Good Law Project to report Sex Matters over 'deviant' remark

I notice that you're avoiding the point and pulling out the insults

Are you suggesting bigoted trends that are repeated routinely aren't noticeable?

Maybe not by bigots I suppose.

You see what you want to see, I guess...

All you're doing is cementing a connection in people's minds!

Interesting that when you wanted to mention terrorists you immediately reached for Muslims though @Baileyonice

Why was that?
Not against a bit of stereotypical thinking yourself.

There were no transwomen in my post

Again….

That you choose to pretend common social associations to words don't exist is your denial issue.

Again.....

SM are talking about men who exhibit deviant behaviour. That's what their actual words say.

If you choose to read it as all "trans women are deviants" that's your comprehension issue.
And are you saying trans women are men?

A minority doesn't represent the majority so its not fair to categorise trans women as 'deviant' just like its not fair to categorise all muslims as terrorists.

Aren't gender critical people supposed to be anti stereotyping?

@Baileyonice I would be interested in your answers to these:

What about the men who said they were transwomen just for the time they were in women’s toilets for the purpose of sexually assaulting and voyeurism on women?

What about all the men with SHPOs which bans them from female and unisex toilets for years? I have never found any data on a woman banned from public toilets.

What about the men who are opportunistic voyeurs? There are thousands of these cases. 100% of voyeurs (in all places) in prison are men (as known May 25). The number of school staff convicted of spying on children in toilets with cameras I have got up to double figures with a google search. All male.

Criminal behaviour in toilets is so sexed that it is absolutely right and proper to question a man going into the women’s toilets.

Edit to point out: most men are good men. The men above deviate from the norm.

This plan to go after Sex Matters may have implications for the defamation case Sarah is bringing against the fox basher. Remember folks Sarah's garden is looking for seeds. She now has a top barrister to represent her.

Sarah Phillimore

What this foolish man has done in conceding defamation and serious harm, is that he is relying on truth/public interest to defeat my claim. So, this may be the first court outing where the Judge does have to explicitly engage with the credibility of gender identity ideology.

Thread on the case:

I think the word deviant underscores the antisocial, scoff-law aspect of the action. Driving over the speed limit is illegal but it isn't an effort to flout authority and intimidate women with one's bodily presence, daring them to turn you out to your face. The men now invading women's spaces are seeking to exploit the very vulnerability that the law is meant to protect.

It's outrageous that the trans community (and its supporters) are rallying around this behaviour and it should be condemned with the harsh language it deserves.

The difference being the word 'woman' isn't being used to suggest nefariousness.

Lol. An argument on the common perception of the word "deviant" whilst refusing to accept that "woman" already has a common acknowledged meaning or perception.

Yes, I think wilful damage to public property may count as deviant. 😁

Heh! I think I've said before that I reckon Joe Orton (or Dario Fo) would have had fun with all this.

Whose behaviour definitely was deviant.

My ears also remain unpricked by the word 'deviant'.
It made me think of Joe Orton

AI Overview:

Deviant behavior refers to actions or beliefs that violate established social norms and cultural expectations. It is subjective, context-dependent, and can range from minor informal infractions (e.g., unconventional clothing) to serious formal offenses like violent crime. It is not inherently good or bad.

Just leaving this ^ here for anyone who might have missed it, even though it was only one page ago.

yawn. Who cares what these losers do? they never get anywhere.

The more you say things like that, the more revealing it is, Baileyonice:
insisting that 'deviant' implies 'sexual & or other practices deemed abnormal, obsessive, or repulsive' is a very specific piece of word association.

'Deviant' means deviating from a norm - you are ascribing the 'sexual/obsessive/repulsive' subtexts to Sex Matters' use of the word.

'the deviant behaviour of accessing a female-only space'
is a perfectly clear use of the word 'deviant' to describe... what it says in the next 6 words! It doesn't demand much close textual analysis, it's all there in the same sentence.

You keep trying to attach subtexts to it and make it all about sex and repulsiveness and transpeople, when it's clearly about men, however they identify, accessing women-only spaces,

Speak for yourself!
You seem determined to make a pervy connection.
My ears remain unpricked by the word "deviant".

If you have an issue with the genuine meaning of the word, take it up with The English Language.

But the GLP is presumably run by literate people. They have no such excuse for misunderstanding a perfectly straightforward and unambiguous statement. Unless perhaps they want to mislead the less sophisticated.
