It wasn’t from a TRA though. Seems she has some quite startling beliefs - she made a comment about child brides saying child brides are not expected to have sex.

Just checked and she’s defended FGM a few times in the recent years. I get that she’s a famous feminist but those views are trash.


But she’s made comments defending it more recently.

I think she was brave in her time but becoming increasingly bitter and unpleasant now. This is her view on rape

Germaine Greer calls for punishment for rape to be reduced

I stealth terf at work and was talking to a colleague today about TiMs in sport and women's spaces, she was outraged and hadn't thought of it that way but she then said " this is a huge insult to transwonen who have the surgery they must feel awful..blah blah." I said " and more so to women". Interesting reaction, automatically deferring to the male.

But isn’t a liability only when you pin everything on someone or something and then have to work out how to deal with the fall-through when it’s discovered there’s something they said or did that you don’t agree with? That sounds a lot like TRA actions to me, personally.

Facetiously, you should tell her that it’s now transphobic to have the sort of view that *only* people who have had surgery are “true trans” and point out a male colleague and say that if he announced he was a woman tomorrow and your workplace supported it, it would be transphobic of her to not fully support and believe he was a woman, despite how many years she has known him as a man

Interesting that a group of medical experts are questioning the participation of trans in sports

International Olympic Committee transgender guidance criticised by medical experts

New International Olympic Committee guidance on transgender inclusion could undermine integrity in sport, say a group of medical experts.
www.bbc.co.uk

I thought the argument was that “the science” supported the pro-trans in sport lobby.

I’m looking forward to the Open/Unjversal 100m final at Brisbane 2032 when radical feminists receive a dose of biological reality as all the women are knocked out by the first round.

As seen on Snapchat this evening… busting myths about menstruation, that thing that humans with vaginas have for 30/40 years 🥴 And look at her Instagram name! If I had it I would genuinely message her and say, why not change to ‘Dr Everyhumanwithavagina’?

No Dr Wendy you specialise in caring for women with vaginas.
I’m so sick of people acting like they’ll burst into flames if they use the word women and/or woman.

I couldn’t bear to watch any more, I got to busting the myth about tampons getting lost and you can’t swim in the sea on a period as a shark will smell you 🤣 I will see if they bring up ‘Only women have periods’ as a myth, argh. I do hope not but I have no faith in a gynae who refers to woman as humans with vaginas, sadly.

have watched: of bleeping course!!!

‘This could be a trans man (yes so a woman) or a person who is non binary (also a woman)’ These are two gynaecologists. Of course we can make it clear that trans men might have periods but A: they most likely won’t if they’re on T, B: who doesn’t realise trans men are still women under the men’s clothes and C: soooo it’s NOT a myth. Dickheads.

TBF, girls also have periods! NB women are throwing us under the bus more so than trans men as the TM are actually making changes to themselves, whereas NB women for the most part making no changes other than pronouns

Anyone see this tit in Canada? self-identify needs to rot away

I think this is just a badly worded way as saying you’ve taken a home test and not had a blood test at the doctors? Surely they don’t mean crackpot men that pretend to be pregnant 😂 Canada is all in on the gender woo woo train. I have a friend from there and sometimes when I come across something I hate on Instagram (some trans mentalness) I can see she has liked it 😞 she is a lesbian but I have a feeling she’s non binary now although she’s not one to put her pronouns on social media. It makes me so sad.

Anyone came across Mr Menno? His videos are worth a watch. A bit of humour amongst the madness. He talks a lot of sense though. His one with Lorraine Kelly is spot on.

this kind of thing really annoys me, since when did it become offensive to call it what it is. Yet there doesn't seem to be any concern for the women it Amy actually offend, you know, the ones who actually have a need for gynaecologists and healthcare that relates to female-specific indications such as periods and childbirth.

Scrolling on TT tonight, I see one user called jordynlyn who is a trans female, doing a video on the issue of wanting to wear white jeans whilst on our period and the anxiety that can pose, whilst having never ever experienced or will ever experience that or any other menstruation related situation. There were quite a few comments from females saying she should delete it as it is offensive, I highly doubt it will be taken down. Yet im sure a video even suggesting something that offended trans rights would be removed immediately. I really do feel as a woman that the attitude towards women in society Is going backwards.

How do you self identify as pregnant?? You either are pregnant or not pregnant, there's no two ways about it. Only women can be pregnant. Unless they mean "do you know if you are pregnant yet" perhaps. The way they use these terms is so jarring. I read an article yesterday and one person was referred to as Mx as their title and "they" and the whole sentence took me a few times to read to comprehend it.

My sister is pregnant. She went for a scan yesterday and the sonographers said the baby was playing with his ‘gender parts’. WTF?! If I was her I wouldn’t have kept quiet!
