Thank You from the Lurkers

Thank you from another lurker! I really appreciate the discussions that go on here and the knowledge, wisdom and outrage that is shared, I have learned a lot and lurking here has confirmed my gender critical views.

I’m a lurker but this board has inspired me to to donate to Sex Matters on a regular basis

I'm mostly a lurker too. Thank you @TofuDelights for this lovely thread. A massive thank you to the regulars who post with such intelligence, honesty and perseverance. You are all amazing

Thank you from me too (I sort of mainly lurk and occasionally post bits but at heart I'm a lurker). You well informed women are helping to make the world a better place

Thank you from another lurker. As the others have said, it's so helpful and gives us more confidence to speak up in real life, even if we can't always say exactly how we feel.

I have been lurking, and very rarely posting, on here for at least a decade. Thank you to all of the regular posters. I am in awe of you!

Big fat lurker here, quietly learning and spreading the GC perspective where I can. Thank you for the patience insight and wisdom on this board - not to mention a few handy turns of phrase I've pocketed!

Thank you, FWR vipers, from another mostly lurker. The knowledge, expertise, strength and compassion of those who regularly post here is so compelling. I too have begun to quietly add my name to petitions, to drop the occasion point into discussions where I feel sunlight may be needed and I'm filled with fury about what has been sneaked past everyone in plain sight.

chuffed you started this thread, @TofuDelights

more very sincere thanks from a lurker who reads every day. FWR has genuinely changed my life / enabled all sorts of real-world conversations.

wishing peaceful festivities to all of the brilliant women who post

Merry Christmas, the board is a fantastic source of inspiration.

Mostly a lurker, wholly grateful to the intelligent, thoughtful posters.
I was GC, without knowing the term, when I found FWR and I have learned so much here.
Thank you all.

Another very grateful lurker, who passes things onto friends and DH. I have really been educated and stop by almost daily. I am blessed in a life where this has not yet directly touched me, but, the one time it did, I stood up and didn’t back down. With no self doubt at all. Because of the knowledge I have gained from you all.

Yay! Lurking vipers rock

Another grateful lurker here, so nice to add to this thread, have learned so much from this board

Another thank you from a Lurker x

definitely a lurker and definitely radicalized by these boards. thank you.

Me too - have learned a lot.
Hope you all have a great Christmas, and here's to growing chinks of light and more noise in 2022 🥂

I have been in and out of this board for 12 years or so and what amazes me is no matter what hoops those who post are FORCED to jump through in order to support the rights and safeguarding of women and children you manage to get the message across.
You are a force to be rekonded with.

I salute you.

Huge, massive thanks and appreciation from me.
It's so good to see articulate, thoughtful allies defending our rights.
My warmest good wishes to all concerned. Thank you.

Definitely a lurker! I’ve learned so much from this board. I’m also educating friends when it’s appropriate and all have been interested and concerned by the issues around self ID and the concept of gender identity.
I came off Twitter about a year ago but can follow links people put on here and followed the JK Rowling row and was horrified by the comments against her speaking truth.

I really want to say a big thank you to the wonderfully articulate and educated women on here and I plan to continue to chip away and make a difference, where I can.

Another inveterate lurker here. Grateful thanks from me too - for the Invaluable info, erudition and laugh-out-loud humour in the face of such discouraging odds.

Thank you all from here too... always in awe of the knowledgeable posters here. FWR has shaped my feminism and made me think far more deeply on so many issues... and I get to share this with the next generation with my 3dd's ( dd1 did her English speaking exam on feminism 😃).

Merry Christmas vipers!

Regular reader and rare poster sending thanks, love and good cheer for the festive season to all the fabulous women on here xx

Me too. I visit this board daily and am in awe of all your clear sighted, intelligent posts. Thank you for putting into words what I have felt for years, for educating me about things I had no idea about, and for reassuring me that I'm not going mad. Thanks also to the OP for starting this thread so we can all express our appreciation. Happy Christmas to all you amazing women
