For voting Tory

[Whatismypasswordthen]

I know what the Tories are and no, I don't like it. But I'm a woman, I have daughters and I come from generations of women who've been abused and dismissed because of their sex. I want better for my girls but I can't do it on my own. I need a government who will (at least give lip service to) supporting me. Am I a Tory? no. But the last thing women need is to be fighting their own government for basic recognition, so Tory it is.

Have you even read that quotation? It claims that the Equality Act protects women's single sex spaces and exemptions.

Say what.

We don't even have single sex rape crisis any more because men have fought their way to the top. A trans woman without a GRC successfully holds a post reserved for women and has told women that we need to 'reframe our trauma' if we don't want men involved in our rape crisis care.

Dodds hasn't got a clue what she's talking about.

Nor have you.

For those who are not aware of how men can get into the position of the head of women's rape crisis in a position which is reserved for women under the Equality Act.

Why do you insist on accusing critics of the Tory government of being TRAs, mens rights activist apologists and wanting men in women's single sex spaces and throwing women and children under the bus?

Christ, you’re rude. Seriously rude.

Rwanda being a safe country to deport refugees to is likely to become a legal fact. The state of Indiana voted to make pi = 3.2 a legal fact.
"Legal facts" are sometimes bullshit.

Anyone who is putting the rights of men to be in women's single sex spaces above the needs of women, in spite of all of the evidence of the harms to women, is in my mind, an activist at this point. This includes those who use it as political capital.

If you really were an advocat for women's rights you would say enough's enough. How many women need to be harmed?

Why because I believe that women should have single sex rape care?

I think Dodds is ignorant and rude about women's needs.

And I think you are also prepared to throw women under the bus.

If you find that rude that's on you. I think it's the truth.

I mean how dare a woman stand up for the right of women to have single sex rape crisis support?

How rude?

Won't we think of the men?

This is what you wrote in response to one of my posts @lifeturnsonadime. I advocate for women and children. I say enough is enough. You accused me of this nonsense.^^

Why?

Once again, please read posts instead of making up stuff that posters haven't said.

I don't know what kind of advocacy you do for women and children because i don't know you off of these threads.

I do know that you have told women that we should vote to ensure the Tories are out (or words to that effect) and have at least implied that we should ignore the harms of Labour who are the party most likely to get in in the next general election because the Tories should be ousted at all costs.

What I am trying to explain in this thread is at this point this comes across as activism. What you are saying to women is that we should ignore things that harm us or our children because getting the Tories out should come at all costs.

I don't agree. I am very concerned that women's rights and the rights of children should be an acceptable price to pay to oust the Tories.

Instead I'm asking for voters to advocate for our rights to local candidates who appear to be claiming that women do not care about these issues.

That wasn't a response to anything you have posted.

Men with a GRC who say they are women are still men.

They are getting positions of power in rape crisis for fucks sake.

We have women who have been raped in the UK with nowhere to go because they can't 'reframe their trauma'.

If you can't see the problem here I really cant help you.

I'm frankly aghast at the number of women here that would vote Tory on a single issue.

The Tories couldn't give a fig about women. Not a jot.

Yes, they have said women are women. Great. Solidarity.

Name me one policy in 14 years that has backed that up.

Name me one policy in 14 years that has helped women's cause.

Name me any bleeding policy that has helped women and children in the last 14 years of this government.

It's just words. Empty words. Easy words, backed up by sweet fuck all.

Mhridul Whadwa is a male who managed to get a job reserved for women without a GRC.

So we have a legal male who heads off a rape crisis centre telling women to reframe their trauma.

No issue, right?

I love you.

You're quoting yourself? 😕

That was in response to dime

Yes deliberately. Do you have anything substantive to say about the failures of political parties to protect women and children or do you prefer scolding women who point it out?

Scolding? 😂
Christ

So do you have anything substantive to say or not?

To you? No

We need to get rid of the Tories because of the harm they have done and continue to do to women and children. Me saying that doesn't make me a TRA or MRA. It doesn't mean I want men in women's spaces. It means that I want rid of the Tories. The party that put men into women's spaces. The party that have destroyed women's rights and circumstances for the past 14 years.

I say the Tories need to go because they hate women and are damaging to us and our children. Why do you smear Tory critics and make up shit, rather than addressing their actual posts@lifeturnsonadime?

So why comment at all?

I think you are misunderstanding me and / or are deliberately missing the point?

Why are women's rights to be a sex class a price worth paying?

Why shouldn't we be able to put the opposition to task on this?

I have to agree with this post, it's just empty words as they think they can get more votes by pretending to give a toss about this issue.
Their track record on what they have already done or not done in the past 14 years they've been in power says everything.
It's time for change, not more of the same.
