@Ofstednews @educationgovuk I would just like to say that @Backwell_School is doing an amazing job of teaching our kids and communicating with parents inspite of the current situation and inspite of the lack of support from government and @GavinWilliamson. Thank you teachers!

The attempt to redefine women as a loose collection of superficial stereotypes, often drawn directly from pornography and regressive ideas of female passivity and submissiveness, benefits only the sex who imposed those stereotypes on women in the first place.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

I’ve just seen a post from yet another man who thinks my position has shifted since I wrote my 2020 essay about gender identity ideology and the consequent clash of rights https://t.co/pasxBD1Hzl

For the avoidance of doubt, I stand by every word I wrote then. For instance: ‘woman isn’t a costume.’ If it surprises you that I say men don’t become women by wearing make up and dresses, you didn’t understand the essay. I’ve been crystal clear all along that I believe people are free to live and present themselves as the opposite sex if that’s what feels comfortable and authentic TO THEM. This appears to have been interpreted (most often, tellingly, by men) as ‘and it naturally follows that I, as a woman, will validate a man’s belief that he is now, to all intents and purposes, the same sex as me, and I will use only the speech he deems appropriate and will be very careful to protect his sensitive ego, no matter the cost to myself in pretending to believe a falsehood, or the loss of my own rights due to this pretence.’

Dress as you like within normal bounds of situational decency, wear lipstick, sequins and a beard if you want, call yourself whatever you like, have sex with any consenting adult you please: I wish you health, happiness and safety. What you don’t get is the power to compel my speech and belief.

When I call a man a man, I am speaking verifiable truth. It is essential to be able to accurately name sex when discussing fair sport, facilities and services for women and girls and the right of gay people not to be demonised for their same-sex attraction. In years to come, a lot of useful idiots are going to awake to the fact that they’ve been complicit in enormous harm done to women, girls, gay people who stood against the insanity, and some extremely vulnerable young people. I don’t doubt we’ll hear a lot of, ‘I thought I was just being kind.’ Such individuals, especially those in positions of power, should be asked why they never had anything to say about the loud, public, widespread unkindness directed against those who refused to adopt their fashionable, elitist beliefs, eg, the detransitioners being bullied and vilified by former ‘allies’, the whistleblowers who tried to stop an unregulated experiment on troubled children, the women who lost their careers and livelihoods by standing up for all women’s rights.

Some people appear to believe it a worse crime for a woman to call a man a man than for trans activists to call loudly and publicly for the assault and assassination of all women who refuse to bend the knee. I have never wished violence or any other kind of harm on a trans-identified person, but, like many other people who’ve defended women’s and girls’ rights over the past few years, I have received thousands of threats of death, rape and torture. The wilful blindness of those who bleat ‘both sides’ will rightly be judged harshly in times to come.

TL;DR Trans women aren’t women, and if that hurts your feelings, be grateful you live in a society where you are just as free to espouse gender ideology as I am to speak the truth. As Orwell said: ‘Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.’

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

And what do you propose women’s rights should be based on instead of our sex, dear guru? Special lady feels? Spinny skirts and lipstick? Candyfloss coloured souls?

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

The issuer of that vile statement is a man, as anyone with even 1% vision could tell you. Specifically, he’s a man who said he hoped she died handcuffed to a bed and screaming in agony.

After Belgium scored their 4th goal vs USA, the whole team mocked President Donald Trump by doing his signature dance move

Pretty savage troll, especially on US soil & after Trump fought to have FIFA review the bogus red card suspension on Balogun.

Well played 🤝

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Western society is currently divided between people who know this is a man and are prepared to say so and those who know this is a man but lie out of obedience to an ideology. There is no third option. Literally nobody on earth thinks "Roxanne Tickle" is actually a woman.

“I am painted black on the outside. I identify as black. So why can't I preside over the anti-racism commission? Why can't I take care of this agenda? Because I am not black.”

Politician Fabiana Bolsonaro protests the selection of trans-identified male Erika Hilton as president of the Women’s Rights Committee.

Hilton, whose real name is Felipe Santos Silva, attempted to have a woman imprisoned for 25 years for calling him a man.

He lodged five criminal counts of “social racism” complaints against feminist activist Isabela Cêpa. Last year, Cêpa was granted full refugee protections by the European Union Agency for Asylum.

This is probably the most in-depth interview I’ve ever done. Over three hours long, and I recall thinking at the end that I still had far more to say!

Most of these assaults took place in what was once a female-only space.

@anfieldforge Exact same bro

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

I see Nicola Sturgeon is once again complaining that I posted a picture of myself wearing a T-shirt with her name on it and the legend 'Destroyer of Women's Rights.' Apparently this didn't 'elevate the debate.'

Is there a clinical term for an individual who has extreme thinness of skin when it comes to their own perceived hurts, coupled with a rhino-hide when it comes to the fear and suffering of others?

I'm thinking in particular of the two women Isla Bryson raped, who had to watch their First Minister squirm and smirk on TV as she tried to avoid admitting he was a man; of the five survivors of male violence who were ready to give evidence to Sturgeon's committee on gender self-ID, but were told to put their concerns in writing while seventeen trans-identified people appeared in person; of the mother of a young girl with a learning disability who campaigned against self-ID because she wanted her daughter to be guaranteed same sex intimate care, should she need it (the mother was presumably one of those female opponents Sturgeon calls 'shrill' and 'hysterical' in her memoir); of the ten-year-old girl sexually assaulted in a public bathroom by a 6'5" paedophile who served his jail sentence in a women's prison because he called himself 'Katie'; of Sandie Peggie, forced to discuss her own menstrual history in public to justify not wanting to undress in view of a 6ft straight cross-dresser in the nurses' changing room; of Marion Millar, dragged into court because she tweeted a picture of suffragette ribbons; of the Scottish rape crisis centres reliant on government funding who were pressured to admit trans-identified males into their services if they wanted funding to continue.

When Sturgeon refers to an 'elevated debate', she means a discussion that takes place within a tiny, smug bubble from which regular women suffering real life consequences of her policies are firmly excluded. These faceless ants are loftily dismissed as bigots, or, to be more precise: 'transphobic, misogynistic, homophobic, maybe racist as well.'

Nicola, you hated the T-shirt picture because you couldn't ignore it, as you'd ignored so many other women trying to make you understand their concerns. Appeals to your empathy, your intelligence and your compassion all failed. Apparently the only way to get through to you is through your vanity.

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

Ask yourself this very simple question if we allow a man to self ID into female intimate spaces how do we keep monsters like this out?

[Sall Grover @salltweets]

I’m all for womb transplants so long as the wombs are exclusively coming from “transgender women”, and considering “organ donation doesn’t care about biology and chromosomes” this shouldn’t be a problem.

Absolute morons.

[Shahrar Ali @ShahrarAli]

A row has broken out over an event's single-sex attendance policy.

Rosie Hayes told the BBC multiple venues in Brighton had cancelled or stopped hosting trauma-healing classes organised by her group Sisters Heal for the victims of sexual assault, rape and domestic abuse, which were limited to "biological women only".

She has claimed the venues were pressured into dropping the event due to "intense harassment" from what she called "trans activists".

Former friends who have denounced me for defending women’s sex-based rights commonly claim I am obsessed with the topic.

Along with implying - or sometimes saying outright - that they think I’m mentally ill. Usually framed as faux “concern”, of course.

Here’s what I think is really going on.

As someone said to me recently, when 50% of the population is being subjected to what feels like a prolonged public “struggle session” - with women being pressured to deny biological reality, their own femaleness and repeat language they know isn’t true - there’s a lot to say.

I’m not suggesting we’re living through a dictatorship.
But it’s easy to see why parallels are drawn with the “struggle sessions” of China’s Cultural Revolution - where people were publicly humiliated or bullied in classrooms, workplaces and other public settings for so-called “wrongthink.”

And the social dynamic - public shaming, reputational attacks and attempts at cancellation - for women (and men) who won’t go along with the idea that men can become women is playing out in front of us. Every single day.

But what many people don’t seem to grasp is that going along with the idea that humans can change sex isn’t abstract. It alters the foundations on which rights and protections rest.

If sex is no longer a material reality - but a feeling - then language can’t be fixed. And neither can policy, law and other key structures in civic life.

Categories that underpin healthcare, data collection, safeguarding, sport and single-sex spaces all become negotiable.

And if reality is negotiable, then everything is. Rights become conditional. Boundaries optional. Protections fragile. And women are expected to simply adapt.

Don’t get me wrong, I understand why it can feel like a lot.

But that's because it IS a lot - and not because women are "obsessed."

Every day brings fresh examples of women’s rights - and their language - being quietly eroded from public life. Of sex-based safeguarding being diluted. And the acknowledgement of reality being reframed as 'hate'.

I appreciate this must be uncomfortable to watch for those who don’t want to accept what’s happening.

Of course, they could simply choose not to look. Not to follow. Not to engage with content that makes them uncomfortable.

But they don’t.

Instead, they return - again and again - to issue moral correction. And to police the boundaries of acceptable words and thought.

[Janet Murray @jan_murray]

Men are not being gaslit in public health campaigns about diseases that only affect males.

Sexed language isn’t quietly being dropped from information about prostate cancer or testicular screenings in the name of “inclusion.”

Healthcare providers are, rightly, prioritising clear, sex-based language to ensure vital health messages reach the men who need them.

So why does that clarity suddenly become controversial when the patients are women?
