That last line is gold.

Sexnotgender · 17/10/2018 14:08

Great piece, just a shame more people won’t see it.

Datun · 17/10/2018 14:08

Terfs are more likely to be men?

Where's that come from?

Penny1976 · 17/10/2018 14:10

So funny.

arranfan · 17/10/2018 14:11

Where's that come from?

Madigan's creative mind as an explanation as to why the at face-value misogyny and abuse of women isn't really...?

How many fingers am I holding up?

Purely so that LM can then deny that LM is a misogynist, Datun.

If you say bad things about women and people call you out on it, you can just say that you actually meant men instead.

Brilliant! How can Lilly be womens officer when they are SO dismissive of women! Labour have got to replace with a more suitable candidate.

DereksSexyPyjamas · 17/10/2018 14:12

My question too, Datun. Did Madigan actually claim that? Shock

BlardyBlar · 17/10/2018 14:13

Terfs are more likely to be men?

Where's that come from?

Any lie in a crisis????

pennydrew · 17/10/2018 14:13

😂 love it

Datun · 17/10/2018 14:20

Oh I get it now, I've just re-read.

Madigan says:

"people claiming Terf are deliberately trying to claim a false misogyny narrative"

They are desperately trying to claim they are really talking about men, so it can't be misogyny.

Got it.

It's misandry then. And Lily is a woman.

Is Lily a man hating feminist, now?

Dragon3 · 17/10/2018 14:22

Could LM be implying that holding gender critical views makes a person no longer female?

Baffling!

Dragon3 · 17/10/2018 14:23

Oh okay. Thanks Datun!

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/10/2018 14:24

I desperately want an article to print all the lies they have ever told together

The grc crap and the 're education and the racist stuff etc

Datun · 17/10/2018 14:25

It's also a bit much to say that women are 'claiming' Terf. 🤣🤣

NaturalBlondeYeahRight · 17/10/2018 14:32

Here’s the original for you all. Private eye are going for it

Lily's logic hurts my head
I bet this thread goes "poof" but good to see private eye have noticed the crazy

DereksSexyPyjamas · 17/10/2018 14:38

JFC. Such a plainly ridiculous, easily misproven transparent lie. How desperate must Madigan have been to pull that one out.

KatherinaMinola · 17/10/2018 14:45

Desperate and awfully dim.

Mxyzptlk · 17/10/2018 14:48

Creating confusion so that the general public, who aren't paying close attention to all this, have no idea what's going on.

pennydrew · 17/10/2018 14:52

Right. So why do they keep attacking Mumsnet and accusing us of transphobia if apparently it’s mostly men and women support them? 😬

DereksSexyPyjamas · 17/10/2018 14:54

Hang on a minute... does this mean the real problem is men not accepting transwomen into their spaces? Shit, maybe Madigan’s onto something here

LorettasBox · 17/10/2018 14:58

I've expressed sympathy for Madigan in the past, given that they appear to be being manipulated by others. But this isn't manipulative, it's just spectacularly dim. I'm beginning to be astonished Madigan has the wit to log in to Twitter at all in the first place.

NopeNi · 17/10/2018 15:08

I don't get it though. People know how crazy this whole thing is and it gets one tiny satirical column somewhere? A couple of winks and nudges to those in the know.

Why aren't people like Ian Hislop shouting loudly about this on HIGNFY?

VickyEadie · 17/10/2018 15:11

That's gold, that is. "Who knew that feminists were mostly men"?

LM - putting the 'REALLY not very bright" into 'not very bright'.
