Pornography isn't speech.
It's a human trafficking industry.
Free speech refers to the expression of opinions.
Pornography depicts sexual abuse and rape.
People have written tweets, worn T-shirts and carried placards not only calling me a transphobe, but calling for my death. A horror novel gleefully celebrated my imagined death. I neither sued any of these individuals, nor did I whine about any of them while doing book promotion.
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.
The BBC calls a male neo-Nazi ‘she’, because their absolutist belief in gender identity ideology means any man - rapist, voyeur, terrorist, murderer or paedophile - must be described as a woman the moment he says he’s one. https://t.co/NfTKo5PkSJ
@jk_rowling In the everlasting quest to be “inclusive” she didn’t even bother to include “transmen”. Far too distracted with including the actual men in the single most traumatic thing that could happen during pregnancy, which only happens to a woman.
I’ll never forget the TIM who joined a support group for women who had experienced a stillbirth because he was LARPing a pregnancy and planned to end it with a fake stillbirth. When women objected, they were ejected from the group. A support group for grieving mothers prioritized the make-believe game of a male fetishist over women who had lost children. It’s the worst trans story I know that didn’t end in a prison sentence or death.
When this madness ends, which it will, one of the ugliest things to look back on will be how women weren't even allowed to the dignity of owning their sex-specific trauma. The misogyny is simply breathtaking.
@latsot Men really have no clue what it is to grow up as a girl.
Even the men who really, really want to get their hands on young teenaged girls' breasts.
💬 Day 1: “And when you say natal woman, what you mean is ‘a person at the time of biological birth who was identified to be a female’”.
💬 Day 3: “And when you say biological women, you're referring to women who are biological, assigned female gender at birth?”
Justice Melissa Perry never misses an opportunity to frame ‘woman’ in terms of gender ideology.
❌ We are NOT an “identity”. We are NOT “assigned female”. We are NOT “c*sgender”.
We ARE women: Adult human females.

Imagine being raped, battling through a traumatic justice system, somehow securing a guilty verdict to then find out there is an advocacy group for CONVICTED RAPISTS who are about to make your life miserable? Well that’s exactly what rape survivors in Scotland are dealing with.
Transgenderism = BDSM
"Trans women" are men with a fetish for humiliation; they act out being humiliated as women because they get off on seeing women humiliated.
So the "TERF", or the woman who says "no" to them, is their final frontier and their dominatrix fantasy.
Because I very vocally criticize "trans women," they will follow me and sometimes offer me money to publicly humiliate them.
I never accept, but in case you ever wondered if "TERFs" are a sexual fetish for "trans women," I have years of personal experience in the affirmative
Today I went to a giant Op Shop/Thrift store (Savers) for some retail therapy to try and counter the brain strain of following the Giggle v Tickle hearing. I just wanted to forget about gender ideology.
Walked through the shoe isle and sweaty looking elderly transvestite was trying on stilettos. There is no escaping them.
@TTerfervilles Exactly. My risk is so much smaller than a transvestite man. Yet this TTP is wandering all over @marksandspencer approaching young girls!
Has he done this before, I wonder?
As a clinical psychologist I cannot get within 100 feet of a child (or adult) without having an up to date Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) Certificate in place.
I can't talk to them, I can't test them, I can't be alone with them.
And nobody is taking off any clothing.

Boycotts of my work have proven immensely effective so far, so I encourage you to really step up the obnoxiousness and aggression for this one. #ProphetRobert
