I'm so pleased to see this. I've been a big fan of Martina since I was a kid and this just makes her go up even higher in my estimation:

The cat is just a bigot, littl.

OlennasWimple · 23/02/2019 13:19

What's with this fixation on a mouse's genitals? Why are you reducing it to what's under its tail? That tells you nothing about how the mouse identifies

BettyDuMonde · 23/02/2019 13:48

Mice can have ladydicks now?

We’re still going to have to segregate via sex not gender though, right? After all, mice reproduce hella fast.

(I got a mouse for my 10th birthday. 8 days later I had 10 mice. 11 days after that my mum took all the extra mice back to the petshop)

MillytantForceit · 23/02/2019 13:53

"How the mouse indentifies..."

You mean like this?

That image needs a warning. Clothed animals are very creeps and sinister.

DisrespectfulAdultFemale · 23/02/2019 16:56

I'm triggered by that image. I thought MN was a safe space.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 23/02/2019 16:57

I am having flashbacks to Charlie mouse and the other mouse-organ mice on Bagpuss. They freaked the hell out of me as a child.

EweSurname · 27/02/2019 23:07

She’s still going strong, even with Paris lees getting in on the action

Martina speaks out!
EweSurname · 27/02/2019 23:09

Seems considered and thoughtful

Martina speaks out!
MillytantForceit · 28/02/2019 08:18

"There are many tentacles to this..."

Misplaced consonant?

@EweSurname Surely this is the straw that will break the camel's back??? Surely???

EweSurname · 02/03/2019 14:03

I hope so! There’ll be more piling on though. She’s withstood it so far so hopefully she’ll carry on

Datun · 02/03/2019 14:07

This is the sunlight. That sexual orientations, whatever they are, are transphobic. Boundaries and consent are transphobic. Reality is transphobic.

That famous organisations like Stonewall, who have previously supported marginalised homosexual groups, are now homophobic.

Martina has opened the curtains, and sunlight is pouring in.

Courday · 02/03/2019 14:18

Oh wow, someone get on there and reinforce the cotton ceiling nonsense to Martina.
Finally finally someone with a voice (Martina) could say something. Please.

This homophobic bullshit must be called out.

TowelNumber42 · 02/03/2019 14:19

It seems like some people are waking up to what will actually be the right side of history.

Karen White was bad of course but I reckon it is sports and hacking the bodies of children that will really get the mainstream personalities realising they could look very very Saville if they don't stand up now.

Datun · 02/03/2019 14:24

Could someone tweet Stonewall and tag Martina and ask the question can you please confirm that lesbians are same-sex attracted women?

Datun · 02/03/2019 14:24

Same sex attracted females

SparkiePolastri · 02/03/2019 17:13

That guy, Christopher, further down the thread saying the two issues shouldn't be conflated. 'This is a different topic'.

No - it's exactly the same nonsense. Infuriating.

I'm becoming more and more hopeful that the outside world is coming to realise that 'gender' is the Emperor's new clothes.

Datun · 02/03/2019 18:12

Yes SparkiePolastri.

The reason he wants it to be different is because sport is something that doesn't make you look like you are a woman supporter. You are a sport supporter, a fairness supporter.

The cowardly little weasel can support fairness in sports, but doesn't want to get involved in the grubby, dirty, counter-productive (to him) issue of women's rights in general.

EweSurname · 02/03/2019 18:31

I don’t think he was - he said furthef up the thread that twitter had got this wrong and the sports post he was responding to was someone saying that sports and other issues were being used to seed hatred against trans people.

EweSurname · 02/03/2019 20:34

McKinnon fucking scores again!

Honestly, they deserve a gold medal in peak transing

Martina speaks out!
Iused2BanOptimist · 02/03/2019 20:45

I view McKinnon as a comedy poster these days. Honestly. Just too funny.
(Does using a gigantic block list constitute "not backing down"?)

Blimey. This really is sunlight isn't it. Presumably Martina's many followers will also see that, and scales will be falling from eyes.
