Sally Hines getting her a**e handed to her on twitter.

Katvon love it- especially the ‘dear dairy’ because that is actually what she would write. I feel cautious about mocking her in case it’s due to dyslexia (although she has never mentioned having it and it seems the sort of thing she would) but her command of the English language is quite shocking.

Also, I remember Rosa Freedman pointing out that Sally has virtually nothing by way of publications for the REF exercise coming up in 2021. I looked at her profile and it’s true. Maybe one or two pieces but that children’s picture book on gender that she published this year is not something that would count. If I were Leeds, I would be asking why she is not producing higher quality work as a professor. Maybe she’s banking it all on the ‘impact’ of her ‘pregnant men’ study.

Fantastic!!!!!! Kat you should seriously consider having a thread just of these diary entries. 🍷

Carrie do complain- please do. They really do care about being hit where it hurts- in the wallet. At the very least, academics shouldn’t spend their time trolling and goading people.

She has spent her whole career studying this area but she cannot even put her argument forward in coherent terms. I am remembering her radio debate with Kathleen Stock and cringing so hard. If you can’t even explain what your argument is, what is the point? From her tweets, she seems semi-literate, which must make academia a tough place to be, hence the need for sniping and bullying.

If this was a tiny movement of right wing evangelists, a fundraiser to support a woman fired for her views would not have raised a huge amount of cash in just 24 hours. Most people are not on Sally’s side. She might think they are because they don’t dare speak out. She’s wrong- we don’t buy your bullshit, Sally, but we want to keep our jobs. If we agreed with you, we would speak in support of you, because there are no repercussions to doing so. Yet few actually are (and that stupid wishy-washy letter doesn’t count by the way as even the most hardened GC advocates would probably agree with its contents). If you thought you really were in the majority, you wouldn’t bother going on troll-expeditions.

Dairy diary hic of a hic proffyproofy of Bantz and Feelz

Dear dairy

I hate them, they think they are SO clever. Literally everyone knows that to have an event you need to charge sensible prices, you know, to keep the riff raff out (most likely transphobes anyway). I think £27 quid is reasonable charge. I mean who wouldn't pay that to see someone so brave and stunning? Eeeek! Can't wait to see Rachel McKinnon. So much fan girl 😍

Yeah, you haters. I know the definition of "free" and it's "you charged £5.95 per ticket".
In fact you probably, WPUK, hic, PAID all those people to come. With your money from the dark web. Your evil, wicked, right wing money. I know you trade union types, so close to nazis. Can't tell the difference.
Listen to them! They said they made it a cheaper price so everyone could come. DYING. Like you'd want to do that. Hic. Like you'd want ordinary people in a meeting. If you need anymore proof they are MENTAL WITCHES it's this. Lolllllllllllllllll

OMG when all those ordinary people got to that meeting, I bet they were so disappointed to see the semi famous sports people. Cos Laurel Hubbard wasn't there. No. Rachel McKinnon want there. No. They had to put up with Sharon Davis and Daley Thompson. Like who even are they? ROFL. Bet they've never won anything.

Total bantz.

Then the messages from tanni grey somebody. Kelly Holmes? I mean who ARE these people. Got to be totally priviliged. Yeah, check your privilige you white, able bodied, middle class LOSERS. Hic. Burp.
Zzz zzz
Slurp.
Snore.

To be continued.......

Yes. I've long said sports will be what will get mens attention. Sadly it really says a lot, and none of it good, about our society. It is what it is though.

No wonder they have began to lash out. Puuuulllll.

Also, rather than arguing with what people have actually said, she makes giant sweeping accusations about it being right-wing and based on biological essentialism, when most people in the movement are left-wing and are hugely against biological essentialism.

I’m paying fees for two DC to attend that university
I feel like writing an open letter to the VC asking for a refund

She must be really worried about it. The sports thing is a good one for getting people to think about the issue. The women’s football has been huge in the news recently but as some mean individuals pointed out, the US ladies team was beaten by 15 year old boys, which clearly shows that even the very best female sports players cannot compete against average men. So how can it be right that males who have had no hormone treatment are winning girls’ races, solely on the basis that they ‘feel female’ and have long hair? Absolutely fucking insane.

Okay, so now the WPUK sports meeting was "free". Which it wasn't.

And
Sharon Davis, Tanni Grey Thompson, Kelly Holmes and Daley Thompson are "semi famous sports people"

Oh Sally.

2. Trans women are the same sex as cis women"

LOL Listen to top US trans thinker Katelyn. It appears the only difference between an "AFAB" and "AMAB" trans woman is... well yes you've guessed it.

Sally Hines getting her a**e handed to her

Must be another day ending in y.

Is she really a professor?

I realised that despite reading her shit on Twitter I hadn't heard her speak. Just went on YouTube to see if I could find a video of her. She has a channel... with 8 subscribers

"2. Trans women are the same sex as cis women"

Really? Then why the need to distinguish between them?

I try hard to explain to myself why women behave like this because I was once one of them. A transwoman was part of my friendship circle in my twenties and I remember arguing vehemently with dh that I believed she was a woman. He did not. When I try and remember why I thought that, I can say that I absolutely gave not one thought as to the impact that would have on women, it never crossed my mind. So I believe it's about not prioritising women and to be honest not really seeing women as real, as separate to men.

A ram in a tutu is not a ewe . Love it!

Oh lols on that reply. 👆🤣🤣🤣

I like this reply.

Bet sh3 will get great pension as well as well as great salary. All for being well what seems like a word salader or curator of the word salad

Further education. Well. That’s a joke when sally gets paid to work in further education.
A joke

Love kats work here

I love this tweet - it’s exactly what I thought having heard her speak. A strong sense of someone who has learnt a number of long words but doesn’t really know what they mean. All strung together in total gobbledegook

. “you have heard her actually speak you will appreciate that this is a personality only sustainable in a protective academic bubble. Someone so completely a collection of 'right-on' platitudes substituting for intellect would shrivel like a vampire in sunlight in the real world”

Did I say dreams? Nightmares.

Sally Hines wouldn’t be capable of earning a living doing anything else. Seriously, would you hire her?
She needs everyone to believe this guff or she would be on the dole.

Yes I am still traumatised by the birth scene in threads.

I find myself faced by a woman whose (inherited from her father plus acquired) privilege is trumping her sex (oh, the irony) and creating real world paradoxes.

Yes, interesting.

Her father is Barry Hines. I hesitate to link to this, but Kes traumatised me as a teenager, and I never quite forgave him for that.

Threads - well, let's just say, it remains the most traumatising film I have ever seen. I saw it at about 14yrs old, and I have had nuclear war dreams (on and off) ever since then.

He may have been a very skilled writer - but I'm traumatised by his writing.
