How is this anything other than a men's rights movement?

They just really really really really really do not want to accept the idea of sex having any biological basis, do they? Men and women have different immune responses & pathology with respect to a range of diseases (flu, MS, heart disease). No-one knows exactly why for each specific illness but it is based in physical differences in male/female biology.

But sure keep on denying reality and pretending that all differences between male and female health outcomes are related to some imaginary social preferences and behavioral choices. (Also just love the idea that women aren’t frontline medical workers when most graduates from medical school are now female and nurses are dying all over the place because of coronavirus- what a stupid person JF is).

Nope. But you think they would just ignore it, rather than shine a massive, illuminating, dazzlingly high wattage light bulb on the whole thing, by talking patent bollocks.

elevated risk to men of blood transfused from pregnant cis women what other type of pregnant women are there? Dingbat.

I am not a Twitter user, but when I press show this thread, every single time it's just fae talking to themself???

Danceswithwarthogs · 03/04/2020 15:20

Not pulling their weight? This statement doesn’t deserve the energy required to respond really, but bearing mind this disease kills the sick/elderly by a country mile... I can’t imagine many of them are routinely pulling any sort of weight (or intubating many people).

In fact research shows that it’s women who usually carry on with a disproportionate amount of housework/caring responsibility even beyond retirement or alongside chronic illness/cancer treatment. They just tend not to make a song and dance about it.

What an ignorant loser (and clearly has no idea about what being a woman is).

AnneOfCloves · 03/04/2020 15:27

If Fae were any more self-involved they'd need surgery to remove their head from their butt.

More Or Less covered this on R4; even where more women than menget infected AND in countries with similar drinking and smoking levels, men still die more. Because chromosomes.

TheWordWomanIsTaken · 03/04/2020 15:31

what a fucking dick
literally

Whatisthisfuckery · 03/04/2020 15:42

Oh dear, somebody isn’t getting enough attention. So many of those NHS staff, carers and supermarket workers are women, and they’re being applauded in the streets, and poor Fae is feeling the injury.

That and biology. A curse on that pesky biology, that refuses to bow its head and obey.

Michelleoftheresistance · 03/04/2020 15:42

The utter loathing and despising of female people is so intrinsic to it all, Fae demonstrates that like no one else.

Some people are really starting to stomp that the attention's gone, aren't they? The Look At Meeeeee desperation is growing.

Rather than patent bollocks, I read naked fear leading to angry outbursts expressed through the usual misogyny .

Viruses are not postmodern, however much genderists might wish them to be. Nobody likes to contemplate their mortality. And yet... risk factors are no respecters of this. It's the stages of grief - denial, fear, anger, bargaining.... one wonders if the final stage of acceptance will ever be reached in this case, however.

Fieldofgreycorn · 03/04/2020 15:46

If only the virus could talk ?

It certainly knits.

tenlittlecygnets · 03/04/2020 15:53

Jane Fae HATES women. It's all about Jane.

Jane's poor daughter - telling her right before her GCSEs? Selfish bellend.

At least Jane has very very few followers on Twitter so nobody is listening to their bonkers, poorly punctuated rantings.

NotTerfNorCis · 03/04/2020 15:57

I notice it's 'cis women' not pulling their weight. Fae is assuming transwomen act like men... wonder why.

Of course the different death rate has nothing to do with women not 'pulling their weight '. Most nurses are women. And there's nothing to suggest more men than women are infected - just that the outcome can be more serious for them.

JonHammIsMyJamm · 03/04/2020 16:01

Jog on Jane, you pathetic little worm.

RoyalCorgi · 03/04/2020 16:03

Fae is assuming transwomen act like men... wonder why.

And with that statement, the whole house of cards comes tumbling down.

Because if trans women were women, they would be behaving as women behave. They would be not pulling their weight. Hmm

And yet it turns out that trans women behave exactly like men.

Fae has destroyed Fae's own argument but is too stupid to see it.

Whatisthisfuckery · 03/04/2020 16:04

I think what JF means is that not enough women are dying. JF likes stories where women die, especially ones in which they are raped, tortured and mutilated. JF has even been to court to defend the right of men to write such stories, about a very famous all female pop group in this specific case I believe.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 03/04/2020 16:04

Excellent point.

NotTerfNorCis · 03/04/2020 16:07

Reading Fae's thread on Twitter, I get the definite impression that Fae doesn't like 'cis women'. I can sense the sneer whenever Fae uses that phrase.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 03/04/2020 16:07

But you think they would just ignore it, rather than shine a massive, illuminating, dazzlingly high wattage light bulb on the whole thing, by talking patent bollocks.

You would, wouldn't you? Unless the desire for attention at any cost outweighed it.

JonHammIsMyJamm · 03/04/2020 16:08

Yes, it’s strange isn’t it @Ereshkigalangcleg. TWAW until they aren’t. Why is that?

MrsDoylesTeaBags · 03/04/2020 16:26

Oh my, I have just found JFs thread! Good grief how self obsessed and in total denial can one person be?

Is this the person who's always trotted out as the reasonable trans voice on the BBC? I think I saw them once on The Big Question's complaining about Western Feminism and saying that women in the middle east and developing countries have it much worse so just smile and be greatful (or somethng like that)

The one thing I miss about Twitter is the insight into other people's psyche. What a fascinating person. my theory is they need to externise their hatred / confusion / disappointment onto nameless 'others' to avoid facing whats really going on inside.

MrsDoylesTeaBags · 03/04/2020 16:28

But its not a slur NotTerf absolutlely not

HerFemaleness · 03/04/2020 17:08

Sure, because hardly any nurses, care workers or supermarket staff are women, right?

Hah, exactly my thoughts.

Because reality doesn't fit Fae's beliefs, Fae does away with reality and invents Fae's own. In this world women are apparently hidden away and safe, we're not out there being teachers and nurses and doctors and cleaners, and supermarket staff.

Michelleoftheresistance · 03/04/2020 17:09

TWAW until they aren’t. Why is that?

Read around while exploring the idea that male people are men, and male people are women too. In fact men are everything. Your actual female is a support human at best, or a subhuman prop or annoyance at worst.

That honestly is what underpins almost everything when you dig down into it. There is no identifying 'with'.
