Alison Moyet - yay (I think)

[pearlkent]

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

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.

Maybe she's changing her mind now...

I hate Twitter and I love Alison Moyet.

Its the flies bit

Have you seen the flies bit

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

What the actual fuck is wrong with people!!

Im not on twitter so i only get the highlights

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

Blocked not mocked. Mocked makes no sense at all

I assumed you had mocked them so they blocked you.

I dont think 'fillow' makes much sense either

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

Best place for you

She seems a bit confused

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.

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!

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

She'll get there.

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

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

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
