And then the mainstream media will wring their hands over these women's lack of integration in society. Ignoring the fact that women of faith are actively prevented from integration. And of course their children will be removed with them.

It will be seen as their fault - they don't want to integrate into society and are rejecting the mainstream values of society (of considering men to be women). This will generate a backlash against these communities in short order of course. As sure as eggs is eggs.

And everyone will blame Feminists for it all. Natch.

Does anyone have any faith in humanity, any more?

I don't.

I think the sooner humans are wiped off the face of planet earth, the better.

APRIL 21, 2015 BY ATH TEAM
Jess Bradley 'On being a trans student, and why the NUS should have a full time trans officer'

(extract)
"When I was 18 I started having sex with men for money. I started because, despite my having a part time job at the time, I found myself having to make the choice between eating and paying the bus fare to university. Like many trans students, I had a sometimes strained and sometimes non-existent relationship with my parents, and couldn’t ask them for help. At the time I was newly out as trans, and taking an engineering course at Bradford University. Nobody on my course would talk to me or want to work with me in group projects because I was trans. When they did, people asked me why I would do “a man’s subject like engineering if I wanted to be a woman”. Eventually, like too many trans students, I dropped out of my course.

This was a rough time for me. Fortunately for me, one of the sabbatical officers self-defined as trans and I came to them for support. We quickly became friends; if it wasn’t for them I’m not sure I would be alive today to be honest. I ended up switching over to a new course at Manchester University where I could get a bursary. I fast found a vibrant queer community there, but still struggled, almost failing and dropping out of this course after I was sexually assaulted on campus one too many times.

Still, I scraped through my undergrad and managed to get onto a masters course. In the first week of term, Julie Bindel was scheduled to turn up for an event on campus. I wrote a facebook status about it, which the university newspaper stole it as a quote; outing me as both trans and a sex worker to 80,000 students across Manchester at 3 different institutions without my consent. Now I am a PhD student at the same institution, and occasionally teach undergraduates. I wonder how many of them had read that newspaper article, and how many have connected their teacher with the sensationalist things that were written about me." (continues)

So Jess Bradley wrote the thing on Facebook and the university newspaper lifted it and this outed them as trans and a sex worker?

So they outed themselves on Facebook on the first place?

And nobody would know anything about it if Jess hadn't gone after Julie Bindel in the first place?

And all this "outing" thing. Jess seems to think that Jess was actually passing as a woman before being outed as trans.

Which beggars all belief.

I hope there'll be a Part III....

R0wantrees · 03/08/2018 11:22

There will be a removal/retreat of women of faith from the public sphere. I’d like to think there will be outrage but I fear there won’t - there are enough male interests to limiting women’s freedoms as it is.

So our Muslim/orthodox Jewish etc sisters will just quietly disappear.

Popchyk · 03/08/2018 11:22

I'm totally up for a part III.

Will it be as good as parts I and II?

These have both been great threads by the way. Lots of great insight and info and some great humour.

sociopathsunited · 03/08/2018 11:23

Jess is delusional if Jess believes that Jess passes as a woman.

Popchyk · 03/08/2018 11:29

This is one of the few threads on FWR that hasn't become merailed by one of the TRA supporters.

So we definitely need a Part III.

Any ideas for titles? I'll shamelessly use other people's material and go with:

Ah well, they can always go back to Josh. Wink

Worth remembering that MN thread titles feature quite high on Google searches for words in the title.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 03/08/2018 11:54

I'd go for something purely factual that people might click on eg "Jess (formerly Josh) Bradley accused of flashing, and sharing images of child rape, incest themed pornography, and of young people masturbating in classrooms"

A bit less catchy though...

sociopathsunited · 03/08/2018 11:57

I'd go with a serious, factual one too. I'm afraid I just have a tendency to aim for the ridiculous in general, but especially with this situation.

My suggestions are way way way to flippant to be used, and probably far to irresponsible to even be on this thread. Apologies all.

Popchyk · 03/08/2018 12:00

Yes, it has to be serious and factual, I agree.

Don't want to give MNHQ an excuse to delete the thread. Mocking pervs is surely in the new guidelines.

We could have a subtitle on the OP though?

Sorry, don't know what happened there.

Oh dear, this thread is getting full now, eh?

Hilarious. But might get deleted - if we were to go with a more serious one, how about:
Jess Bradley - Disgraced NUS Officer - Part III

Anyone can kick off the Part III. I just quickly made the Part II after searching, seeing that no-one had made it, and wanted the convo to keep going!
