So a lesbian festival is not allowed to exclude trans women but a gay festival is allowed to exclude trans men

As if it were needed further evidence that the TRAs are effectively MRAs.

Is it the thread title?

Sorry?!

@BeatricePrior

We are agreeing On the same thing then?

Sorry I'm reading this as if you are having a bit of a disagreement with me?

If I'm wrong apologies if not I'm not sure what we are disagreeing on?

I might be reading this all wrong??

Have you actually read the article linked to in the OP?

You posted

The title may be wrong but the article is still the same? No transman at a men's event

Yes - that is correct- the gay men don't want trans men at their camp. You also said

Be fucking uproar if this was the other way round

There is a "fucking uproar" here. It is exactly the same as lesbians being criticised for not wanting trans women at their events.

Btw I'm neither agreeing or disagreeing as to whether the gay men in question are right or wrong.

I'm querying the misleading title and post and your post which seems to fail to understand these men are being criticised for being exclusionary every bit as much as lesbians are criticised.

If you look at the link I posted, the outrage cased by Mitchfest was nothing like the criticism levelled at the men only camp.

?? It's irrelevant to the article the OP linked to.

OP's point is that women are being treated differently to men, and the two articles back that up.
The men are not being criticised every bit as much as the women. Its not even close. The women weren't just criticised, they were harassed and picketed by a sustained campaign, and forced to close.

Its the same as the situation at the Hampstead Ponds. The men still have a men only pond. The other two ponds are mixed sex.

How odd. A trans man appears to understand...and yet...doesn't. Hmm

"I think it’s garbage,” he said. “There’s a huge reason many trans individuals feel they don’t belong within the LGBTQ movement. It’s because sexuality and gender identity are completely different."

“It goes back to the toxic gay culture ways, of them thinking their sexuality is solely based off of a penis."
