blogs.spectator.co.uk/2018/02/can-we-have-an-honest-debate-about-gender/ Spectator article by James Kirkup on the need to have open debate.

I'm still a member but spoke up about this issue publicly recently only to be labelled ignorant, transphobic, oppressive, need educating, etc. Really torn as to whether to jack it all in or not. Feel quite isolated being a lone voice.

I got that Labour party email (they haven't noticed the cancelled DD yet!) I was pretty furious.

Absolute contempt. Contempt for us as a class and contempt for the suffragettes even as they use them to virtue signal.

And - as anyone on the Relationships board will tell you - contempt is the one thing no relationship can withstand.

You know Jennifer James posted the list of the members of the secret squirrels group?

Some of them were whining on Twitter “I’m underage and she naaaaaamed me, I’m going to complaaaaaaain” Hmm

TheGoalIsToStayOutOfTheHole · 08/02/2018 01:05

How dare they be trying to get money for that shit. Seriously. While all of this self ID rubbish is being supported and whilst there is a male person as womans officer and whilst there is a 'secret' facebook group collecting womens details to get them kicked out of the party. Its really like they are purposely trolling us.

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 07/02/2018 22:57

Nice one bewilderness. Can you paint it purple and green and sell it on twitter? Grin

thebewilderness · 07/02/2018 22:45

They won't stop until women are fully represented by men.

Lefty99 · 07/02/2018 22:43

Labour party emailing asking for money to buy this merch "we won't stop until women are fully represented" what a joke

The TERF blocker on Twitter. I'd love to know what the wee ones did to end up on the naughty list.

I was added to it after asking Lily Madigan what they were actually going to do for women besides kicking them out of the party.

I didn't even mention trans, in any way so not sure how/why I got added

I resigned from the LP recently over the AWS stance ,still getting emails from branch.
Today;
Area LP Womens Meeting;
'In light of recent events ,our event is inclusive of all self-identified women and we hope this event is a wonderful opportunity to get to know each other and discuss our ideas'
Yours in sisterhood

If it was any sweeter teeth could fall out

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 07/02/2018 14:23

I'm guessing someone overreacted to 'Mummy? Why is that man wearing a dress?' Grin

CAAKE · 07/02/2018 13:52

Yes, no, the Battersea Brownies are on the twitter TERFBlocker list, not the Labour Party list.

Mumsnut · 07/02/2018 13:41

Maybe a young TIM was turned down for membership?

PidgeonPodge · 07/02/2018 12:18

Dear me! What did the Brownies do?!

Grin

Are we supposed to believe a bunch of perverted grown men are scared and discriminated against by little girls?

AngryAttackKittens · 07/02/2018 12:10

I thought it was the TERF blocker that screenshot was from? Since the Brownies may well have a twitter account. Would be even funnier if it was a particular Brownies branch had been reported to the Labour party though - like, here is a list of small children, please eject them from the party immediately.

Terftastic · 07/02/2018 12:08

Oh sorry - are you talking about the Terf blocker, not the Labour against Transphobia list?

Terftastic · 07/02/2018 12:07

Just - the list is being compiled by a facebook group of Lily Madigans mates - Labour Against Transphobia - a collation of names & social media postings they judge to be "transphobic".

They report them to the Labour Party - it's what got Jennifer James suspended.

It was meant to just be labour party members, but seems they're going full-on witch hunt.

Terftastic · 07/02/2018 12:05

Brownies Grin

Well, those Brown Owls can be right feisty - a bit suffragetty, dare I say it. They've never given the acceptance of boys much consideration afaik.

Justabunchofcunts · 07/02/2018 11:49

Sorry am a bit behind, what list?

Mumsnut · 07/02/2018 11:47

Someone on the Lily M thread has just pointed out that Southg Battersea Brownies have made it onto the list Grin
