The mass lobby of parliament by trans activists took place yesterday. Does anyone know if their MP took part? From what I've read, Nadia Whittome, Sian Berry and Carla Denyer were in attendance (no surprises there). Some of the photos were interesting...

'Coquettish and prim' is definitely a favourite look. You see lots of variations of it.

So it's a fetish. OMG. And any woman wants to support these men in female only spaces? Euugh.

First photo is funny. How can I tell the transwomen from the woman? Sooo difficult. The transwomen look like a bad day at Transwomen Institute, too. The second photo is equally odd. Why are men dressing up as 1930s librarians, is it a new fetish? And it is so difficult to work out which are the men, no?

The one on the left does look rather like they may have had some fashion inspiration from characters like Yomiko Readman; the glasses, clothing colours and style are very much giving anime librarian.

That's a seriously worrying photo. Looks like a schoolgirl. Waving their fetishes about again? And women support these loons?

It's just unbelievable how a female MP looks at these three absolute muppets who are clearly not well, creepy and volatile based on what they spout online (including threats of physical violence and death to women who disagree with them) and thinks "yep, photo opportunity to show how progressive and kind I am".

How does she square this in her own head? What sort of cognitive dissonance is going on for her not to immediately see what the rest of us see but ignore the Spidey senses (I'd definitely have my Spidey senses tingling around these three) and pose with them? Surely she must know what they've said and done in the past? Who they are associated with? I'm sure somebody discovered a connection with Pot Noodle and Bash Back, these people are dangerous.

I echo what @PriOn1 said above - I would not feel comfortable walking past them in the street never mind in an intimate space like a changing room or bathroom. Especially as their own online behaviour has shown they are prone to violent outbursts constantly. Kirsty is very, very deluded and frankly, utterly contemptible for going along with this.

Edit to say, also I'd just like to add that without any context, I showed my husband this photo and he jumped backwards in shock and went oh FFS! That was his immediate reaction (of horror) and he's a 6ft4 broad shouldered, robust man. He said he wouldn't like to come across them in real life never mind a woman!

Edited

The women who go along with this are doing so because their primary value is to stay true to the imagined 'progressive' poitical doctrines and values of their tribe. There is no integrity in this,though, plus there is a whole lot of cognitve dissonance involved in suppressing your instinctive knowledge and your intuition in order to permit your ideological thinking to triumph.

Nobody really thinks these men are women.

Is Euan the one wearing clothes from a 1950s jumble sale? Sorry, I don't know who he is (I live a sheltered life).

Euan Weddell aka Sophie Molly aka Sparkles aka Pot Noodle is the one on the left.

Euan has a certain distinctive style.

All these people free on a Wednesday to protest.

Amazing.

🤣🤣🤣 I laughed, thanks 🤣🤣🤣

I don’t think this lot would be in any danger using the men’s toilets- in fact, they’d probably rapidly have the place to themselves….

Ereshkigalangcleg · 11/09/2026 10:11

It actually hurts to see these supposedly professional women, who’ve been elected to represent their constituency, utterly beclowning themselves to this extent. I don’t like them, but they’re worth more than that.

I struggle to understand how people can say golly how vulnerable and at risk these poor people appear to be.

maybe I am missing something

At risk of people pointing and laughing?

ArabellaScott · 11/09/2026 07:56

Quite sure they are in some senses vulnerable and at risk.

From other men.

Doesn't mean that they are harmless.

I prefer how pot noodle dresses to the ridiculous short swingy skirts and dresses two of the others are wearing. At least he dresses age-appropriate and modestly given the venue. You'd think someone like Kennedy would have more sense than to dress like a hooker for an occasion like this. Maybe he can't help himself.

It's not working for him though. At all.

Here are a couple. We're expected to believe that the two women in these photos will be challenged in women's spaces because they have short hair. But there is no way of telling that the transwomen in the photos are male, therefore we shouldn't be able to have single sex spaces. It's completely unworkable 🤔

And you know if either Kirstie or Carla were walking alone at night down a dark street, turned and saw any of those following close behind, they wouldn’t think, phew, it’s a woman, I’m ok!

murasaki · 10/09/2026 21:41

The lad on the right is a big unit.

INeedAPensieve · 10/09/2026 18:36

I can actually smell Pot Noodle from that photo. I wonder if Kirsty had to hold her nose.

Just why would male rights be the hill that any of these ludicrous handmaidens would die on? Of all the problems in the world - climate change, species extinction, soil degradation, pollution, desertification, massive social and economic inequality...what these women choose to fight for is....more rights for men.
Men who already have exactly the same human rights as everyone else AND the extra rights relating to gender reassignment under the EA. And are, let's face it, not just male, but also white and middle class and with all the privilege that comes from having been born in the wealthy global north, AND with a direct line to those in power. Not even little boys living in poverty. But actual privileged full grown bloody males.
Wow. I mean seriously, just wow.

how can you be so unkind. Don't you know these men get very sad if they're not allowed to use women's changing rooms?
