Penny Mordaunt thinks we're stupid. Her thread on Twitter...

Ah ok, previous answers have clarified! That's quite a pr thread!

I'm confused as from that thread she seems to have stood up for women in sports and launched an enquiry into the x4000 % rise in girls seeking sex changes, defended the use of sex specific language in health care and stood up for Kathleen stock. And also experienced the degrading sexism of being put in the papers in a swim suit because she's a woman.

What did she say in the dispatch box? What has she left out?

I'm wondering if she's 'fine tuning her beliefs' in the light of more recent events. Plus Cass

Not a defender, I don't actually know a great deal about her nor that she'd done and said the things she quotes in the thread.

It seems that as the tide is turning from the absolute TWAW team, she is jumping ship too.

Im glad people are realising that TWAW is not concrete anymore, but I hope she’s not doing it just because everyone else is, and because she realises It’s not true

She hasn’t changed her mind. Her thread explains why biology can make someone a woman. She also thinks there are other types of women (legal women, women by ‘gender identity’), and she also thinks a biological woman can be a man.

Julia Hartley-Brewer has asked her the one question that will tell us what she thinks: is a transwoman a woman?

I hate that we have to do this. It’s not fair on trans people for them to have to endure this scrutiny because of politicians’ gullibility and weakness in the face of Stonewall’s and other lobbyists’ aggression.

I can see her comms team in a frantic circle trying to devise something that has a bob each way that will put this pesky little issue to bed. Apparently there are biological women and legal women. Never once does she say whether legal women (ie men identifying as women) should access women’s spaces.

Apparently she instigated the reviews into children’s gender clinics. The review results have never been published and she studiously ignored attempts to get her to cough them up.

A disingenuous, weak and defensive thread. The chickens are coming home to roost Penny. You have dismissed women for too long to get us back with a mealy-mouthed history twist.
