It’s TRA’s themselves that have claimed this. They like to paint radical and gender critical feminists as being white, middle aged and middle class and they like to claim that we exclude women of other backgrounds and ethnicities from groups and events.
In reality they themselves are the ones that have ended up excluding many of those women because they’ve barged in and made women only spaces and groups unsafe simply by their male presence.
makes it awkward for them when someone like Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie speaks about it

I can’t even understand how women can encourage him. How can they accept him to call their genitalia « Barbie pouch »? How can they accept to be mocked like this? To be replaced by him?
It’s literally just because they’re scared of being called ‘transphobic’ unfortunately.

As a brand they are quite militantly TRA. Get your scissors out 🤣
It's annoying because I found them not long after they launched and have been loyal from the start. I have so many bits from them... It pains me to say because I am borderline plus size, but increasingly garish prints and Aja Barber shaming them into offering a wider size range just means they now worn by activists and overweight keyboard warriors.

Also whenever I buy anything in Lush, whoever serves me is like OMG are you wearing Lucy and Yak? <<gush>> <<gush>> <<gush>>

Just done my jackets and a boiler suit. I'm free!

Yeah as an averagely large woman it’s a pain in the a that a lot of the decent brands have gone full gender cult! I’d like to buy from Lucy and Yak or Snag tights, but their advertising is absolutely awful. Molke is another offender, but luckily I don’t want their stuff.

These companies all seem to have the same business plan. Make nice comfy clothes and build a following. Then ramp it up and start offering clown clothes in huge sizes, in absolutely horrible prints, modelled by the oddest looking people you can find. Stick a bunch of pronouns in your advertising and watch the money roll in. Bonus for having AGP creeps in borderline pornographic poses in your Facebook ads.

At what point EVER has anyone claimed black women are not women?! Unless I have missed something I do not get where this idea has come from at all. Imagine being beyonce and being compared to that :ROFLMAO:
I’ve seen TRA call black women “men” and that we are too “masculine” to be women. It’s all over Twitter and tit🙄 it’s literally so dumb.

I avoid L&Y just because of the naff mumfluencers who had made them tres uncool 😁 I do admit to owning a few snag products though, bought before I knew about their advertising involving creepy men cosplaying. They are great for my chub rub in the summer 🙈 thankfully it’s not a product I have to buy often as only really wear on holiday.

I’ve just been looking at a children's book of poetry for girls, thought it would be a nice Christmas gift for my friends as a lot of them have little girls. Get them started on feminism early doors 😜 but then I read a review and it said ‘essential reading for women, girls and those who fit outside the gender binary’ and I’m not gonna lie the last line made my stomach flip. This is it now isn’t it? We can never just say women and girls. It ALWAYS has to be followed up by this or non binary. It’s so depressing because you don’t get that with anything aimed at men and boys.

This video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
just awful, the prison debate is SO important, most (if not all) of the people campaigning for trans rights etc (middle class women, and I include myself in this group - middle class but terf) can never imagine being in prison, so this is YET AGAIN another time poor and, often, black or ethnic minorities are being disadvantaged, It makes me SO angry, as i said the whole "black women are women" thing, compltely irrelevant when you are making these exact women possible victims of this madness

wtaf!? i have no words for this at this point, so black women are "too masculine"? as opposed to someone with an adam's apple.... I am so confused as to what on earth is going on. Maybe black women should wear loads of makeup and girl's dresses to make it clear you are not men? Jesus christ.

A Slightly Twisted Female did a video responding to a rather aggressive black TIM who called Macy Gray “masculine” which is gross as she’s a 50+ year old woman, she has more of a Motherly vibe to her.

But looking at the TIM in the video they probably see feminine as overly sexual - like pornstar level. This same TIM has a deep hatred for black women too, while trying to be one. (In the video linked)

This kind of stuff is rampant in the black community, I question my own femininity sometimes.

I didn't know about Snag and the agps until this thread as I keep away from their socials and don't really use Facebook. Wtf?!

Again I have been wearing snags for a good few years. I have to say though, their tights are gamechangers, I have suffered for too long in sub par tights, even ones from M&S.

Still about these men taking our place and pretending to be our voice:
Most women (or all) who defend these trans identified males also claim (and I agree with them) that men can’t speak for us in regards to abortion for instance (“no uterus no opinion”) but they don’t mind them speaking for us in these summits, on social media etc.
Don’t they see the irony?

The Snag chub rub shorts have changed my life. I just try and ignore their "inclusivity" advertising 🙄

Better Tights are apparently good. They make similar products to Snag but without the balls. They have anti chafe shorts. Will let you know if I try them!

U see the comments? no one’s having it. They posted the same thing on Twitter and people are pissed there too.😂
