this is fantastic news. The background to their story is however concerning. It should have never got this bad.

Over 1000 followers now (up from 427 when the screenshot above was taken).

I hate that this is necessary, but I am SO heartened by these three young women!

"“The language of TERF ideology is ever changing, always with the aim of sounding reasonable. If your approach to spotting and fighting TERFs is purely based on words and optics, then you are vulnerable to being taken onboard by a new dogwhistle or talking point. It’s not enough to disavow TERFs in words alone and say Trans Rights are Human Rights or Trans Women are Women. The only way to prevent yourself falling prey to TERF talking points is to develop a critical understanding of concepts like sex and gender and the systems of power and oppression that underly them. TERF ideology incorrectly analyses and obscures these relations, and the best defense is to have a better explanation… Trans liberation is a feminist fight and transfeminism is feminism we should all be doing. More than inclusion we should be aiming for liberation.”

This...is...downright...Orwellian.

I just read this on x. Thanks for starting the thread. More power to those young women!

What a comprehensive and excellently written, and also horrifying, article! Nick Wallis getting into all this could be a good thing.

Brave young women. What a shitshow it is.

There seems to be a correlation between university status and capture, with the most prestigious institutions the most doolally. I wonder why?

I love it. But I don’t love it. I love the fact it exists. I hate the fact it needs to specify ‘single sex society for women’.

Yes, this.

Is this why Jolyon is getting involved?

We are the Cambridge University Society of Women.
