Be Kind 2.0 and the "Persuasive TRA"

"I forsee full on throwing of things. Not necessarily violence against a person but vandalism and out of control marches."

There was that creepy TRA group, bash back, who committed some vandalism recently.

Then there's all the anti-woman protests that have happened anywhere women have congregated to speak about women's rights issues. The ones that come to the top of my mind are pretty much all of the Let Women Speak events, or the piss protests, or the locusts that were released at the LGB Alliance conference.

Edited to add that I totally agree that there's likely to be an escalation now things are not going entirely the TRA way any more.

Refusal to talk. NoDebate.
BeKind.
Verbal aggression and belittling.
Walking on eggshells eg loss of jobs.
Darvo.
Gaslighting aka mirroring.
Whining.

I forsee full on throwing of things. Not necessarily violence against a person but vandalism and out of control marches. The equivalence of throwing the phone at the wall, tipping over chairs and slamming doors. We have already seen some of the masked tras doing it but that's been counter protests rather than the main.

Ive noticed how it is becoming eerily silent like the calm before the storm. The waiting with baited breath for the other shoe to drop. Been there, done that.

My answer has become smaller and more simple over the years. I no longer argue or plead since the SC ruling. My answer is NO.

Quite.

TRAs mobilised pretty much the whole of corporate and civic society to dismantle women’s rights and our status as a category of people distinct from men on a global scale within a couple of decades. In Australia, women are no longer allowed to openly meet without including men. They’ve shown utter contempt for women and insulted us in a million different ways.

As far as I’m concerned TRAs can do their own bloody campaigning for fourth spaces. I won’t be lifting a finger.

This is an excellent idea. Forget waiting for the next tactic - let's launch this as a thing. now before anyone else gets in with something rubbish!

ETA or support dogs?

Perfect response to any requests surely?!
Sorry I tried to help but was called a bigot and can't risk that happening again
You really are getting the full womanly treatment tho - get used to being ignored and having to do everything yourself

Yeah, the mental health impact on women whose sports were trashed, or who encountered men in changing rooms, and the mental health impact on the parents and siblings of young people who suddenly 'went trans'.... I recall hearing next to nothing about any of that.

I remember once seeing an interview with Jayne Fae and Julie Bindel.
Jayne was all coiffed hair and jangling bracelets and makeup and big earrings and a floral top.
Julie was in a white shirt, black jacket, short hair, no jewellery.

It was instantly obvious which one was the man.

This is my view, too.
They've been so bloody horrible to women that they can stuff off and sort it out for themselves. Any inclination I ever had to help them (and it was there, once) has been whittled away bit by bit, with every pound I've put into a crowdfunder and every woman I've seen doxxed.

Has anyone listened to the podcast "Agree to disagree about gender"? Presented by a trans woman and a gender critical lesbian I think. I haven't had the time yet but I'm curious to see where the discussions land.

I think it goes with the types of personality disorders that are overrepresented in transgenderism.

I’ve also been pointing out the mirroring/gaslighting/argument reversals here and elsewhere for about a decade. It isn’t a new thing.

Definitely a no from me. Your analogy is spot on.

Mens issues are theirs to fix. I don't see a rush by TRAs to fix maternity services (which aren't purely about their own validation). Giving birth being the most dangerous day in a woman's life and has substantially worse stats than murdered transwomen in the UK.

So frankly they can fuck off.

I’m going to have the same attitude as they collectively display towards detransitioners. No one forced them to modify their bodies medically. They need to take responsibility for their own actions and the consequences that come with those freely taken actions.

Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.

Feels like the last one is a way off😐

I imagine the handbook could be well written by trans widows, as the emerging pattern looks like a macro level of what they experience at the micro level.
