Has anyone come across this? Looks as if it launched today. I haven't looked at all of it but it appears to have collected a lot of material together that might be useful when signposting. www.peaktrans.org/

That's Maria MacLachlan's website, isn't it? The feminist who was attacked at Speakers Corner.

Hi everyone

Thanks for your kind words. Hope you enjoy the site. Onwards and upwards...or wherever.

EamonnWright · 28/12/2017 13:19

Marie is there a gofundme or something similar? You shouldn't have to shoulder any costs considering the work you do.

Yes if you have one of those “buy me a coffee” type PayPal buttons I would happily help.

MariaMacLachlan · 28/12/2017 17:31

What a kind thought. I have added a donate button to the front page - every penny helps. Thank you.

Flung a few quid there. Excellent site.

There's obviously some funny stuff on the site and ive only really glanced but one that struck me was someone saying they were sick of the circular argument about what is a women. It's surreal isn't it.

My Ma is a woman, birthed 4 big boys (my eldest brother was something mental like 11 pound weight) rared us (she still is tbh) had a stroke in her early 40s and had her gall bladder out a fortnight ago and is bursting her backside to get back to work at 61. I'm on my own with my kids but I've never ever claimed to be a single parent because I'm not. My Ma is there. People say it in a throw away manner but I literally couldn't have done it without her, they would be in care if it wasn't for her.

Am I supposed to believe that the little prick in the everyday feminism video is a woman like my mother? I actually get irrationally angry about this nonsense.

Keep up the excellent work Wine

Fantastic site, but bloody hell, working through just a few of the articles is mind-boggling. I looked at the detransitioning section first - a seemingly forbidden area when it comes to trans activists, and came across a lawyer who was man, then woman, then man, now woman again and is quoted as saying:

"‘Not only am I a real woman; I would go even further to say that a transgender woman has more claim to womanhood that a “biological” woman. A transgender woman has reached womanhood by the arduous path of achievement rather than by accident of nature. Those who climb Mount Everest have a greater claim to winning that peak than someone accidentally dropped there by helicopter."

Well he can fuck right off Angry. He has no concept of how difficult it can be to be a girl child growing up in society to become a woman. And the fact that he doesn't understand it is proof that he isn't and never will be a woman.

EamonnWright · 28/12/2017 19:39

@Maryz I've nearly launched my phone a few times. It seems so ridiculous I half expect Jeremy Beadle to bounce out telling me the whole thing is a piss take.

The best move they ever done was get that T added onto LGB. Most folk are heart scared of being labelled a homophobe imo. On that note the behaviour of the Gay community and their groups has been an absolute disgrace regarding this and not one thin dime will ever leave me and go to any Gay bar/club or organisation ever again.

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 28/12/2017 20:24

Those who climb Mount Everest have a greater claim to winning that peak than someone accidentally dropped there by helicopter.

Yeah. Helicopters can't get to the top of Everest. Famously.

I love it when a trans-analogy doesn't come together. Grin

Might be my favourite thing I have ever read. Grin Hmm
It’s like something from Black Mirror.

Lazylouse · 29/12/2017 11:49

I can only assume that is why so few women are in the Pink News heros list, the transwomen are "better" women.

WichBitchHarpyTerfThatsMe · 29/12/2017 13:53

Thanks for this Maria. It's great to have a site that contains a good overview of all the issues and facts, where people can be directed to without having to navigate multiple sites to get the info.

Well done.
