No one is buying their nonsense are they?

WorriedForWomen · 18/12/2020 08:58

The ratio is a thing of true beauty Xmas Grin

ThatIsNotMyUsername · 18/12/2020 08:53

And what’s with the crappy colours used?

ThatIsNotMyUsername · 18/12/2020 08:52

Look - their definition of woman is a bit wonky and they don’t seem to like women much anyhow.

What’s their game (let me guess - money?)

Stonewalls care about women?

Liars.

@BaronessWrongCrowd

I do not need, nor do I want for Stonewall to represent me as a woman. (I suspect that Stonewall means by woman doesn't relate to us at all.)

I'd rather walk over a bed of Lego than trust those bastards with anything related to my sex. I would be happy to see Stonewall disappear for the damage they have done to lesbians and to women's rights in general.

How dare they. How bloody dare they.

Amen

"StonewaTT" funny and (sadly) true.

I think what they are trying to do is astroturf their own definition of woman.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 18/12/2020 08:03

Stonewall include transwomen in women. So by 'women and non-binary' they mean females, males who identify as female, and males and females who believe they aren't male or female, but not females who identify as male.

This.

PurpleHoodie · 18/12/2020 08:02

Stonewall most certainly DO NOT represent the interests of gay people anymore.

They absolutely DO NOT represent the interests of women.

Especially lesbian and bi-sexual women.

PurpleHoodie · 18/12/2020 08:00

Everytime I see a new KFC advert, I think of these out of date, and not fit for purpose, dangerous losers like Stonewall et al.

For them it's mainly about the gravy(train). Grifting snake oil salesmen and women.

Whatwouldscullydo · 18/12/2020 07:17

Too little too late stonewall.

You can do one.

EmpressWitchDoesntBurn · 18/12/2020 07:06

Like fuck Stonewall care about women.

SunsetBeetch · 18/12/2020 07:05

Oh FUCK OFF, Stonewall!

highame · 18/12/2020 07:02

In the past few months Stonewall have become the champions of everyone, whether they like it or not. Bizarre that they want to champion women. Must be really short of protected groups in need of their help Grin

@RedToothBrush

In 2019 Stonewall raised £3,269,477 out of £8,315,995 from fees for membership of their diversity programme.

This week the government has said that the civil service is to ditch diversity awareness training and urged other public sector employers to do the same ...

...and this week Stonewall decides it gives a stuff about women and seemingly expands its remit.

Wow, what a coincidence! Hmm
NiceGerbil · 18/12/2020 02:28

What a piss take.

Last month they decided they're working for intersex people (unilaterally) now they are interested in women?

Fuck off.

NotTerfNorCis · 18/12/2020 00:35

Stonewall include transwomen in women. So by 'women and non-binary' they mean females, males who identify as female, and males and females who believe they aren't male or female, but not females who identify as male.

The colour scheme they're using is getting a lot of stick.

DeRigueurMortis · 18/12/2020 00:33

I think by putting the message out with a green background and yellow type they've done their best to make it bloody hard to read....

Token gesture is the phrase that springs to mind.

They must be crapping their pants at the potential revenue loss of all that Govt diversity training.

Good.

I don't want my tax spent on promoting an ideology.

Stonewalls all about the money now. Since gay marriage was rightly legalised they've been striving to find a way to keep themselves relevant and in the road.

The T and B have been providing that vehicle for them - only now even they must be realising that it won't pass its MOT without a new clutch.

If they think changing gears to support women is going to cut it they are badly mistaken.

We won't forget you fuckers...

Crafting1Queen · 17/12/2020 23:59

Oh, they do now, do they? Aye!

stumbledin · 17/12/2020 23:55

I suspect that all these "followers" are put upon employees of organistaions that inflicted Stonewall training on them and that part of the follow up is to say they are now following them!

And also if this is only partly true what they heard in training and then what they see in response to the hypocrasy of Stonewall leaves them unable to say anything.

Because if their workplace saw they were questioning Stonewall there would probably be an internal investigation.

This is how you get what appears to me majority compliance.

yourhairiswinterfire · 17/12/2020 23:40

Their Twitter seems weird to me. They supposedly have 214.6k followers, yet only get a low number of likes and little engagement from followers...

stumbledin · 17/12/2020 23:27

Related to this thread there is a discussion on facebook about putting a formal complaint against the CEO of Ofcom for blatantly showing bias which goes against the remit of Ofcom, and specifically in relation to monitoring "hate speech" on the internet when so many women have been silenced by Stonewall / trans activists.

I suspect it wont get anywhere, but it just shows how well entrenched Stonewall is with both the government and so called campaigners.

And the terrible thing is even if, for instance, WPUK offered training of ensuring women's rights most Governments and big companies would not book it. Because behind this are the hidden networks of male frienships that create the influence to begin with.

re complaining, I do hope LGB Alliance put in a formal complaint. I dont mean wasting time on twitter but finding Ofcom's own complaint procedure.

Trans activists are so hard nosed about this type of thing. Sometimes it seems the gender critical groups just dont have the same stamina in terms of pushing back agressively.
