The enclosed has been posted on Twitter, obviously they are going to get crap from the TRAs.

I've tweeted a message of support and made a small donation, I thought others might want to do the same or to email with support.

Do we have to list all of the charities we wont donate to now?

Skyliner001 · 24/04/2021 19:56

Won't donate 😌

I hope I can add to this without diverting this subject the CEO of the Women's Resource Centre recently did a talk at a WPUK online event.
She said "sex not gender" so that looks like another org for women. I've donated to them and will donate to wight Dash on payday.

Will also dig for Keira again on payday.

Donated. Thanks for sharing OP. Felt quite emotional reading everyone’s messages of support - great to see.

PeridotEyes · 24/04/2021 14:21

Donated.

I loved this response from a Twitter user:

Away and harass some men for a change, would you?
For people who claim sex is a spectrum you are experts at sniffing out and targeting female groups

Have donated too.

It never ceases to amaze and amuse when folk who purport to be fighting on the side of the angels instead only end up showing themselves in their true light...and it ain't pretty...

The need for validation is a powerful drug. There's never enough.

Their second tweet has screenshots of the ''rather disgusting policy''.

What I rather like* is that they have helpfully listed no less than 7 charities in the sector that they believe to be inclusive of transwomen and non-binary people, but it is still a problem that a single woman-only charity remains.

*sarcasm

BlueLobelia · 24/04/2021 12:30

I am donating to Wight-DASH also.

@yourhairiswinterfire

As a result of twitter, a transactivist has actually got around to reading the Equality Act 2010, and they're horrified.

''The equality act needs to change''.

So in other words, ''we need to remove the law that allows abused women and their likely traumatised young children access to female only safe spaces and support services''.

Nice.

That sums up their whole agenda though, really.
