A Gentleman In The Ladies

Re the post by Rowan: The complaint filed by the ADF noted that in July 2016, at the time the Obama administration was pushing schools to open bathrooms to transgender students, the Decatur School District adopted such a policy.

The complaint noted that the schools were warned such a policy could result in harm to students but kept the policy in place anyhow.

But. But. This would never happen!

I've been blocked on twitter by lots of the Mermaid followers who are tweeting this stuff as I'm apparently insufficiently trans-positive. But it does give me pause for thought when the last crowd-funder for WPUK didn't raise anything like that amount.

It's usually a good idea to follow the money.

9/10/18 reported case in US:
'Federal Government Targets Transgender Policy After 5-Year-Old Gets Sexually Assaulted'
(extract)
A Georgia school’s transgender bathroom policy is being examined by the U.S. Department of Education as it investigates the sexual assault of a 5-year-old girl in a school bathroom.

The Alliance Defending Freedom filed a complaint about the incident on behalf of the girl’s parent, The Associated Press reported.

The conservative group alleges that last November, a “male student who identified as gender fluid” assaulted the girl at Oakhurst Elementary School in Decatur, Georgia.

Education Department spokesman Nathan Bailey confirmed the department’s Office of Civil Rights is involved.

“The investigation focuses on the school’s response to a report of sexual assault and the examination of any and all factors that may have contributed to a hostile environment,” Bailey said." (continues)

Its a really serious incident with huge implications.
I haven't seen a follow-up in the paper and did wonder if it had been covered on other loca or Scottish national news.

R0wantrees fuck I wasn't aware of that and that's my Asda! That Courier article is the only thing that could even be described as coverage in a local paper - and at that it's not "the Dunfermline paper", so most locals will be completely unaware that it happened.

@jean can I share your blog? I'm going to get ripped to shreds but...

Sorry @jean

Sorry, I didn't mean to upset anyone, I'm REALLY baffled by the whole trans thing and trying my very best to get my head around it. @bernard I don't use Twitter, never got my head around it either!
I'm alarmed that there are people who will believe anything they are told in the guise of political correctness.
I'm firmly in the ' women are adult human females' camp.

I wonder how they keep track of all the lies they tell. Maybe there's an Excel spreadsheet?

But so what if it did cost £45,000? I also doubt that, but it's essentially men telling us what to spend our money on. How much did Bergdorf's face cost? Could've spent that on refuges, food banks too. Jean - brilliant work, where would we be without you?

Haven't had a chance to read your article yet, Jean, but I was heartened to see this being re-tweeted on my work Twitter timeline, which has a few mainstream feminist follows but nothing overtly GC.

It's the latest in a series of Twitter mentions and retweets which I have seen in the last couple of weeks, the message does seem to be leaking out into the mainstream :)

Yes, given how many lesbians, transexuals and bog standard lefty het women are supporting FPFW it's quite a stretch to try and get people to believe it's all a vast right wing conspiracy to keep GNC people down.

A thing has popped up on my FB page this morning about the advert in the metro. They're suggesting that the fair play for women campaign is being funded by fundamental christians from America. I'm alarmed

I've seen that too. I didn't find it alarming. Its obviously orchestrated and the TRAs must be rattled to suggest a load of left voting British women are being funded by American far right groups. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence will spot that as extremely unlikely and therefore probably a bollocks smear campaign.
It's a backlash, it shows the tide is turning

She said she tries not to go at school now.

In addition to all the other issues this is really not good for anyone's health. All the girls will be getting super woke urinary tract infections.

The toilet thing is annoying.
They secondary school my dd goes to has unisex toilets that open to the corridor, I asked her about it, she hates it. She hates that she can hear people walking past, she thinks they can hear her. She said she tries not to go at school now.
I don't know why this is happening, using the loo is a private experience. It's PC gorn mad, that's what it is

Well actually...

Dhala anyone can suggest anything g. For instance I could suggest that the trans movement is funded by a number of wealthy white men, one in particular from the USA too. Would that make it true?

and I had to revise that post three times as being honest about how I feel about those people on twitter would certainly be 'not in the spirit'

also, why are you posting on Jeans thread about the FPFW campaign?

unless you're one of the people who is throwing accusations around on twitter about the FPFW funding being linked to Jean's campaign?

what are you alarmed Dhalandchips? That's bollocks

the FPFW campaign was funded with fivers and tenners from ordinary women like me

lolol

Because British women don't have any dollars, man.

All the money we get from sending our kids up chimneys goes on chewing tobacco and straw for our bedding.
