Glamour Magazine allows transwoman to redefine feminism

[MrsJamin]

Call yourself a feminist? Our transgender columnist Juno Dawson's here to see if you really pass the test

And calls women who don't "TERFs". Thanks, Glamour and Jo Elvin, thanks a lot.

[ageingrunner]

Yes I've seen this! And threatened anyone on Twitter who pointed out that terf is a slur and used in conjunction with violent threats against women. Apparently has screen grabbed any offending posts as they are 'libellous'
What a nice person

[QueenLaBeefah]

One of the best things I ever did for my mental health was to stop buying women's magazines. I saved money and cheered up - what's not to like?

[FlapsTie]

Oh god everything about that article has just given me the rage.

It's just mansplaining taken to the nth degree. A man who says he's a woman, telling women how to do feminism.

[venusinscorpio]

Libellous against who exactly?

[venusinscorpio]

It's deliberately goady click bait.

[FlapsTie]

The comments are quite heartening.

[Greythornes]

Jo Elvin can fuck right off with this nonsense.

[Mozfan1]

Love how it's essentially an article full of mansplaining- 'come on girlies this is real Feminism, get with times'

[ageingrunner]

Venus libellous against the author of the article because the tweets apparently suggest that they are inciting rape and violence against women obviously bullshit

[Mozfan1]

And YY to the comments, inspired

[OurBlanche]

Oh... do I want to read it... do I need a blood pressure spike...?

[SeekEveryEveryKnownHidingPlace]

This is astounding -

I try to only ever speak for myself but I'm pretty sure, overwhelmingly, all trans people EVER would agree with me when I say a) I JUST NEED A WEE, THAT IS MY ONLY MOTIVE FOR ENTERING A PUBLIC LOO and b) I really really wouldn't feel safe peeing in a men's bathroom

Then why do you think women should feel really really safe when men come to pee in their bathrooms, for fuck's sake?

[Mozfan1]

blanche you may want to grab the smelling salts

[BenLinusatemyhomework]

Is this the Glamour magazine that just gave Bono a "Women of the Year" award? I'm thinking they have a somewhat tenuous grip on the definition of the word Women.

[Mozfan1]

seek so true, how is it fair?! I would t feel comfortable sharing a public toilet with a human that is genetically male.

[venusinscorpio]

I don't think they have a great understanding of libel law.

[OurBlanche]

Thanks, Moz DH is bringing tea...

[Mozfan1]

Hot and sweet following mumsnet rules I hope?!

[msrisotto]

Go ahead and start reading. I had to stop because my eyes rolled up so far they got stuck.

[Mozfan1]

Wouldn't not would t

[SeekEveryEveryKnownHidingPlace]

The comments are very good though!

[venusinscorpio]

I've read an article by that twat before, as their fabulous new columnist. One is quite enough.

[ageingrunner]

To be fair they don't seem to have a great understanding of anything much

[Mozfan1]

So is she basically saying: 'because I'm a trans woman, my feelings trump those of (genetically born) women'?
