#OnlyFemalesGetCervicalCancer is trending on Twitter!

I just read what Emma Goldman posted. Transwomen need to get their "neocervix"(es) tested? Is there really such a thing??????

Thanks.

I could cry with frustration. Even my workplace is referring to "people who menstruate" in company emails, publicly supporting TRA campaigns, and has a supposedly feminist employee organisation that has denounced JKR as "anti-trans". Several messages encouraging donations to Mermaids, too. It's suffocating. I just can't deal with the lack of basic critical thinking skills on display, and the ridiculous conclusions drawn as a result. Especially by those in positions of influence and power. It seems the majority of the loudest voices have misunderstood pretty much every argument they're opposing.

Does anyone know what Tweet the original comment was in response to? Assuming it was a response to something.

Thanks for posting that guide for transwomen who have had surgery DanceLikeEmmaGoldman, that was very interesting. I hadn't known about the cancer risk, so good to know that there are services out there for trans people that need them.

Er. Right then.

We are accused of "gatekeeping cancer". Nasty women, keeping all the cervical cancer to themselves.

Well this apparently is the Final death knell Of male/female=sex and woman/man=gender

Still dunno what I’m going to do in my evo bio class Next semester when we talk about sex for 3 weeks. Maybe I’ll get cancelled. Never mind my students probably won’t even come to class because coronavirus so it should be fine

Twitter is mental. Biological reality is hate speech now?

Look at the objections. Not content with the words woman and man being gendered, the words male and female are part of gender identity too now. Not to mention complete idiocy around intersex.

I have to keep reminding myself that half the population has an IQ in double digits, and the actual number of Twitter users is fewer than 5% of the world population. It shouldn’t carry the weight it does on popular opinion. Or, you know, scientific facts.

So if someone put on twitter "only men get prostate cancer" they would be thrown off for 'hateful speech'?

See the thing that really, really makes me angry is that men who transition to living as if they were women must know perfectly well that they are still biologically male, and have no need to be personally concerned about health issues that affect the female body. (Of course there are transwomen who do acknowledge this, and who have pointed it out on many occasions).

Do women who transition to living as males get so hysterical about health campaigns aimed exclusively at men I wonder? Such as the need to be tested for prostate cancer for example? Perhaps not, as the word man has not been banned in common discourse yet, as has been attempted with the word woman.

I hope this twitter campaign persuades the CEO that women have had enough of this barking mad campaign to deny women the right to talk about themselves. It's tyranny, and I'm sick of it.

The worlds gone mad.
