“Heated Rivalry” author Rachel Reid on J. K. Rowling - “the bar is pretty high in how evil you have to be,” “ I’m extremely the opposite of everything she believes”

We've belonged in single sexed spaces. We continue to belong in single sexed spaces.

I don't want to 'remove you from culture' 🙄 I just know that you haven't changed sex. It's not hard, just use unisex bogs if the mens bogs don't appeal to you. Be a decent human being and obey the law regarding single sex spaces.

No. Does everything sex realists understand have to have a 1:1 correlation?

So, wait, you identify as being female because you were bullied by a bunch of mean boys?

Isn't that something to unpack in therapy rather than in surgery?

Slave trade was legal in the UK until it wasn’t. Section 28 was law.

Women know who are women.

Sex realists are in the middle of a transient project to remove trans people from culture. They experienced some luck in being able to insert leadership in critical departments. With the support of religious conservatives, changes in law were won. However, the status of trans people has not changed. The status quo shall prevail eventually.

And again, that some female people consented to a male person accessing female single sex provisions is irrelevant. Consent isn’t transferable so any female person consenting should not have done so.

No one who was born male is a woman.

It's not a popularity contest. It's just fact.

The 'woman' I understand seems more popular than the narrow reproductive-focused version sex realists understand.

I have been treated by medical professionals my entire life. Some knew of my transition, others did not. I am quite alive and healthy.

I think by virtue of not having the foggiest idea what a woman is.

No, you are men, and if a doctor truly treated you as a woman it would be life threatening.

Oh boy. By virtue of...?

Trans women don't feel entitled, we are women.

Girls were so frightened or socialised of me they grabbed me by the arms and dragged me in before I even started treatment. Boys were so welcoming and inclusive they waited by the nurse's toilet for me to arrive so they could share their inclusivity. There are 1000s of additional experiences that would align on one side of the gender division.

On behalf of the patriarchy, I hereby re-admit you and all transwomen back into manhood, and apologise for the clerical error that led you believe you couldn't be a man if you preferred stereotypically female clothing. We let the work experience lad have a go at maintaining the manhood boundaries and it caused no end of trouble.

Women were too frightened or too socialised to speak up against your invasions.

This has played out time and time again. Remember the swimming volunteer, Anne Combes who wandered through the changing rooms where young female swimmers were changing in between competitions? I remember the fact that these girls were absolutely terrified of speaking up against his presence for fear of being labelled bigoted transphobes.

British Swimming eventually changed their rules after parents complained.

The path of least resistance, hmm? Women were too frightened or too socialised to speak up against your invasions. And now that women are speaking up for themselves you don't like it. You don't like women womaning our way, only your way.

Your claim that sex realist arguments aren't inclusive is just the same sour grapes. Sex realism is inclusive of the specific sex. Woman and female are terms inclusive of ALL women, however
they present and whatever they believe about themselves. No, they are not terms inclusive of male people, just as cats and felines are not terms inclusive of donkeys and equines.

Speaking of which, that takes place a fortnight tomorrow and there's a shedload of tickets not sold yet.

Edited for splung

Exactly. Inclusive does not mean everyone in the same space as so many people spouting it seem to think. It means there should be a space for everyone.

And furthermore, not everything HAS to be inclusive.

They could play at the Trans Mission gig at Wembley. They're sure to find an appreciative audience of likeminded individuals there.

Sex realist arguments are reality. it's right there in in the words, and it includes the whole human race because there are only 2 sexes. How much more inclusive can you get. 🤯

I must say, "sex fantasist" would make an amazing band name!😄

If onepost is using 'sex realist' in a derogatory way, does that mean that the opposite (a 'sex fantasist'?) is meant to be a good thing to be?

And all the wheedling and arguing in the world won't get you entry if you don't belong.
