I haven’t posted on here before, but I’m a constant lurker. My friend sent me the link above. She’s very feminist and gender critical, so it’s definitely not something either of us agree with. She’s one of the few people I can talk to about the trans stuff in real life. As I think my DH is fed up of me going on about it!

The whole thing is so bloody infuriating as they can’t seem to see that the things they’re requesting for trans people are exactly what they’re denying women (adult human females, not any other sort)

Yes! It's incredibly infuriating.

There's an excellent, point-by-point takedown on twitter: twitter.com/Dyketagnan/status/1049922295915937792

There are a couple of threads on this (I hope this link works as 1 is to a discussion and the other is a nicely humorous takedown):

Thanks, I didn’t realise there were already some threads on it. I just got so enraged reading it, and felt I had to share.

The board is getting unmanageable with multiple threads about the same topic, so I wish people would look first. No offence, OP.
