Hahahahaha this has me rolling

 

[Icing _on_ the_cake]

Just acknowledging female body parts is transphobic now is it? I heard breathing is transphobic and harmful to marginalised people. We should really just stop breathing just incase it’s offensive.

That's what's going to happen if you decide to wage war against reality.

 

[Glortard]

Transmisogyny is not a thing.

Cis is not a thing.

Transwomen are men. Transmen are women.

Paris Lees, Munroe Bergdorf, Blaire White, Lily Madigan, India Willoughby, Shon Fae. All blokes.

I’m sure these statements make me a massive bigoted TERFy transphobe in this brave new world, but at this stage I couldn’t give a flying feck.
[/QUOTE]

Had to look the first thing up and it was coined by "someone assigned male" at birth and yes its just a made up thing

Cis is used simply to try and nullify arguments rather than counter them with facts

Yip

Biological sex is real and gender critical beliefs are perfectly valid........just let the hysterical purple haired loonballs scream and shout terf they will eventually get a sore throat

Where did this photo and quote come from? Is it real? Did he really say he will break your face? I’m struggling here.

Sorry @smellyfootballboots I’m not doubting you, I’m just in shock that this could be real.

This may be them https://twitter.com/sodsidian

Only reason I say that is a google reverse image showed up a few twitter accounts - not having twitter myself I cannot look at more that a few tweets but this was here

I don’t think I can ever vote Tory. They’ve been cruel with austerity (which affected me and my mother personally), they don’t think about the working class, they’re too pro-Union for my liking, they don’t care about the environment, and they want to bin the NHS.

Usually I’d vote Plaid because I’m Welsh and am pro independence but unfortunately, they seem to be going the same way as the SNP. I’ll have to spoil my ballot or something - I want politicans to know that women turn up to vote but we don’t feel represented by anyone and we are angry.

I think you should book an appointment with your local MP at their surgery and express your views.

I would ask anybody knocking on my door these questions as well as other questions.

Juno Dawson peddling shite

Lots of these books are on the approved reading list in Scotland and in England. Reading the description of the book reads like the fantasy of a "minor attracted" person

I have pictures of Monty pre-transition. I’ll post them if it’s allowed. They were posted online by Monty himself, even though he likes to whine about them being “leaked” like nudes he’s still tagged in said photos on Facebook, ffs.

I know a TIM who has a love/hate friendship with Monty and he once complained about how privileged Monty is, going off on holidays all the time and having those surgeries. Nothing poor or oppressed about him at all. Massive misogynistic scumbag and loves to harrass women like JK Rowling, Kathleen Stock and Emma Hilton on Twitter.

the comments under this on IG are hearteningView attachment 1127404

Tell me you are a men's rights activist harbouring deep internalised misogyny, without telling me..

Can someone show me where hate is being spread here?

Looks like this got deleted - the post underneath with the hello kitty avatar is there but this one is nowhere to be seen. It's a shame, I wanted to see the response!

 

[Couldlifeeverbesaneagain]

This is why I leave Women's Place flyers on the feminine hygiene shelves at supermarkets and pharmacies. A bit of guerrilla activism!

Where can I get some of these leaflets?

 

[Icing _on_ the_cake]

I guess 'what is a man' would tell us, depending on his answer, how far down the list women sit.

Also, has anyone seen the advert for Comic Relief? One of the slogans on the t-shirt is 'Love is Love'. I am sure I have not misremembered, but isn't this a slogan of the MAP community?

I think it was originally used by the LGB but it's probably be co-opted now.

 

[Falkor]

Sorry for my ignorance but what is EDI?

Equality, diversity and inclusion.

 

[carefulnow]

They can't turn off the quote tweets though I take it the responses are overwhelmingly negative (I don't have Twitter so I can't see the QRTs)?

 

[panda_eyes]

I watch the pottery throw down. Spoilers for those who haven’t watched it from 1/4 final.

Spoiler: pottery program

There are 4 women and one non binary female who goes by they, left. They are lovely, Scottish, seems a bit shy but has come out of their shell. (I had to retype that because I automatically used she and her because she is very obviously female.) The energy and cameraderie among them all is so female now it’s a clear difference when the male judges enter the space. I don’t know why someone decides they are not a woman, they have short hair, don’t wear makeup and wear overalls. Like every other woman doing the pottery programme, so it’s interesting. I haven’t seen the final yet so don’t spoil it for me!

I watch it too!

Spoiler: Throw Down

I thought it was sad, her partner was very very female and why is it better to be a they/them than being a lesbian? I liked all the contestants, AJ was the worthy winner in the final but I wanted Nick (Welsh Kurt Cobain) to win of all the contestants.

At least it wasn't Britain's Best Woodworker eh...

@Jayceedove Thanks for coming here and thank you for your insight.

 

[skronkywildcat]

I’m sorry I was wrong, the vagina museum did not delete the tweet, they just retweeted something from 5 days earlier after it so I thought it had gone.

 

[Vanelope]

This is a great book, it shows the utter devastation drugs cause on people both young and old.

I totally forgot about that book. It was very good. And not at all glamourising drugs.

 

[Falkor]

Scuse my ignorance as I should really know this but what’s a swerf?

Sex work exclusionary radical feminist.

 

[Glortard]

Scottish TRAs were pretty much worshiping the Scottish Greens last year, no idea if they still do. We know they can be fickle.

Yeah you had quite a few jump to them including that creep Mrdual after labour brought through the amendment in the bill dealing with treating rape survivors. They all wanted "gender" in there rather than "sex". After it went through a pile of men on twitter described Scotland as not a safe country and declared they where leaving. Sadly none of the fuckwits left. As the green party is still a small party its easy to get into positions of power which is why you have these agendas being driven. Its the same in the SNP as it was also in the Green party in England

 

[Vanelope]

Times lead with Orban railing against gender issues for elections. Leads to TRAs calling us all right wing bigots. This issue is aligning me with many people I disagree profoundly with on other things, people who are right wing, racist and intolerant. And they are often misogynistic. But they know what women are - so they can oppress them - and call out the gender issue. Why can’t the left see how this is oppressing women’s rights?

Edited because it’s Orban and also that he is lumping LGB in with T - which is obviously wrong.

 

[weeweegie]

This should be a parody but I think it's real.

Please let it be a parody.
