They've got us down, now they're poking us with sticks.... :(

[ihavespoken]

Fuck's sake

[ATeamAmy]

No thank you.

[Phobiaphobic]

Bring it on. The more blatant the propaganda, the more people will wake up.

[FunnyTalks]

Oh fuck off.

When TRAs say they are on the "right side of history" they may be correct because history is subjective, told by the powerful, and women are routinely written out of it. We have whole systems, such as name change at marriage, still working against us, quite apart from centuries of bias, oppression and generally not-being-seen-as-fully-human.

This guy is appropriating a term - herstory - and thus devaluing it so that it no longer means anything of use to women. Women, the actual people written out of history - unlike this guy.

Hashtag care with courage?

How about being courageous enough to make an event about women without platforming anyone who's not a woman?

That would be caring.

[zighead]

Unbelievable! I'm so cross. The world has gone mad

[ErrolTheDragon]

Oh ffs. The whole bloody point of coining the word 'herstory' was surely as a counterbalance to the fact that women have been systematically ignored and overlooked in history. And here we have someone doing precisely that right now.

[EricCartmansMagicalUnderpants]

Men have no place to tell the story and experience of women.

[AgathaMystery]

No thank you.

[Teastheword]

". ..exploring boundaries...." More like crossing boundaries!

[Imanidiotiknow]

Do they not see the irony? Exposure like this could give a big boost to a woman's career, and yet a female has been robbed of this opportunity meant to boost her.

It's honestly so fucking depressing.

[PenguindreamsofDraco]

That 5 o clock shadow is so becoming, and not at all intentionally provocative.

[Couchbettato]

You must all be blind, that's clearly a woman! She's got long hair!!!

On the flip side I'm starting to think I might actually be a man because I like things like tractors and dinosaurs.

They mean they are on the right as in the far right, male supremacy

looks like my brother did 20 years ago and shares a name with him too (middle name), so whats the difference between this guy and my bother?

[Rightsraptor]

Just nobody go to his story-telling. Ignoring him might be best.

[Somanysocks]

But that's a bloke, albeit a pretty one. He should go to an event for men I would have thought.

[ethelredonagoodday]

It's just depressing.

[eurochick]

The work focuses on boundaries... you don't say!

[SunniDelite]

Lots of lovely replies though! I think they might get the message! :)

[eurochick]

And now comments have been turned off.

[NitroNine]

@VelvetChairGirl

I’m going to guess that the difference is your brother is a decent enough human not to have ever considered pulling a stunt like this?

[AlsoNotAGirl]

Male supremacy in action

[anon12345anon]

Ridiculous... fucking ridiculous

[MummBRaaarrrTheEverLeaking]

They have been ratioed to fuckery and continue to be so in the quote tweets. We all know how this goes though, block and ignore, then after a while release a statement about their allegiance to the penis, inclusion and how they won't stand for 'transphobia'. Then they'll fuck off for a while and wait till it all goes away.
