Can't seem to copy and paste this and it is deleted from twitter but here is the full text from Bex Stinson who apparently works as Stonewall, and is a TW.

'If you are straight and CIS you don't have to deal with men forcing you to be sexual for their entertainment. You don't face violence and abuse if you reject their advances or deny them sexual pleasure. Pride matters'.

Only two possible explanations. One, this person's lived experience means they have not idea of what it is like to be an female woman and has never bothered to talk to any female women or read their accounts about this, but still presumes they do know and it is all dandy. Or B, they were addressing men and simply forgot female women actually exist. Because they aren't that important, after all.

Yes, all the people who took issue with it had not grasped the context. Hmm

TheInebriarti it was actually tweeted in relation to that incident.

Seems to have deleted the tweet now, but I saw it at the time.

Head of Inclusion? When in that tweet they apparently forgot that women exist?

The same Bex Stinson who denied being attached to Stonewall, whilst simultaneously being on their website as Head of Inclusion and listed on LinkedIn with the same title?

Was that tweeted before or after the two lesbians were attacked on a bus? Its been all over social media, I can't imagine many woman have missed it.

Ouch. What a giveaway. No idea of the day to day reality that women face.

They clearly know fuck all about women.

ConfusedHmm WTF?!

You could ask MN to edit it for you. But yes, well worth highlighting. I was openmouthed when I saw a screenshot of that earlier. (The tweet's been deleted, apparently.) My money's on B, btw.
