Rose McGowan video

Just realised it sounds bad that I don't know her. I suffer with mental health issues and have been avoiding the news for a while because it can lead to me spiralling.

I don't actually know who Rose is or what she has done, but that was good.

But...but...that never happens AngryAttackKittens

Behold my shocked face as yet another MRA in a dress is revealed to be a predator.

Isn't it just!

Oh what a shock

I also think Rose did quite well when faced with such a tirade.

I think basically it means a woman who doesn't centre trans issues.

I 'came out' on Facebook and linked to this article by Stephanie Davies-Arai. I had a few likes/hearts and a couple of people wanting to read up on it more. No horrible messages, thankfully, but maybe they are all thinking bad things about me or don't care enough to comment. Might have had a bit of wine-bestowed courage before I posted, though...god, I wish it wasn't so hard to just talk about stuff.

Yes, it's absurd. I saw a post the other day that said "lmao white feminist doesn't have to mean you're white" which is equally so.

I know, but to see it in real life, it becomes so obviously ridiculous. YOU ARE WHITE TOO, BRO. Very kind of her to call him "sister".

It was laughable to see a white man barking "white" at her as an insult.

They all do. It's the stupid "white feminist" SJW meme. Being a white woman who campaigns for women is a heinous crime.

I can't believe people think that the transwoman was reasonable in this situation??

I suppose at least it means we won't hear any of that 'real women have curves' nonsense anymore... (desperately seeking the silver lining...)

I love that word Mountains!

I say it quietly. But my facebook timeline is full of men telling me how transphobic women are. And I just hide them because I know it would be social suicide to speak up. I have been deadmouthed

Every little thing has to centre transwomen, whilst the mantra 'transwomen are women' means that differentiating between trans and real women is apparently transphobic?

Off-topic, but you know, I am getting sick of not saying 'real women' for fear of being transphobic.

I'm a real woman; a transwoman is a transwoman. I'm sick of having to pretend.

Of course, I cannot say this in my own name, or in public where I could be identified. Censored. The Germans call it 'Mundtod' - dead mouthed.

The message that I’m receiving from this is that we, as women, aren’t even entitled to the time and space to discuss and process our own rapes and assaults. That’s so selfish of us! Our activism and energy must be dedicated 100% of the time to trans issues

Yup, this is the new "what about the men"

The message that I’m receiving from this is that we, as women, aren’t even entitled to the time and space to discuss and process our own rapes and assaults. That’s so selfish of us! Our activism and energy must be dedicated 100% of the time to trans issues. This trans individual saw Rose expending emotional energy on something other than trans issues, and had a hissy fit. We are expected to be the 24/7 emotional babysitters and handmaidens of trans women- and if we don’t comply we will be screamed at and threatened.

Way to go rose. What a complete dick head. Me me me.

Fuck off

I loved her response to "cis" I hate that label too!!!

I applaud you Rose

Hopefully this will mean another wave of peak trans. It's so nakedly obviously a male telling a woman to STFU about her own sexual abuse and issues.

I'm so fucking angry about this. I don't even care if the trans woman who attacked Rose has gender dysmorphia. I don't care anymore! Women come first here.

Love her for this!

It’s so fucking insulting for that trans woman to come ranting in screaming at her to centre transwomen when she’s talking about her own abuse ffs!

It’d be like black trans woman coming in raving at a BLM meeting at some one taking the platform to talk about racist abuse they’d suffered... BUT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR TRANSWOMEN... not in a million years would that happen because racism is a ‘proper’ axis of oppression but rape and sexual assault that women protest about? Nope... we’re just silly feminists ripe for being ssshhhed and usurped from within our own movement..

I really appreciate reading this thread as I've seen so much insane and nasty messages to Rose on her Instagram account and about her on Twitter. I'm currently reading her book and it's really excellent.

I really like Rose. I think she is quite brave to be so outspoken in her industry, when it seems that most celebs toe whichever line is currently fashionable.

I hope she stands strong against the backlash she will get for this. Go Rose.

Good for her! Can't believe she is getting abuse for talking about her own experiences rather than other people's! Wtf?!
