WHICH!!!

[FloralBunting]

So I came across this delightful acronym in a Anti-Woman diatribe this morning. In amongst the usual ranting about hate groups and made up suicide statistics, I learned that 'cis' people have no right whatsoever to have an opinion on any of the issues under discussion, and all 'WHIteCisHet (WHICH)' should shut up.

Yup, they actually think that calling women who object to their rights and protections being eroded 'Whiches' is going to conceal the anti-woman motivation of this?

Well, I'm honestly surprised it took this long. I wonder how long until one of us gets burned at the stake.

Damn, I'm a lesbian and not white so I can't be a WHICH.

The total ignorance of women's history of sex-based persecution is definitely not an accident.

I refuse to accept being called 'cis', but would be happy to accept the label 'WITCH'- Woman Into Taking Control Herself.

Witches are cool.

Made me think of this

morning you are very welcome in my coven- it's completely intersectional with respect to race and sexual orientation.
No penises though.

This one has to be a 4chan thing right? Surely even most TRAs aren't daft enough to actually start calling us witches.

I think some of them already have, pancake. Twitter is like the wild west.

pancake, if it's 4chan, it's been swallowed whole by someone I know is wholeheartedly pro-TRA and right-on, and regurgitated by her.

Sorry, that is too funny!

😬

Floral sorry, I didn't mean to come across as though I didn't believe you, it's just bloody crazy!

Ah well, any excuse to post this

I refuse to accept being called 'cis', but would be happy to accept the label 'WITCH'- Woman Into Taking Control Herself.

Same here, and with the acronym spelled out like this, there is luckily no exclusion of our 'nonwhite' and lesbian sisters in spirit. So, I am good with that.

pancake, it's cool, I don't disagree that it sounds like 4chan chicanery, but even if it was, it's clearly perfectly acceptable to people with no self awareness whatsoever.

Im surprised this person isn't posting accusations that I turned them into a newt but they got better on my timeline, tbh.

'WHiteCisHet'
It must be clumsiest one yet!
They're desperate to find a way to call us witches.

betty

This is all so ridiculous.
Oh well, I'm off out to give people warts.
Now where did I leave my broomstick?

Witch is a term I'd wear with pride. As long as these people realise it's witch in the Granny Weatherwax sense.

Disappointed. I thought WHICH had done a comparison of females and found the ones without penises are rubbish.

kat definitely not a best buy then.

Just back from spreading leaflets warts.
Better keep an eye out for Matthew Hopkins.

It is, let's be honest, the shiteiest acronym based slur since Terf, really. Like those ridiculous title sequences for film and TV where random letters in words are picked out to form another word, and for a second you go, 'Oh, that's clever.' and then you realize that they've just managed to spell a word with letters from the English language, which is a skill most people pick up in primary school.

It is a rubbish one isn't it -acronyms are very 'in' these days. I sometimes work for my local authority and the paperwork often looks like a bad scrabble hand.

Oh Granny Weatherwax is my heroine.

^“Haven’t you got any romance in your soul?’ said Magrat plaintively.
‘No,’ said Granny. 'I ain’t. And stars don’t care what you wish, and magic don’t make things better, and no one doesn’t get burned who sticks their hand in a fire. If you want to amount to anything as a witch, Magrat Garlick, you got to learn three things. What’s real, what’s not real, and what’s the difference.“^

You can call me a witch any day of the week .

❤ Granny Weatherwax. As she says, this is all just 'headology'

What has race got to do with it? Do they think only white women disagree with them? Idiots.
