Thanks Spooky although I imagine this will be yet another case of rinse and repeat from the usual suspects who are determined to deflect and derail.

Oh well, at least this will bump the link to the thread up.

I just saw the article that WendyMcWendface linked:

Wow, biased. The lesbian group is referred to as radicals.

Here, a wheelchair-using protester who says she was assaulted at the event:

However, the video has been taken down for some reason.

People keep coming back to the dictionary definition of things and it is weird

Yes, the actual treatment of lesbians asserting their boundaries was appalling.

At the end of the last thread, Jacky mentioned that the Leeds Live report used the term "radical protesters" and did not even use the word lesbian once in the article.

It needs saying again - these lesbians were asserting their right to be defined as female homosexuals.

Men cannot be lesbians, and lesbians don't like penises - regardless of the "gender identity" of the owner.

We aren't debating dictionary definitions here, they're medical science definitions.

Defining what a lesbian is, is radical now.

Being a homosexual is being a protester now.

You can't be a woman if you're masculine, you can't be a man if you're feminine.

Welcome to the 1800s.

Now billed as progressive by misogynists everywhere and showing in a cinema near you.

Fortunately, UK law defines a lesbian for us so no-one can argue with that.

The misogyny and lesbophobia from these men is horrific though, isn't it?

It is truly unbelievable.

The misogyny and lesbophobia from these men is horrific though, isn't it?

It really is. And it's at fucking pride! That's what I can't get past. The very organisation/campaign to make people accept homosexuals is now rejecting them.

Because men and their sexy times.

I have concluded that women, massively, are the stronger sex, mentally.

The Leeds Live report didn't use the word lesbian once. It also failed to report on the reason for the protest - that lesbians were under attack for saying they were female homosexuals. At Pride.

The stench of misogyny and lesbophobia is unbearable.

Being a homosexual is being a protester now

Nobody said that though FFS lol

Or that
Defining what a lesbian is, is radical now

Complete and total re-writing. Do you think people can't read? Or have forgotten what was actually said?
(Least the thread's been linked so people can see for themselves)

I notice Leeds Resisters have been contacted for comment, I hope they get the chance to.

What did the baying crowd call the lesbian protesters again?

"Homosexual bigots" - wasn't it? So much homophobia in that baying crowd.

I notice Leeds Resisters have been contacted for comment, I hope they get the chance to..

Me too. And that it's reported verbatim.

Roses- read the links.

For women to be protesting this at pride suggests there is something happening. That there is a genuine threat. I can’t believe how crazy this is. But then it’s all about what men want and once again it’s about making women small and controlling them. We’re expected to roll over.

Fair enough but it IS being re-written as nobody said that anywhere.

Yes i hopehope the resisters respond. Maybe send thethe poat a copy of their videos.

Yup! Men go so far as to kill us to silence us. So those of us who are alive must keep kicking and make our case everywhere and anywhere we can.

And the behaviour of certain posters on the previous thread just makes us fight harder here and elsewhere.

I've fallen down a rabbit hole of 'pride' flags trying to id what they were...

^ that says it all really.

Master and slave flag anyone?

Complete and total re-writing. Do you think people can't read? Or have forgotten what was actually said?

Read the links roses. Read the bloody links. Stop being so lazy

This is the Leeds fetish lot. Rubber, leather and pup by the looks of it. There were other flags on the float I can't ID.

That clip on the Leeds live site is really intimidating, well done to those who were there.

It's total re-writing as in the fact I was asked to define radical on there so insinuates that it was posters on the thread who were saying that.
I've read the links too. Where has anyone on the links said what you're claiming?
What you said is not there. Anywhere.

Fetish is fun and join the freaks and kinksters???

Pride needs to own this. They need to stop hiding behind homosexual activism and announce their raison d'être - men's sexual rights.
