JKR on men in women's jails

Another banger from the Queen of Twitter after she posted about the recent report on men in women's jails in Scotland.

The trans activist outrage that ensues on here whenever I share my belief that jailed women shouldn't be used as validation tools or emotional support props for trans-identified male sex offenders is as revealing as it's predictable.

Such activists can't bring themselves to concede that a man who was convicted of harming women/girls ought not to be incarcerated with the demographic to whom he is a proven danger, because if they do, all their stock arguments ('no sexual predator would bother to pretend to be trans', 'no trans woman has ever harmed a woman in a women's only space', 'there is no danger in making all single sex spaces unisex') are exposed as the lies they are. If they admit that even a single man isn't a woman because he says he is, the entire edifice of gender identity ideology crumbles. This leaves activists who rely on bullying and slogans with nowhere to go but 'you hate all trans people', 'so you're saying all trans people are rapists' and, of course, 'you are causing a trans genocide.'

I think this particular issue also causes conniptions because it threatens the activists' self image. These are people who preen themselves on their kindness and virtue, so acknowledging the truth - that they're indifferent to vulnerable women being assaulted or traumatised - threatens the idea they have of themselves. They therefore double down. The prisoners complaining aren't really afraid of rape or voyeurism or violence at all, they say. They're 'not exactly delicate flowers', as one self-identified empath put it.

If you support putting violent and sexually predatory men into women's prisons, you are knowingly forcing those women to live in fear of, and, in some proven cases, to suffer abuse that many of them will have endured pre-incarceration. You are not kind. You are not righteous. Women have the basic human right not to suffer cruel and unusual punishment. #WomensRightsAreHumanRights

Certainly! Here’s the opening scene of a thrilling play:

Title: “The Dino Catalyst”

Setting: A dimly lit underground laboratory. The air smells of chemicals and forgotten secrets. The lab is cluttered with beakers, microscopes, and ancient scrolls. A large steel door stands at the back, leading to an even deeper chamber.

Characters:

  • Dr. Evelyn Grant: A brilliant geneticist, dedicated to unraveling the mysteries of the past.
  • Professor Malcolm Kane: A skeptical physicist who believes science has its limits.
  • Lab Assistant, Jane: Young, eager, and slightly clumsy.

Scene: The lab is abuzz with activity. Dr. Grant hunches over a microscope, examining a vial of iridescent liquid. Jane scurries around, organizing test tubes.

Dr. Evelyn Grant: (muttering) “Come on, Jane. We’re on the brink of a breakthrough. The DNA from these ancient fossils could change everything.”
Jane: “Yes, Dr. Grant! I’ve never seen anything like it. The energy readings are off the charts.”
Jane accidentally knocks over a vial. The liquid spills onto her gloved hand.
Jane: “Oh no! I—I dropped it!”
Dr. Grant rushes over, concern etching her face.
Dr. Evelyn Grant: “Jane, are you all right?”
Jane: “I… I feel strange. My skin—it’s tingling.”
Jane’s eyes widen as her fingers elongate, claws emerging. Scales ripple across her arms.
Jane: “Dr. Grant, what’s happening to me?”
Dr. Evelyn Grant: “Jane, that vial contained radioactive dinosaur DNA. It’s rewriting your genetic code!”
Jane’s body convulses. She grows taller, her spine elongating. Her lab coat tears as dinosaur-like features emerge.
Jane: “I can feel it—the power! I’m becoming something more.”
Professor Kane enters, staring in shock.
Professor Malcolm Kane: “Evelyn, what have you done?”
Dr. Evelyn Grant: “It wasn’t intentional! We were trying to unlock ancient abilities, but this… this is beyond our control.”
Jane roars, her eyes glowing with newfound strength.
Jane: “I am DinoJane, and I will protect this world!”
The steel door creaks open, revealing darkness. The adventure begins.
^^
And so, the stage is set for a tale of scientific curiosity, transformation, and supercharged dinosaurs. 🦖🔬✨

Steph Richards also got served by JKR now in a great illustration of what she was talking about as Richards claimed no-one is asking to put rapists and murderers in women's jails. JKR just quoted Nandy famous trainwreck in response. Getting more glorious.

Steph seems to have a very short memory… (Taking oestrogen can do that to male humans, so…)

@Emotionalsupportviper I'm so sorry. It was for both of you, but I worded it badly! To make it up to you...

Apology accepted!

And as you point out, it is number of women working together for the good of all which has led to the birth of the most Terrible of All Lizards.

(I especially like the "Steampunk" version.)

This is why we've got transactivists all over this board derailing and wailing today. The Telegraph reported JKR's tweet 5 hours ago. There are currently over 2,600 comments under the article and they're universally in favour of her comments and critical of the media for effectively lying to the public:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/02/27/jk-rowling-criticises-trans-cat-killer-scarlet-blake-woman/?li_source=LI&li_medium=for_you

Looks like the wheels are coming off in plain sight.

Brilliant

Maybe people are finally seeing the problem with pretending that sex can be changed and men can 'become' on a feeling and by wearing a skirt 🤔. The nonsense is being exposed.

I point out to people the cat murdering, person murdering vile person is a man and always has been and always will be.
Does anyone want any man in safe spaces, just because HE decides he want to play at being a woman.

Aah!

You're right, of course,@fromorbit - how it all comes flooding back from my terfopalaeontology* lessons in primary school.

We were all agog at the way that legend had it that she was just an ordinary kind woman,being kind in a kind sort of way when she dug up the dinosaur skellington when planting magic beans in the garden. (Or was it magic "we-just-want-to pees"? I forget). Anyway - she noticed an eerie purple, white and green glow, went to investigate, and the rest is herstory.

Grin

Edited to add. *Or was it paleoterfology lessons?

fromorbit · 27/02/2024 19:09

You are getting Superterf and Terfsauraus Regina mixed up.

Terfsauraus Regina was the woman who was bitten by a radioactive dinosaur skeleton and gained the power of becoming a huge rights hoarding dinosaur when she gets angry. She gets angry a lot!

Along with Captain Facts, Supereality, Science Girl and Biologicus they are all members of the Tervengers.

I think SuperTERF’s origin story is that she was a regular woman who posted something innocuous on the internet like “men aren’t women” and all of the bile and hate she receives through the screen causes her metamorphosis into SuperTERF! Defender of women’s rights! Sayer of the unspeakable (trans woman are men)! Safeguardian of children!

Sure, here’s a short story based on your prompt:

Once upon a time, in the heart of a bustling city, lived a woman named Karen. She was an ordinary woman, living an ordinary life. She had a job, a family, and a small circle of friends. Her life was filled with the usual ups and downs, joys and sorrows, triumphs and failures.

One day, Karen stumbled upon a discussion on the internet about women’s rights. Intrigued, she decided to join the conversation. She posted a simple, innocuous comment: “Women deserve equal rights and opportunities.”

The response was immediate and overwhelming. Some agreed with her, but many others disagreed, responding with anger and hostility. Karen was taken aback by the intensity of the reactions. She had merely voiced her opinion, yet it had sparked such a fierce debate.

But instead of retreating, Karen felt a strange transformation within her. The negativity she received didn’t weaken her; instead, it fueled her determination. She began to read more, learn more, and speak more about women’s rights. She started attending rallies, signing petitions, and even organizing events in her community.

As she delved deeper into the cause, Karen’s transformation became more apparent. She was no longer just Karen; she had become Super Middle-Aged Woman, a defender of women’s rights. She was not afraid to voice her opinions, no matter how unpopular they might be. She was not afraid to stand up for what she believed in, no matter how much opposition she faced.

Super Middle-Aged Woman became a beacon of hope for many. She was a voice for the voiceless, a champion for the oppressed. She was a sayer of words that needed to be said, a safeguardian of children who needed protection.

Through her journey, Karen realized that her transformation was not caused by the negativity she received on the internet. It was caused by her own determination, her own courage, her own belief in the cause. She realized that she had always been Super Middle-Aged Woman; she just needed a push to unleash her potential.
And so, Karen continues her fight, standing tall as Super Middle-Aged Woman. She may be just one person, but she is making a difference, one word, one action, one day at a time. And that, in itself, is a victory.

Of course she's called Karen👿
