Yes, wearing a dress is what defines a woman.

Dear little Stefonknee Wolsch could be bridesmaid.

picklemepopcorn · 21/03/2018 16:21

She's not claiming to be a man, she's just drawing attention to JK liking a post that JM thinks is patronising and dismissive. She's wrong, but she's allowed!

I like Jack. When you read her recipes, you get a much better sense of who she is as a person than twitter can ever give.

@onalongsabbatical TossDaily will eat you. Can you not identify as an ornamental iron fence instead? You could still be green.

I thought her Monroe leaving twitter was an excellent idea. I wish one of her real life friends would urge her to do so.

LangCleg · 21/03/2018 16:23

I think Jack is one of those non-binary/agender wiffle waffles. She sorely tries my patience but I honestly do think her heart is in the right place. It's just a somewhat confused heart.

Harry Potter is definitely real!

If wearing a dress makes someone a woman then I must be a man!

And Harry Potter is definitely real!

treaclesoda · 21/03/2018 16:26

Jack was apparently neither a man nor a woman a while back.

It's so confusing.

She seems very unhappy.

dworky · 21/03/2018 16:27

It appears she's lost it again. Calling anyone out for liking a tweet which highlights the very real problem of misogyny in The Labour Party is quite something. I genuinely have sympathy for her, she's very mixed up and struggles to remain stable.

VladmirsPoutine · 21/03/2018 16:30

Jack seems very unstable, to the point I reckon she might need professional help.

I don't gather from this tweet that she's now a man or trying to recruit JK Rowling.

It's a sad state of affairs all round as otherwise she's done pretty well for herself.

WazFlimFlam · 21/03/2018 16:30

Jack Monroe is gender non-binary though there Twitter feed claims they are now 'trans'.

I thought trans meant you had picked one or the other, but no, I have now seen that trans is used to mean anyone who isn't 'cis'. Which is even more confusing than ever before.

CisPinkHoodie · 21/03/2018 16:31

another one hoist by her own petard:

So changing sex = magic !

Well done Jack

How many name and gender changes can one person go through?

AcrossthePond55 · 21/03/2018 16:36

Jack was apparently neither a man nor a woman a while back.

Well to be honest, this describes my BFF's daughter. But she's only 17, and a very young 17 at that, soooooo........

FWIW I self identify as a very very pretty pony. And have done since I was a horse mad 4 year old. Just ask my mum who used to put up with me eating raw porridge oats and prancing around the living room making pony noises.

So there!

VladmirsPoutine · 21/03/2018 16:37

Battleax As many as they want. If you disagree then I'm afraid you are a bigot and have no place in 21st century society.

onalongsabbatical · 21/03/2018 16:38

@BaronessBomburst it's too late, I AM an artichoke. I have no choice. I have an artichoke's brain, you see. It's the truuff.

TheFirstMrsDV · 21/03/2018 16:40

Jack pissed off the tras tweeters so she left twitter.
She is back & suckig up.

(I am missig a vital key o my keyboard)

TheFirstMrsDV · 21/03/2018 16:41

She will turn up here soo.
She can't resist

NoSquirrels · 21/03/2018 16:42

Jack Monroe does not identify as either gender, afaik, but is calling out JK for liking that tweet.

Jack Monroe reads MN, where a thread was started saying it’s possible JK is sympathetic to the women’s rights stuff being discussed.

Therefore, I think it likely JM saw it here first, perhaps, and is calling out JK as not sympathetic to trans people. Which seems unfair based on one like on one post about misogyny in the Labour Party.

And not too far from the TRA position of policing people’s opinions by stalking them!

If JK had tweeted something herself, rather than 1 like, that’s be different.

I like both of them. I think both could be allies if they were inclined.

Jack doesn’t like gender much, as far as I can tell. But obviously due to her experience she is more naturally going to side with trans as a position than with ‘cis’ women.

catinboots9 · 21/03/2018 16:42

Yy @TheFirstMrsDV

Always does. Like clockwork.

missmoz · 21/03/2018 16:43

Jack Munroe is now a man ... no
She's trying to recruit J.K.Rowling ... no, and to what exactly?

Jack came out as trans or gender neutral a while ago but uses female and gender neutral pronouns, which is their business.

Jack's calling out (although not very succinctly or funnily) the 'men in dresses comment', which whatever you views on trans issues, or misogyny in the Labour Party, is an offensive thing to say.
