@macc1877@BluntThomas@owenjonesjourno@AaronBastani I think we might've ended up in agreement, I've forgotten how we started! However, I'm fascinated by how we get to truth in mental health/therapy, as truth with oneself is so lacking, in favour of 'personal truth' which is often avoidant. At least Brewer tells us what she thinks
@helenstaniland 1st. No one would be checking genatalia. 2nd. Why is he okay with fibbing to young males but draws a line with adult males in sport? According to trans discourse there shouldn't be preferential treatment as "trans kids" 'know who they are', so why shield them from this reality?
@stellaomalley3 I recall you telling me about this re how cautious you had been so the research would see the light of day. I look forward to reading it. I'll be starting my research soon with the transsexual community. I've received wide participation + academic interest #metanoia#trans#truth
https://t.co/l7t0ZgII9V… Very sad. I've no regrets about my safe man. I waited years for his stableness, gentleness, humour, intellect and kindness. I turned down men who were good on paper, but felt untrustworthy. We're not even financially secure but I have only joy loving him
@macc1877@BluntThomas@owenjonesjourno@AaronBastani Your reply is an example of what I'm talking about. We don't need to agree with all statements, but there's a way of expressing oneself without prejoratives, assumption, lacking critical reasoning, etc, that the left tend to lack so their point becomes lost even if they are sound
@Wessex_Patriot@AaronBastani@owenjonesjourno Not sure why you picked this fight to lose. If we had better leftist commentators so much more would be achieved, but unfortunately many of the most intelligent left moved to the centre and the others remaining can't coherently present their ideas. Luckily I will be rising
@BluntThomas@owenjonesjourno This is exactly my point about the leftist commentators we have. We need more @AaronBastani's, not Owens. The ability to articulate themselves without prejoratives, name-calling, circular arguments, speaking over others or straw-manning is so bad on the left.
@Wessex_Patriot@AaronBastani@owenjonesjourno Because I read what Aaron wrote feeling it "was very well expressed", so I wrote as much, as is my right. His poise is so rare among leftist commentators -comparators being Owen, Narinder, etc who can't construct sound argument; instead abuse or strawman. We need more left Aarons
@PeterTatchell Why case-by-case assessments are irrelevant. Overall males have advantage over females. Trans women are male, not a woman/female subset. Substandard males don't get special passes into women's sport over other stronger males with trans identities. It's one rule for all
@ThePosieParker Absolutely disgusting. Legalised murder. It's killing your baby at any stage but this is unreal and they are so gleeful about it. Think of your baby the day they were born; imagine it being murdered just a day earlier. They could be adopted. Harrowing, indulgent times we live in
