Suppose it's no great shock that Twitter- run by Silicon Valley males- lacks any insight or sympathy into womens rights.

No one has yet managed to explain to me what motivates a trans man to get pregnant, give birth and “chestfeed”. If your dysphoria is so severe you need to transition, what possesses you to do the most fundamentally female thing imaginable?
But, most crucially, how many trans men choose to get pregnant year on year? I’m guessing the numbers in the UK are absolutely tiny. More than ten people per year? Or less?
Why on EARTH does the NHS feel the need to kowtow to such an inordinately small number of people?
EDIT: I’ve just realised that this document was produced by an NHS trust in Brighton. LOL... I get it now.
Omg!! Glad I got in there and made a donation in time
That is very dodgey. They seem to wield a hell of a lot of power. Get them out of schools asap!!! Jesus Christ

The power and money behind the trans agenda is staggering. So much for the most oppressed minority in the world ever...
Guys I’m really freaked out.
That is SO shady.
Really scary. And proves our worst fears
Proof if proof were needed that this is a men’s rights movement.
does the same apply for prostate cancer then? we can’t say that’s a men’s disease anymore because women might get it?! LOL for gods sakeSaw this shared online. Lol. duck off.
It’s Time for the Endometriosis Community to Drop Gendered Language — The Endometriosis Network Canada
“Hey Ladies...” “Endo Sisters…” “Question for you gals…” Hands up if you’ve started or participated in a conversation in an online support group with one of those phrases. While the intent may not be to make others feel excluded, words can and do have the ability to exclude.endometriosisnetwork.com
The world has actually gone mad.
No, it never applies to any men’s things. Funny, that.
That was a really great video. I think she did a great job of breaking down language and cultural codes. She is spot on that the application of “trans women want to be treated as women” is actually just more prescribing of gender roles and this gendering is harmful. I fully agree with her on this point:-
I do not know how to treat someone as though I believe they have a vulva instead of believing they have a pen.
Chest feeding? Oh duck off. 
oh I saw that, she tweeted that she raised 48k pounds and it was taken down by the site but she wont give up

I am a huge Taylor fan and am SO disappointed she is supporting this extreme movement (The Equality Act that she is fighting for is dangerous and will allow all we have discussed in the USA).
This upsets me a lot as a bio woman.
I've been doing my research the past few days and much of this movement upsets me and it is disappointing that Taylor is supporting it. Has she even researched the erasure of women that is happening because of it?
- An Endometriosis charity announced they should no longer use "gendered language." No longer saying women in regards to endo. WTF. Notice this isn't happening to men?? They're not saying the prostate cancer community should drop gendered language. In fact, a cancer charity in the UK when talking about pap smears said it will not say "women" with a cervix, instead "everybody." Yet, for their prostate cancer campaigns, they still referred to it as a "male/men" cancer.
- At doctor's offices on posters for the "female reproductive system" they now blank out the word "female" so it just says "reproductive system." They are not doing this to men's posters.
- The Scottish government is trying to pass a self-id law. When someone currently wants to transition, they need a medical/psyc examination.
With this new bill, there would be no evaluation. They could just go online and fill in a form to change their gender/sex on their ID. They want to lower the age from 18-16.
- Civil service in the UK says they are now avoiding using the word "women" when referring to "menstruating." It is now acceptable to refer to women as "menstruaters" instead of gender. We are not referring to men as "ejaculators."
- Women are scared to speak out because we are labeled transphobic or a TERF. We are wanting to protect our laws and rights that we fought for. They are literally being erased to appease a group of people who want to be recognized as "women" but don't support our rights.... How does that make any sense? Now they also say it isn't just women that get pregnant, men can too. In fact, I read that now nurses are calling "breastfeeding" "chestfeeding" as breast is not inclusive. WTF.
I read this earlier (maybe a repeat for some): There is a word for a situation where women talking about female bodies is considered impermissibly antisocial, where describing the consequences of sexism for women is systematically impeded, where resources for women are redistributed to male users while resources for men are left in male hands, and where “male” and “female” are rigidly associated with masculinity and femininity. That word is not “progressive”, “liberal” or any of the other terms usually associated with trans activism. The word is misogyny. Trans rights should not come at the cost of women’s fragile gains.
I apologise for my rant but, I really struggle to accept Taylor supporting this extreme movement. Would she actually be OKAY with any of the above?? Why is she SO supportive of the radical trans movement? To gain new fans? To be "woke"? Much of what I listed above, I have said already on here but I want to group it all together to show how radical this movement is in the erasure of women.

Graham Linehan has posted on Mumsnet to explain what’s happened: https://tattle.life/threads/19920/
It’s no coincidence that trans women are rather over-represented in the IT and tech industries.
No, it doesn't, in fact, when talking about Cervical cancer, Cancer Research said: "cervical screening is used for everyone with a cervix." BUT for prostate cancer, they addressed "men" instead of "everyone."

Too often, gender neutrality is accomplished by neutralising services or analyses centred on women, writes Sarah Ditum, a journalist

This is a brilliant video by Graham Lineham - articulates a lot of my concerns.
Worth a watch xx

I’ve always been very liberal about the trans thing but when I saw the abuse against lesbians for not wanting to date pre-op transexual women I just thought “hang on a sec” and did a bit of research. I thought at times Glinner could be a bit OTT/abusive but I thought he was mostly talking perfect sense. On a side note just seen this, obvs they’ll use this as a stick to beat him with:

You see this is where I fail - I clearly am not a nice person because I really, REALLY don’t give a duck if someone labels me a TERF or a transphobic. My legitimately female a gives no people.
