It seems that India is a little obsessed and is even now actively encouraging brands to stop advertising with Mumsnet.
A picture of a 17 year old with a semi in a skirt will stop a baby formula brand wanting to be associated apparently Confused twitter.com/IndiaWilloughby/status/987348210858577921?s=20

Waving a piece of paper or shouting “I’m a woman” is not going to buy any leniency from the police or courts.

This was my favorite part. Willoughby shouted "I'm a woman" on CBB which was instrumental in a number of people realizing that they are not.
The physical and legal male who assaulted Maria and was found guilty didn't even need a piece of paper to get leniency. Saying they were transgender was all it took

Masked men surrounding women on the steps so they couldn't enter was IW's idea of supporting the transgender community in Bristol? Good to know IW is pro terrorism.

though it will mean that the victim will have to respect the accused's pronouns, affect which prison they might be housed in if guilty and how the crime is recorded.

This is interesting:

Waving a piece of paper or shouting “I’m a woman” is not going to buy any leniency from the police or courts.

Which assumes all sexual abusers are caught and punished by the law, and negates the very reason women want sex-segregated spaces in the first place - for safety, privacy and dignity.

Saying to a woman "oh, well any sex offender who did assault women or girls by abusing the self ID laws to gain access to female spaces will be punished in court" just won't wash.

Almost as if Gooliana had helped write the article.

Lancelottie · 24/04/2018 17:48

Good grief, have I just skim read an article by a supposed journalist who doesn't know the difference between its and it's?

RefuseToDenounceBiology · 24/04/2018 17:38

Not too concerned about the truth that Pink News.

They're about as legitimate as Veterans for Britain I'd say.

It is a veeeeeeerrrrrryyyyyyy lllllllllllloooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggg rant indeed.

flowersonthepiano · 24/04/2018 17:35

Jeez Hmm they're really having fun with that sarky section 28 comment from a trans supporter aren't they. Not too concerned about the truth that Pink News. What a pile of shit.

auntycartmanslargertesticle · 24/04/2018 17:28

I have never been flashed. I'm trying not to take it personally
I've often thought when I've been flashed though that is not an experience I would have chosen to have had at least some random bloke thinks I'm hot. The bright side and all that.....

RefuseToDenounceBiology · 24/04/2018 17:27

God you are right Terfin it is a bloody call to arms. All because nobody believes India is really a woman.

I suppose the fact that India can only spout this shit in an online site of dubious patronage shows the mainstream have had it with the deranged loony views.

Julia Hartly-Brewer had to give really strict boundaries before letting India onto her show which India totally overstepped. I bet you there are a lot of producers etc wondering if India is worth the grief.

The current attack on trans people is unprecedented.

What attack? Because people disagreeing with you on a discussion board is not an attack.

There is no attack from mumsnet.

Melamin · 24/04/2018 17:20

The current attack on trans people is unprecedented. Any show of support would be greatly appreciated

Is this 'I'm not getting my own way on everything, pile on and troll mumsnet for me'?

ErrolTheDragon · 24/04/2018 17:17

Gah, bolloxed my bolding.

Melamin · 24/04/2018 17:16

Last week was my first ever visit to Mumsnet

Well, that must have been a quick visit before the JHB programme. Not really long enough. You need at least a couple of weeks on here.

Honestly, I thought it was going to be lots of stuff about prams, or family-related matters. A sort of online This Morning minus Phil and Holly Talk about sexist stereotyping Confused

ErrolTheDragon · 24/04/2018 17:16

** Wow, gone the full Godwin.

There’s even a debate about introducing a new trans Section 28, clamping down on educating the public about what transgender is.

No there isn't. It's true what Churchill said: 'A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on. '

Janie143 · 24/04/2018 17:15

And there was no discussion about section 28

Janie143 · 24/04/2018 17:13

Was found guilty of the offence

Bowlofbabelfish · 24/04/2018 17:13

Last week was my first ever visit to Mumsnet. Honestly, I thought it was going to be lots of stuff about prams, or family-related matters. A sort of online This Morning minus Phil and Holly. The reality is more like a Nuremberg Rally. It’s very scary.

I thought it’d all be kittens but by god there are women on there with....(clutches pearls) opinions. and some of them didn’t defer to me.
burn them all!

Seriously, have you ever seen some of the witch trial cases? There’s a particularly horrible one where a man had been trying to have his way with a young woman in the village who had turned him down repeatedly. He used the witch hysteria to have her denounced as a witch and tortured her himself as part of the investigation.

Plus ca change.

Janie143 · 24/04/2018 17:12

We also have an ongoing court case involving a trans women accused of assaulting someone at a demo. The trans woman claims she was acting in self-defence. this written after the perpetrator

RefuseToDenounceBiology · 24/04/2018 17:10

That's what I'm thinking. Blatant defamatory lies.

Such a control freak. We are the crazies if we don't accept India's beliefs as facts.

  1. She doesn't seem to know much about women if she thinks all we talk about is kids and prams.
  2. Nuremberg Rally???? Can't Mumsnet sue?
RefuseToDenounceBiology · 24/04/2018 17:01

Ooh now India has gone full narc rage mode in Prick News

Is this defamatory? I hardly think India has a leg to stand on - slating News of the World.... in a unregistered anti-lesbian propaganda blog like Prick News.Confused
