Some very passionate responses from the lesbian community, since the anti-trans protests.

When Jennifer James pushed to sue the labour party, the result was the labour party clarified it's position as self-id for AWS

This has a similar ring to it, as the anti-trans protesters tried to co-opt the lesbian community, there has been a vocal backlash and clarification of support for trans people.

There's a hashtag to check out... twitter.com/hashtag/LWithTheT?src=hash

Ah, the 'by saying the words 'rape culture' you are accusing us all of being rapists, you monster!' logic. Previously brought to you by self-righteous MRAs, now repackaged in a shiny new box!

BeyondRaggydoll · 08/07/2018 20:13

"specifically designed to celebrate them"

...and lesbians. LGBT, not TTTT.

BeyondRaggydoll · 08/07/2018 20:14

Or YYYY as its all about that little chromosome....

When you are promoting hate towards transgender people at PRIDE it goes beyond civil debate.

Is that the civil debate that TRAs have been begging for?

Oh, wait...

daimbars · 08/07/2018 20:15

I mean even if you had decided a stranger was your absolute worst enemy, would you turn up at their birthday party telling everyone they were a rapist?

It's pretty unhinged behaviour.

Pratchet · 08/07/2018 20:15

Oh I get it this is the new narrative

TWAW
'I knew when I was 3'
Mumsnet wants Section 28
'We just want to pee'
'Parasites'
'They call us rapists'

It's another mantra

LeiaTheSlaya · 08/07/2018 20:15

You clearly can't read daim, do you have that wilful blindness too?

It says RAPE CULTURE.

There, that help?

Wilful blindness of the sexual harassment of lesbians to have sex involving a penis (inverted or not) is RAPE CULTURE.

We are all typing English here, right?

53rdWay · 08/07/2018 20:16

daim, I think you're on to a loser with trying to convince a bunch of feminists that 'rape culture' means 'calling everyone rapists'. Maybe try to find a new tack there.

Mantra as in, ignore the truth, repeat on loop

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 08/07/2018 20:17

But I would call you homophobic if you turned up at Pride with leaflets calling gay men rapists.

I'd call you a Nazi if you turned up at Pride with pictures of Hitler with the caption 'Bring Back the Good Old Days'. Is that relevant?

UglyCathKidstonBag · 08/07/2018 20:17

Unbelievable that transactivists think a feminism board is the place for goady, sexist trans evangelism, but Pride isn't the place for female homosexuality. The stench of hypocrisy is overwhelming.

This, this all day long.

daimbars · 08/07/2018 20:17

The only people that would ever support a rape culture are rapists.

Nobody randomly 'supports a rape culture' FFS.

Pflt · 08/07/2018 20:17

@misssusansays as I understand it, it’s fine to have a sexual preference based in genitals in the way you put it, that you don’t like pussy.

However if you’re not into penises, then you are a bigot.

HerFemaleness · 08/07/2018 20:18

certain transwomen have published videos, written articles, used social media to condemn lesbians for being same sex attracted. The same people who are oh so outraged at the Pride 10 turned a blind eye to the despicable behaviour of these transwoman. as they berated lesbians and denounced them as ‘vagina fetishists’ for not wanting a sexual partner with a penis.

Frankly daimbars, I couldn’t give one shiney shit if your pearl clutching corporate schmoozing rape culture supporting pride marchers are shocked and appalled. Good I say, they damn well should be shocked . I’m shocked that lesbians are being told to accept cock and this is being touted as super woke and progressive.

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 08/07/2018 20:19

Is Pride a birthday party for trans people now?

That's nice.

If a teensy bit reductive...

BeyondRaggydoll · 08/07/2018 20:19

In crazy logic land, some may say that complaining about women who want to stop rape culture shows clear support for maintaining a rape culture, dontcha think?

LeiaTheSlaya · 08/07/2018 20:19

My god, wilfully ignorant as well as wilfully blind?

Tell us daim, what is your understanding of rape culture?

53rdWay · 08/07/2018 20:19

The only people that would ever support a rape culture are rapists.

That is the exact opposite of what is meant by 'rape culture'. But I'm sure you have had this explained to you on here, multiple times, sooooo.....

Pratchet · 08/07/2018 20:19

oh Daim. You don't know much.

WhereDoWeBeginToCovetClarice · 08/07/2018 20:19

would you turn up at their birthday

Are you suggesting lesbians don't belong at pride because it's not their party?

This completely illustrates the point about lesbian erasure.

Because whose party is it eh? If the lesbians aren't welcome then ... maybe they should get the L out!

CatchingBabies · 08/07/2018 20:20

Can anyone answer the question as to why there isn’t loads of transmen demanding access to male only safe spaces or whinging that gay men won’t sleep them? It’s almost as though transmen haven’t been raised with a male sense of entitlement?

UpstartCrow · 08/07/2018 20:20

Please, not yet another groundhog day thread.
