These women are bloody brave, if I was wearing a hat I'd tip it to them

Blythe you and your sisters are amazing.

Am I misreading this?

No mention that this was a lesbian protest by lesbians. The finger is clearly being pointed at 'anti-trans activists' so I can see people might well assume it was by a straight feminist group

You will patronisingly and briefly be told no one has to have sex with anyone. But your sexual orientation is not an orientation, it's a preference. And you might like to work through your preferences and be educated. You will be told that living in a transphobic society has informed your preferences and you need to unlearn it.

That's the nice version.

The nasty version is calling you every name under the sun and threatening you with rape.

You are talking b** grow up. Trans women are women and those that disagree are {insult} Just like you

Those that disagree just have a different opinion. That is allowed. insulting people for disagreeing? How is that helpful?

Ah, so far, so predictable. A GF shouting slogans, and plea to be a bit nicer and cuddlier and inclusive and polite.

Because obviously, the basis of the Pride marches is all about being nice and polite and not agitating for your rights and safety and all that unfluffy stuff.

I agree, do not label me as cis.
I am a biological female, a woman, unless you can prove that science and biology is wrong??

Those that disagree just have a different opinion. That is allowed. insulting people for disagreeing? How is that helpful?

Of the current climate was around in the 1970s my very gender non conforming sister would be told that she really wants to be a boy.

She is gay and just liked boys clothes, games and toys. It's very very simple... But the men don't like it do they?

Men who say the are women (because they feel like one - but who the he'll can say what it feels like?) but want to keep their male genitalia and sleep with women. And they are telling lesbians who they should fancy? Uhuh.

An anti-trans, radical feminist group hijacked the front of today's London Pride march.

The Guardian described the group as "anti trans".

No, they just don't want to have sex with a 'woman' with a penis.

They are picking off any alliea and supporters one by one. Starting with women.

Lesbian activists block Pride in London march to protest against trans women

Compare and contrast the reporting.

Come ON. You've got potentially 12 million women listening to this, take the stage.

All ears here! The anticipation almost as great as with the England game for the killer argument which is no doubt coming up!

They are anti PENIS not anti trans.

I'm getting so frustrated by this.

I feel so bad for the women who are being told by men that women can have penis'

Why are all the companies etc listening to men? This isn't about them, it's about women, and all the things we and our ancestors fought for.

Good work Blythe and team! Needs to be done, female voices need to be heard, the potential erasure is really scary.
TRAs are scary!
God forbid that anyone speak out against them (although Fairy isn't scary - just boringly repetitive and with no cohesive argument that doesn't go along the lines of "wah wah wah, transphobes, bigots, wah wah wah")

And it's official - Pride don't condone the message that lesbians are female homosexuals. In 2018.

I agree with the op, very brave women. They have to be brave though because there is so much against them now.

A man cannot become a woman. A man living as a woman, at whatever stage of transition, should have their autonomy respected. They may live as they please and should be able to do so safely and successfully. However they are not qualified to occupy women only space and they cannot compel women to pretend that biology and male privilege have ceased to exist.

I have only just remembered that today is the birthday of Nettie Stevens.

It is good to see a protest about sex on the birthday of the geneticist who discovered the importance of sex chromosomes (and who was generally ignored because she had two X chromosomes of her own).

when most trans people actually transition and take step towards transitioning

Er, if you mean surgery, no they don't.

Does anyone have an email address for Pride?

who clearly dislike women

Ah shit, just realised I hadn't refreshed and seen the "anti-trans" label bollocks reporting.
No! NOT "anti-trans" - anti-being-told-to-accept-lady-penis-lesbians! not the same thing.

Another lesbian signing in to say lesbians are female homosexuals.
Lesbians love women.
This is the first time I've felt there might be a tiny bunch of participants who would welcome me on a pride march.
I haven't been for ages due to lesbophobic abuse.

BlytheByName you are wonderful. So are your sisters. I salute you.

A lesbian is a female homosexual.

What can happen to me for saying this? Male supremacists shout at me? A woke MN intern smites me from on high?

Go right fucking ahead.

A lesbian is a female homosexual.
