Billboard with dictionary definition 'woman: adult human female' removed after pressure from TRAs.

[R0wantrees]

Is the OED now hate speech?

Interesting to note some of the sources of the complaints: twitter.com/Direct_PS/status/1044263398333132800

I'm surprised it lasted this long. I'd say the pressure they've been applying to get it removed has been unbelievable.

I had a feeling this would happen. It's ridiculous though, isn't it? Why is the dictionary definition of the word woman considered so offensive and terrifying?

Wow!

Still, it was there for the whole of the National Women’s Conference and for the big launch day of the main Labour Party Conference, so I'd call that more of a win than a loss...

Great, it will get lots of media attention! Did they give a refund?

You know what, this is really a win for Posie. She has now proven that they cannot even tolerate a dictionary definition.

Excellent. I hope the TRAs trumpet this defeat all over the place, and that it features prominently in the media that this horribly offensive statement had to be removed. Another massive own goal from the TRAs..

Woman-hater Harrop leading the charge. Do TRAs never look at themselves in the mirror and wonder what's gone wrong in their lives that they've made it their mission to harrass and erase half the human race?

It’s interesting isn’t it, that a HCP would behave in such a way. As someone in the same field as Harrop I have to say everyone I know is shocked and appalled by his behaviour and disdain for women. It is a special kind of arrogance that means you dismiss thousands of women speaking out as bigots, purely because you want to further your career.

I'm amazed it lasted that long. And they replace it one with 'man' now?

Headline suggestions on postcards below:

DICTIONARY DEFINITION OF WOMEN DELETED

JUNIOR DOCTOR DECIDES WOMEN ARE NO LONGER ADULT HUMAN FEMALES

ANTI WOMEN BIGOTS QUITE LITERALLY ERASE WOMEN

Doctor should lose his license if he gets the basics wrong to be honest.

Remember no publicity is bad publicity. Just think what this will look like to ordinary members of the public when they read about it in the Times, the Mail, the Sun, Private Eye.

Ok, maybe I should rethink the 'The Earth revolves around the Sun' campaign. Wouldn't want to end up in jail.

They need to provide a refund for this. They can't choose to take down a statement of truth and expect to keep the money as well.

I’m really worried about the 2+2=4 hate campaign that I have recently unleashed upon my pre-schooler.

Well, exactly. Or they have to prove exactly how a dictionary definition of a word is now hate speech that breaches their terms and conditions.

This is fantastic. The optics are priceless. Dictionary definitions are transphobic now. Bring it on 😂

Just sent Primesight a blasting email. I’m on a roll today!

Someone's made a good point about it might be sex discrimination and a good legal test case?

That's Primesight Direct in case you missed it.

This is such an own goal for the TRAs it proves they are so deranged they cannot tolerate reality. Hope the money is refunded though.

I was watching on Netflix the feminists from the 60s who got attention by stunts such as these. This is better than if they'd allowed it to stand quietly and drawn no attention to it TBH.

Wait. Wasnt there a Twitter thing of #adulthumanfemale that loads of trans jumped on/started? If trans = adult human female but adult human female is not equal to woman then ergo T does not equal woman.

Fabulous. I think this will draw even more attention to this situation. Women forbidden to define themselves. I can see the headlines now. Bless their simple hearts.
