Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

GC/sympathetic publications...

Does anyone have a list of GC or sympathetic news organisations? I’m thinking about the story of Harry the Owl. People seem to be unaware that these things happen and often don’t believe me when I tell them. I’m often told that what I am saying can’t be true. Here is one. Are there any others?

I think when these things happen we should alert the editors of news organisations on mass so people are informed.

The Times
Spectator
New Statesman (with limits)

heck, even the Guardian did that 'controversial' editorial which said that gender doesn't cancel out sex

some of the tabloids (Daily Mail)

and apparently journalists frequently visit Mumsnet for inspiration

This has been happening for years. It's good they do too.

spiked is not gender critical

the article you linked to regards gender as innate and edifying

they just think only women and have the female gender and only men can have the male gender

that is not gender critical

Why target only GC publications? It's the likes of the Guardian who need waking up from their bubble. The more pushback they get from readers the better.
We don't have to demand that they denounce the TWAW dogma on their front page, just point out that free speech is being eroded and there are powerful lobbying organisations behind it. It should be right up their street. (Not holding my breath, obviously.)

Does anyone know how the popular science magazines (eg New Scientist) stand on this issue?

The only way that GC folks can win, is by getting the TRA's to debate on a national platform, something which they are reluctant to do, becaus eit will show up many of their beliefs.
So many trans gender people and their supporters seem to be into philosphy as opposed to science, and if this is scrutinised enough, then I believe the philosophy will crumble.
Here is one example:

medium.com/@transphilosophr/gender-critical-feminism-is-a-failed-ideology-982797e78125

That person regards biology as a mere concept, which is ridiculous.
As a bloke, I could say - "I am going to have a baby", I could keep on saying it, may even believe it (I wouldn't because I am not deluded), but hopefully the vast majority of folks would dismiss me as mad or maybe feel sorry for me.
A woman on the other hand could say - "I am pregnant, and will hopefully have a child in around 36 weeks time", and she will not need to keep saying it, because that is scientific fact. it has always been, and it will always be so.
The media needs to wake up, stop dreaming and acknowledge what is true, what is false and what, if left to grow, is potentially a great danger to women.

The seem to be on board with it.

I wish they would mention in this article, that the vast majority of TW's retain all their bits and bobs, and many go on to declare that they are lesbians.

I'll come back on the new scientist thing.

Am I allowed to post images taken from a book they produced? I was given it from taking out a subscription
