No sorry girl, that was a stray 'you'!

😂 no worries, I didn't want to overstate myself

Miranda Yardley wrote a piece about this person. It's very easily googleable.

The first comment was from said person demanding removal or they'll sue.

Miranda hasn't taken it down though Miranda doesn't scare easily. And everything Miranda has written is true. I think said person just bullies and tries to scare people into removing content.

Mnhq said they probably wont reinstate it as this thread is running

They've copyrighted all their selfies? Can you do that? They're in the public domain.

How can they copyright images if other people are in the background? Did these school girls sign over their image rights?

I believe you have automatic copyright over any image that you take. I'm not sure if legally that means others can't use the image but they should credit you for it. The internet has ridden roughshod over photo copyright of course but it does exist without you having to take action. In various countries including the UK anyway.

This is all totally insane. I can understand women who have tried to fight backing away when the toll becomes too much but I cannot understand the cheerleaders who don't look at some of the evidence as there's plenty by now.

The original lawsuit has been dropped

Parents abruptly drop lawsuit over transgender student locker room access at suburban school district

No known reason for the parents dropping the case.

A statement from the attorneys who represent transgender students;
"ACLU attorney John Knight said in a statement that District 211 still has long way to go to make school welcoming for all students, including those who are transgender.
“There has never been any harm to non-transgender students from sharing restrooms and locker rooms with students whom they perceive as different,” he said. “The only harm has been to transgender students who have been targeted with fear-mongering and misinformation. Students who are transgender have never been a threat to anyone in this school or elsewhere.”"

“There has never been any harm to non-transgender students from sharing restrooms and locker rooms with students whom they perceive as different,” he said. “The only harm has been to transgender students who have been targeted with fear-mongering and misinformation. Students who are transgender have never been a threat to anyone in this school or elsewhere.”"

What he's actually saying here is this:
“There has never been any harm to female students from sharing restrooms and locker rooms with students who are male,” he said. “The only harm has been to male students who have been targeted with fear-mongering and misinformation. Students who are male have never been a threat to anyone in this school or elsewhere.”"

Totally agree Old Crone
It's another example of being selective about language

Canada is a totally sick country, and I will not be going there any time soon.
I may have a human rights lawyer cousin in Canada who supports all this rubbish.
I wonder what kind of chemicals they are putting in the water.

Canada is a totally sick country, and I will not be going there any time soon.

Same here. I used to want to go. I can't face it now.

Same re not going near the place now - we (DH) and I turn 50 very close together, Canada was the plan. Not now though. I'd probably get arrested for not ma'aming correctly.

And the person we cannot name is loving the news

How is this happening?

Yip - we had seriously considered Canada after Brexit but no more.....although the countries I can go to in good conscience is depleting at an extraordinary rate.

@Yabbers your analysis was really helpful re the Illinois "No right to visual privacy" case:
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3561704-What-the-Ever-Loving-Fuck-now?msgid=86382519

A later post says the parents have now dropped the case. Where do think that leaves things now? (I am in UK not USA but am mindful how these ideas of what is lawful and/or acceptable spread so dangerously quickly!)

My thought on reading about the case were how could anyone be prosecuted for Voyeurism if there is no expectation of "visual privacy"?

The reaction from JY is annoying but a distraction from the real issue.

@Alwayscominghome I hope this doesn't sound cheeky but having got over the initial "shock horror!" reaction to the vile JY, would you consider asking Mumsnet to change the Title of this thread to make it easier to find and avoid duplicates? I knew this had to be being discussed somewhere on Mumsnet. There are several "What the Fuckity-fuck!" threads at the moment

Developments!

I’ll ask about changing the title but does anyone have a suggestion?

I deliberately avoided referencing JY in the title as I feared it would be taken down right away.

I hope the press will be reporting on all the instant bans from twitter for even mentioning this person.

Brilliant news! And not soon enough as JY has said they are working with children now (obvs not envy)

As for the title, makes sense why you didn't ref they who cannot be named (ooo will that change soon??) how about something about it never happens and girls loosing the right to 'visual privacy' ?

I love the new name given in reference to ‘he who shall not be named’, Balldemort. 😁

Obviously I’m referring to Harry Potter in ‘he who shall not be named’, before I get reported for ‘misgendering’. 😒🙄

It seems TRA Joss Prior was suspended from Twitter for deadnaming this person.

Prior has spent years hounding feminists and nothing ever happened.

I guess this shows where the power lies.

What the hell'a going on? How can one person control twitter like that? Especially as the entire world knows all about their 'dealings.'
