"Categorising by gender instead of sex, and allowing people to choose their gender, removes the sex-based rights of women to safety, dignity and privacy, and creates a safeguarding loophole. This is not live and let live; it is women being told that our concerns do not matter."
We get lumped in with the righties but lefties like me are fine with boys wearing dresses and girls playing football and if they don’t want to become wives and mothers. I want people to have more freedom to be any kind of woman and any kind of man.
It doesn’t mean anyone is meant to be (or can become) the opposite sex.
New definition of "lesbian" just dropped folx:
"A non-man attracted to a non-man" 🤡🤦🏼♂️
And with that, the erasure of women is complete. Women are now only allowed to define themselves relative to men. You are either a 'man', or a 'non-man'
Not content with JUST the blatant misogyny, the bigots over at Westmount Collegiate are killing two birds with one stone here by ALSO erasing gay ppl. Defining "lesbian" in this way completely eliminates the existence of homosexuals, whose only defining trait is same-SEX attraction.
What say you @WCI_YRDSB ? Is this homophobic, woman-hating bigotry your official policy, or is this just a rogue gender cultists spreading their grotesque misogyny and homophobia using your platform?
@KonstantinKisin I think it’s time for this to see the light of day again. Flimsy Mimsy (Greene’s personal Martin Bormann) telling the world that destroying young lives is a noble aspiration.
@TheFamousArtBR@KonstantinKisin This is the same shit as men telling women to smile because we would look prettier.
Women don't have to be nice to misogynistic assholes.
“I’m a trans woman and I’m not ashamed to admit I’d be happy to physically kick the s**t out of you pull your eyes out and break your spine.
...If you want to prove your point that some trans people are extremely violent, I’m game.”

The LGBT+ community is touted as a bastion of progressive thought, I think this is not the case. How is treating women and girls, the female sex, with the same derision as previous male patriarchs in any way progressive??

Is the LGBT community even FOR women? Yeah, you have lesbian and bi in there but there is some serious misogyny going on in its walls.
The feelings of men are being prioritised over a lesbian's right to not be hit on by the opposite sex.. #LGB
It feels like a direct parallel to the sexism and misogyny women face/faced from straight men.
BOTH don't like listening to us when we talk about our class-specific issues. BOTH take the female need for sex segregation and separate speech as an affront.
#LGBwithoutTheT
@angijones It's like they think people don't actually want them to play. Nah, we just recognise that equity matters and that females deserve fairness and safety when participating! 🤦♀️
@wrxmanpaul @reel_woman@TimesRadio@MForstater@AasmahMir I am not surprised that a gay man, who has no idea what it is to exist as a female, is fervently backing up another fellow male in his community. You and TW haven't a clue!!
I am the B in LGBT. Being in the community is not a free pass to ride roughshod over women and girls.
@wrxmanpaul @reel_woman@TimesRadio@MForstater@AasmahMir You say "most of" this and that a lot, where are the stats to back up your claims?
Women - the female sex - have the precedent of recorded history and moderns stats on sex-based crime to back up single-sex provisions. What is inclusive for men is intrusive for women + girls.
@wrxmanpaul @reel_woman@TimesRadio@MForstater@AasmahMir "Transwomen" , like men, are male - this is the key difference in our existence and it is the axis upon which women and girls - the female sex - face discrimination, assault and hatred.
They do not have female biology, they do not share our existance, they are no "kind of" woman.
Recognising this risk is being touted as "bioessentialism" by gender ideologues. In doing so you, firstly, prove that you never properly listened to feminists about the challenges women face and, two, display outright contempt and disgust for the reality women and girls live in.
"Transwomen" are male, like men, and pose the same risk to members of the female sex, like men do, as we are at risk of predation from ALL males because of our unique biology and lived experience as the female class. #adulthumanfemale#respectmysex#radfem
@logicalclover@TimesRadio@MForstater@AasmahMir Woman is a descriptor of females. Sex or gender lead.
The laws designed to protect women are from cis men. The ones that account predominantly for all attacks on cis or trans women.
Instead of attacking trans women maybe focus on the real threat.
The only people that think sexed terms refer to gender-identity are those tht subscribe to the niche school of queer theory. Obviously most of the world dosen't. Female single-sex spaces were created to safeguard the female sex because of the specific risk ALL males pose to us.
