I'm not surprised by the vitriolic ranting against Posie, in a way it just goes to show how she's getting under the trans rights activist's skin.

I've seen everything from:
POSIE PARKER SECRETLY GOT RID OF A PERSON'S GCSE COURSEWORK!!!!!!
To
SHE'S SO UGLY SHE LOOKS LIKE THATCHER !!!!!!!!!

The daily fail even did a "disrespectful women" slant to an article on her.

www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-6218395/amp/Blogger-billboard-defining-woman-adult-human-female-blasted-Morning-viewers. (If someone could tell me how to do clickly links I'd be grateful, I've even googled it, and still failed)

The heartening thing was the commenters on that post weren't having any of it.

I wish Posie was still here. Flowers for all the personal hate that's being sent her way. Debate her by all means, but its getting so low it's practically below ground.

Meaning of skank

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Skank

Derogatory term for a (usually younger) female, implying trashiness or tackiness, lower-class status, poor hygiene, flakiness, and a scrawny, pockmarked sort of ugliness. May also imply promiscuity, but not necessarily. Can apply to any race, but most commonly used to describe white trash.

Ahem!

Another one skanking for Posie Smile

Molokonono · 30/09/2018 18:13

Honest to Goddess I'd give my last Rolo to be able to wear a pair of red slacks like Posie did last week.

I'm definitely PosiesSkank.

When MN introduced amended guidelines for FWR a few months back, one of them was that they would probably not permit, "I'm Spartacus" threads in the future.

We may have found a substitute for Spartacus: Ahem. I’m PosiesSkank.

No one is a 'demi god' in this shit storm of a scenario.

PosiesSkank · 30/09/2018 17:57

Ahem. I’m PosiesSkank.

I think the beauty of Posie is that she can’t go ‘off message’ because the message is absolutely what she thinks. This isn’t a talking point, or a spin doctor, or an elevator pitch, it’s what she believes.

I think if Posie was trying to convey someone else’s message she might be less good at it.

I find Posie inspiring. So what if I don't agree with everything she says.

She is charismatic, articulate, energised, truthful, intelligent and attractive.

I feel so much better after seeing Posie put the world to rights.

NewWomensMovement · 30/09/2018 16:59

let's not set her up as some kind of perfect demi god.

I don't think she is. I just believe she is in her element on the screen, thinking on the fly. Even if she cocked up in some way by doing something off message I wouldn't give a shit. Who hasn't cocked up?

2BorNot2Bvocal · 30/09/2018 16:56

Interestingly the article has full and clear images of both the billboard and Posie's t-shirt.

Second paragraph is general and not specifically applied to IW!!

BeyondAdultHumanFemale · 30/09/2018 16:54

IW has had much surgery and has a GRC. IW was previously married to a woman and has a child, but iirc is now attracted to men.

It is plausible that someone like so is either old school homosexual transgender who was in denial of sexuality when married, or hetero AGP who has gone to the extreme of needing male attraction/ penetration (sorry, can't really describe it politely!) as part of the paraphilia. Only the individual would know which category they belong to.

Trinity1976 · 30/09/2018 16:48

What's the crack with IW? Is she an old-school transsexual with a GRC?

UpstartCrow · 30/09/2018 16:46

Anyone can report anyone to the police. I'm guessing it was Sue that did so.
When Sue says 'they are regarded in the same category as Britain First,' Sue forgot to say who regards them in that category.
I'm guessing that again, its Sue.

ElfrideSwancourt · 30/09/2018 16:38

I'd love to go to a WPUK meeting, but haven't yet been able to attend any, mainly because of not knowing in advance where they are.

I can't drive very far due to chronic health condition, so am reliant on public transport and that's not really compatible with not knowing where the venue is.
But I really want to stand up and be counted over this.

Have WPUK really been reported to the police? Are women gathering to talk really that scary??

ChrysanthemumsAreMums · 30/09/2018 16:35

Blimey Sue needs to calm down a bit

LadyRochfordsHoickedGusset · 30/09/2018 16:26

I have never had a comment deleted before. I feel like a naughty schoolgirl. No irony intended.

BeyondAdultHumanFemale · 30/09/2018 15:35

Also - a point I will say they DO try their best to accommodate - but due to the venues having to be hidden, accessibility is an issue for Wpuk meetings.

I attended Cardiff, and as the venue cancelled last minute it was moved to a school. With no accessible toilet and very narrow corridors. I managed, but only just.

R0wantrees · 30/09/2018 15:34

that's been reported to the Police Anti-Terrorist Unit (all claims that have been made

It is a genuine worry though isn't it. I own my own business and can't afford to be labelled as a bigot. I want to stand up and be counted, but if my business suffered then my family will suffer.

This.

arranfan · 30/09/2018 15:11

Same with WPUK- Dr Twat and his pals saying how insignificant they are, mocking attendance numbers, whilst also doing everything they can to stop the meeting going ahead.

Given the clandestine way that WPUK has to operate, I wonder how many women think, "I'd like to attend that. But:
i) if it kicked off, I couldn't afford the dental bills/time off work;
ii) I can't afford to travel only to discover that the meeting doesn't go ahead;
iii) I can't afford the childcare to attend the meeting but as per i) I don't want to involve my children in something that could go awry;
iv) what if someone reported me to work and their claim that I attended a meeting of a far-right, extremist, hate-group that's been reported to the Police Anti-Terrorist Unit (all claims that have been made) got me on a disciplinary before HR for inappropriate behaviour etc.".

Bolloxio · 30/09/2018 14:58

It's interesting how the TRAs are claiming that nobody agrees with Posie whilst simultaneously desperately trying to discredit and shut her up. She must be doing something right.

Same with WPUK- Dr Twat and his pals saying how insignificant they are, mocking attendance numbers, whilst also doing everything they can to stop the meeting going ahead.

If nobody cares about what these women have to say, if everybody disagrees with them, why the need to silence them?

Indeed.

AnyFucker · 30/09/2018 14:37

Yep, let's not set her up as some kind of perfect demi god.

The only way is down after that as the pressure to live up to it gets too much
