Dr Adrian Harrop, who the funk does he think he is?

He’s going to stop tweeting about it because he feels so bullied!!
Classic DARVO.
Please don’t stop Adrian, every time you tweet 10 more women hit peak trans.

I expect he's using a snowflake block list for those who don't like to be exposed to the opinions of people they disagree with.

I've also been blocked by him and I'm only just learning how to Twitter so haven't made any tweets, just liked and retweeted some gender-critical stuff.

More likely he's trying to minimise the damage he's done by making it harder to see his tweets. Or he thinks it's clever and funny to block people. I'm sure he realises that blocking someone can't stop them reading your tweets and it's very easy to do so. Either with another account or logged out.

He blocked me too. My account is on private. I hadn’t tweeted him, merely liked a tweet questioning whether he’s in the right profession. Seems he doesn’t like the fact that these uppity women don’t agree with him.

Has anyone linked this masterpiece yet?

There are a number of mass (terf) blockers. I think saw somewhere that an option on one of them would block anyone who followed a designated number of accounts which were already on the (terf) block list.

I've been blocked too! No idea why as Ive never interacted with him and I don't post on twitter. It must be on the basis of the company I keep.

I strongly suspect it was liking Nimko's tweets handing him his arse.

I do not think that is necessary.
It is like the seven degrees of separation from Bacon.
You liked something or someone they don't like liked what you liked.
I am blocked by a number of people on twitter that I had never heard of before someone mentioned them here.
I suspect there is a list.

@thebewilderness i dont think i have ever actually interacted wiith the plonker

Congratulations!

Dr Harrop has blocked me. 😂

I'm pleased to see he's had to climb down off his high horse. What a disgrace. Dr Anita Sharma and Nimko Ali showing him up was brilliant.

How dare he. Arrogant git.

These could be the golden years ToeToToe. Let the TRAs have their way and it'll be 50/50 men's and women's names on the plaque with representation of men at 100%.

I couldn't help laughing when I saw a post on that thread from a she/her who refers to terfs as misogynistic bitches 😂

I was talking to a friend the other day - she went to a certain women's college at University - and in her last year (well over 20yrs ago - we're both in our 40's) - the college voted to become mixed sex.

When she returned for a reunion, she was surprised - but not surprised - to read the plaque with the list of names of the presidents.

You guessed it - up till her final year - all women, of course. In the 2 decades since it became mixed sex, about 2 women had been president.

This is why initiatives to bring more women into politics, and single sex spaces, educational programs etc, are so important.

If anyone is on twitter and would like to complain to GMC about his conduct here is a twitter thread compiling peoples details

Interesting. I wonder if that's what precipitated his uncharacteristic apology? Still no apology for telling women they should learn a lesson from death threats though.

Again. The intend is to drive women from the public sphere. The more public the misogynists are about it the sooner the backlash begins. I can only hope it is not too late for the children of this generation.

It's so, so damaging that this is affecting women's political representation.

How many now - from Labour, and now the Greens. And from the Women's Equality Party ffs.

It must be many hundreds now, who have either been suspended, ousted, or just resigned because they cannot abide by the party line.

I agree with Rowantree's comments and I second JeanHatchet's no-party affiliation. I am in a position to just tell the good doctor and his testicle pal to GTFO.

It sucks for other women though who just want to be seen and heard and have opinions who are targeted by this cockwobbler and doxxed, harassed and then ousted from their party.

IMO, women shouldn't belong to political parties cuz they all suck. policy over party any day.

I think as a doctor you have to be very careful of what you put on social media. The GMC has been quite clear about this, particularly when you make clear that you are a doctor on social media and use that to give your opinions clout.
I'm a GP and although I'm on twitter I mainly support people I agree with. I don't go looking for arguments and deliberately piss people off.
I think he isn't doing himself any favours with the approach he is taking. He seems to have no self awareness and for all his inane witterings about women reflecting on the naughty unsubmissive things they have done doesn't seem to reflect on his own style.
He also spends far more time on twitter than any doc I know and needs to develop his real life.

Sadly I am not on twitter, but it would be interesting if someone had posted a similar statement regarding the treatment of transgender individuals within another culture such as this from Indonesia edition.cnn.com/2018/01/29/asia/indonesian-forcibly-shaved-transgender-women-intl/index.htmla transgender person attacked in a developing country with a similar response eg

can we really condem these police as having committed a crime as their culture/society does not recognise the rights of transgender individuals in the same way as we do in the west

I suspect neither Harrop or Jessens cultural relativism would have not survived this scenario and they would quite rightly condemn the situation. Because clearly some things are just wrong, in any context or culture (including, but not limited to FGM, the rape of 12 year old girls and attacks on transgender individuals)

I suspect the reason they would not see both situations as equally unacceptable would be that they obviously care about/can empathise with/see the humanity within one group (transgender identified people) and not the other (young black girls). Just more of the same not seeing women and girls as fully human really.
