Transmisogyny and Labour

[ItsAllGoingToBeFine]

They are losing but they are determined to do as much harm as they can before they do. It is imperative the Labour leadership speaks up against transphobic rhetoric; that we as a party amplify the voices of our trans sisters; that we root out transphobia and transmisogyny from the movement. We are the party of equality and it’s essential we remain so. Let 2018 be the year trans people get the representatives we deserve in politics – let’s have a trans-led resistance, educating our activists to dismantle transphobic arguments on the local level – let’s terf out the transphobes

'Transmisogyny' is presumably bias against TIFs, given that TIMs don't have any gynaes to be mis about?

And I read that as 'amplifying our transistors'.
Well, if LM is a transistor, I'm a resistor.

I get confused between transmisogyny and cissexism.

What's the difference?

“When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’

’The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’

’The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master — that’s all.'

I thought labours slogan was - for the many not the few?
How do the numbers stack up on women (many) versus trans (few)? Surely this is entirely out of step with their overarching philosophy.

Good point, sexnotgender

I know who claims to have written it. I would love to know who actually did write it

As women's officer, has Lilliam managed to go even one day without whining about or attacking actual women?

Uurgh what a tissue of lies.

Transmisogyny is the alleged double discrimination experienced by transgender-identifying males because they are allegedly oppressed for being both transgender and transwomen. It's a transgender-identifying male appropriation of the intersectional concept of misogynoir (misogyny plus racism experienced by some groups of women due to their sex and race).

Cissexism is the alleged oppression of transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming people that they claim occurs when gender-critical people tell them that it is not possible to change biological sex.

Has Lily done anything at all for women yet? Maybe just change the title to trans officer?

"Why are some feminists still failing transwomen?"
A fuck the fuck off nearly escaped my lips in frontof my 2 yr old

Thanks for the link, I read as far as 'by Lily Madigan'.

Thank you!

Here are my definitions:

transmisogyny - commonly-used ingredient in genderist word salads

cissexism - commonly-used ingredient in genderist word salads

I think mine are quite accurate!

No mention of his trans brothers then? It's all about the transwomen, so odd how in trans world the roles of male and female are reversed.

I can feel my foot itching to kick Madigan up the bum.

This is so true.

I was going to say 'well, it's not Lily Madigan' because there are too many long words, but maybe Lily Madigan with a thesaurus.
