Starmer's "misogyny" dilemma

Isn't it lovely that Keir Starmer had a double page spread in today's Metro, all about his "person mission" to tackle violence against women and call out misogyny.
Such a shame that the poor man doesn't actually know what a woman is! He thinks a man can have a uterus, and that men can become women. So which women is he concerned about i wonder. The ones who regularly get raped and killed by men, or the ones who abuse and bully women who dare to call a man..... A man, like M P Rosie Duffield for example.

The notion that a person can “identify” into being a woman is one of the most regressive and misogynistic things a person can but into. Those people have no right to say they want to stop misogyny when they themselves perpetuate it

You are definitely not being unreasonable.

Unfortunately there are no political parties in the UK that actually have women's backs.

The fact that Labour has not unequivocally got behind the supreme court judgement which is clear that sex refers to biological sex AND has persisted to support a trial of puberty blockers will never cease to amaze me.

Not to mention Rosie Duffield, as you have already pointed out.

Women are second class citizens. Our rights are secondary to mens' always, no matter how they identify. If* *trans women weren't men then I cannot imagine they would have been able to run roughshod over actual laws and social conventions.
