Stumbled accross this on twitter. Matt Walsh, an American political commentator is on a chat show and confronts transactivist to define a woman and tells him that he is appropriating womanhood.

Then after being told that he has 'traumatised' the activists... He provides this response!!

Wow. He says sh*t straight.... Haha!

and that they can now go to a nude spa without seeing a trans women

A transwoman with an erection, clearly aroused by being around naked women and girls

Well it didn’t take long to go from accusations of getting into bed with the far right to “rapes are gonna happen anyway, so it doesn’t matter”.

Amazing you think you’re on the moral high ground here barley.

nolongersurprised · 23/01/2022 20:14

Men who are prepared to do things like this are not going to be put off by a woman's sign on the door sadly

So we’re back to, men and boys rape, so let’s just open up all single space spaces, then?

Not a reason to make it easier for men. No matter how they identify. Why open up women's spaces and give women no right to challenge men. Your ideology has caused this.

@VestofAbsurdity

On the subject of Loudoun County - was the rapist a transwoman *@barleybadminton*?
No, in fact it seems to have nothing to do with trans women. And the idea this attack would have been prevented by a single sex space is equally false. Men who are prepared to do things like this are not going to be put off by a woman's sign on the door sadly.

When I was very new to all this, I assumed that everyone understood all the transition and 'sex change' stuff was metaphorical, as human sex is obviously immutable.

A soldier who loses his penis and lower limbs in a terrible landmine explosion is still a man. Infertile women are the same female sex class as fertile/pre-fertile/post-fertile women. A woman who has had a hysterectomy is still just as much a woman as she was the day before the operation. A hirsute woman in a trouser suit is still female, a hirsute man in a skirt is not a lesbian.

This stuff is self-evident.

And indeed when it comes to the desire to acquire a surrogate, suddenly even the most fanatical TRAs actually know what a woman is.

All people in human history are born from women. Small pre-verbal children can tell the difference between men and women, animals can tell. We all know what women are.

So why the pretence? Qui bono?
Why is it all so complicated to parse, so that on national tv you can't muster a coherent, non-tautological definition of the word woman, a word for half the world's population?

A woman is anyone
who feels like a woman,
calls themselves a woman,
identifies as a woman,
is described by others as a woman,
looks like a woman,
their GRC says they are a woman
just doesn't cut it.

A schnarblex is anyone who feels like a schnarblex etc shows it up to be guff.

When you won't agree that a woman is an adult human female, nothing more, nothing less, then your ideology is bogus, untethered from reality. Then genuinely negative and dangerous consequences start appearing which - !surprise! - particularly affect women and girls.

It's just a few short moves before you have babies being born with no sex (Dawn Butler-MP, Labour) only women having cervixes being something that shouldn't be said (Keir Starmer MP, Labour), women not having a right to single sex spaces (Alex Sobel MP, Labour ) and rapists in women's prisons(Lisa Nandy MP, Labour)

And yes, right wing people have every chance to exploit your incoherence on the subject.

Meanwhile I note a change in Loudoun County.

Do you believe the earth is flat barley?

VestofAbsurdity · 23/01/2022 19:58

nude spa without seeing a trans women

So you are admitting the sexual offender with a string of previous convictions is a transwoman? Dearie me, I though no transwomen ever did that kind of thing.

NotBadConsidering · 23/01/2022 19:58

and that they can now go to a nude spa without seeing a trans women

So you’re admitting the person who was charged with indecent exposure is in fact a transwoman? But I thought it never happened?!

Deliriumoftheendless · 23/01/2022 19:58

Jesus Christ- still people defending a sexual predator exposing himself in front of children, which is actually what “seeing a transwoman” means in this instance.

Alekto · 23/01/2022 19:57

Are trans people trying to ban abortion?

Yes, some are:

"We are the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising!

#Prolife #AntiAbortion"

NotBadConsidering · 23/01/2022 19:56

Ah yes, California and Wi Spa. Women and girls subjected to indecent exposure (male subsequently charged with such offences), and women and girls painted as liars, with the Guardian complicit.

Yes, let’s all rush to be like them Hmm. Not to mention the other anti-women horrors such as surrogacy laws there masquerading as progressive.

barleybadminton · 23/01/2022 19:55

@MrBlobbyLivesNextDoor

We know what a trans inclusive society looks like because it exists in places like New York and California

Not very inclusive to women though. Just look at WiSpa.. Trans person with their cock hanging out in front of women and children with a semi errection. That's how fucking inclusive it is. To cock owners. And this is what trans ideology is doing. Seeking to destroy any rights and safeguards that women have. So get to fuck with your far right bollocks. Trans ideology has created this. Deal with it.

Maybe we should have zones (far away from anyone else) where you can live your utopia, and leave womens rights and children's safeguards the fuck alone.

I'm sure the women forced to carry their rapists baby's to full term will be ever so grateful that you cheered on those who banned them from having an abortion and that they can now go to a nude spa without seeing a trans women.

What was that quote in Cabaret - let the Nazi Party deal with the Communists then Germany will deal with the Nazis. It didn't quite work out that way did it?

BINGO, BINGO, BINGO - what do I win?

NotBadConsidering · 23/01/2022 19:53

Are trans people trying to ban abortion? Do trans activists believe in racial hierarchies? Are trans activists bombing abortion clinics? Do trans activists want to limit women's access to contraception? Do trans people want to ban gay marriage and think that women should become 'trad wives' and restricted to the domestic sphere?

“Would you rather be punched in the face or kicked in the guts?”

Trans activists not people are trying to take a number of rights from women and violently threatening women at the same time. You seem to be arguing that by agreeing with Walsh on one thing we will take our eye off the ball and let the rest of his traditional right wing anti-women ideas take hold. Once you remember all the attacks on women’s rights coming from TRAs, which are as equally bad for women as all those things you wrote, you’re actually projecting this as a choice between two evils, like getting punched in the face or kicked in the guts, which is a bit of an own goal there.

But the reality is there is more than enough fight to go around to repel both the traditional attack on women’s rights - which doesn’t seek to hide its misogyny at least - and the more modern attack on women’s rights that is trans activism, which disguises its misogyny under the guise of progressivism.

We can deal with both just fine, thank you.

Don't fucking tell me who I'm allowed to support.

"It's quite possible to support gender critical views without getting into bed with the hard right."

It's also possible to support trans rights without getting into bed with extreme transactivists. But of course, you haven't worked that out yet.

Good for him

barleybadminton · 23/01/2022 19:42

@MrBlobbyLivesNextDoor

Lol Barley. Do you ever read back what you write? So transparent. So women shouldn't support this point he makes because otherwise the sky will fall down. In other words, shut up about gender ideology.

Not happening.

It's quite possible to support gender critical views without getting into bed with the hard right. That some people seem so relaxed about that makes me suspicious where their political motives truly lie. Or perhaps they are just thick and so immersed in privilege that they can't possibly imagine that things could turn out badly for them were such a movement to seize power.

Yes and people are leaving those places in droves. Some commenters go so far as to say that California can now be consisted a "failed state".

I've seen you berating women all over these boards and now you're here appealing for them to see sense and not feel relief as the right start to reclaim some ground and start to push away your damaging agenda. I'd laugh if I wasn't so apprehensive.
