God no woman would get away with this

No you can say TWAW without believing they’ve literally changed biological sex class.

Well, you can say it, but it's utterly meaningless if your definition of the word woman is something you invent on the spot.

Well, if mimmymum has dropped him, I'll follow, not that I think he'll notice.

No you can say TWAW without believing they’ve literally changed biological sex class If you say it to yourself enough times, maybe you will believe it? Otherwise pointless.

You can chant TWAW without believing a word of it. People do it all the time when the cult comes after them for transgressing.

Ah - capitulation.

I don't find Ricky Gervais remotely amusing as a comedian but I follow him on Twitter both because he loves animals and knows that there are only 2 sexes.
That Helen woman is hilarious, she actually thinks he'd be bothered that she unfollowed him!

Oh no, they are trying to recruit Ricky... if only wayward women got such gentle outreach.

Don’t do it, Ricky!!

Ricky I can see you care about:

(a) working class women in Canada (but by implication everywhere); and

(b) animals

This is so rare. WC women have been abandoned, there are women suffering sexual assault in prison in Canada and all the governor will do, is dispense Morning After Pill for free 😡 so thank you

Well, I suppose her '15 minutes of Twitter fame' went better than her day in court, at least.

So she unfollowed him this morning then decided she would refollow and simper?

FFS she makes my dog look cunning

Yeah, I'm laughing a bit at Mimmymum fluttering her eyelashes at Ricky Gervais - yet totally despising and slandering Mumsnet every chance she gets.

Everything Gervais has said about Caitlyn Jenner, for example, would be deleted on mumsnet- but Gervais gets the 'oh do come and speak to me' treatment and wished a Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween Mimmymum! If you'd like to speak to parents and professionals who are not sure that putting children on puberty blocking drugs is the best thing for their long-term mental and physical health, do let us know

Ah, Ricky's blocked her now. So the "my poor trans child though..." plea didn't work any better on Gervais than it did in court.

What happened with Robert Webb? I didn't know he'd retracted anything.

Ricky's blocked her after that simpering little pity squeak? The man has actually gone up in my estimation somewhat, and that's not a thing that happens often.

Maybe someone's told him about her and Miranda.

Happy Halloween Mimmymum. Hope that you had a great day

The TRAlalalaban are after him.
I don't know if you could call it a pile on since he has millions of followers and it's just a few people but still they are trying.
Someone brought up that he uses the joke, I identify as... a few times and they are telling him to get a new joke,that he is stiring up hate for trans people, denying non binary people exist, oh and my favourite, someone is telling him to stop talking about Yaniv because its over and done with. Someone pointed out the case was literally last week.

There's a huge list of stuff the TRAs don't like, because it pinpoints the absurdity of their position.

Yaniv and "I identify as...." are but two.

Shame

My personal fave was the "dogs are transphobic" one.

My personal fave was the "dogs are transphobic" one.

The what?
(Apart from the obvious, that they can tell what sex a person is with their eyes shut)

Butterymuffin

I hate to give The Metro a plug, but here is a version of what happened. Robert later deleted is tweet.

Errol, yes, the dog can tell the person's sex regardless of gender identity. Bad dogs.

It was posted as a genuine problem on reddit, I think. A woman whose DH had transitioned MTF, but the family dog (who didn't like men) failed to recognise the change....

How do you effectively wokescold a dog? Are there enough doggie training treats in the world to accomplish it, or do you have to hang a shaming sign round it's neck to induce the re-education?

@Fieldofgreycorn No you can say TWAW without believing they’ve literally changed biological sex class
No, you can't.

Mimmymum never had a chance. He’s loving it....

the tra's are going nuts at him.

apparently a transwoman leaving the house is the bravest thing in the world, ever.

good on ricky, Im looking forward to the second series of that after life show.

His timeline is such a pile on now, it's hard to remember what he said in the first place to cause such ire......

Oh that's right. He made a Yaniv halloween joke on twitter.

Off to Gulag with him for Re-education Program!
