Please sign into CSP and look at the new iCSP discussion "Stonewall and the CSP"

A great thread beginning and agreement that stonewall are problematic and women's rights are being overlapped by male rights

Then a HUGE ESSAY by a TRA

Sad

Yes, that’s not far off the list vote qualifier. Elaine for Holyrood? Probably not for Holroyde?

this made me raise an eyebrow. The CSP could do to reflect on the thing or two.Total lack of self awareness

Calyx72 · 10/03/2023 22:53

4% of the first votes, I am impressed 😃

I see Elaine wasn't successful at the by-election but given it was her first go at politics, I doubt she was expecting to be. Good on her though!

why are my fees going up, then? Csp had loadsamoney icsp

im so annoyed - it looks like they just sit in their silo being pleased with themselves and not listening to the membership while charging us a fortune to be told that we are transphobic if we don’t bring our —fetish— whole self to work

im honestly thinking of doing something else . I liked it when we did science and it made sense.

now we’ve got a council by election? Has that even happened before?

Agreed. I really am not happy with the increase.

Not sure @stealtheatingtunnocks. I looked on the website and they still have 10 council members so surely that's enough?

Katherine's tweets over the past few days are about leadership and true leaders putting others first and being able to admit when things are going wrong. Is she referring to anyone in particular?

Calyx72 · 03/03/2023 21:57

Gosh. Thanks for the heads up. No idea what it's about either. Two in quick succession makes me think something may have happened but neither have given anything away just saying no time to deliver the innovation and change required, also mentioned her values and standards of professionalism (Katherine Ashmore)

It appears that two members of the council have resigned. Not sure what's going on. https://twitter.com/ashmorephysio

stealtheatingtunnocks · 27/02/2023 20:23

She says it was vexatious, so, multiple, repeated, baseless complaints?

I wonder if any were in-house?

Calyx72 · 26/02/2023 14:15

I don't know. I have 'liked' it on Twitter with my work account though (I am so brave) Grin

Just read this article on Elaine Miller and noticed it says a complaint was made about her to CSP. I wonder how that went and if she was investigated?

RadFizz · 17/02/2023 13:01

Can't link it on the app but there's a thread in FWR about RCPsych now boasting about its Stonewall accreditation. At least CSP hasn't gone that far... yet!

stealtheatingtunnocks · 16/02/2023 23:35

That’s harsh, @RadFizz , Loui is very clear that Loui cares about rapists too .

RadFizz · 16/02/2023 07:54

Someone needs to tell Louie that the only rapists who are shes started life as hes! Sounds like the LGBT network may as well change its name to the T network as that's all Louie cares about.

stealtheatingtunnocks · 15/02/2023 09:49

Ah, Loui’s pinned tweet explains how rapists can be “she” too. I think. No mention of the victims of those sexual assaults. They must not matter.

RadFizz · 15/02/2023 06:56

I missed this last month, but the trans member of the LGBT network (not the same as the diversity committee) tweeted to say that CSP should adopt this definition of transphobia, which is basically TWAW and anyone who disagrees is a hateful bigot. https://www.transactual.org.uk/transphobia

Calyx72 · 12/02/2023 11:02

Good thread on Twitter about "transphobia"

@vivariumvivariumsvivaria Blue hair is Jack himself but I'm hoping the ones without pronouns next to their names are GC!

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 11/02/2023 19:47

The diversity committee is not very diverse, is it? Everyone has the TWAW mantra, same politics and is of similar age and most of them are in London.

Only one of them has blue hair, we must be grateful that, at least.

RadFizz · 11/02/2023 11:32

What was interesting about that "consultation" was that it only asked if they should adopt a definition of transphobia. Not what it should be. That is a far trickier question to answer but with Jack on the diversity committee it seems like nothing but TWAW will be acceptable.

Did not respond to Twitter , however did get a CSP feedback link last week. Which had rating and some feedback free text boxes. Filled in ranted about the need to ensure free speach is protected for members, especially those who believe in binary sex. Added in something about what was posted on Twitter and about it would be ridiculous for the CSP to define ‘ transphobia’ when there is not even and national definition of trans and that the CSP is a professional body and not political body etc etc.

Perfect 👏

I emailed from my non-work account, anonymously, saying I hope that being a non-believer in gender, and believing that sex matters, would not mean that I would be accused of transphobia.
I said in the email that I am a registered physiotherapist in Scotland and that my beliefs are worthy of respect.
I also said that despite those beliefs, if in my professional capacity I found myself dealing with a trans colleague or patient then of course I would treat them with the respect and dignity that everyone else is treated with.

If it had been a straight woman patient who had been assaulted by her male partner would he have found her somewhere to stay? He sounds very discriminatory if not.
