Paris Lees article re: Ldn underground

On Twitter PL is asking for votes in the upcoming Diversity in Media awards. Don't think that article is going to help the campaign to be BEst Journalist much, being a terrible bit of writing

She also describes herself as a queer kid from a council estate, which is an interesting choice of words

It never ceases to amaze me how men do not see.

They just don't. They give themselves away time, after time.

Sometimes I think that feminism really is a higher evolved form of being!

It's quite interesting how Paris has written it.
This is a huge giveaway about what trans ideology actually means:
"Do I think we are going to do away with gender completely? No. Do I think people are going to suddenly stop wearing suits and high heels and having names that are considered to be masculine or feminine and all the rest of it? No. Would I want to live in that world? No. I quite like gender."

So Paris has no inkling that women might not "quite like gender" and the constraints it puts on us. Yes, I wear heels just to signify people should treat me as lesser. I love it

"Perhaps TfL could compromise and start their announcements with Ladies , Gentlemen and Narcissists?"

I think they've nailed it there.

As an aside, why did the article need to be illustrated with a picture where you can clearly see through the top of the woman at the front of the carriage? I'm pretty certain it's only see through because of the flash on the camera, not because she chose to dress that way.

The comments are hilarious. No one buys this crap.

I suspect there are, aside from the obvious, some innate differences between men and women, but society exaggerates these differences through strict roles and rules to the point of caricature – to the detriment of women and sexual minorities in particular but, ultimately, oppressing everyone.

Sneaky, sneaky. Tch.

Society does not exaggerate biological differences. It assigns a role to those differences. Gender.

What is this article is trying to do is to eliminate biological differences, by agreeing that gender is superficial.

We see you.

I used to think that PL could at least write, even if I disagreed with what was being written. But this is just unintelligible bollocks!

Fortunately most of the commentators agree

What a muddled load of horseshit.

First "Gender is dead, kaput" then its "on a spectrum" that in the first few lines. Make up your mind, dear.

That "newspaper" cant really be serious publishing incoherent, rambling nonsense articles like this.

Luckily the comments are overwhelming calling BS on it.

Appearing androgynous is simply not achieveable for me. I have had very short hair, and dressed in jeans and t shirts for a manual job, but being 5'1" with large breasts I will never be mistaken for a man.

This was also the time I experienced the most street harassment, as I often travelled home from work late at night. Being alone and out while men are drunk are much more important risk factors for harassment and violence than appearance in my experience.

Course it is. This is all about how other people treat you, based on your own feelings.

I admit, if you actually can't tell if someone is male or female, then you might have a point. But only up to a point. Women will still need to access reproductive health and all the rights that go with that.

Unless people everywhere are able to completely disguise their sex, having an inner feeling that they are neither male or female won't make the smallest difference to their lives if they're basing it on how others treat them.

The commenters aren't having any of it.

Idly wondering whether a non binary person can get pregnant and making dirty remarks about each other's gender fluid.

Then praising Lees for their accurate reporting of "While it’s easy to automatically dismiss this sort of thing as frivolous nonsense..."

Brilliant.

I suspect Lees was automatically asked to write an article about gender neutrality, despite not understanding that Lees is probably vehemently opposed to it, as it does not fit the trans-narrative.

Hence a load of unintelligible bollocks.

Absolute nonsense. If you're a woman you're a woman. If you're a boy you're a boy. Biology is biology.

Love the comments, heartening to see gender critical views allowed to stand.

Lees is surely taking the piss. 44% recognise that gender is a spectrum? My arse they do. I'd love to see the questions and interviewees that provided that stat.

I was called transphobic for saying this tonight..............by a boy

He's a fucking idiot.

Paris Lee is a massive bellend. I think that may clear things up.

... so why not just say hello everybody?

It's barely a tweet, let alone an article. If it was funny, then fine, but it's just a bit waffling.
