Because, why not! Ahh fuck it:-

An 'ahh fuck it' Girl Guiding have just emailed their entire database to tell them why male-bodied children who 'feel like girls' trump the feelings, dignity and privacy of girls (due to gender, not sex definitions).

And 'ahh fuck it' that Adrian Harrop's complaint that a woman's rights organisations' billboard stating the oxford english dictionary's definition of 'female' was transphobic meant that the poster was removed.

And 'ahh fuck it' that a 'woman' (transwoman) who took a place on the Jo Cox Leadership Programme stropped off today. twitter.com/sophiecooktalks/status/1044495320808386560
(Mate - strop off about your deselection, strop off about premier league stuff, but WTF are you doing tweeting about girl guiding. Seriously, check yourself in.)

And 'ahh fuck it' BIG TIME ON THIS ONE.

You are a young person, challenged by your background. You are self-aware that your parent has been convicted of torture and sexual abuse of a young girl. You're under scrutiny. You probably should drop under the social media, seek support, counselling etc.

Many of use here on Mumsnet would understand this fragmented, disrupted and abusive childhood and support you to seek help and support to rebuild your life.

Meanwhile you tweet this fucker:
twitter.com/Girlguiding/status/1044636494152036353

(For anyone that this doesn't work for, this is Aimee's retweet supporting Guide's last post).

Aimee's tweeting Girl Guiding safeguarding tweets. 'equality and diversity' tweets.

it's just a Tuesday thing.

From a woman who's tired.

Who's fire-fighting with others in so many other places to retain the logical, physical, linguistical and realistic word 'woman' and 'female'.

Who is seeing manipulative, male-bodied, narcisstic, dangerous, perverse, confused, needy, males pushing into our spaces.

All your shit, i'll still be doing 'ah fuck it' and carrying on campaigning, despite you telling us we're cishetwhitepanbronevbrianelfspacester

A reminder that Linda Bellos and Venice Allan are appearing in court tomorrow due to a private prosecution by Guiliana London.

Entire database? Where?

redshoeblueshoe · 25/09/2018 23:06

And whilst GG embrace trans, they only actually embrace trans children with a penis.

Shame on you GG

To think I was once so proud to be a member

LangCleg · 25/09/2018 23:07

Entire database? Where?

All over at least half a dozen threads if you care to look.

ToeToToe · 25/09/2018 23:15

Yeah, fuck it. That's where I am right now.

How dare Aimee Challenor tweet about safeguarding?? Jeez, we're going backwards into the Jimmy Saville days.

GDPR?

AsAProfessionalFekko · 25/09/2018 23:19

Well it would definitely come under 'legitimate interest'!

LangCleg · 25/09/2018 23:25

They've emailed their entire mailing list, presumably, which will include leaders, parents who have signed up to it, and anyone else who has signed up to it.

elephantoverthehill · 25/09/2018 23:35

I asked about the database stuff as I work with a woman who is in the Trefoil Guild and is a member of the Scout Association too. She was at Gilwell last weekend but has no clue as to what is going on in the GGA with regards to these issues. I mentioned about the World at One interviews to her. How far is this message going?

If it's hard to get news out now, it's about to get harder if you seen the proposed updates to Twitter's policies.

we are seriously in a position when feminist women could be ejected, en masse, from the global public square, for saying that female people are oppressed as female people and that that matters. Even though I know, and have been saying, for the last five years, that the fundamental structure of trans rights discourse threatens to make feminist speech unsayable, I still somehow don’t believe that they are really trying to frame a policy to make us stop saying it. And yet, I can’t help coming to the conclusion that they really are. For those of you out there still sitting on the fence, or who still believe that I, and everyone opposing this ‘civil rights movement’, is just a nasty evil hate-mongering bigot, please, if you give one shit about women and the protection of women, wake-the-fuck-up. This is actually happening, it’s scary as shit, and we may well be running out of time. This is what woman-hating totalitarianism looks like. This is not a fucking drill.
