What have we established?
Are we back to before my time, Trans people are just a form of Cosplay except for the <1% who do have both sets of genitals. Can we say it?
No more seeing Eddy Izzard in the ladies loo?
I guess it is not that simple, what else needs to happen?

Over the last few days it has become apparent that not only were we right about the harm this ideology causes, we were also right about the reverse ferreting and rewriting of history we predicted would happen once the harms fully came to light. We told people who promoted the ideology that they needed to start looking for excuses as to why they promoted the sterilisation of children and we told them we wouldn't forget. JKR in particular is doing a stellar job of reminding them.

However, I wish it had never come to this and children had not been harmed/women losing jobs and abused etc. It will never make sense that it has got this far and is still not over.

What about proof, roof, belief?

TERF is an acronym rather than an initialism, and no reason to assume that it would follow the same rule as elf. Both hoofs and hooves are acceptable plural forms of hoof.

Changing the f to a v in this instance makes no sense as the f clearly stands for feminist. Doubly so if you treat it as an initialism rather than an acronym as you would then be saying T.E.R.Vs

Might make a t shirt saying, Cass proves TERF’s are right

I would leave out the apostrophe if I were you.

Proud to be a terf.

Lauren Stoner bears an uncanny resemblance to the infamous Brighton Baby Shouter. Are they the same person?

I don't think so. Baby screamer was called Carly Mae Kavanagh. But I just googled her and you're right, the likeness is uncanny!

Edited to remove link, because it shared something else entirely! You can find it by searching for her.

Dammit all, she's so gloves off now.

TERF is correct (it’s an initialism) but terf is used more like a noun, so then it goes the same way as hoof/hooves or elf/elves.

Which I quite like because it makes us sound like magical, forest dwelling creatures.

@KellieJaysLapdog I know it's unfeminist to comment on a woman's appearance, but did Lauren Stoner inherit those glasses from Mary Whitehouse?

I think they might be a pair of Layla Moran’s patented Magical Gendered-Soul-Seeing Spectacles?

Vile, and I woman remark. It just reminds me that such a large proportion of the new trans women are desperately keen to portray themselves as trashy. God knows why.

Yeah,that was part of the problem.

Terven also sounds like a modern coven.

Doesn't say if those posts about Mermaids are supportive or not though.

The plural of TERF is Dinosaurs hoarding rights like eggs!

I'm not sure I'd be keen on a collective of feminist women being veminists, so #theterfswereright seems correct to me.

The celebration may be premature. There's a long way to go yet and the pendulum could swing back but my god it's good to blow off some steam.
