@helenstaniland@ZoeHollowood@DadsRogd@GraceBrodie The fact that this has happened so quickly is what's convinced me that the radfems are right. It's hard to think of a better demonstration of misogyny in action than the fact that women have been thrown under the bus so readily.
@autumnrain80@Phoenixsnot6@AlexM_Artist ...where children are or where anyone is who doesn't purposely want to see it.
You stop trying to change laws that end up hurting women and kids.
You leave women and children alone.
See - you still get to act out your fantasies, and we don't have to participate.
Win win.
@autumnrain80@Phoenixsnot6@AlexM_Artist ...In return - you agree not to call yourselves women. You can't access women's spaces, places, or sports. You agree to leave children alone. You agree to hold your sex clown parties in adults only venues and not out in the street or in public libraries or other places...
@autumnrain80@Phoenixsnot6@AlexM_Artist ...about how your bras pinch you and that you can't find the right tucking equipment. You can even compare how severe your cramps are. When you return from lunch you can dress up in baby doll nighties, have pillow fights, and talk about your crushes.
We agree not to bother you.
@autumnrain80@Phoenixsnot6@AlexM_Artist Here's the compromise.
You and your buddies can dress up however you want and call each other Susie, and Jessica Jennifer, and Betty Sue. You can go out to lunch and drink tea with your curled pinkies. You can comment on your darling purses, your fabulous shoes, and complain...
@autumnrain80@AlexM_Artist The problem is you're going to require that I "believe" some men can be women. I don't. I don't "believe" in things, I know things. Belief is for gods, unicorns, magic, ghosts, souls, witches, demons etc. Males who medically alter themselves to resemble women are still male.
This makes me furious and sick at the same time. The things that are being done to young lesbians in the name of inclusion are atrocious. This woman subjected herself to sex with a man because she felt like she had to do so in order to be a good person, even though her body was screaming “no,” and now she feels like a failure because it didn’t work out for HIM.
How is this any different than telling lesbians that being gay is against God’s will? In both cases, you have lesbians made to feel like they’re the problem because they don’t want to have sex with men.
"Updated advice for care homes sets out that children who identify as transgender or non-binary should be given single rooms and allowed to keep pets." The guidance reads like an LGBT Youth Scotland promotion.

😱J'ai été accusé de TRANSPHOBIE par de courageux étudiants anonymes, accusations reprises par les directeurs de l'école où j'enseigne, et qui souhaitent désormais se séparer de moi avant la rentrée...
La raison ? J'enseigne Darwin et les stratégies de reproduction des espèces animales et végétales, qui sont basées sur la sexualité au sens biologique. Aux yeux d’étudiants exclusivement nourris de théorie du genre et pour qui le sexe est un choix, cela constituerait une faute.
Même si je parle du sexe des fleurs ou du taux de reproduction des lapins.🪻🐰
Je crois que nous vivons une époque de pure folie. En vingt ans de carrière dans l'enseignement, je n'ai jamais vu cela.🙄
It's very easy to point to a retweet or two and say 'look at this!', but it's a great deal harder to actually take anything that @glinner has said directly about trans ideology and point out where he might be wrong. If @jonronson really had the courage of his convictions, he'd address that wouldn't he?
Answer: Trans is made up, not innate, and gender "care" is harmful to kids. Nobody is innately not themselves. The idea is absurd. Some people break stereotypes or norms and this is FINE in the sex they actually are. The lawmakers have been lied to by WPATH and co-opted LGB organizations, which were also lied to. This is where we are. Time to reverse ferret, Democrats. Gender Affirmation is a medical fraud.
It's quite ironic to write a book about male anxiety and a crisis of masculinity but passively aggressively include as a case study a man who is prepared to square up and tell people to fuck off to their faces.
No, I'm not asking for 'blandness' or suburban approval. I'm asking for a movement that actually centers same-sex attraction instead of erasing it.
Young lesbian and gay kids shouldn't have to march in front of heterosexual people's sexual fetishes and BDSM play.
We shouldn't be pressured to defend every kink or fetish as if it's the same fight as ours.
Being a lesbian loses all meaning when a man can simply identify as a woman and call himself a lesbian.
You can't identify your way out of your own body or into something you're not. The original Pride was about the right to love who we love without shame, not about redefining everything out of existence.
In a book purporting to be about ‘men unravelling’ how much more interesting and pertinent would have been a chapter on Jolyon Maugham or Jason Arday than a Man Who Was Rude on the Internet. But men like Ronson and Aaronovitch know their ‘curiosity’ can only go one way.
The other way means acknowledging a whole raft of things about men and institutional compliance, which may imperil their dinner party circuits.
People replying, demonstrating precisely what I'm talking about. I'm not the one arguing for people to "perform gender" in a certain way– in fact *literally* the opposite. Again, opponents have zero clue what our position is. Man, I don't know how @jk_rowling does it. Exhausting!
