I don’t care where you started out on the political spectrum If your kid comes out as trans & you don’t become a rainbow-clad, parade-cheering ally & rock-solid supportive girl/boy/enby dad/mom? You were never a parent at all You were a doll collector furious they didn’t stay in their packaging.

What is the middle ground between "trans people must be eradicated for the good of the nation" and "I don't want to be eradicated"? Half eradicated and half kept for experiments? Been trying to convince these people I'm human for 15 years with no success. Don't break bread with Nazis. No point.

Mary-Ann Stephenson was a long-term anti-trans campaigner, was functionally the Sex Matters selection for Chair of the EHRC, and it was the Labour Party who appointed her to run it - overruling their own Equalities Committee recommendation to refuse her for lack of experience in any other area.

What happened to “I can’t do anything as I’m sticking to the Manifesto”? Funny how they can do all the things that make people’s lives worse, even though they aren’t in the manifeso, but doing anything that would help “Sorry, impossible as it’s not in the manifesto”

In a word, do you believe it would be good or bad to create a cross party consensus that trans people don't deserve rights? That is what voting for transphobic Dems does. Actually seeing a consequence to their bigotry could lead them to change.

I got an email the other morning telling me "your reports are now being muted" for reporting hate speech. Apparently they think that's offensive and it said if I didn't stop reporting I would be suspended for platform manipulation. I was reporting hate speech suggesting trans people should die. 🤷

i am having trouble articulating this but a system that excuses gang rape as a youthful error on behalf of college men with ~ bright futures ~ does so because it is served by producing older men who are comfortable with, even enthusiastic about, torturing people at the system's behest

This is a sobering read about the BBC and #savile - but those who've criticised the excellent current piece about lesbians pressured into sex on the grounds of "it never happens" or "it's only their testimony" should do some self-reflection.

Keeping Bridget Phillipson on as the Minister for Women and Equalities certainly doesn't suggest he cares about trans people. Especially with the RSE guidance and KCSIE coming in at the start of the month. Or is this a "he pulls your pigtails because he likes you" sort of thing?

For me, the hardest thing about stories like the Cornell gang rape case isn’t reading the initial details—although that is hard. What’s even harder is when men online, especially the journalists and pundits, start trying to combat the feminist outrage by purposefully seeding doubt and victim-blaming
