I'm blocked by Shon so can't read her tweets, but someone posted this screenshot

MN doesn’t allow you to live in a little bubble like Twitter does, where you can block anyone who doesn’t agree with you and just amplify your own self love, like a randy budgie pecking a mirror.

😄

“Randy Budgy” would make a great username.

Women need to stand up for women. Shon Faye says to women "enjoy your erasure".

That is not standing up for women in my book.

*Lampage "It is such a pity that there are so many mainstream vile TRAs spouting out hate towards women. Yet claim to be women. It makes no sense"

Couldn't agree more. Women should stand up for eachother.

I'm not saying I agree with what that Shon says or does, nor I do not know what it must feel like to be trans. I just know I'd like to be accepted for being myself without unkind words.
I joined Mumsnet a while back, because of how supportive the majority of people on here are.
I don't know what Shon is going through, but I'm sure there are thousands of people feeling the same. Some of the comments are really harsh to trans people in general and that could be so damaging to people who need someone at a time where they may feel they have nobody. From both sides: hate only fuels hate.

Shon hates that we have a space that's ours, he hates that unlike Facebook and Twitter, Mumsnet is a misogyny free space where women can speak freely, rather than be suspended for anything we say that might upset men like him. This is why Mumsnet is such a valuable space for women and continues to be, men don't get to control us here, and many of them hate that...

I just looked up "Shon Faye Comedy" on Youtube. I must say, the top hits were about as far from comedy as I've ever seen.

If insular poetry and droning political diatribe count as comedy now, then I'm going be watching a lot of Blackadder on Netflix.

I've RTT so I assume you're referring to the vile hate towards women spewed by SF. It is indeed vile.

It is such a pity that there are so many mainstream vile TRAs spouting out hate towards women. Yet claim to be women. It makes no sense^^ Confused

Not coming back to debate LeapingLlama? Shon

LeapingLlama

I know, us highlighting Shon’s hateful agenda really shows how shocking it all is, right?

NoqontroI · 29/03/2018 00:31

Shon is a fucking awful "comedian".

Yeah, gotta agree, not that good. At all.

NoqontroI · 29/03/2018 00:29

Wow. I can't believe there's so much hate on one thread. Vile.

Yeah the 'enjoy the erasure' comment probably helped with that. Doncha think? Also vile. Or do you think that's ok?

Terftastic · 29/03/2018 00:29

LeapingLlama's first post! Mmmmm is it Shon???

You're not very funny, Shon. Take yourself waaaayyyy too seriously.

I don't know about other MNetters, LeapingLlama - but personally, I don't have much love for a person who tells women to "enjoy their erasure".

You know, I pretty much find it misogynistic. Shon Faye spouts misogyny on Twitter.

WichBitchHarpyTerfThatsMe · 29/03/2018 00:26

Yaaawwwn Fay.

LeapingLlama · 29/03/2018 00:24

Wow. I can't believe there's so much hate on one thread. Vile.

SValerious · 29/03/2018 00:19

Did you pull a muscle with that enormous stretch? What a false equivalence. Please show me where disabled degrade able bodied and laugh at their erasure.

That's Jane Fae who seems to think domestic violence can sometimes 'go wrong'.
