Gender Critical Greatest Hits

185 replies

FloriDada · 27/07/2018 11:06

I am trying to compile a list of the key highlights of the gender debate, a ‘greatest hits’ if you will of the most succinct and shocking things that have happened over the past few years. The sort of thing that would ‘peak’ people.

It’s for a (creative) project that I can’t say anything about just now.

If you could contribute anything I would be very grateful. The kind of things I have so far are:

Bomb threat against WPUK

Danielle Muscato taking a place in a woman’s shelter and tweeting “some women have penises. If you’re bothered by this you can suck my dick”

Shon Faye “enjoy your erasure”

Lily Madigan comparing race for life with apartheid. Looking for a more up to date Lily abomination but there are so many, any suggestions?

Kimberley Nixon suing Vancouver rape relief

What would you add to the greatest hits?

India Willoughby's outburst on Big Brother.

And IW telling Jenni Murray (I think) that women who don't shave their legs are dirty.

Chris Williamson

"Jeremy Corbyn supporter Chris Williamson, MP for Derby North, said he believed that “Trans women are women”. "

There's probably a few others listed in the article. The original interview was in the Derby Telegraph

Depending on your audience, I would add Dr Stock's piece on academics who are unable to speak out: medium.com/@kathleenstock/anonymised-responses-from-other-academics-to-my-articles-on-sex-gender-and-philosophy-f1cc0db04554

Oh also the Lib Dems LGBT twitter people saying stuff about Ian Huntley - were they saying you shouldn't 'deadname' him?

I’m keen to include Morgane Ogre, what would you say best sums up that specimen of humanity?

I've forgotten the name, but the transgender former Marine (I think) who told Ben Shapiro that if Ben didn't respect pronouns he'd be going home in the back of an ambulance. It's on YouTube.

Venice's clothes swap being shut down.

Transwomen have periods too (see recent MN thread, still active).

CRUK - "people with cervixes".

The four "women" who beat up a man in London recently, described by the police as women as that is how they identified themselves.

ThinkIveFoundYourMarbles · 27/07/2018 11:59

Research into detransitioners being rejected by Bath Spa Uni (James Caspian).

The non-binary person who kicked up a fuss when refused entry to girls' changing room in Topshop (Travis Alabanza).

Poise Parker's interrogation.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 27/07/2018 11:58

The twunt who announced that breast cancer is obviously much worse for a transwomen than a woman. I think that was SF, but one of the experts here will know the source?

There’s the children’s convenor in Dundee who called the lesbians that protested pride cunts, that’s a good one.

So - LM was pushing the "rights" of men to run in a women-only charity race (as someone points out on the thread, men are completely starved of opportunities to run in charity races, aren't they?) and compared RfL to "apartheid". Right...

It might be easier to find a list of public figures who haven't said that

I know sweary but for the project I need ones that have said so openly and in public (ie so it can be fact checked)
