We talk about wanting to exterminate trans people on Mumsnet? WTF? And we attack trans women then say they attacked us??

This person has thousands of followers including Barack Obama, Sophie Walker WEP and Marian Keyes.

Absolutely mad.

Is this person really trans?

I heard it on the gay vine that Avery is a woman pretending to be trans pretending to be a woman.

This type of shit makes my head spin so much I don't know where it will stop...

This whole exchange is shocking

But honestly, I’m sick and tired of perfectly answering your questions asked in bad faith only for you to then move the goalposts or switch topic.

I hope you meet an amazing trans woman and fall in love with her. Bye.

Holy shit do you have any idea how incredibly homophobic you sound?

I know a lot of lesbians who happily do dick

IMO I wouldn’t call them lesbians. Sounds like a bit of biphobia to me. But people ID as they wish.

Congrats on your double dose of homophobia and transphobia. Women with dicks are still women! It’s not hard to understand!

I thought AE was just your average online loon. Didn't know they were a famous one.

NotTerfNorCis · 15/07/2018 23:28

This person is trying to stir up violence against feminists by telling lies about what they believe.

Maria MacLachlan tweeted this reply which is splendidly ironic:

I'm sure you have the hard evidence to back up this rather surprising assertion. Can we see it please? Otherwise those who aren't wearing blinkers are going to have a hard time believing it.

BettyDuMonde · 15/07/2018 23:15

Edison made international news a few years back (probably why the high profile follows).

I suspect I probably signed the petition in support of AE back then.

Now I don’t believe that male born people should ever be housed in the female estate, although I support separate, tailored facilities for TG people.

Edison’s views on prostitution give me the shivers. Pretty sure AE posts on here under a nom de plume - forever getting exasperated when absolutely no one agrees.

Genuinely astonished at gay people being like “no I am only attracted to sex characteristics not some bullshit ‘gender’ nonsense” like wow, we’re gay, we’re meant to be more introspective than this.

See, this is homophobia.

LightofaSilveryMoon · 15/07/2018 23:09

Another man with "issues", then?

UglyCathKidstonBag · 15/07/2018 23:09

I think the technical term for some like this is “liar”.

nauticant · 15/07/2018 23:07

They're a fan of intimidation:

I believe this rational and sensible individual has created a Twitter stir in recent days by saying something along the lines of work not being a moral thing to do. They've certainly garnered a lot of attention from lots of people, which, from their timeline, seems the endgame.

I get very bored with controversialists. Always thinking they have something devastating to say, hugging themselves with glee when they hit 'send tweet' and checking their notifications every two minutes for the attention cookies.

Probably a self-awareness too, so I imagine we'll get a tweet wave at some point. This person will probably think they've really hit the big leagues if both Ben Shapiro and Mumsnet are looking at them...

ToeToToe · 15/07/2018 22:53

This is the same person who has been posting tweets with a distinct whiff of homophobia too - all about how people should be attracted to 'gender identity' not genitals and so forth.

Real nasty gas-lighty crap: "If you think you’re attracted to genitalia rather than gender, I hope you meet and get a crush on an amazing trans person of the gender you’re attracted to so you can finally understand how your sexuality works!"

Followers of Genderism have a great deal in common with Incel MRAs. Had you noticed?

UpstartCrow · 15/07/2018 22:15

Thats how narcissists see the world - if you don't validate them its the same as killing them.
For me it's another good argument to strengthen the laws protecting single sex spaces.
