Just read that article, brilliant. I am going to include this in my letter to Jacinda Ardern, our Prime Minister. I am sure there are many transgender women who are appalled by the behaviour of a very nasty minority. I wish I had never been alerted to all this idiocy but now I have I am going to fight for common sense. I wish no one harm and would like the same in return. Women and girls are being killed and trafficked in even greater numbers all around the world. This is what our Governments should be focusing on. And transgender people are killed by men not women. I feel mad no doubt about it.

I'm still trying to comment but now their whole site seems to be down, coincidence??

I am far angrier about this issue precisely because I used to be an ally. That's kind of the point. This was a cathartic read.

scepticalwoman · 28/11/2018 19:37

That's a powerful piece. Great reading.

Western civilisations are eating themselves with extreme liberalism.

Frenchfancy · 28/11/2018 17:45

Great piece. I tried to comment but it didn't work and I can't see any other comments.

I particularly liked this bit
We don’t tell anorexics that their body dysmorphia is right and that they are fat.

Definitely not. All these little inconsistencies in extreme liberalism are beginning to add up to a death knell.

Awesome!

Yes. Basically.

Arkengarthdale · 28/11/2018 11:07

Someone send it to LM Grin

ImPreCis · 28/11/2018 10:56

Great piece. It needs to go to all MPs, key university staff, charity directors, fuck it ....... is there anywhere that doesn’t need to see this? Maybe start with WEP and Girlguiding.

MrsScamander · 28/11/2018 10:54

For some reason it won't load for me, can anyone screenshot or copy and paste the text?

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 28/11/2018 10:51

That's a brilliant article. Every so often someone will appear on FWR to tell us that if only we knew the truth, if only we knew some trans people, we would support their position.

But it was the words and actions of TRAs themselves that made the truth so clear to me. I've spent time on genderist Reddit subgroups, I've read screeds all over the interweb, and that's what convinced me that transgender ideology is misogynist, homophobic and narcissistic. NATPALT, obvs, but the ideology is.

Sums it all up really well.

Jaxhog · 28/11/2018 10:18

Spot on.

I hate that I've become a TERF through transgender misogyny.

OrchidInTheSun · 28/11/2018 10:11

That's good

Redshoeblueshoe · 28/11/2018 09:49

Good piece, thanks for posting

Thanks for posting that Nightcloud.

DisrespectfulAdultFemale · 28/11/2018 07:20

Well-argued piece.

HandsOffMyRights · 28/11/2018 07:11

Spot on

But then you said no. I don’t want trans’ spaces, I want yours. I want your vagina, your female spaces, I want you to stop using your words, I want you to stop talking about your body, I want to destroy you in your sports, take your places in public offices, schools, and organizations. I WANT YOUR WOMANHOOD. And you expected me to comply. To hand it over. And you’ve convinced many to do just that.
