You put it better than I could have done. This is exactly why they wear such dated clothes. It’s all about turning themselves into what they desire the most. It’s also why they give themselves such young sounding names, compared with female names of their actual peers.

Jon Ronson seems to have endless amounts of sympathy and ability to play devil's advocate for almost any creature in possession of a pen. Doesn't matter if you want to beat women on the sports field, or kill your wife and daughter (perhaps he'd have been more upset by the crime if he'd killed his wife and son?), he can find a way to emphasise about how it's all down to men not having their mental health coddled: https://www.archive.is/oldest/https.../uk/2008/nov/22/christopher-foster-news-crime
It’s stuff like this that shows why Pride no longer represents gay men (like myself) , Lesbians and bisexuals.
The power of the boycott
"I don’t think we grasp how insane the Bud Light boycott was. Business schools will look back on that marketing call as one of the worst brand decisions of the social-media era.
It all started with one sponsored can. On April 1, 2023, Dylan Mulvaney posted a personalized Bud Light for a March Madness promo, and that is when the downfall began.
After that it was just math. Sales PLUMMETED about 30% and stayed there for months. U.S. revenue fell 10.5% in Q2 and profit almost 30%. North America was about $1.4 billion lighter that year. Three years later they are still not healed — 15.8 million barrels in 2024, and only about 12.7 million this year.
Bud Light had been America’s best-selling beer for about 22 years, then got knocked off the pedestal a few weeks after promoting Dylan Mulvaney.
Conservatives know how to boycott."

Even if I wasn't a Terf/GC I'm pretty sure I'd hate this little dickweed anyway.
Bud Light was the manliest, beefiest, rootin-tootin-est beer on the market over there. All their ads had men in pickups and cowboy hats. They lost their friggin minds over that rooster inna frock. Bizarre.
Sone genius in the marketing team thought there was a new market to conquer, without realising they would lose a significant chunk of the market they already had.
I got served today in a charity shop by a 20-something weedy looking man, who had grown out his straw-like hair to mid-back length, and was wearing a boho style shirt and red lipstick. With a stubbly beard. The double-take I did! I was waiting at the till as there was no worker in sight and then he sidled up to the desk to serve me, after emerging from the stock room. The card machine didn't work so I had to stand there like a lemon waiting for him to try sort it out. He was so anxious and meek, I thought yep, mental health/anxiety issues are why you are dressed like this. He looked like he wouldn't say boo to a goose. I was paying by the card on my phone, and I had earbuds in, listening to Audible. My lock screen showed the book I was listening to...a Robert Galbraith book... ahahah. Don't think he clocked it.
Sad really, because he looked so anxious as he then scurried back to tidy some books on a shelf as I left, I thought transitioning won't make him happy, he's probably hiding from himself.
For me you have 2 types of 'trans'-ideology participants. 1) predatory porn sick misogynistic men 2) mentally unwell girls and boys/young adults trying to be someone else/hiding from themselves/something. You could i suppose also be both, if male.
One thing is for sure though, for the latter ones, I may feel sorry for them but I still don't want them in my bathrooms/changing rooms/sports/womens' opportunities.

Is the facial feminization surgery in the room with us?
There were quite a few comments to that effect on X. Clearly the surgery was postponed... etc.
'I was having to ask if I was allowed to pee at work'
This is what they do. Lie and say they've been told they aren't allowed to urinate. When they've just been told to use the correct toilet facilities. It's really really not difficult.
I’m thinking Granny Smith might be a terf
If you'll lie about your sex, you'll lie about everything.'I was having to ask if I was allowed to pee at work'

To v badly paraphrase Sal Grover.
Been reading Jon Ronsons latest book and just gotten to the GL chapter and it left a deeply unpleasant aftertaste. The way he brushed over what GL was fighting for? So spineless. The book itself feels rather spineless though, it also seemed somewhat uncritical of a man exploiting his daughters for profit online. Thus far I haven't gotten a sense of Ronsons stance though, he seems to be waffling around several issues without committing to any, but the central story of Chris Mark is quite interesting so I'm persevering.
I really feel for GL. Sounds like he got obsessive, sure, but he wasn't saying anything wrong and he didn't deserve to be cancelled. The fact his friend wouldn't support him and just branded him obsessive and stubborn, as if what he was fighting for wasn't important or worth anything at all, is just sad.
The normalisation of plastic surgery in general is shocking to me. It’s emblematic of late stage capitalism, where you are the product. That changing the exterior rules over developing your perspective on life and thinking differently about yourself. It is such a superficial and empty way to move through the world. Also, wouldn’t you be gutted if you had gone so far as to have your facial bones shaved and shaped, yet you still look like rit.On the floor over here
The latest BAR podcast episode is an interview with Jon Ronson, and I decided I couldn’t be arsed so just marked it as played and deleted it.
The Greens will be having several motions about womens sports at their conference
I listened to it, waste of time though, his bit about Graham Linehan is basically his tone is wrong but Jon Ronson never said his opinion on TWAW etc. I'd agree with him that Graham Linehan can be a bit too forceful in his delivery of certain things but at the same time acknowledge hes usually right and he can back up his arguments, I think so many of Ronsons ilk just want to keep their heads down and then tone police other people who are brave even though they know the ideology is bull.
In the listener question section he was asked about why he never mentioned the murdered les couple by the transwoman in relation to the Michfest episode he did. He said the segment itself was short and the Michfest protest happened 20 years before the murders and Michfest wasn't even mentioned in the murder trial. I don't believe in the slightest if a far right person had protested a womens only festival and then murdered 2 lesbians involved in that festival 20 years later that it wouldn't have gotten a mention even in a short segment.
All I could think of listening to it was when Ronson was crying online because he got passed over in the honours list again
I had the misfortune to work with Will Self in the 90s. Absolutely vile, supercilious individual.
Thank you for the share token
