Except when "we" can't:

Note the weasel words of the thread don't actually apologise for allowing terrible people to decide the victim wasn't female because she wasn't sufficiently meeting a stereotypical view of how women should look in their bigoted opinions. The fault for behaving in a bigoted fashion is only that of the bigots and no-one else.

That brings back memories. I was one of the first accounts on twitter that FWS folllowed. They liked and retweeted me daily until I publicly tweeted that I was a transallyscot. Then they blocked me.

Such tolerance.

Just to note that every other Scottish feminist still followed me, liked, retweeted me etc. Whether they agreed with that part of my feminism or not.

Encourage who? The one who is getting piled on? Me? Is that who you are personally attacking?

No. I'm suggesting the people replying to you are needling you unnessessarily about something that obviously matters to you, and that they should just drop it.

It doesn't matter to me. Like this thread. My overwhelming emotion is pity.

I shared a memory which seems to have triggered several people on this thread. I can only apologise. I didn't realise people were this fragile. Take care all and hope you can find other ways to spend your time soon x

you’re the one still salty about someone blocking you. Have you tried taking up a hobby?

As for being fragile, well, we're not the ones who claim being correctly sexed is LitErAl GeN-O-ciDe. So there's that.

Or seeing feminist/suffragette colour ribbons is "literal violence".

How am I salty? I couldn’t care less. For “strong women”, you all have amazingly thin skins if you can’t see another woman’s amusing anecdote.

On the contrary, I think everyone is very amused by your recent posting.

I do feel a little unsure that this is the right thread for joking around though.

That is not in any way to say stop posting or joking on FWR, just maybe not on a thtead about a murdered woman.

However, this is entirely your call of course.

If you didn’t care less, why bring it up?the word amusing doing a lot of lifting there.
