Seems to have been carried out by well known TRA who has threatened violence before: twitter.com/bindelj/status/1136402563379716096

Fabulous tweet on the topic, directed at Lighthouse Books:

Would you like some copies of my new book: "Being A Twat Is Not The Same As Having One"

MsJeminaPuddleduck · 07/06/2019 12:52

Sorry, this isn't really related but an alert has just popped up on my phone that Sally Challen not going to face a retrial! Wonderful news!

Popchyk · 07/06/2019 12:53

Oh that's brilliant.

So happy for Sally and her sons.

LangCleg · 07/06/2019 12:53

Embarrassing when a man - Tom Farr - gets it more than I'm GC but... Ginger, eh?

That is really great news on Sally Challen. So pleased.

Datun · 07/06/2019 13:02

Sally Challen. What a relief.

JackyHolyoake · 07/06/2019 13:09

Sally Challen ... dances with joy! Best wishes to you Sally, darling! You can get on with the rest of your life now. Flowers

LangCleg

That Tom Farr article was excellent.

And had the added bonus of making me laugh out loud.

Referring to woke men...

These men and their comrades are so wrapped up in their own egotistical version of being progressive, that they end up having to stretch themselves in ways that would make an Olympic gymnastic applaud. Imagine if somebody was attacked, and then instead of acknowledging it for what it is (which is male violence against women), you instead try to concoct an utterly bizarre what-if scenario where the man wasn’t actually attacking the woman, but was instead somebody who was “being aspergers”, and was trying to greet you “with their fists”. Having a hard time imagining somebody going to such lengths to avoid responsibility? Don’t worry, it actually happened!

Ginger and her dozens of polite fledgeling feminists don't stand a chance!

MsJeminaPuddleduck · 07/06/2019 13:22

Er, I'm not sure that Ginger was actually ANY kind of feminist ..

SirVixofVixHall · 07/06/2019 13:27

I would say that when we have the Standard not showing a picture of the man that Julie supposedly “misidentified “ because they know every single ready would look at it and say “misidentified?!?” , and when men are claiming that appearing feminine in some small way, eg eyeliner, makes them actual women, then appearance is a completely relevant thing to comment on.
This is a man, not a woman, not someone who anyone would ever read as a woman. A man who hates women, and has found his people among other men who hate, and are jealous of, women.

SirVixofVixHall · 07/06/2019 13:27

*reader, not ready. Predictive text, sorry.

And also they have attempted to de humanise us by calling us terfs.

The language thing

Punch a terf stab a terf burn a terf

Punch a woman stab a woman burn a woman

"Being A Twat Is Not The Same As Having One"

I need to cross stitch that...

DanaPhoenix · 07/06/2019 14:01

So I've decided to sign up to Mumsnet again after deleting my account due to previous concerns about data here. I have continued to occasionally lurk both here and twitter to keep informed of the happenings.

Firstly to Julie Bindel, I'm in awe of your bravery, Courage calls to courage, or perhaps in my case self preservation (some may call it cowardice and probably are not wrong). It's my understanding that she has so many other important things on her plate that she, as an independent woman, is completely entitled to decide what she wants to prioritise. Respect to her.

Frankly I find some posters defence of CB's mental health abhorrent as well as confusing. I saw the recent celebration from TRA's about the WHO (iirc) declaration that Transgender is not a mental health issue. Now it's being used as an excuse for VAW. No. Stop hedging your effn bets. That is not how this works.

So many times we have witnessed people expressing concern about children/teens and the possibility (read extreme likelihood) that their dysphoria could be related to other underlying conditions. Only to be shut down and told NO. I really want to swear but it probably won't bode well for my first post back.

I'm not sure what services are on offer for people suffering with mental health conditions over in the UK. If it is anything like down under it is extremely poor. We had a big shut down of services in (I think 90's was not paying too much attention) this was quite valid as patients were subjected to abuse. However there was no infrastructure set in place for their support upon release into the community nor much monitoring to ensure that those that needed it were taking their medications. I could go into far more detail but reluctant to derail this thread.

To close on a lighter note I'm sending lang cleng over the interwebs, a huge bowl of Weetbix (not weetabix in Oz) and bananas. God I hope I've got the poster right in my memory. Because that warrior woman needs some sustenance. I'd send some to Julie too, but apparently it's not particularly popular over there. 🤷🏼‍♀️

DanaPhoenix · 07/06/2019 14:04

Ugh so sorry. I meant LangCleg. Jesus.

MoleSmokes · 07/06/2019 14:17

@Absolutepowercorrupts "He is clearly Male so until it became clear that comments referring to him as a man would not be deleted . . . "

I hope you are right. It is a crime against sanity to punish anyone for referring to him as anything other than a man.

Julie has responded to the predictable victim-blaming Prick News article:

“I despise your woman-hating, anti-lesbian rag, and would rather give Donald Trump a massage than speak to you.”

FloralBunting · 07/06/2019 14:53

Lololol. She intimated that we could guess what her response to them was. It's even better than I expected.

LangCleg · 07/06/2019 15:40

8) 'But everyone agrees with me. they do it in secret thats why you don't know (we all talk about you behind your back)

This one makes me piss my pants every single time!

Dana

(With the weetabix i mean)

That's a double welcome back for you right there!

‘The lots of pms agreeing with me’ does make me smirk
