Kathleen Stock - Gender cannot be a get-out-of-jail card for violent men

A typically great article by Kathleen which covers a few matters/ cases that have been discussed here, so I’ve put on a separate thread.

“we are talking about an ineffable but highly potent substance, gender identity, known to paralyse even high-functioning minds upon first contact. “🤣

Gender cannot be a get-out-of-jail card for violent men

Good to see the quiet bits about all this being spelled out in the MSM.

Some of them are predators, and it is time we started asking whether a higher percentage of trans identified men are predators than the general male population. (MN I am using TiM here to make it clear some of these men are not genuine in their claims to be trans). There have been so many cases recently of men claiming trans identities being found guilty of horrific crimes.

I've seen statistics shared on here that show the percentage of trans identifying prisoners convicted of violent/sexual crime is way higher than that of the general prison population.

It's in the article: 70% vs 19%.

"Still, there remains a general reluctance in polite society to spell out a point that grows more obvious with every news story about a “woman” arrested for paedophilia, voyeurism or sex attacks. So I’ll say it. We need to responsibly face the fact that certain men are attracted to identifying as women because they are already psychologically unstable; and the stories about how any subsequent predatory behaviour or aggression comes only from “societal transphobia” or “repressing who I really was” is a load of, well, balls".

Hear hear. Kathleen.

Stonewall created the trans umbrella and have welcomed all comers alike. Some of them are predators, and it is time we started asking whether a higher percentage of trans identified men are predators than the general male population.

As a mother my number one job is to keep my children safe. The time is coming soon when I will have to teach them that men are one of the biggest dangers they will face, and that almost every woman they will ever meet will have had at least one really bad experience at the hands of a man.

This is why teaching our daughters that TWAW, and the most vulnerable and that they must be kind is so fucking dangerous. We are lining them up like lambs to the slaughter.

Thanks so much for share. Such a great piece; so clear. I particularly liked her summary because she's so right, we do know this stuff, and we've known it for a long time. It's refreshing to see an academic who is happy to acknowledge we have common sense when it comes to safeguarding and we shouldn't be afraid to use it, especially when it IS backed up by evidence. As opposed to so many who want to try to convince ordinary people they couldn't possibly understand basic stuff because they haven't studied it at university level.
