Video in the link. And if I'm understanding correctly, Stonewall are going to be advising Ofcom on which groups the BBC are allowed to feature in their reports?? Hmm

John Nicholson compares the BBC asking LGBA their opinion on trans rights to asking a racist group to comment on whether black people should have equality. Allison Bailey has tweeted him. Understandably she finds the racist comparison offensive. He tries shutting her down by referring to the crowd funders that were taken down for ''hate''. No, those crowd funders were maliciously targeted by anti-women and homophobic groups/people, John.

He also says that people are making the same arguments now against trans people that they used to against gay people. I don't remember gay men ever demanding women's rights, or trying to force women and girls into situations they're uncomfortable with. I don't remember gay men being sent to women's prisons because they feel unsafe in the men's, or gay men demanding the right to cheat women out of sports medals and job positions, does anyone else?

Gay men and lesbians were persecuted because of homophobia. This pushback against the trans lobby has shit all to do with any ''phobia'', it's the unreasonable demands that will put women and children in danger, and the threatening of anyone who doesn't comply that we're against. We're against the homophobia coming from the trans lobby, particularly against lesbians, that so called LGBT champion groups turn a blind eye to.

I'm sick of these hard of thinking, overgrown children framing anyone who doesn't want to focus all their energy on trans 24/7 as 'hate groups'. Women's groups who want to focus on women only? Anti-trans hate group. Group who want to centre LGB people only? Anti-trans hate group. Rape victims wanting to chose the sex of their examiner in the aftermath? Anti-trans hate. Dismiss and smear anyone who doesn't blow smoke up their arse as a right wing hate group in an attempt to deplatform them.

Can they just have a fucking word with themselves, they're so boring and predictable.

So sorry for the rant, I'm so sick of the idiocy.

Oh man, he's going to have a right shock when he sees all the TRAs telling lesbians and gays there sexual orientation is a 'fetish', and they are horrible people for excluding members of the opposite sex from their dating pool.

This man has a Twitter block thingie

He blocks women

Not a great person at all

What does this bloke think re men trying to dictate who can voice an opinion on women's rights? (Trick question... answer is he doesn't think about it at all, I'd guess).

Trying to cover up as usual that a lot of the people arguing with this are gay and were the ones fighting over actual legal inequality and actual conversion therapy and know about this shit

Lets face it, all this desperate framing boils down to last ditch attempts to prevent women and LGB voices being heard. Because they know what happens when women and LGB people explain the issues to the general public and open their eyes to this not being what it's being sold as.

MPs have a public duty incidentally. It used to be a matter of pride to them in the days when integrity and responsibility and fairness and values like that were a Thing.

This X1000

I don't know why they expect women to just roll over and take it..oh actually I do, because men should have every tiny want/desire/demand met no matter what the cost to the safety, privacy, dignity and rights of women.

Fuck that noise.
