enough already of the misogynistic "sex work is work" tautology.
No other job has rape as the literal job description! Prostitution is commercialized rape.

If binary sex was an invention of the patriarchy then how did the patriarchy come to exist?

Today MasterCard enacted a global policy to disallow the use of its card on all user-generated porn sites that don’t verify age & consent. It is too little, too late for countless victims whose lives have already been shattered, but this is still a critical step. #Traffickinghub

Had to miss @FiLiA_charity this weekend & so furious that survivors had to see this! @amnesty & all involved: don't you DARE speak the names of Sarah Everard, Sabina Nessa or any woman destroyed by male violence EVER. Time all your Ambassadors saw the writing on the floor too.

I don’t usually retweet this kind of material. But I was at #FiLiA2021 at the weekend while gender extremists threatened sexual violence outside the venue. Some of the women inside were victims of rape and DV. Do people who tell us to ‘be nice’ understand what they’re supporting?

Today’s public service announcement:

Women! Be kind!

If you’ve upset men, try to understand why. Think hard about how you can fix it.

But DO NOT, under any circumstances, try to assert your own rights. Or talk about your experiences. Not if you want woke cookies anyway.
