Gender Critical MNers Gathering Together On Twitter.

Creating this thread for those who want to follow/share/connect/engage with other gender critical MNers on Twitter after the suggestion was made on this thread to group together there to raise awareness of our concerns around the possibility of gender self identity replacing gender reassignment in the uk and trans ideology etc.

If you'd like to take part then please Pm me your Twitter name, over the weekend I will compile a list of MNers Twitter names and PM them back out to everyone on Monday. As it'll be an ongoing thing, I will add other Twitter handles that are sent after Monday and send updated lists via PM. Only your Twitter name will be given to other MNers and I won't share your MN username alongside your Twitter account with anyone.

If you know of any other public Twitter profiles that are openly gender critical such as Magdelan Burns, please feel free to share their Twitter names too and I shall add to the list.

Before you sign up for Twitter you will need an email or phone number for verification.
Understandably, many don't feel safe linking personal phone number or personal emails to gender critical posts so it might be best to create a separate email address for social media sites etc where you want to speak about concerns raised in the other threads. Gmail, outlook, yahoo are three sites off the top of my head that provide free web based email accounts.

When you click on sign up in Twitter it will give the option of signing up with a mobile number as a default but if you scroll down a little, there's an option to "use email instead"

Following this link should take you to the sign up page with the email option already selected.

If you are worried about your IP address being used to locate you, you can use VPN (Virtual Private Network) software/services that camouflage your actual IP and make it look as if you are accessing the Internet from elsewhere. I use an Android app called VPN master which can be downloaded from google play and once installed, it's just a case of opening app and and switching it on and accessing Internet as usual. You can have the VPN running all the time but it can drain battery so I open app and turn back off after using. There should be similar apps for iOS and Windows, I will link them in later post if I get time.

I can create a bunch of email and Twitter accounts for people if they are struggling, but wont be able to do it until Monday. I'll be less active online over the weekend but wanted to get the thread up so that people can start PMing their Twitter names.

I notice that blog writer just wants to pee in peace behind a cubicle door but rejects the option of a third space.

Hey I've been a bit quiet as I've been ill all week and baby is teething.

Will resume tweeting MPs good post cooljazz

I might start following some of the less radical Radfem accounts and retweeting on my personal account.

BeyondUnderthinking · 18/03/2017 09:47

I've just added it to mine too
Great post cooljazz

tigerdriverII · 18/03/2017 09:03

Just changed my Twitter profile to include #21Csuffragette.

Will be using it in retweets (appropriate ones, football related ones not so much Grin)

Great idea all!

Mercy - a total pain methinks?

MercyMyJewels · 16/03/2017 22:03

Who the fuck is this @alwaystheself person?

Usui101 · 16/03/2017 21:54

A relatively new twitter handle: @BiologicalWMN

Worth a read: www.newstatesman.com/politics/feminism/2017/03/there-so-much-fear-moment-meet-midwife-who-wants-change-how-we-give-birth how long before we cannot refer to midwives as midwives but as midpersons?

Yes, you're right, they probably will try to hijack any hashtag Sad

It just seemed easier to imagine adulthumanfemale being used in a trans-ally libfem sense ("transwomen are women, yay #adulthumanfemale") than BiologyMatters, but anything can be trolled.

BeyondUnderthinking · 14/03/2017 15:46

Don't worry drink, I'm happy with my Twitter and mn being linked :)

And not massively concerned if they get linked with my real name either, though I'd prefer not. I have no job to lose because of it Grin

WankingMonkey · 14/03/2017 15:38

Yeah they will take over no matter what you chose. I think BiologyMatters is the best suggestion

EatSpamAmandaLamb · 14/03/2017 15:26

I think the TRAs are going to take over and subvert whichever hashtag we aim for. We could use #babybelcheese and they would still try and take it over as an act of protest.

uniquehornsonly · 14/03/2017 14:36

I'd be a bit concerned that #adulthumanfemale might be taken over by TAs of the type that talk about their "female penis" and so on. If someone thinks "female" has been redefined to include transwomen in the same way that apparently "woman" has been Hmm, then it might not serve our purposes as well as it could.

I'm leaning towards #BiologyMatters now.

Btw, I think it helps to capitalise the B and M - BiologyMatters rather than biologymatters - as it's easier for people to read at a glance and is therefore more likely to catch people's passing interest (and hence more likely to be clicked and shared, etc.).

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 14/03/2017 14:05

beyond I don't think we're putting our twitter names on here! Umless you're not worried about privacy.
