Actually, can we request a change to the title of this thread? I’m not on board with accepting the label of terf, any more that I am with cis. “Gender critical MNer”, “critical thinker” or a “questioning woman” sits better with me.

Oh that's good. That man can write. And he makes a fucking good point too.

When you see the situation written down like that it is completely shocking.

It is a good article. All this debate has introduced me to some good writers who check their sources and put together a good argument and write it well. I now read Janice Turner regularly.

And YES to signing the petition.

That is amazing! It gets right to the heart of it.

Anyone on Twitter might like to post the petition in his thread...

Thank you James.

Very good. I think he’s been hanging around in here 👍🏼😀

I was just coming to post about it.

Thank you, James.

I’m leaving the petition here too, in case people come via his article to here:
