Andrew Burns AKA Tiffany Scott

This is genius!

Yes, watch that! Good effort from Konstantin - kept it going longer than I thought he could.

One serious snippet there:

You know what, I did say to them on Question Time last night, which I'm sure we'll talk about, "why don't we talk about this story?"

And they said, "we don't have an LGBTQ person on the panel, so we can't talk about it."

You can't be being serious here......

This is genius!

As someone who has higher than normal levels of testosterone than the female normal range due to my PCOS, I always sigh a little when I see 'being female' reduced to hormones. I am a female with an endocrine disorder. My extra testosterone doesn't make me a man in the same way that a male taking estrogen or a female taking even more testosterone makes them the opposite sex. Sex is immutable. Cosmetic surgery and hormones do not change that.

I am ambivalent about GBTV. They have been very good on gender, but I then caught some “Bring back Boris” stuff which came close to tin hat.

I flicked through the Guardian website. Nothing. Will Bindel be interviewed by the BBC? Why not?

Strange times. I can’t see much uproar about Westminster intervening. Instead the focus seems to be on Stugeon’s judgement with another of her party saying the act should be repealed. Gender recognition should never have been a party political issue. The problems seem to date back from Stonewall’s #nodebate and Acceptance without Exception, exacerbated by Sturgeon’s whip.

Acceptance is good. Exceptions need to be made to protect women and girls. Tiffany Scott is clearly one.

I can't remember if it was earlier in this thread or on another but a poster bizarrely did make an argument around a human who had lost a leg. The 'transphobia' of saying that the sex is immutable in humans was compared to being somehow 'phobic' to a person who had lost a leg.

Their point was so poorly drawn that it's hard to relate with any sort of sense.

The Victorians recognised that someone with a penis was a danger to women, which was why they were in support of separate accommodation. I feel very let down by our politicians that they fail to recognise this. It doesn't matter if the person identifies as a man, a woman, a baby or a rainbow unicorn. If they have a penis they don't belong in a women's prison unless there are exceptional circumstances.

This Am I no longer female if I've had a hysterectomy? is so facile - only ONE sex will ever have to have that operation, no man or transwoman will ever need it, having that operation does not alter your sex, no bodily modification does whether something is added or removed.

Perhaps the poster also thinks that humans - a bi-pedal species - cease to be human if they lose one or both of their legs, that's the ridiculous level of that trite comment.

We should not tar the 1% of trans “women” who aren’t predatory by the actions of the others…

How very brave of Amanda.

She is describing two men sexually abusing 38 women. Freely. With support.

While we have people here still wittering about 'well what's female' and other specious twattery that is about excusing and enabling those men in their abuse, and silencing those women.

Do this and you're culpable. All those who have wittered away wangling boundaries to the benefit of males and the suppression and oppression of women are culpable. As much as bloody Sturgeon and co are.

You seem to not actually know what “female” means.

That may be why you seem to be speaking at cross-purposes with everyone else. What are you using the word to mean?

Ooh, I'd watch out - you might excite some TRA's into thinking a pyre has been lit somewhere!

But seriously, yes she's great!

God I feel sick

Torture that’s what it is

Gawd

I don't think it's stupidity. You have to be quite clever to tie yourself up in the knots that poster has.

I think it's 'I'm a good person, la la la'

and for that to be the case there have to be people who are bad people. hence the accusations of transphobis against those who understand that men are men are men, and no woman deserves to be incarcerated with one, regardless of what he or she has done

I don't really see what's so hypocritical - I haven't said the transphobic stuff I say isn't transphobia and the transphobic stuff you say is; that's what hypocrisy is.

Well, the words are English, but that makes no sense at all.

I almost cried. Poor woman. Brave woman. It must be incredibly hard to have to face up to your own wrongdoing and the impact it will have on your children. To then have to shower in front of naked male murderers and abusers. No. Not in any civilised society.

And, given it's only women who are in this situation, how is it not sex discrimination??

That is a truly harrowing situation that Amanda and other women were placed in. How can any politician believe this is in anyway the right and kind thong to do. It needs to stop.

Amanda 💐

Yup. They were free men before and the majority will be free men again, having learned that the protective cloak of gender identity will allow them in to any space they fancy.

If they are comfortable behaving as described whilst under supervision in prison, why on earth would they behave better once out?

Fucking hell. These women should get compensation, at the very least. What a disgusting thing to do to them.

And when they're released, these men can just walk into toilets and changing rooms used by women and girls.

What the hell are the authorities thinking!!!
