All the best people declare war on Hogwarts. Have you ever considered dividing your gender identity into separate pieces and storing it in hidden objects, so you can’t be invalidated to death?

Russell Brand's children will grow up without their father because he's a rapist.

[Akua Reindorf KC @akuareindorf]

Good grief @PeterTatchell will you PLEASE stop making things up. The Bill does NOT say ANYTHING about assumptions that the victim is “damaged, broken, perverted, abnormal, sick or immoral”. You say here that's an actual criterion in the Bill. It is not. You have to stop this.

[Jennifer Thetford-Kay @JenKteach]

Dr Lisa Morrison, chief regulation and standards officer at the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), told the joint committee of MPs and peers: “we’re not aware of any complaints that have solely focused or covered conversion practices.”

Clinical psychologist Dr Anna Hutchinson said she had worked with “hundreds to thousands of young people” and many colleagues exploring gender issues “ and I have never heard of any experience of abusive conversion practices as described by this bill.”

No evidence of a problem. Existing laws already cover genuine abuse and coercion. This bill risks criminalising parents, clinicians and ordinary conversations. Scrap it. #BinTheBill

[John James @JohnJamesNI]

It really is quite something seeing people talk about women’s boundaries following Russell Brand’s rape conviction while supporting men in women’s single-sex spaces!

The hypocrisy is absolutely staggering…

[Rachel Rooney @RooneyRachel]

Naming no names but imagine being a PR person, and having a client who was professionally associated with Gaiman, Walliams, Brand & yours truly.
Now guess which one they were told to distance themselves from?

When did being a camp boy or a tomboy girl become something to fix?

Dr Az Hakeem challenges the homophobia behind rigid gender stereotypes and warns how the trans activists’ Conversion Practices Bill could harm LGB lives.

This is my favourite thus far today and what I most like about it is the irate halfwit's glaring omission of any reasons as to why he is quite so distressed and hysterical.
Is it due to my position on trans-claimers, race, Man City, cats or the English justice system?
Top bants.

Thanks to @KSchnickelfritz for sending me this. Always admired Lucy but now…wow.

[Sarah Phillimore @SVPhillimore]

I wonder if this man can figure out why exactly sex is so important when dealing with livestock?

and then maybe he can think carefully about how we are also mammals and why sex is also an important classification for us?

If he gets stuck, maybe he can ask his mum.

Just beyond ridiculous.

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

95.1% of men in an anonymous survey admitted to having used coercion, manipulation, and pressure to get a woman to have sex with them, even though they knew for a fact that she didn’t want to. “Not all men” my arse.

43% of men surveyed admitted to having used another woman to make their target feel more secure, and to convince her to give in. 58% admitted to continuing to touch and kiss, even after being told no. 48.7% admitted to asking over and over until she gave in. 78% admitted to saying whatever they thought their target wanted to hear.

There are 36 coercive techniques listed, all the way up through direct force and use of a weapon, and at least some men said “I’ve done that” to all of them.

Speaking the truth about biological differences should not be met with the draconian punishment of overzealous, ideologically captured regulators.

This case presents a serious opportunity for the BC Supreme Court to push back against the punitive excesses of an out of control activist tribunal.

We stand with Amy Hamm and her lawyer, Lisa Bildy.

“We call on politicians to abandon this Bill and focus instead on enforcement of existing protections and accessible support for anyone facing abuse or coercion.”

[Sidonie @feministbirther]

@clare_mcivor 1. Men are 50% of the population with male pattern criminality however they dress: suit, boardies, cassock, drag.
2. Women in prison are a population significantly traumatised by male violence & don’t need more trauma from being incarcerated with convicted male rapists.

Today, we thought of several, meaningful changes @JohnSwinney could make to help women and girls & stand firm against MVAW. We'd be delighted to share them - will he meet us?

Dear Victorian Politicians, If you won’t stand up and commit to keeping men out of girls and women’s spaces, you are not getting our votes in the #VictorianStateElection in 17 days. #LaborLast #MakeYourVoteCount #WomensRightsAreHumanRights #FixTheSDA

[Ian Court @IanCour70323568]

To be forced by the state to accept that your healthy child is in the ‘wrong’ body and that their demands for mutilation must be accepted, under threat of imprisonment, is a form of insane and malevolent intervention in family life, worthy of the most horrific, autocratic state imaginable. The word ‘dystopian’ barely covers it, yet we are on the cusp of it happening. #BinTheBill

[Clean City Bird @cleancitybird]

For all the “it happened 20 years ago” rape apologists.

Go look in the eye of a historical rape/sexual abuse victim of the church and tell them they’re lying and it’s just a ‘political psyop’ because the Franciscan priest who raped him in national school and was their teacher spoke against big pharma.

Go look the adult daughter in the eye and tell her that her dad or uncles didn’t realise she didn’t want it, and that he was just speaking up for Christianity. It was “thoughtless casual sex” and there’s no DNA evidence (but lots of witness statements that corroborate). Go sit in front of her and tell her she’s a liar and just being vindictive.

What about the victims of Epstein? That wasn’t recorded within 72 hrs of the abuse either? Are you going to rally for him? If not, why not? If you’re going to spout rape apologia, at leaf be consistent.

If you’ve ever sat down with someone who’s held their trauma of rape and sexual assault for decades, and they’re sharing that for the first time, you’d never want Brand or Walliams or any of these disgusting pigs to ever see light of day.

10.5 years is not enough.
