"A giant hot pink neon sociopath, making every nerve fibre in men's being scream bloody murder." Apparently. Lovely really.
The future is female (liberation).
I'm a radical feminist. That means my focus is liberating female people from oppression which requires dismantling all structures of male power - gender, race, capitalism and their offshoots homophobia, class etc. That's why I oppose gender identity ideology. Thread >
How did we get to a point where women are told they're conservative, far right or cruel for believing undressing in front of male people should not be a price we have to pay to use services? What happened to consent?
The NHS has published its new service specifications for kids with gender dysphoria. They state its primary purpose is psychosocial/psychological interventions. This is huge. Mermaids/Maugham/Webberley are furious. I can't understand why more people aren't talking about it. >
I'd say being angry that breast cancer patients are being prioritised over elective surgery is a perfect example of how totally self absorbed transgender ideology can make a person.
This pic says it all really.
Testerical person: "I'm a lesbian and you're an evil bigot. Not capitulating to me is genocide."
Liane: "Whatever dude." *rolls eyes in actual lesbian*

Nothing to see here, just over 7.5K people saying they'd like to be violent towards JK Rowling because she won't call men who identify as transwomen women.
Has there ever been another "rights movement" that so openly embraces and celebrates violence against women?
I have to say Graham Norton banging on about speech having consequences then throwing his toys out the pram and leaving twitter because his speech brought him consequences is really quite hilarious.
Mad how many people don't seem to understand that if you take your employer to an employment tribunal with a discrimination claim and they are found to have discriminated against you, you have indeed won.
This is a terribly inaccurate article
@bbcnews
. It's not a "trans film", it's not a "film about transgender rights". It's a film about women and women's rights. You're erasing and misrepresenting us. Please fix this.
Kate Osborne has written to Kemi Badenoch demanding an apology. Just when you think she couldn't make any more of a fool of herself, she repeats her ignorant, childish and confected outburst in print.
It's beyond embarrassing.
An epidemic has obviously negative connotations.
Dictionary definition = a disease, an undesirable phenomenon, of something bad widespread in community
It shouldn't need to be said that calling any group of people an epidemic is a bad thing
The Minister owes me an apology.
1430s: Joan of Arc killed because her contemporaries believed women must conform to gender roles.
2022: Joan of Arc didn't conform to gender roles so she might not have been a woman.
It's literally the same misogyny. >
I'm 43. I've lived through so many Tory Governments, watched right wing nationalism grow, witnessed the incel movement evolve and so much more. Still. I have never seen anything near the level of homophobia, misogyny and violent hatred that emanates from the trans movement.
Just Monty telling Muslim women that if they're not prepared to put up with male people in spaces they need to be female only then they should stay at home.
An unbelievable display of misogyny, intolerance and entitlement.
I lost my job to cancel culture because I'm a feminist. I'm looking at losing my home. Maybe
@grahnort
would like to help me pay my mortgage? It's just accountability for him pushing the idea such behaviour is fine after all.
Ellie Whelan: Is this rapist a man or a woman?
Jenny Gilruth SNP MSP: this person is a rapist. I don't know enough about them to know if they're a man or a woman.
Totally pathetic.

Jo did not "campaign to ruin lives", lie, send abuse or threaten anyone.
This is why women keep winning their tribunals. Because rather than deal with the reality in front of them, transactivists concoct a boogeywomen who they then set out to destroy.
Rugby League has made a ruling to ban transgender athletes from competing in international events just days after their ban from swimming. In 2017, Dr Lisa Watson, a specialist in transgender health issues spoke with

over the decision to ban AFL player

The funniest thing about transactivists raging at Richard Ayoade is that now their intimidation racket is crumbling they're going to spend the next few years realising they'd only bought temporary silence by creating fear.
Who's dancing around this? Kids shouldn't be transitioned. Not ever. If adults decide that's what they want that's their call but kids experiencing intense feelings which are probably transitory should not be making commitments that are so profoundly life changing.
Let's be very clear.
@IndiaWilloughby
's misogynistic beliefs that female people are an idea in men's head or something that can be constructed through surgery are the ones that should be repudiated and rejected. Not my belief that female people are full human beings.
Benjamin is now asking
@jk_rowling
if she's obsessed with him. It's like being in a reversed reality. 677 search results on his website, 40+ articles in one week, 24 tweets in one day. It's bordering on stalking.
@jk_rowling
A few things: 1)
@PinkNews
publishes tens of thousands of pieces of content every month, and very little about you as you are not popular with our audience
2) What have you ever done for gay rights? I chaired the Out4Marriage campaign
3) Are you obsessed with me?
It doesn't ever cross these tiny brained men's minds that maybe, just maybe, women want to have things for ourselves. That it's a category for women is enough reason for men to be kept out, it doesn't have to be deeper than that.
Female people are groomed into femininity from birth, we're routinely deprived of freedom and choice, we're taught everyone else's needs always come first. We do all the unpaid labour. Society does its best to ensure women can never just "act how they want." This is MRA bullshit.
If a risk assessment doesn't judge being a convicted rapist as a bar to placing a man in a female prison, what is the point of it? What would be too risky?
Most women I know are terrified of taking any medication whilst they're breastfeeding in case it has any adverse affects for the baby. Meanwhile men are like "pump me full of all the drugs in the world" just so they can get the validation they desire. Grim.
In 2015 I found a kitten who'd been shot 20+ times. I set up a fundraiser because I couldn't afford the bills. Transactivists used that to track me down, dox me and harass my employers. I had just escaped an abusive relationship and had a breakdown. >
Just seen that the sinister John Nicolson MP is going to be a witness tomorrow, he's so full of testerical fury at the LGBA because they're women who slighted his ego, I'm sure it's going to be quite the spectacle.
Two of the most misogynistic tras on Wikipedia, who spend all their time pushing pov and nonsense into articles and bullying people who try to stop them, have been banned from editing articles relating to gender/sex. I'm gobsmacked. It could be significant.
Wondering how many times 6 ft tall, built like a brick shithouse, Monty has ever genuinely been at risk. What an absolute arsehole. He consistently uses women's reality and fears as a means to prop up his fantasy. It's unbelievably grim.
"One day we'll take them back."
The lack of self awareness here is astounding. I just can't imagine anyone could be oblivious to how misogynistic this is.
Just want everyone to know that
@IndiaWilloughby
is trying to intimidate and threaten me by doxing by sharing this article, ⬇️ about me raising funds to save the life of a kitten who had been shot in the face. India deleted it but I am not ashamed.
Day one of the trial and it could not be clearer that transphobia was not a motivation in the murder of Brianna Ghey, the defendants are two kids obsessed with violence and killing who had identified multiple potential targets.
I genuinely can't believe that we've regressed to a point where homophobia is so tolerated people think it's acceptable to say lesbians asserting sexual boundaries that exclude men is equivalent to racial segregation.
Well done Stonewall 👏
Imagine if TRAs were like "we think we have a gender identity, we know not everyone does, and ofc it's different to sex. Yes, women need female only spaces sometimes and transition is an adult decision" and hadn't spent 10 years sending death threats. Things would be so different
Watching Laurie Penny get handed her arse by both
@jk_rowling
and
@janeclarejones
over her appalling behaviour is a great start to the week. I'm sure it won't lead to any self reflection but it is glorious to see.
He actually believes this. Blows my mind. In years to come we're going to be asking how we were so gripped by misogyny/homophobia we lost sight of reality pathologised non conformity, sterilised gay kids and prioritised privileged white men's fantasies over people's rights.
Monty is claiming that gender non conforming women will be barred from female only hospital wards because staff may be confused about what sex they are.
It's peak insanity.
Admissions staff have eyes, brains and access to medical records.
It's been 683 days or alternatively 1 year, 10 months and 14 days since I was suspended. I have no idea what I said that made a difference. I just appealed numerous times over the last 3 weeks or so after encouragement from

and here we are.
Transactivism is a

Power movement.
That is why we resist.
And will continue to resist.
That is not the world we want to see.
I can 100% confirm that men who identify as transwomen do not make me feel uncomfortable in my existence or my own "womanhood". Safety doesn't even come into it. I just know they're men and shouldn't be in women's spaces. Your inability to accept that is your problem. 🤷♀️
Within the next five years youth gender transition is going to be pretty much non existent in Europe. That's a fact. Every review shows low efficacy and potential for high risks. The tide, led by evidence, is only in one direction. Ideologists can scream and shout all they want.
I just went incognito to look at the responses to Owen Jones' tweet supporting the harassment of a gay man for wrongthink and almost all of them disagreed with him. Obvs it won't change his mind but it's good to see so many people standing up against intolerance and bullying.
Yet again I'm thoroughly baffled by Sally. Is she saying she thinks you can't get DNA from blood or does she genuinely think it won't show as male? What exactly is going on here?
I lost my best friend tonight. Words can't describe how much he meant to me or how lucky I was to share the last ten years with him. My beautiful boy, Lucifer.

Following this decision, a women’s association cannot exclude a GRC holding male person on the basis of that person being male. Exclusion would be direct discrimination on the basis of gender reassignment and while there are exemptions for that for services, not for associations.
"Without showing a shred of proof."*
*Apart from the 288 page book she's written based on "more than 100 hours of interviews with GIDs clinicians, former patients, and other experts." 🙄
"I know you were perfectly nice to me in the workplace but I told you to change your political views or shut up and you didn't. Can you imagine how that made me feel?"
The level of narcissism and entitlement is unreal.
GRA reform stopped.
GC confirmed as protected belief.
Sports bodies defending female category.
End of "no debate".
Gender Affirming model pushed back.
EHRC acknowledging rights conflict.
Men out of women's prisons.
Should I go on...
Imagine being a fully grown adult saying this about a kid who was bullied out of school. Regardless of why. The extent of dehumanisation and callousness it requires is genuinely shocking.
Transwomen are men.
They are socialised as men.
They display the exact same behavioural patterns as men.
The suggestion they are gender non conforming in any but the most superficial of ways, presentation, is ludicrous.*
Their masculinity and desire to dominate is unrestrained.
I think people are really starting to see the overreach of transactivism - the demand that everyone believes transwomen are women and insistence everything that doesn't back up their worldview is transphobic, enforced by campaigns of bullying and harassment. Things are shifting.
Monty: "Religious women who can't undress or comfortably use facilities when men are present are controlling my life. They need to accept their subservient position and wait until I've played out my entitlement."
Your regular reminder that it's not transphobic to believe that:
Sex is immutable
Women are female
Sex matters politically
Gender identity is regressive nonsense
Women are entitled to spaces free from males.
India Willoughby, a long term right winger with a history of xenophobic, racist, homophobic and misogynistic commentary and a reputation for being incredibly abusive, joined the Labour Party a couple of months ago and now wants to stand as a candidate. Wonder how that will go.
The response to Holly Lawford Smith's book from academics *who have not read it* really is a depressing indication of how bigotry and closed mindedness has taken over, and how easily patriarchal guff can become widely accepted in place of solid feminist analysis.
Pimping

I remember a time when a straight person telling a gay person that they're bad for not accepting opposite sex partners was not considered "commenting on someone's preferences" or "everyday critique" but a rather blatant example of homophobia.
Maugham has announced he's going to use his vanity project to try and undermine the employment rights of feminists. Fortunately his success rates are very low.
Well I see that today in court was a total clusterfuck for the CEO of the LGBT Consortium. How many times can you say "I'm not an expert", "I don't know", "I don't do stats" or "I've no examples"? If you're going to try to take down another charity maybe do your research first.
Lavery, who began taking hormones in 2018 at the age of 33, is claiming to have gone through an "estrogen-led puberty". Is there no end to the absolute bullshit these men are prepared to spout in service of their fantasies?
I think we should have a competition to find the most bonkers response to the new EHRC guidance on single sex services. There's going to be a lot of it about today.
Just thinking about this again. Men's health charity: "we know some people id differently but reaching the most people is our priority."
Women's health charities: "being seen to do the "right" thing is more important than reach or marginalised groups."
Patriarchy in a nutshell.
