We note the BBC waited three days to cover this story until they had the Daniel Radcliffe angle to frame it in a suitable way. 'Woman states that sex exists and gets two days of misogynist abuse from TRAs' wouldn't have pleased your Stonewall masters ...

This is total newsspeak. 'There is no attack on women or the meaning of woman, we're just expanding the definition.' It means female. If you include male people in it then it doesn't mean female anymore. Then female people don't have a word. It's not ...
