4th if Anna and Sarah were TRUELY allies of women then they would seek to address the concerns that women are expressing in reasoned tones, over and over and over again in varies forums
Instead, they held an emergency meeting (this is before my poutburst) and decided the beast course of action was not to respond to women
How can you consider that approach to be the action of people that understand women, align with women, want to advocate for women????
Think of it as a personal relationship. Your lover or friend is expected to support and care for you. The person is acting in a way that you feel is not in your best interests. You attempt to start a conversation with your friend/lover to discuss this. They totally blank you and refuse to acknowledge that you even spoke
How do yuou feel about that person? Are they your friend?
Taking the analogy further...you get frustrated that you are being silenced and your concerns ignored and have a short aggressive outburst
NOW that person is listening to you. Telling everyone how violent and scary you are. Using this as an excuse for never having to listen to you again...a reason noone should take your opinion seriously...
How do you feel about that person now? That's an abusive narcissist personality type

They know you aren't threatening them. Your post was clearly making a point about the difference between criticism and concern versus threatening and harassment. The latter is what women are subjected to every day by trans activists. The former is what Lee and Noble have been busy deleting and dismissing as 'bigotry'. They've chosen to misrepresent posts here and elsewhere in order to play act like they believe a bunch of women posting on mumsnet are actually any sort of physical threat to them, two good sized males with plenty of media backing - it's farcical, we all know it is.

4th - so why wouldn't you support a man in the role of NUS Womans Officer ?
If having experience is not relevant to the role, then what is the difference between a trans-woman and a man in fighting for the Annafesto?
