Yeah because women who are being attacked and having their pants pulled down have nothing to fear right? I'm glad no women ever get murdered.

Do these people ever engage their brains? Are they really so self obsessed that they don't understand that women do get murdered because of what's in their pants?

Is Katelyn Burns the one with the spectacular comb over...?

That's the one!

I was about to post a link to gender trender - so it turns out that the transwoman in question has been accused of assaulting multiple teenage girls.

That article is just Shock

So many bits I could comment on but my favourite bit was the last sentence...

‘This interview has been edited for clarity and length.’

Yep, that interview was completely coherent. Wtf was it like before the edit?

CapnHaddock · 02/02/2018 22:54

Urgh. That article is just dreadful. Women are being erased

QuentinSummers · 02/02/2018 22:53

The TIM who protested sounds charming. Various girls on Twitter saying he abused them when they were teenagers

This seems to regularly happen whenever a TRA gets shouty. If you look into their background, it's often "problematic". Yet we are all supposed to be totes cool with sharing space with them where we might be vulnerable Hmm

So depressed if they have succeeded in shutting Rose up. She has been so fearless and uncompromising. If she's been silenced what hope for the rest of us? (Sorry feeling a bit bleak about it all). How can people not see this is just a particularly clever bit of whataboutery?!?

Thehairthebod · 02/02/2018 22:48

Christ on a roller-coaster, that article. I read it and in my head just heard blah blah blah blah blah.

Seriously, how can people eat up this absolute HORSESHIT?

Sadly, I think the media has been looking for a chance to turn on RM and will use this event to their advantage. Sad

"It hurts. Because when someone pulls down her pants and sees a vagina, she won't be murdered for it. That is not something she fears. That's why she's cis."

Is that actually a real sentence? FFS this is exactly what happens to the class of women everyday, all over the world.

Urrgh, it says that Katelyn Burns lives with her ‘2 young children’ in the bio under that article. Poor fucking kids.

Pawpainting · 02/02/2018 22:33

Just the url of that article is enough to put me off clicking. "Rose McGowan broke down in a transphobic rage last night" ffs. Talk about gaslighting Hmm

CAAKE · 02/02/2018 22:27

An interview here with the TW, Andi - written by another TW, Katelyn Burns. Two men unashamedly and audaciously turning their victimhood up to eleven.

"It hurts. Because when someone pulls down her pants and sees a vagina, she won't be murdered for it. That is not something she fears. That's why she's cis."

When I first saw some comments on these threads refer to trans activism as a men’s rights movement I thought it sounded a bit nuts, but now I see it and I totally get it.

And so it turns out that this shouty man verbally abusing a victim of rape at her book signing is a sexual predator, who would have thought.

CAAKE · 02/02/2018 22:09

The version of the video I posted upthread is up to 2.3 million views. Peaktranstastic indeed.

Lots of women on twitter saying that Andi Dier the TIM in the video sexually assaulted them when they were young teenagers and he was an adult...

A slight credibility fail there.

It was interesting watching that escalate actually - he started with 'why aren't you including transwomen' then went onto criminals in prison and then as he was being hauled out he went for the 'genocide' thing.

How fucking dare he start to heckle like that anyway, even if he thinks she isn't centering trans women enough 🙄 you don't just start shouting at someone like that at their book signing, it's really fucking rude.

Yes, the irony of the 'white' insult as well - it's what they use because they don't actually have any proper arguments.

Fucking PRICK.

GuardianLions · 02/02/2018 21:00

How depressing that the young woman on twitter still felt compelled to use female pronouns when accounting this TIMs male pattern predatory behaviour.

YY

Patodp · 02/02/2018 20:52

lucylou Has she cancelled all future dates?
Because of that? I thought ppl in the room did support her, he was swiftly removed from the premises and she was applauded for her reaction...

Ereshkigal · 02/02/2018 20:52

She needs to stop pandering to these arseholes at all. There is no way you can take the middle ground when they're after you.
