This was posted on a GC FB page earlier this afternoon. Didn't know an awful lot about BW apart from heated exchanges with JV. Apparently all "tXxFs look like men" and more.

Luisa - "utterly ridiculous and incorrect comment about her doing make up videos" - I said I thought that was what she did, you corrected me, I admitted I was "incorrect". Why are you hounding me so though?

Blaire White isn't GC, BW is, according to TRAs, "truscum" (and right-wing truscum at that). The enemy of our enemy is not automatically our friend and all that

Blair White is a right wing , libertarian. She has posted many videos where you could not fit a cigarette paper between her views and the majority of you on matters such as biology is real; trans women are not women; safeguarding of children; drag kids; cotton ceiling; men don't have periods and free speech.

And of course it was White provoked Yaniv into showing off online that he held illegal weapons.

White is actually the sort of trans person you (general you) seem just about capable of tolerating- namely pre- transitioning she was an effeminate, homosexual boy- not the type you diagnose as autogynephile.

Another poster wanted to make it all about Blaire and used a fair comment about the way Blaire behaves on camera to go on the attack

Presumably me? It was in response to the snide comments about Blair's appearance and the utterly ridiculous and incorrect comment about her doing make up videos. Blair is vain, mannered and "performs feminity" - so what? That is her personality- that is who she is.

"Going on the attack"- you mean having a different opinion?

Blair doesn't like feminists. Feminists are just part of the social just warriors set- and frankly having read the comments on the other thread I can understand why she used the dreaded t- word.

Blaire White and GC Mumsnet posters are like a venn diagram with a small overlap. In the overlap is ‘transwomen are biologically male’ ‘J Yaniv is a predator’ and ‘paedos aren’t part of the LGB(TQIA++)’ and don’t trans children’

I think that’s about it, any other suggestions?

Calvin states it, Blaire agrees with it. I've always liked Blaire, and will still watch their videos. But I'm not afraid to see what they are all about and who they are.

There's a part where they clearly indicate that they believe they are male and female, respectively. Blink and you miss it, but it's there. I can't describe it without using a banned phrase.

Another gem from Blaire is that she thinks all t*rfs are t*rfs because a bloke cheated on them with a transwoman. Somewhat reductive and dismissive.

As to the woman they are laughing at in the video. I don't know anything about her, but the misogyny and lesphobia aimed at her (plus pops at her mental health) seems pretty clear. Blaire is commenting and laughing along. Of course Blaire's allowed to do that. We are allowed to comment and judge if we want to.

I'm fairly sympathetic to the idea that any ally will do in the fight to protect women's and children's rights, because the threat is very immediate and apparent.. But I don't think that means you can't look at their views as a whole critically; and also question whether they would happily roll women's rights away too. That would be somewhat hypocritical in light of the pushback against No Debate that is happening on this board at the moment.

And btw, the other thread was a thread about a courageous detransitioner. Another poster wanted to make it all about Blaire and used a fair comment about the way Blaire behaves on camera to go on the attack.

I'll channel my inner Lang and say there are no sacred cows.

I wasn't by posting this intending on a pile-on, at all.

It's actually Calvin Garrah, a transman,
(ie AFAB) who states all t##fs look like men.
There is already a pile-on thread about Blair, do we really need another?
It seems pretty and pointless.

No fan here but this is bullshit.

Acknowledging that bio sex exists is right up there in the "fire is hot" "sky is blue" level of obviousness. It really should come as no surprise that there will be a pretty disparate group of people you agree with on this issue and this one issue only.

For the record, I'm not comfortable with the language used in that fb post.
