The claim is that in the many accounts in the media about the process of coming to understand oneself as a woman, what is NEVER described is the need to do reproductive labour. We're making a claim about your conceptualisation of gender, not about ...

I don't associate anything with 'womanhood' because I think that's a bullshit concept. I do, however, note, that female people end up doing the lions share of the shitwork in this world. And that that has a great deal to do with the structure of ...

TRAs: Anyone can be a woman and it has literally no meaning at all (although it does seem to involve a lot of performing femininity even tho apparently we will totally deny that when you point it out) except if you do not recognise us as women you ...

I'm generally of the opinion that people dismantling the world should have a really good account of how it actually works first. Seriously, it's like watching a bunch of toddlers trying to fix an internal combustion engine. https://t.co/KHyCD1...

No, a TRA is someone who thinks a man or a woman is defined only by gender identity, that gender identity should trump biological sex in all circumstances, and claims that anyone asserting the importance of sex is trying to kill them/legislate them ...

No, what is ridiculous is that you people think that gender is just about playing dress up and nothing to do with the roles, behaviours and values that enforce the exploitation and oppression of women. You have NO. THEORY. OF. PATRIARCHY. NONE. ...

I dunno, maybe ask Julie Bindel. Because many women you claim are just making scapegoats and don't ever challenge male power have spent their entire lives making an exemplary job of doing exactly that. What have you done to challenge male power ...

I think you can think its bad form to wish death on an old lady without being an ardent monarchist. And we're not crowing in defence of the queen. We're crowing because Lavery is a weapons grade wazzock and it's HILARIOUS. https://t.co/rME7Lo...

British feminism is not actually breaking down. Unless by that you mean, as Roarie suggests, 'doing the job of centring males.' The women's movement for the class interests of women is in a more thriving state than it has been for decades. Thanks to ...

Glad to know that the legions of women who are not having this bullshit have been determined to be a rhetorical flourish. Really great defence of the claim that you're not erasing women. Well fucking played. https://t.co/sJia4H...

Actually, males doing any form of feminine coded care work is a far more significant challenge to the material oppression of women that males wearing feminine coding clothing. You concept of gender is so fucking superficial. https://t.co/O6ch6z...

Turns out dude whose been mansplaining the sex/gender distinction to feminist women while completely failing to grasp the difference between sex and gender roles doesn't actually like it when he meets non-compliant women. Shocked I tell you. ...

"If we can’t have knowledge about material reality independent of social or linguistic confabulations, i.e., some variety of group mediated idealism, why bother whether the science is right at all?" Boom. https://t.co/UW0QoH...

RT @runthinkwrite: The @EthicsInSPORT @EallianceSport paper went up and then came down (and I have a copy). It was - as LH says - egregious and slanderous. There are academics who associate themselves with these organisations, Profs Kerr, Demers and ...

RT @oliverburkeman: @bindelj @HJoyceGender Logic puzzle: if you're both fascists and therefore any platform that platforms you is a platform that platforms fascists, and Lavery backed out of debate #1 to avoid enriching a fascist platform, how can ...
