There is nothing called cis women.
Women are women.

Thread : friendly neighbourhood ideologists getting debunked

[🦖 @terfasaurusrex]

@GrumpyOW @jk_rowling @surreykiwi @donotwobble @tonymc39 @theglassfish13 On personal level you could call your white friends nigga. The problem only arises when you demand other strangers or friends do the same, or make subjective ideologies supersede material, observable reality for everyone

@salltweets @notwheeshting It will never cease to BLOW MY MIND that a birth certificate, one of the most fundamental legal documents there is, can be changed because of a man’s porn habits. I mean, what the hell?

[Janet Murray @jan_murray]

I didn’t really get the problem with gender ideology at first.

I’m liberal-minded about most things. 'Live and let' live has generally been my motto. I believed inclusion mattered. I believed in being kind. In not using language that might upset people unnecessarily.

I knew people who identified as transgender. I knew some adults chose medical treatments or surgery to resemble the opposite sex. That seemed to me a matter of personal autonomy. Adults can do what they wish with their own bodies.

What I hadn’t realised - and I feel slightly embarrassed admitting this - was that I’d misunderstood what was being claimed.

I thought “transgender” meant a form of self-expression. A man who liked wearing women’s clothes. Someone changing their name. Gender non-conformity.

What I hadn’t grasped was that some activists weren’t just asking for tolerance. They were asserting that declaring yourself the opposite sex made you the opposite sex. Not metaphorically. Literally.

And that this wasn’t just cultural. It had legal consequences.

- It meant men who said they were women were demanding access to women’s sports, prisons, domestic violence shelters and hospital wards

- It meant the rewriting of healthcare language - “pregnant people”, “bodies with cervixes” - to avoid saying “women”

- It meant children struggling with identity being affirmed onto medical pathways with lifelong implications

And also redefining same-sex attraction. Lesbians called 'bigoted' for not wanting relationships with men who identify as women. Gay men accused of prejudice for saying they're not attracted to female bodies. None of which made any sense.

But I'd also overlooked how far this had travelled - into HR policies, professional bodies, schools, political parties and public institutions.

And how easily disagreement was framed as cruelty. Speaking up felt risky - because others were being publicly humiliated for doing so.

None of this is abstract.

Because sex is the basis on which safeguarding works. On which data is collected. On which cancer screening programmes run. On which fair sport and single-sex spaces depend. It’s written into law - including the Equality Act - because material differences matter.

If sex becomes a 'feeling' rather than a biological category, those protections become unstable.

And once reality becomes negotiable, everything does.

Once I saw it, I couldn’t unsee it.
But I needed to be sure.

So I read. Books, research papers, policy documents. When I finally spoke publicly, there was backlash from all directions.

Many women thanked me - both quietly and publicly.
But some feminists criticised me for speaking too late.

Others were angry about a past interview I’d done with the parent of a transgender person, accusing me of promoting harm.

It takes courage to change your mind publicly.

It takes courage to speak when you know your reputation, friendships or livelihood may be on the line - when you know raising your voice could strain, or even end, relationships you value.

Once I understood what was at stake, staying silent was no longer an option. I lost my livelihood simply for saying I didn’t like the phrase “pregnant people”. That alone tells you something is deeply wrong. It shouldn’t be this way.

I will never judge any woman for when she finds her voice.

Because every voice adds value - whenever it is raised.

And I know how persuasive this ideology can be. I know how easily it bypassed me. And I know how much courage it takes to admit, publicly, that you got something wrong.

@richardosefton Because tranwomen dont need a private island to rape and sexually assault children, they do so in the public establishments

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Bear with me here, but it's almost as though girls and women who want female-only spaces aren't scaremongering, hysterical, lying bigots after all.

@Marzipan1356921 Obviously a fart that screams female

[🦖 @terfasaurusrex]

@Marzipan1356921 Your male women are done developing the male pathway, lost female pathway forever. That is the very reason they need transition to cosmetically mimic female traits without ever becoming one — these blokes arent blending in neither visually nor medically

[🦖 @terfasaurusrex]

@Marzipan1356921 You're technically sexless until 6th week in utero
Although you can still tell the sex of the zygote long before implantation. And after orchidectomy to long after death your reimains are male (on drugs) in forensics
All you've presented is a spiritual model of sex, a neoreligion

[🦖 @terfasaurusrex]

@hobabysoftie @TracycCoyle @Anonomouse500 @Marzipan1356921 @salltweets We wouldn’t see the mental gymnastics from the men who claim to be women if they passed actually as a woman - visually or let alone medically.

They can't blend in, disingenuous claims are their only ammo. See my replies to this Marzi person

@TracycCoyle @Marzipan1356921 @Anonomouse500 @salltweets Postjudicial point of view being coming down to "just trust me bro", will all offence — rejected.

@TracycCoyle @Marzipan1356921 @Anonomouse500 @salltweets They are castrated men.

Women arent dickless men.

@TracycCoyle @Marzipan1356921 @Anonomouse500 @salltweets Small cohort of women with male anatomy?

I see a good reason why us transphobes don't acknowledge same wine in different bottle to be novel.

@TracycCoyle @Marzipan1356921 @Anonomouse500 @salltweets Your inability to follow a thread is surely profound.

Take a nap probably

[Sall Grover @salltweets]

Detransitioners will end gender ideology for good because they are the undeniable proof that the entire dogma is absolute nonsense, and nothing ends nonsense like having to pay a lot of people a lot of money.

[🦖 @terfasaurusrex]

@TracycCoyle @Marzipan1356921 @Anonomouse500 @salltweets Sorry my grasp of reality isnt so profound to believe in unicorns. tooth fairies and transwomen being really women

[🦖 @terfasaurusrex]

@Marzipan1356921 Good thing it ignores the two thing that has no bearing on the sex class.

But sure, subjective feelings supercede objective reality.
You made your point, goodbye
