I know all the arguments in the FWR echo chamber. I used to be one of you. But actually when you step outside it you realise a lot of what gets said on that board is a result of the stalwarts winding each other up for years, rehashing the same arguments and patting each other on the back about how clever they are.
I say again, if you don't vote against the tories, who are doing more damage to women than anything else, you are the problem too.
So can you explain exactly how a law of self id, won't be a problem for women? And you can no longer use the argument of 'oh well other countries have self id and its fiiiiiiiine' because the evidence is emerging that its not fine (eg. Barbie Kardashian, WiSpa etc). So how will it not affect women?
I can't vote Labour because their politicians have completely discredited themselves in their desperate attempts to keep on the TWAW line. From Dawn Butler saying that babies are born without a sex, to Alex Sobel saying he doesn't believe women have the right to any single sex spaces (and going on to say 'we don't want your bigoted vote anyway), to Lisa Nandy saying that a male rapist should be allowed in a female prison if he identifies as a woman (i mean, WTF?) to Keir himself saying its 'not correct' to say that only women have a cervix.
Yes, that particular issue is important to me, but it's much bigger than that. These politicians have shown they will say anything, are willing to make it look like they have terrible judgement, that they don't even care about facts, if it means they are adhering to a certain dogma. And if they do it on this issue, what else will they do it on? I can't vote for that. I've always voted Labour so I'm a bit stuck really.
