About time! It is completely false and slanderous to direct abusive remarks at @jk_rowling for her thoughtful essay and tweets. She has done a great deal to promote the rights of women and LGB people while always displaying respect and compassion for trans people.

[Allison Bailey @BluskyeAllison]

Delighted that JK Rowling has been vindicated, again.

Hold on, there's a lot more to come.

@MirandaArnold @waitrose Thanks Miranda . Lots of near misses round here . Just more vulnerable on a bike

[frances boyle @drawerofplush]

Hi @waitrose, I just witnessed van from Banbury direction,over take me on my bike at speed down Whichford Hill, on a blind bend narrowly avoiding a head on collision with an oncoming car .Shocking and unnecessary risk in their haste. Could have ended very badly indeed .

[frances boyle @drawerofplush]

@waitrose Hi Amelia, I am fine but was shocked at the time . It happened v quickly and van had disappeared around corner before I could get registration.

Why I #standwithjkr :
8 years ago a (male) ex called me 'cruel' for stating that gender was social straight-jacket; suddenly I felt too ashamed to question. I didn't want to be nasty & forgot what I had known. Then in 2015 the reality of so-called 'gender identity' began to dawn.

We did it. We won. ONS have conceded defeat and will pay our legal costs.

The High Court has now sealed the court order that sex in census cannot be self-identified.

Please share the news!

Representation matters

[FiLiA @FiLiA_charity]

Looking to leaders of the main parties to condemn state brutality against Women at a peaceful vigil.

@BorisJohnson @Keir_Starmer

It is way beyond time that you took violence against Women seriously.

The only "women" the majority of Scottish politicians can bear to protect from harm and hate are those born male. What's next? Scottish witch mania 2.0? Dangerous times.

Female people exist and are oppressed on the basis of sex.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay witches!

[LGB Alliance @AllianceLGB]

On International Women’s Day, let’s remember that when we formed the Gay Liberation Front in 1970, we knew gay rights & women’s liberation must go hand in hand. For “queer” activists to attack a group of feminist demonstrators would have been unthinkable.

Attention Libfems!
Can I ask that this #IWD2021 that you look up one little word? It's in red, below.
Google it & recognise it in the behaviour of men forcing their way into your spaces, online & off.
Your kindness is a beautiful thing - don't waste it.

I want to tell you a story. It illustrates the low level, but unpleasant hassle faced by academics holding views deemed unacceptable by self-appointed defenders of public safety. I'm not going to name names. I'm not interested in facilitating a pile on. The abused is>>

[TransgenderTrend @Transgendertrd]

"The whole reason sport is split into male and female categories is not so someone can express gender identity; it’s to give women a chance to make finals and win things.” Thank you @Daley_thompson.
