Continue on - last few pages were around the BBC article regarding lesbian women being pressured into sex with trans women, and someone also noted Kathleen Stock was on Women's Hour yesterday: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001153q

I’m in Scotland, and went for a breast examination the other day (it’s a small lipoma, thankfully). The doctor is male and spent lots of time clarifying on the phone and in person did I want a woman to examine me, or did I want a woman present? Makes me wonder how many complaints the Scottish NHS have had recently about this tit.

I’m glad the doctor made a point of asking that. My surgery has two people (women) present for an IUD insertion. Doctor doing it and chaperone.

I feel so sorry for Jazz Jennings. This TV show looks like it's sole purpose is to torture and humiliate Jazz.

This perfectly sums up what we were discussing on the last few pages of the previous thread

And this too:

I gave a small donation to her legal fund recently. She has raised over 80k already! A lot of people are behind this which is extremely encouraging. We will defeat this bullshit eventually.

I have just been reading about David Fuller who sexually violated the corpses of women and girls. Even in death we are not safe. And TiMs would say they envy that. That story has really upset me I feel overwhelmed by it. I can't explain why.

Poor Jazz, it'll take a lifetime of therapy (away from the family) to untangle that dysfunctional, toxic unit.

No words for the parents and grandparents, they are appalling as usual.

The brother going on dates with trans women? Propaganda.

Jazz is an example of what puberty blockers for children actually means. Never had an orgasm, not able to ever experience an orgasm, botched surgery because the PBs rendered the penis too small to work with, and the mother - on national TV for the world to watch - threatening Jazz that Jazz must dilate the wound in between the legs or she will do it herself. No wonder Jazz is overreating and keeps a crock pot in bed - Jazz is sexless, unhappy, overweight with a typical male gut and depressed, Sorry if that’s harsh but it’s true and needs to be said, not celebrated.

 

[Vanelope]

Televised child abuse. This have a sad end.
And all because they didn’t want a gay son.

They all have the same voice don't they? I knew exactly what this man would sound like before he opened his mouth.

duck off. Wrong time. Wrong place. And the stories couldn't be any more different.

Its a terrible story and entirely understandable that it has upset you. Its the grossest kind of violation. I refused to read the details as it would disturb me too much. Trans people who use this as an opportunity, to highlight the *statistically low risk* that they are at of meeting a violent end, demonstrate how pathologically narcissistic and lacking in empathy they are. Its bleeping disgraceful behaviour.

What are the descriptions at the end of the Microsoft clip? Are they the next step from pronouns???

Have you guys seen this? If we thought suspending Go Fund Me and other crowdsourcing sites was worrying, it's gone further.

Onacceptabel: BUNQ heft bankrekening feministische stichting Voorzij op: vrijheid van meningsuiting in het geding - Voorzij

Stichting Voorzij - helder denken over gelijkwaardigheid

www.voorzij.nl

It's in Dutch, but basically a radfem group in The Netherlands has had their bank account closed for not meeting the banks 'values' - aka not including trans women in feminism.

If banks can do this to organisations then they could easily do it to people like Marion, Ceri or Kathleen. Without a bank account you can't get back into your money, can't pay rent or your mortgage, can't pay for bills, can't pay for food - and it can take the banks ages to give you your money back. I know banks in the UK have closed personal accounts of white supremacists, could feminists be next?

Sometimes I think we're turning a corner, then this stuff happens.

 

[Satisfying Click]

LOL at a bank claiming to have values. Have they done the same for known criminals, or is it just women with opinions? I'm getting bored with businesses moralising at its customers. The Microsoft video above was a good example, I couldn't give a hoot about your identity markers, ancestry or pronouns. Just load my goddamn spreadsheet please.
