By the wonderful Rhona Hotchkiss.

He’s now protected his account but basically said, your transphobic mates telling you things isn’t evidence...

I love Rhona, wonderful woman!

I've come across this guy on Twitter before and have been in conversations he was part of previously. A really condescending dickhead who has no idea about the realities of the debate but wants to tell women they are hateful. The sad thing is, I don't think this incident will give him pause for thought at all. He has never listened to any of the arguments put before him.

The whiney 'your evidence isn't evidence' shite grinds my gears, like 'this never happens' when there's lists & lists of convicted sex offenders. Beautifully taken down by the awesome Rhona but chap is stuffed so far up his own cognitive bias shute he'll never get to see daylight.

So is the person who challenged her going to respond and say ok I got it wrong?

No, of course not they have protected their tweets and gone to ground.

FFS if he was passionate enough to attempt to discredit an academic he surely cares enough about the issue to want clarity of statistics and accuracy of information...

But no, because "transphobic".

I am so sick of people getting away with unjustified claims by dropping a grenade and running for cover.

Bloody women, knowing their stuff and answering back. Double offence.

No, they just steam ahead with their own thoughts as they’re so convinced they are right. It’s so tedious.

It never occurs to these blokes that a woman might actually know what she's talking about.

The former governor of Cornton Vale, Rhona Hotchkiss, says that in her experience it is "always an issue to have trans women in with female prisoners”.

I saw similar on #ExpelMe. About women's toilets. He disabled his account.

When 'material realities' don't go your way.
