"certain women" means the women who are her critics. She doesn't mean transwomen, because she doesn't think transwomen are women.

Oh, OK - so the women who don't always agree, if we've got an opinion that doesn't always tally, we've got to keep quiet?
Maybe it's just me but I don't see how that's feminism.
Silencing women is OK but only if it's the ones you want silenced?

Datun · 18/10/2019 00:24

Instead of endlessly speculating about what Posie means, just ask her.

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 00:25

She didn't say anyone needs to keep quiet, she said she would continue to do what she's doing, and that she's not doing it to gain popularity, or to please certain women.

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 00:29

or to please certain women

Which your post just clarified that wasn't transwomen, was biological women (with us being the so called "cunty" kind I've seen referred to so charmingly on here, not my words before anyone starts lol)
There's a voice for women.
Seemingly only those who all fall in and toe the line though...

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 00:31

She doesn't claim to be a voice for women. In fact, she makes it clear she's only speaking for herself.

And as far as I can tell, nobody has asked you to keep quiet, Wotcha. I asked that you watch the video if you wish to discuss it's content with me. If you don't want to that's fine by me - but others are free to interpret your comments on a video you haven't watched as filibustering.

Creepster · 18/10/2019 00:38

How do you get from her being indifferent to whether or not she pleases you to her silencing you?

Datun · 18/10/2019 00:40

Straw

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 18/10/2019 00:41

They're also free to choose not to engage with those they deem not to be in good faith, or to redirect questions which only Posie can answer to Posie.

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 01:00

And as far as I can tell, nobody has asked you to keep quiet, Wotcha

Have you read the thread?
There's been lots of not just to me, but to others as well - why are you still here? been here for days, filibuster type shit (can't be arsed to go scroll through to find but it's there for anyone who wants to go see)
I've only been on the thread since about 8pm tonight before anyone whinges I've been on here derailing for yonks, really haven't....
nooo not DARVO before anyone starts it's what happens....
Poster said certain women. Not transwomen. So that'd be women but only the women that agrees with us....

Straw
What is? I'm replying to points or comments made directly to me on here....

How do you get from her being indifferent to whether or not she pleases you to her silencing you?
What? Where do you get Posie is being indifferent? Her views blatantly aren't?
I'm saying views on here are silencing. You seem to be able to have a view as a woman but if it's only the right view otherwise you need to be quiet.

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:07

Of course I've read the thread - Ive been on since the beginning unlike you.

You said this: Oh, OK - so the women who don't always agree, if we've got an opinion that doesn't always tally, we've got to keep quiet?

-about posie's "certain women"

But nobody's told you to keep quiet.

I've seen people question your motives for posting on a thread about a video you refuse to watch, but feel happy to critique, despite not watching it... that's all.

Butterisbest · 18/10/2019 01:09

WotchaTalkinAboutWillis
Posie's reference to certain women is a reference to a group of feminists that are extremely busy slandering and issuing defamatory statements about her.
It has fuck all to do with men that say they are women.
This is a concerted effort by certain women that have decided that Posie should be silenced and debased, discredited and disgraced because they don't agree with her attitude or her way of getting her thoughts into the public view.
Many of the comments are very similar to comments made about her on this thread.

OccasionalKite · 18/10/2019 01:12

The point that Posie is making, to everyone of all political shades, and very well and effectively, is:

Woman: adult human female.

I love that.

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:14

I wish I'd written what Butterisbest just wrote. Pretend I did Grin

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 01:15

But nobody's told you to keep quiet

Have you READ the posts that say filibustering, TRA's etc towards those who don't always agree, including me as one of those? It happens.
It's like a potatoes patatas argument.
It's all the same - exactly what sometimes happens

Datun · 18/10/2019 01:19

What does Posie mean?

I don't know, ask her.

Stop silencing me!

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:20

I'll refer you back to butterisbest's post, here Wotcha.

And you are filibustering - you're not listening to anything anyone's saying here - you're not being either silenced or ignored, people are answering your questions.

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 01:22

Of course I've read the thread - Ive been on since the beginning unlike you.

That's my point exactly though - if I'd been on the thread since the beginning I'd be accused of having nothing better to do and why am I here.
My saying I've not been on the thread since the beginning doesn't mean I haven't read the whole thread, as I have.)

OccasionalKite · 18/10/2019 01:23

What is wrong about Woman = adult human female?

Please explain why you disagree!

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 01:27

you're not being either silenced or ignored, people are answering your questions
I'm not saying they're not answering my questions, there's some that engage and have good points.
It's the others I was on about. Those that would rather discredit or sow doubts than actually reply.
There's a load of good posters on here. A core few though when it comes to being asked anything, has to revert back to hair or kittens.
I want discussion, I don't want anyone being silenced

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:28

Wotcha - why did you ask about posie's opinion on abortion upthread? Was it because you've been listening to the slurs being spread around about her?

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:30

I want discussion, I don't want anyone being silenced

I''m happy to discuss with you - but it's a bit bloody difficult when you refuse to watch the video? I'm sure one more little click on the odious man's YT won't make that much difference!

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 01:30

Wotcha - why did you ask about posie's opinion on abortion upthread?

I didn't Confused
Am I being mistaken for someone else again like earlier in the thread?

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:33

Apologies - it was Tequila. Perhaps Tequila would like to answer that then.

OccasionalKite · 18/10/2019 01:34

Again:
Woman = adult human female.
And there seem to be lots of factions who are desperate to shut down the simple, physical, provable fact, that Woman = adult human female.

zebrasdontwearbras · 18/10/2019 01:34

But you joined the thread supporting Tequila's and Early's posts - so easy to mix up. My apologies.
