This makes me so, so, so angry. How can any self-respecting woman support this? I truly don't understand.
I don't know. It upsets me a lot. They are fools.
You have the extreme left who are trying to take women's rights away by presenting as "trans movement" and then extreme right trying to take them away by presenting as "family values." It is ducked up.

In my younger years, I was definitely more left in politics, from about 18-22. I am now 28 and would say I am more centre, and a little right. Def not right wing but absolutely not left. Fed up of women being trampled on by the extreme left and extreme right. They are both as awful as each other.
I was definitely the same in my twenties. Because (and this is maybe embarrassing to admit) I believed that being a leftie was simply what good people chose to do.

I think that’s why so many younger women are firmly on the side of the trans activists, chanting TWAW and sex work is work. That’s what good people do, right? When I was in my twenties I would have been there too. Want to join our club, males? Sure, the more the merrier! I’m a good person!

It’s no coincidence that these young women have comparatively little life experience, haven’t had kids etc. Because if there’s an experience which teaches you an awful lot about being female in society, it’s pregnancy, childbirth and mothering (not wishing to disparage or exclude women who are childless by choice AND not by choice obvs). That’s when I discovered radical feminism... thanks, Mumsnet!

I’m 40 in a few months and have ran out of ducks to give. I will not tolerate women being thrown under the bus. Women sharing “be kind” memes with each other whereas men never do. “Be kind” just means “be quiet”. I’ve really had enough.

WTF. They blanked out "female" so it just says "reproductive system."
I feel sick. I literally am writing notes about this to talk to my husband later because I don't think he ~really~ gets it. We are being erased so WHY THE duck should I not be aggressive about it???

What the actual duck. How are people ok with this?? He successfully petitioned to remove the sex parity rule in NY last year which ensured women's fair and equal participation. Now he wins a "female role."

"The new "Female" District Leader has also publicly referred to women as "trash", argued that men can be lesbians, and has claimed to be a "trans lesbian" or "gay woman" himself." Seems like an intelligent, competent and even minded person to elect to office. His use of the phrase "suck my girl fool" really broadcasts his credentials as a strong candidate to represent women.

Why should Emilia have to tuck? Some women have penises, get over it 🙄 It’s a lady fool, that’s all. I’m sure Emilia totally didn’t intend to have it on such prominent display in that tight sweater dress.

Hi am also starting to go from a strict leftist to a center/right political position. I used to drink the Kool-aid a lot and thought that because I was surrounded with these views they must be right, however the red flags just kept growing and growing for me over the years. From subtle comments of "better looking then actual women", being called transphobic because I wouldn't date a transman especially pre-op by someone who turned out to be pan (this is part of the reason why I understand why cotton ceiling is so wrong), seeing the Jessica Yanniv and defunded grape center stories over and over again, being reeducated to change my vocabulary (cis,they), and finally seeing the total abuse JKR got for her clear, logical POV and essay pushed me over the edge. This is getting insane.
I'm not a Trump fan, but don't you agree that his side is the only one that seems to be policing this?

welcome we have snacks, clear logical arguments, legitemate concerns and won't bully you into submission if you disagree with anyone's POV.

I agree. I think it atrocious that women or men who wouldn't date a trans person are called "transphobic."
It is driving nuts that it is acceptable to call biological women "menstruators" or "womxn" now. We are not calling men "ejaculators" or "mxn." It is very loudly coming from the extreme transwomen side.

So lesbians is a girl fool nice? is it the same as a tina? apparently it smells more feminine because "hormones", I like good quality, home grown organic male wicks but maybe I should give a man cat a shot I'll try and not throw up though promise! (yes I am taking the piss as you brits say, pissed off by the leftist biased media indulging this)

yes that's right let's also not forget the blokes who tank and don't properly wash after and it ends up smelling like death over time. It's already touchy saying that you're not touching that when you like fool, seems like lesbians won't have that option cause #transphobic. Let's also not forget the blokes who basically just try and stick it in and are surprised when you don't like that, just lie back and think of england ladies.

^This is how stupid cotton ceiling is. Never had a lesbian call me names or try to guilt me into being with her, they've always been lovely and understood my explanation on what I'm attracted to.

@BostonFernGreen yeah, sorry, I meant Hilary Swank! I keep getting her and Natalie Portman mixed up 🤣

I don’t mind the whole “people who have periods/menstruate” thing, tbh. I like that it includes trans men, some of them still have periods.

I have a friend who is a trans man and he completely passes as a bloke. I can’t imagine him being forced to use women’s toilets but thankfully it isn’t an issue for him because he’s usually fine using men’s and no one is aware that he is biologically female. He is the one who told me all about truscum and tucute, it’s baffling! Basically, my friend is considered truscum, or transmed, because he believes that to be trans, you have to experience gender dysphoria and desire for transition (it isn’t always possible to achieve). I agree with him, tbh. I knew him for a few years before he came out as trans, and I can see that being his true self has helped him loads, psychologically. He had top surgery as he used to have large breasts which was distressing for him. I don’t think he plans to have bottom surgery because the procedure is so complicated. But yeah, he is so much happier and he doesn’t feel like he’s lying to himself anymore, and I am so proud of him. There’s a poster here who has a trans son, you are awesome and I’m sure your son appreciates you so much. ❤
It these people, people that suffer from GD, that do need our support and compassion.
not cross dressers trying to get access to bathrooms.
@bubbletea123 I’m not actually sure that gay men are at the forefront of this (although the likes of Owen Jones, Dr Harrop and TV’s Dr Christian Jensen are particularly nasty examples). If Twitter is anything to go by, the majority of the most vehement TRAs I notice seem to fall into several distinct categories:

1. trans women
2. bearded leftie men (a proportion of these will be gay, of course 😄)
3. women

Group 1 seem to be incel types who love being able to spew forth their misogyny. Group 2 also enjoy having a socially acceptable outlet for their misogyny. 3. Internalised misogyny? That, and female socialisation to “be kind”, “be nice”, and “don’t anger the men because you’ll regret it”.
spot on.

I really didn’t think this was a problem - Live and let live etc but it is.
