Meet the new CEO of Endometriosis South Coast

It's like making someone whose main qualification is that they're openly into the furry community into the CEO of a dog charity.

😂😂😂😂

The DM has many many faults however it’s on the ball with holding up the ridiculousness and danger of the whole GI BS to its readers.

As far as media outlets go, it’s the one that shines a light to its readership of what’s actually happening

Of course it was deliberate - like whatstheir face who runs Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre.

What sector would be most objectionable to the terfs, is (conveniently!) the best for the trumpet polishing validation.

Got to admit. Didn't initially see anything wrong with a man being CEO of this charity. Same as being a sighted person at a charity for Blind people.

BUT having read all about him on this thread and his background, he's def not the right person.

Absolutely not!

IDK if it's been posted yet (have scrolled back and can't see it anywhere) but this was reported in the DM today: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-12742595/Outrage-charity-womens-condition-appoints-trans-woman-CEO.html
Where they very clearly point out that a transwoman doesn't have a uterus.
I have binned the link picture preview because it was that person's face, enlarged. 🤢

How did we get to the point where stating biological fact is an arrestable and suable offence? And where men with a piece of paper can invade our space and privacy?

“ Steph “ was spotted at the Labour Party conference this year …in the women’s toilets at one point…but that’s all fine as “ Steph “ has a GRC…🙄🙄🙄

“ Steph” appears to the threatening to sue women on Twitter who are pointing out that “ Steph “ is a biological male , as “ Steph” has a GRC …

Steph has made much effort to portray (not sure now I remember the rules) *self as a compassionate voice, seeking negotiations while jauntily lobbing about 'TERF', coming out with numerous concerning tweets re safeguarding and hanging out with Freda Wallace, Claire Prosho and Bernie 'Julie Miller' McClean.

No, Steph - sexual assault is never 'minor'

I didn't read the post as suggesting that visually impaired people themselves meet these stereotypes, but that the putative sighted person was expressing their supposed "blindness" by adopting ablist stereotypes of blindness just as trans women express their supposed "womanhood" by adopting sexist stereotypes of womanhood.

Oh a total peach @WickedSerious !

He seems nice doesn't he?

Just shows that we all have our own opinions as those living with or affected by visual impairment. I did also point out that I do agree with the cause.

I'm visually impaired and I don't think that poster was being disablist at all. And I agree with the point they were making.

I ‘get’ the point you are trying to make and I have every sympathy with the cause but as the parent of a blind teenager, I’d like to respectfully make the point that your comment is disablist, specifically your derogatory reference to ‘wearing sunglasses indoors’. There may be blind people who choose or need to wear sunglasses but there are many, many who do not, depending on their sight loss condition/s. Also, my teen does not use a ‘white stick’ - she does however carry a long cane. I hope you don’t mind me pointing this out: I always think it’s good to be as well informed and educated on all issues affecting oppressed and minority populations.

I don't believe that people don't understand that a man pretending to be a women heading a women's charity is not the same as a man who understands he's a man, and different to women, doing so.

I think everyone does understand they just don't know how to artuclate the discomnfort without seeming unkind. They want it to be OK.

Well it's not OK. It's insulting to ask us to pretend this person is the same as us in any context, but especially in this one.

*I think we’ll probably find this is text book targeting and take over a small organisation by TRA’s and redirect it to validate TW

we should look at recent trustee appointments*

rip4nutmeg on TwitterX has done some digging. Looks as though this organisation was set up with a very specific focus right from the start.

I had endometriosis. It blighted my life and left me in near-constant agony, and I reached a stage where I was almost unable to work. I wasn’t even referred by my GP, so I had to pay privately to see a specialist, who was male - but he was a highly-trained surgeon with decades of experience who understood that I was suffering because of my specifically female anatomy and my female cycle.

Also to the point, he wasn’t a cos-playing man battening onto the suffering of women. This appointment is absolutely grotesque.

The problem is some males who ‘identify as women’ think women advocating for single sex spaces are terfs/vermin and deserved to be on the receiving end of violence….how can these males possibly advocate on behalf of women?

Did you wear sunglasses indoors and carry a white stick for a sexual kick though?

Because now Steph has been appointed, we can pretty much guarantee that the word woman will be removed across this whole website, if it hasn't been done already. Remember, cancelling of women usually starts from the top.

But Steph will reserve the right to use the word of course. All those women's awards and Wot not

Surprised to see someone like this who plays a leading role in attempting to silence women talking, thinking that they have any role in speaking for women. Julie Bindel wrote about the sexual threats made to women at the protest that Steph played a major role in organising, outside the 2021 FILIA conference.
Unbelievable.
