Women Talk Back! Statement on the Bristol SU
Attendees Experiences of Women Talk Back!
Institutional threats by @Bristol_SU featured in Sunday's @Telegraph: "Women Talk Back host women-only meetings at @BristolUni to discuss male violence against females, and argued presence of men could make attendees fearful to speak out." ...
RT @ewansomerville: The society's president @8RosarioSanchez, now banned from Bristol Students' Union senior roles for 2yrs, has written to Edu Sec Gavin Williamson urging action under new free speech powers. "People think they have a right to censor ...

RT @SVPhillimore: Does Bristol University understand the Equality Act? Campus feminists censured for excluding trans students https://t.co/Y1pa35...
RT @SVPhillimore: This is not a free speech issue. The University is in breach of its statutory obligations under the Equality Act. Women have a right to single sex spaces when dealing with rape and sexual assault.
RT @Upcycle2u: WoW!! Bristol University have you no shame?? Three years of persecution leading to the offer of a ‘indoctrination’ course!! This is so triggering @BristolUni https://t.co/Wiwmr1...
RT @Ashworth101: “The Student Union ordered: Mandatory diversity training so we accept males into our women-only space.” This is utterly disgraceful. https://t.co/YFG4Hi...
RT @TerryStock8: While TRA male students are forcing themselves into women’s spaces and seeking sanctions against female students, wtf are the decent men of @BristolUni doing? Get off the sofa and support these women. 😡 #BristolUniMen ...
RT @TerryStock8: @GavinWilliamson this cannot be right. Action please. Single-sex spaces are important. #SexNotGender @SexMattersOrg @CforWomenUK @KemiBadenoch https://t.co/0i2MPu...
RT @ellietheskeptic: “We also want to stress that no amount of emotional manipulation, blackmail or institutional coercion justifies the erosion of women’s boundaries around ourselves and without our consent...” This is scary. Something must be done ...
RT @ElliGower8: “All who self define as women, including (if they wish) those with complex gender identities that include 'woman', and those who experience oppression as women.” Yet men remain defined as men. Interesting. https://t.co/BMghkp...
RT @LouiseWluddite: This stinks. "The University of Bristol and the Bristol SU have both created an institutional climate in which male students feel entitled to force themselves into women’s spaces where they are not allowed." https://t.co/OHoVvW...
RT @OnlyObjectivity: Really hoping @GavinWilliamson takes note and acts - this is EXACTLY the kind of scenario that the new academic Freedom of Speech powers were designed to tackle. @DofE https://t.co/7wQ4If...
RT @maryBCHR: @ripx4nutmeg There needs to be a strong leadership line from the NUS and university on this. To censure women for wanting single-sex spaces for discussion about their own safety is an abomination. It exemplifies the narcissistic ...
RT @MatthewGreenf11: "The University of Bristol and the Bristol SU have both created an institutional climate in which male students feel entitled to force themselves into women’s spaces where they are not allowed..to seek punishment and sanctions ...
RT @michael_taggart: Another case of institutions showing contempt for the legal right women have to organise and associate exclusively where rape and sexual assault are concerned. Disagree with the law if you like, but it *is* the law. ...
RT @AJgilkinson: Does @BristolUni hate women? https://t.co/KmPiea...
RT @alishawgriff: @BristolUni is toxic mess. So glad my kids chose to go elsewhere. I’d have serious concerns about their mental well-being. Students treated as cash cows; pastoral care appalling. This is just nasty symptom of their attitude ...
RT @NatashaGrover8: This has really infuriated me - women should be able to form societies at universities which are specifically for women, not anyone who chooses to identify as a women Campus feminists censured for excluding trans students ...
RT @ObjectUK: The law allows for single sex spaces. Why is it being ignored? We OBJECT https://t.co/QEkq26...
RT @thespiralquirk: [Archived: https://t.co/LlMRdZ... How TF these students got the grades to go to Uni is beyond me; they strike me as needing an “arse-from-elbow” diagram. https://t.co/XPf8BP... https://t.co/z6nEUz...
