Meet the new CEO of Endometriosis South Coast

Steph can't even get adenomyosis right.

Steph seems to think Steph is CEO of an organisation advocating for sufferers of adenoyosis.

I saw the tweet this morning and had an immediate involuntary physical reaction to the picture beside the words before I’d even quite clocked them. Not uncanny valley exactly because picture wasn’t computer generated but similar

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

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.

1 in 10 people is not the same as 1 in 10 women of reproductive age

This is a common blunder genderists make, and makes their stats completely misleading, and unclear. Is this 1 in 10 women (so "people" has just been inserted wherever "women" appears) or is it 1 in 10 of the general population, so approximately 1 in 5 women? Don't quote me on the maths there, it's not my forte just highlighting the potential for confusion.

Quite.

It doesn't exactly fill you with confidence, does it? From that sentence alone I know that this organisation:

• Prioritises male wishes over their core remit which is only relevant to women
• Doesn't understand figures/ statistics
• Has no concept of fact checking or attention to detail

Does Steph think Steph is going to hell then? Interesting.

I've posted this on one of the other threads, but i'll post it again, nasty little individual!

I believe he owns a business selling baby equipment (car seats, prams etc).

Steph seems to have missed out any non-binary identifying women, or those with other gender identities that aren't woman/transman (of which I think there are possibly infinite varieties) on that tweet. tsk tsk. I expect that Steph will now cancel Steph-self as a result of this omission.

The problem with people like Steph being advocates for women is the implication that there was no woman with an equal skill set along with her sex based advantage.

Also, people like Steph tend to very visibly demonstrate lack of empathy for women. Again, implicit in their personal presentation and behaviour is a disrespect for sex based experiences and women’s sex based vulnerabilities.

Looks like Steph's already on that point to be fair.

Just so tired of all this male bullshit.

Is this the same person who claimed to have evidence of a biological, testable basis for being born in the wrong body, and was going to release the "evidence" before getting a backlash from trans people? Sorry if I've got my TRAs mixed up.

An organisation that puts out that incorrect '1 in 10 people' statistic is actively spreading misleading information about the condition they are supposed to help with. I'm sure the new CEO will sort that out...

@AlisonDonut I don't know anything about him, apart from.the fact that he's a man who thinks TWAW. I was responding to.those people who said a man can't represent/advocate for women's health, which I don't agree with.

I like what @FlirtsWithRhinos says.

Jodie is hook line and sinker a believer that gender is far more important than a person’s sex so it does not surprise me that she approached Steph for the role.

I have no objection to a man being the CEO of a charity supporting a female need if he is committed, effective and ensures it's women's understanding of their needs that sets his agenda not his own assumptions.

If that man happened to wear male-cut dresses and makeup not because he associates them with womanhood but just because he likes them and thinks men should be able to wear them as well as women, that is also totally fine.

But I do not believe a man, or indeed anyone, who displays disordered thinking about womanhood, women or women's lives is an appropriate choice.

A man who believes womanhood is a personality trait and thereby blinds himself to the huge impact being born female has on our lives is displaying hugely disordered thinking about womanhood, women and women's lives and for that reason alone should not be CEO of any charity supporting a female need, let alone one tied so closely to female biology.

There's that phrase isn't there, about a lovely warm bath of someone else's oppression.

He is using women’s pain to validate his pathetic identity

Or insist that blind people recognise that someone with self identified blindness is just as 'valid' as someone who is actually blind, and that those actually blind people recognise them as more oppressed and important to centre, due to people not fully appreciating the vulnerability of someone who self identifies as blind.

Just asking, did you pretend to be blind for this charity work?

I imagine she didn't turn up outside events for blind people with a set of people with abusive placards to protest them, either.

Given Steph has made a brilliant start by making 2 relevant typos in their first post, this seems to be an appointment made mostly for Instagram. If they are one of the vanishingly rare males who have endo it's odd it hast been mentioned before.

Shows the danger of assuming that any old thing is a meaningful organisation to talk to. Two friends who go to the gym together deciding to make up a charity or community interest company or whatever it is shouldn't have any special voice in local healthcare etc.

He hates Mumsnet too, unsurprisingly. All those women talking. Tsk tsk.

The desire to put one's fist through a screen just because some disobedient women aren't convinced by you is such lady behaviour.
