Twitter's got so boring - any good GC (or just plain funny) tweeters left?

Oh for the days of the lively debates with the likes of dear Magdalen Berns, the acerbic Posie Parker and Lisa Muggeridge with her encyclopedic knowledge of social history - now Glinner's gone too it feels like the debate's been silenced.

Can anyone point me in the direction of some sparky gender critical tweeters, or failing that - just some funny tweeters (Janey Godley's been a revelation to me...)

It's a gloomy day and my feed is so boring these days!

titaniamcgrath (aka andrew doyle) is good - also the comedian involved in triggernometry konstantin krisin can be good.

RoyalCorgi · 02/09/2020 17:20

@AlessandraAster is very good, though her tweets are mostly despairing rather than funny.

A whole load more tagged in this tweet:

I agree OP. I'm finding myself very bored on Twitter nowadays. Following for some suggestions.

Julie Burchill has joined so there will be some shenanigans at some point @boozeandfags

@FredSargeant is great, and what an interesting life story:

She’s funny, and got “cancelled” by TRAs in the US for interviewing detransitioners for a story.

DancelikeEmmaGoldman · 03/09/2020 04:34

Two worth following.

I left Twitter ages ago. It was just making me feel angry. Janet Golden...am I getting her mixed up with someone else because I thought she was a TRA?🤔

IHeartSusanDey · 03/09/2020 07:04

Godley.

IHeartSusanDey · 03/09/2020 07:04

Janey ffs.

KettlePolly · 03/09/2020 09:06

I wouldn't call Janey Godley a TRA, she's not gender critical/supports trans rights generally, but that's by the by for me, she's just a bloody funny woman!

IHeartSusanDey · 03/09/2020 12:08

I think she had me blocked and I never spoke once to her.

Galvantula · 04/09/2020 06:37

Janey Godley is really funny. Though she did have a big rant on Facebook the other week about getting hassled by terfs or something. Her post about it had many likes and simpering comments. Whatever was said about being gender critical was factually inaccurate as always. :(

SmallPug · 04/09/2020 06:43

Janey Godley unfortunately came out as a big supporter of trans rights over women’s rights. So disappointing. Helen Joyce is worth following.

RhymesWithOrange · 04/09/2020 06:51

Janey Godley is a TRA big time. And not that funny. Although I have respect for some other of her opinions I can't get over the TRA-ism.

I used to be a bit funny on Twitter but I'm a lot busier than I used to be so am posting less.

There's a lot of people banned that I miss but there's also a huge number of new GC people which is gratifying. Feels like the tables are turning.

IHeartSusanDey · 04/09/2020 07:07

Concur. The TRA-ism overrides everything. Can't get on board with anyone who craps over women.

SmallPug · 04/09/2020 07:45

Alison Moyet! I am probably late to this and you already follow her but her twitter account is just brilliant. Such a way with words.

DialSquare · 04/09/2020 09:49

I really like Tiffany Woman4Women @Woman4W. She's very bright, funny and doesn't take any prisoners.
I don't have a twitter account but I like to go in and read hers. And Dr Jane Clare Jones and Dr Louise Moody. All different but I enjoy reading their accounts. We can learn from all GC women. Louise has been through a horrendous time this year as many on here know so I like to see how she is getting on. Even if she doesn't know me from Adam!

NecessaryScene1 · 04/09/2020 10:13

Twitter's not their best medium, but it's worth following Helen Joyce (HJoyceGender) and Heather Heying (HeatherEHeying) there.

Fionne Orlander (FionneOrlander) on the hand is a born Twitterer. Currently taking the piss out of Sally Hines.

Nehanda (NehandaMusic) might cheer you up.

TheRealMcKennaDonsTinfoilHat · 04/09/2020 10:40

Here’s my personal favourite at the moment. I think she’s the person who was behind Jarvis DuPont (friend of Andrew Doyle and inspired the creation of Titania McGrath) but I’m not totally sure.

It’s only a matter of time before she gets banned.

James Lindsay’s tweets are absolutely hilarious. He gets into some great arguments with ‘activists’.

IHeartSusanDey · 04/09/2020 10:52

Bill Baggins is a great feminist ally on Twitter. Very incisive and always so lovely.

Thingybob · 04/09/2020 11:22

My favourite tweeter at the moment is Alison Bailey. Very clever, logical and makes her points clearly and succinctly .
