Can't see a thread about this, which has enraged me this morning - Fox bragging (on a JKR tweet to a child!) about beating up women

@TheProdigalKittensReturn

I'm not grateful. I want shit like that to stand so that there's no way for TRAs to hide what's really happening.
Sorry I quoted the wrong quote. This is the one I was replying to.

@AmericanSlang

Well as we know Tara is also a big fan of hitting women considerably smaller than themselves
I agree. The more people that see what is really going on the better. This is just appalling.

I guess I meant that we should be grateful Twitter at least has some morals left, some kind of bar exists however low :/ the tweet has been screenshotted and archived, for next time everyone says that trans women in womens sport causes no harm to women

Fallon Fox has been a "here" of Tara Wolf's since before Tara started martial arts.

"Rhonda Rousey to break people’s arms with her armbars”, she shrugs. “But when Fallon Fox cracked an opponent’s skull, that was a huge issue. No one cared when Fallon was an amateur or if she lost, it was only after she became pro that it was controversial”

The tweet has been removed for violating Twitter's rules, for which we should no doubt be grateful

That is sickening. The violence and the fact this person is boasting about hurting women. It's despicable.

TheAdventuresoftheWishingChair · 17/06/2020 13:48

Just when you think you can't be more shocked.

This has sickened me. We live in a society where a man feels its perfectly acceptable to write this because knows there will be no repercussions whatsoever.

Prodigal it is so fucking obvious, but we're all supposed to pretend we don't see it

Cast your mind back to McKinnon and the "grease fire" and the dancing on the grave tweets after MB passed away.

Freespeecher · 17/06/2020 13:43

Joe Rogan's spoken about this a few times. Essentially he couldn't get around his pointing out that a biological man shouldn't be able to go around beating the shit out if women only to be told "Hey, you're outta line".

(And this is before the latest tweet).

(Assuming there’s any difference between TRA and incels to begin with.)

Someone on Tumblr invented the term "transcel" for just that reason.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 17/06/2020 13:39

How much more obvious do they need to make it that this is mostly about hurting women?

ahagwears yeah Pleska is an obnoxious Twitter gobshite
Tbh I don't think it matters that Fox isn't fighting any more. They deliberately set out to fight women despite having massive physical advantage, seriously hurt two opponents, and not only do they have no regrets they went out of their way to boast about how much they enjoyed bashing women. And they did this by tweeting at a woman who has disclosed experience of DV, in a thread which started with a tweet JKR sent to a child about their artwork. This is just the lowest of the low

Vile, but not surprising in the slightest.

Fake should say fame.

MrGHardy · 17/06/2020 12:29

As far as I know though, most people in the scene think he's a cheat. And he hasn't fought for years. Irrelevant trying to gain attention.

blubellsarebells · 17/06/2020 12:28

Thanks for the links.
Most of the details had escaped me.

Why are so many prominent transwomen so problematic?
Im sure there are some decent ones but thinking of all the transwomen with influence or a bit of fake, they seem to be massively over represented by the Fallon Foxes and Jess Bradleys, Aimee Challenor and Jane Faes of the world.
Why is that?
All the decent people need to be calling this out and cleaning their own house instead of throwing shit at jkr and other women.
But they hardly ever do.
Its a bad look.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 17/06/2020 12:27

Anyone else think Fallon was on a bender last night?
Not even the most vile TRA would be so stupid...surely?

andyoldlabour · 17/06/2020 12:21

Great reply in the Fallon Fox twitter thread - "#EmmaWatson, still think TWAW?.

Ralph Knibbs suffered sight loss and a neurological disorder as a result of that attack.

Lauren Jeska tried to murder him, simply because Jaska was being asked to produce testosterone samples.
Thankfully Jeska has now had their championship wins erased.
