She seems to be being attacked on Twitter for rejecting 'cis':

twitter.com/AlisonMoyet

Link probably won't work. I'm not on Twitter so not sure how to do the links.

Alison alao says trans women are women.

pearlkent · 05/07/2018 16:48

Maybe she's changing her mind now...

Have you seen the flies bit

Ive not got as far as cis...im still on the flies

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 05/07/2018 17:13

Im not on twitter so i only get the highlights

Battleax · 05/07/2018 17:14

I mocked the twerp talking nonsense to her prematurely and now I can’t fillow the whole thing BlushGrin

Battleax · 05/07/2018 17:14

Blocked not mocked. Mocked makes no sense at all Blush

TheCountessofFitzdotterel · 05/07/2018 17:16

I assumed you had mocked them so they blocked you.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 05/07/2018 17:16

I dont think 'fillow' makes much sense either Grin

Battleax · 05/07/2018 17:18

That’s it, I’m going to marinade in the paddling pool Smile

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 05/07/2018 17:19

Best place for you Grin

ChickenMe · 05/07/2018 17:20

She seems a bit confused

PerspicaciaTick · 05/07/2018 17:32

I think it is hard to realise that a lifetime of supporting the LGBT community isn't enough to protect you when the TRAs get you in their sights.

I love Alison Moyet so much. This is sad.

SomeDyke · 05/07/2018 17:40

Dykes all lover her back in the day -- great voice, and not terribly feminine with Alf as a nickname and album title. What was not to like?

So, hands off Alf you gits!

nauticant · 05/07/2018 17:55

I've liked her for years but she seems to have some way to go on this issue:

She is still stating that we're bigots, if you read the replies. Trans women are women in her world.

Helmetbymidnight · 05/07/2018 18:14

Wah, she got a hammering..
I think she’s great.

invisibleoldwoman · 05/07/2018 18:16

Give her time. The transactivists style of negotiation and winning hearts and minds is like the Daleks 'Exterminate, exterminate' No sense of proportion at all.

This is what is making me less and less likely to want to give an inch in the erosion of women's rights and language. Quite the opposite.

Helmetbymidnight · 05/07/2018 18:17

Her back is against the wall on this, I don’t blame her for backing down.

SPOFS · 05/07/2018 18:20

This is a perfect example of "if you try to please everyone, you'll please no one."

I think this will fully peak trans her though, which is good.

SPOFS · 05/07/2018 18:23

I've just seen that Shappi Khorsandi, the British comedian, is supporting her... this is getting interesting!

TheCountessofFitzdotterel · 05/07/2018 18:23

She'll get there.

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 05/07/2018 18:24

Appease, appease, appease. Back off, back off, back off...

Poor Alison. Someone needs to let her know how much men hate women...

OlennasWimple · 05/07/2018 18:28

Ah, she's currently on the uphill bit that is steeper than you realised that comes before reaching the peak... Keep going Allison, I'll have the kettle on for when you reach the top Brew
