilities nationwide are being redesignated ‘gender neutral’ / mixed sex

No, this is a time for @MumsnetTowers to stand firm against the shouty men who want to see a widely used platform for women taken down, because they don't like women questioning an agenda which directly affects women's rights. Keep supporting women #mumsnet #sexnotgender https://t.co/Bat2J9Mbvp

@Terfy_Memes Imagine being the type of person hearing someone talk about FGM and that's the thing you feel you need to raise awareness about.😣

@rencIithero Its the Irritating Gentleman by Berthold Woltze. Getting on for 150 years old now and it struck me just how relatable it is to pretty much every woman I know.

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

The funny thing about TRA trolls going for Mumsnet is that they are pretty much the equivalent of some bore mansplaining something completely incorrectly to a woman and then getting into a huff when she doesn't coo over how clever he is 😂😂

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

@JackyHolyoake Perfect example of how MN is being targeted by TRAs without any real basis.
Asked for examples of transphobia and they provide screenshots of posts deleted days ago for breaking guidelines. All the MN 'transphobia' evidence I've seen is deleted posts or ones cut of context.

[UntetheredHarridan @MxFem]

@Fishandcow101 I think @Womans_Place_UK is probably a good place to start. They cover the main areas and have a number of YouTube videos up

Killing girls. Actual girls. Because they're girls. Not because they identify as girls. Females need sex-based protections. https://t.co/5G8QybzhzH
