''100 years on since the first women got the vote, there are still inequalities in the feminist movement. Why are some feminists still failing transwomen?

The evidence is there if you look for it – Transphobic leaflets being given out in the safe zone at Labour annual conference; prominent party feminists suggesting violence against transwomen; someone being kicked out of a Labour Women’s Network party for harassing a teenage trans woman; fundraisers being started to try and legally challenge Labours trans-inclusive policies; transwomen being excluded from Labour run women’s events by a women’s officer. The list goes on.

Most state their actions aren’t transphobic at all, but they are merely seeking the protection of women’s spaces. Some go further, suggesting transwomen are men’s right activists working purposely to erode women’s hard won protects. They commonly misgender people like me as a means to belittle our experiences and score social media points. And so I think its fair we question how much authority they have as cis-women to decide whether they are being transphobic.''

It continues in this vein.

Get a job lily! You’re not a teenager anymore

It's a bit low to bring family arguments into social media.

DuMondeB · 08/10/2019 19:50

Sounds like someone’s hormones are coming from the black market. NHS prescriptions/private prescriptions from UK gender services generally cover 3 months and cost far less that £300 (a blocker and a hormone for 3 months costs the same as everything else prescribed by the NHS, 2x £9 = £18).

85Yorkshire · 08/10/2019 19:41

Claiming today that mum's been round and taken away their hormones. .will cost £300 to replace. Can mum do this surely Lily is an adult

dillydallyXX · 08/10/2019 19:40

And still begging too. A nonsensical story about their mother taking away their hormones, which conveniently allows them to indirectly beg for money through their gofundme/paypal account.

In previous outbursts Madigan has repeatedly said they take no homones and has no intention of doing so, because "I am already a woman and was born one".

Hopefully Madigan WILL peak her. I don't know how Madigan gets away with treating Labour women this way.

SirVixofVixHall · 08/10/2019 19:17

LM will be 22 in January, getting on a bit to produce such puerile drivel .

ScrimshawTheSecond · 08/10/2019 16:12

Madigan's saying Jess Philips is a terf?

Birdsfoottrefoil · 08/10/2019 16:03

Well I spectacularly missed the fact that there were 19 pages to this thread.

100 years on since the first women got the vote, there are still inequalities in the feminist movement. Why are some feminists still failing Transwomen?

100 years on since the vote ceased to be the preserve of people
my sex... why are some feminist still failing men?

Qcng · 08/10/2019 15:49

What would LM know about women's "bodily autonomy"? What a creep.

dillydallyXX · 08/10/2019 15:47

18 months later, and it's clear some people will never change. I despair.

Thank you for the screenshot CAAKE! I looked over their twitter account (as you do) lots of equality stuff Grin and a distinct lack of TERFiness, unless you count equality itself, natch.

That said, I doubt it's actually a women who set that account up - more likely to be someone in Lily's circle who secretly hates them and is dicking with them (I bet there is more than one). Snowflakes in those kind of circles are always creating drama for the craic.

Yes this is possble too.

I can see it being Lily though to make out he is being threatened by all of those nasty TERFS. The reason I think this is possible, is because they cropped out the name of who it was. If it was an actual random threat, they would not have done that as they would want the person responsible to get a lot of backlash for it.

There is absolutely no way a feminist wrote it. No way at all. And surely most people will come to this conclusion. Apart from the transcult of course.

Ereshkigal · 08/02/2018 00:35

I can't see many women saying bleed from the 'genitals'.

No. I'm wondering if this is all a double bluff to get people wondering and talking about LM. He couldn't be so stupid to call a throwaway sock account Lilyburner in earnest, surely.

AssignedPuuurfectAtBirth · 07/02/2018 22:34

Indeed Datun. If I found myself 'bleeding from the genitals', I'd make my way to A&E

Datun · 07/02/2018 21:27

I can't see many women saying bleed from the 'genitals'.

Sounds like the sort of barracking/piss taking that school kids say.

Genitals generally refer to the external characteristics.

Most women, if they want to make a point about being a woman, would say menstruation or womb.

Ereshkigal · 07/02/2018 21:27

I love that he wrote "women's clothing" in the next tweet. Does he think we would've forgotten Grin

NataliaOsipova · 07/02/2018 21:25

And Brownies wear brown shirts like the fascists in Germany back in the day

That's a bloody good point.....

AngryAttackKittens · 07/02/2018 21:24

I'm kind of looking forward to the epic showdowns as the trans narcissists gradually turn on each other. Please let it happen live on Twitter!

Yes. I doubt Lily is the only narcissist in the village.

Popchyk · 07/02/2018 21:13

All you folks saying BATTER-sea.

That is a threat of violence right there. Don't think we don't see it.

And Brownies wear brown shirts like the fascists in Germany back in the day. I've seen Schindler's List therefore I know all about it.

No wonder they were blocked.

NataliaOsipova · 07/02/2018 20:47

Maybe the TERF BLOCKER should be renamed the BATTERSEA BROWNIE BLOCKER

Grin Dangerous people, those Brownies.....
