New school resource - awful

I loved this bit:

This confusion is furthered by trans-exclusionary ‘feminists’ appearing on daytime television and calmly explaining their views in ways that many people think seem reasonable

I wonder why they seem reasonable Andy - could it be perhaps because ... ? Perhaps they should come on TV and scream about literal violence?

I object to the"feminists" in quotes though - as well as to most of the rest of the article.

This is part of the thread. As I remember it, the first (now deleted) tweet was the article about JK. The second (also deleted) tweet is where they tagged her in.

EyesOpening

They mysteriously deactivated their account which was at school_sexed.

If you twitter search that, you can see the replies they were getting and fill in the blanks. There was a bit of "I hope she sues" in there.

“This confusion is furthered by trans-exclusionary ‘feminists’ appearing on daytime television and calmly explaining their views in ways that many people think seem reasonable.”

🤣🤣🤣

Priceless.

In a way though, it is actually quite refreshing to see this nonsense all written down.

Beware of white middle class women! They are all witches.

I hope their mums have told them not to expect a Christmas present this year, ungrateful little toads

If you’re not sure about something, look it up and learn, but please be careful where you get your information from. Illogical and transphobic arguments can seem reasonable at first when presented calmly and emotively by a middle class white cis woman on a breakfast show. However, through their position, these cis women pose a real threat to the livelihoods and safety of trans woman – much more than any perceived threat trans women pose to them.

Only middle class white women pose threat to livelihood and safety of trans women. Presumably if I go on day time tv and say the same things as white middle class women I won't be threat since I am neither white nor middle class, because you know, BLM.

"A really cool surgery"

That's how they describe irreversible surgery and life-long treatments that often render people infertile, with permanent open wounds and unable to have an orgasm.

“This confusion is furthered by trans-exclusionary ‘feminists’ appearing on daytime television and calmly explaining their views in ways that many people think seem reasonable.”

I wonder why they seem reasonable?

On the plus side, someone has successfully coalesced every single bullshit illogical argument all in one place. I’ve never seen such a collection of lies all together, they’re usually sprinkled about various articles and Twitter.

So there’s that, I suppose.

Using the picture of the clitoris as their main logo is outrageous.

They need to replace it with a picture of a cock. Preferably the sort that boys and men draw everywhere everywhere with some spunk coming out.

Reading that. They are all about the men. Be honest.

Using that image, given the content, is a massive piss take.

Psychological and scientific academia has widely proved that gender, and sex, are socially constructed.

In this section I’m going to outline some of the key arguments against trans women I’ve seen recently, and then logically demonstrate why these arguments are total garbage.

Honestly, I cant even get through it. It's written by a ten year old.

Nonsensical claptrap and very likely defaming.

I really really hope she lawyers up over this; it's so outrageous and blatant and ignorant.

They're on twitter, and they're so proud of themselves that they tagged JK Rowling into the conversation.

It is possible to contact that organisation linked to in this thread and to tell what is wrong with that long piece.

Drop us an email: [email protected]

The more mail they get the more they will become educated.

Another interesting link:

Aidan Comerford is an Irish writer who has stepped up repeatedly as a public ally to trans people. Comerford tells me he’s been contacted privately by a number of former ‘gender critical’ people who describe cult-like thinking within the movement, where love-bombing and affirmation follows any public mockery of trans people—and hate-bombing awaits anyone who has second thoughts.

He says he’s lost count of the number of gender critical people he’s seen complaining of losing friendships and family relationships to their anti-trans dogma. “I very rarely come across a ‘gender critical’ person who isn't personally abusive.

What a load of utter shit.

Troubled Blood – a book about a cis man who dresses in feminine clothing to kill cis women

The first lie.

There are so many lies in there that I stopped needing to read any more after the first couple of paras.

I really hope JKR sues them for that.

I have a DD in Guides and she loves it. I am also a Leader and our unit has agreed amongst ourselves not to deliver some of the new activities. The other Leaders don't have kids and have accepted my perspective that some of the activities (I think the ones in particular that had been partnered by others) were not acceptable to me as a parent and that probably means other parents wouldn't like them either. It's not the role of Guides to 'do' phse and not what parents expect from us. I think we should actually seek more consent from parents when deviating from the expected programme. It's sneaky to promote an ideology in such a trusted environment.
It's not mandatory for leaders to do all of the materials available, you are allowed to pick and choose.

I find it very disturbing that guiding is getting involved in SRE at all. I don't think that's what most parents imagine will be covered when they sign up their daughters.

"JK Rowling contributes significantly to British public opinion, which affected the Government’s decision to roll back on their planned increase of legal rights to trans people"

Is that a libelous statement? Should any organisation which publishes lies such as the above, be allowed to influence children's education?

What a pack of lies.

My particular favourite is trying to muddy the water over whether Caster Semenya is intersex or not - I don't think I've seen that before.

I think the best part is where the author says that they've gone into men's toilets countless times as a femme-presenting non-binary person and never had an issue at all because nobody really cares, then says a few sentences down that if trans women (who the author also claims at once point you can't tell are trans) had to use men's toilets they'd be at risk of serious danger and violence. What.
