You stated that sex≠ gender was an example of cis privilege or was it my not finding it threatening an example of my " cis" privilege? Could you explain what you meant? Thank you.

The glass/perspex cover over the memorial plaque to Cristina Ortiz was sprayed and then successfully cleaned up a month ago.

"The overwhelming majority of vandalism isn't coming from our side. It's yours. "

You have stats?

You needing an explanation of why it's threatening is cis privilege. To any trans person, it's obvious.

I would find both less threatening than actually being hanged/strangled like these trans women were

Indeed. It's fortunate that the UK is a safe place for transwomen isn't it. These countries that you list are incredibly violent to many different people. Sadly in the UK, women still experience high levels of violence / are killed, by men, every single day.

yourhairiswinterfire · 04/04/2021 18:46

Those deaths are horrific Shizuku.

Male perpetrators, or feminists?

Also mostly countries where women are raped and murdered so often it’s barely noticed.

Only male women matter, apparently 🤷‍♀️

Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

CardinalLolzy · 04/04/2021 18:55

I would find that threatening too. So we're all agreed that women have the right to put boundaries in place to protect themselves from violence?

334bu · 04/04/2021 18:56

**Parliamentarian Helen Newlove said 55 women in Britain suffered non-fatal strangulation every day, and a woman or girl was fatally strangled or asphyxiated every 10 days.

Non-fatal strangulation can lead to brain damage, internal bleeding, neurological injuries such as facial droop, loss of memory and strokes.**

Cis privilege?

Number of transwomen killed in UK 0

MsMcWibble · 04/04/2021 18:57

Very odd post, Shizuku. I just can't work out what connection those deaths have to GC feminists.

RedDogsBeg · 04/04/2021 19:10

The relevance of your list to what is happening in Spain is what exactly? Shall we do a list of all the women who have been gang raped and murdered in India, Shizuku, is that the game you are now playing?

Erkrie · 04/04/2021 19:13

Crikey, imagine doing a list of all the women, it simply wouldn't be possible.

334bu · 04/04/2021 19:14

How about the rising numbers of women victims of femicide in Brazil?

334bu · 04/04/2021 19:17

Or the number of missing First Nation women in Canada?
Or the number of women dying in menstruation huts in Nepal?

MonkeyNotOrgangrinder · 04/04/2021 19:18

Is Shizuku really not aware of just how many women are murdered by men every single day in every country, or does he or she just not think it's important?

yourhairiswinterfire · 04/04/2021 19:21

It reminds me of when feminists are blamed by activists for the horrific deaths of trans sex workers in Brazil. Instead of blaming the men who murder them.

Like we influence these men or something, as if the kind of men who buy bodies for sex and have a desire to murder give a shiny shite what women or feminists have to say about anything.

334bu · 04/04/2021 19:21

Women have " cis" privilege don't ya knowSad

Wrongsideofhistorymyarse · 04/04/2021 19:22

No such thing as cis privilege.

That’s the whole point, isn’t it?
ArabellaScott · 04/04/2021 19:24

Very happy to condemn the dead rat for you, along with any violent threats made to anyone. Of course I already condemned the violent threats and I assumed you would assume that someone who condemns violent threats would oppose nailing rats to anything, but clearly you didn't make that leap so here I am, condemning the dead rat and very happy to do so.

You know, that is the very first time I have seen someone who agitates on behalf of trans privilege ever condemn the dead rat. So, well done, Shizuku, you are a cut above most Twitter activists.

It's not nice to deface a memorial, I wholly agree.

Don't understand why you are listing the names of murdered transwomen, at all, though. How is it relevant? Are you suggesting there's some kind of connection or equivalence between the graffiti and murder?
