RT @JustDad44: We'll name this ' a pregnant pause'. https://t.co/hXgW27...
RT @cache_pas: 150 million women & girls are raped globally a year. The majority go unreported; victims feel unable to speak out. So when people cast doubt on survivors, as some did recently, we need to talk about how we perpetuate rape culture ...
Don't you love it when men tell women what their political interests are? Especially when they are in the habit of loudly ignoring women when they disagree. https://t.co/I9ufcN...
RT @ShonaghDillon: My god this is brilliant. @BBCWomansHour returns to its former glory. @Emmabarnett is fabulous. This is the program I remember, the one my Mum got me into all those years ago. A great listen. “Facts don’t need to be balanced” 🔥 ...
RT @teaforpterosaur: https://t.co/E3vW0W... Excited that Ash has discovered little-known poet Siegfried Sassoon, bringing a heretofore unconsidered perspective to the TL for those of us who believed that trench warfare was very fun and sexy actually ...
You think ppl who characterise the BBC as 'bad guys' b/c they are starting to recognise the views of those who think sex matters might have impacted editorial policy, and that having a tantrum indicates exactly the internal mechanisms of ideological ...
I think this is a really important point. It is true that living things at least are characterised by the fact that they *change.* That they are *processes.* What is lost in the TRA approach to this, is, to be Aristotelian about it, living things ...
RT @rebelyarns: In this fascinating story, a female aristocrat lived as a boy and then as a man, took hormones and got a changed birth certificate, but still had to cheat in a court-ordered medical examination to beat the patriarchal rule of ...
This is the heart of it. Trying to convince us you are not a threat to us by repeatedly asserting your contempt for our boundaries and demonising us for having them was never going to work. Put the blue and pink baseball bats down eh? ...
We all know the BBC's editorial policy has been compromised by its relationship with Stonewall and its capture by gender identity ideology. I do, however, very much appreciate their journalists holding their own feet to the fire like this. Well done ...
WUT???? https://t.co/HtQOga... https://t.co/9zFYCQ...
I dunno, maybe people could respect other people's boundaries. CRAZY THOUGHT. https://t.co/j7yDBy...
RT @Emmabarnett: The first interview with a top BBC executive since the corporation decided to pull out of Stonewall. Only on @BBCWomansHour with me at 10am https://t.co/98v7rR...
The 'heresy' took off here because we're not well disposed to theocratic authoritarianism. https://t.co/qhAaNg...
RT @RadFem_KatH: I wrote this as one of the lesbians interviewed for the @BBCNews article on the cotton ceiling. It was tough to write. https://t.co/GiDL1I...
RT @Lachlan_Edi: Whereas the most bizarre narrative I've encountered is that of the pocket lining Stonewall apologists pretending that a whole bunch of veteran lesbian and gay rights campaigners are reliant on the same arguments as a bunch of right ...
RT @AlteredSquid: This sort of thing is why i enjoy laughing at men so much. We really are very silly creatures. https://t.co/yb8NSx...
RT @rebelyarns: Really important and insightful case study. "When gender identity is taken as empirical fact, the metaphor becomes concretized and we lose the ability to relate to our inner world in a symbolic way." https://t.co/d6Qdwg...
RT @Mocha_Soul: It's not enough that migrant women are detained for no other reason than having had to flee their own countries for whatever reason. Do we really have to be subjected to #maleviolence? Women ‘at risk’ in mixed immigration centre | ...
The responses when someone basically on their side tries to tell the TRAs that their strategy is now a clusterfuck are quite something. https://t.co/H5vIOM...
Boom. https://t.co/7eYw3r...
The fact that, as Michael notes, trying to get people cancelled often backfires, massively in this case, is not evidence that no one has tried to cancel someone, or that cancel culture is not a thing. Is 'you're still alive' irrefutable proof that no ...

RT @StopDARVO: The feminist intellectual tradition details how men have constructed the “social category” of woman to romanticize their own exploitation of our female bodies, & whether you fail to understand this basic point or are lying, you are ...
