I've never seen a board I agree with so much, but I am from texas. I love this board!! Does anyone here frequent other huge rad feminist/ gender critical boards? How is it possible your board seems so devoid of male trolling?

Was it the Lux magazine piece that. Roughy you to us OP?

Brought you to us ^

@persistentwoman

Welcome Parakeetkeet Can't wait to visit my dear friends in Texas again once this pandemic is over. Sadly my friends tell me that discussing these issues is hard in the USA - there's always someone popping up misrepresenting women as right wing bigots. At last on here a quick read of threads proves that not to be the case.
You visited before? What part?? I read about your gender critical movement there in the UK and was stunned. Thats how I found mumsnet. Your board is amazing !! I do believe we had something similar and great on reddit, but gender critical was banned, pinkpill was banned. And I feel homeless now. 😭

Reddit sucks. It turns out one of the main admins who'd been working there was trans, and silent about an abusive pedo father, who kept a sexually abused child in their attic. This trans woman was actually very politically active on the left. Its unbelievable. The whole reason no one questioned her was BECAUSE she was trans.

Fuck reddit. They since took the trans flag header down from trollxchromosomes and replaced it with tin foil. It was a space deliberately made for women, and yet we had to suffer their insufferable banner. I'm just so done with reddit.

Anyway, OP, I know Texas is huge and I have no idea how we could meet up, but maybe there's a way?

Why yes it was. Dont ever stop what you're doing. 🤣

I can’t tell if you’re answering me about Lix or not. Grin

It was a doozie, though, so I’ll link it in case anyone is interested. Smile

RickiTarr · 27/04/2021 03:23

Lux not Lix. My autocorrect is trying to start a blood feud with me. 😠

Parakeetkeet · 27/04/2021 03:26

Yes that is the article. I heard about mumsnet before but when i first encountered it i thought it was a mostly board for parents.

It articulates the GC case almost suspiciously well doesn’t it? Plus it signposts sympathisers here, despite the slur word and patina of “TWAW” wokery. Mumsnet HQ will appreciate the extra traffic, too.

I think partly keeping our cover as parenting fluff and half sending up flares for women like you is a perfect state of affairs. Smile

I've not engaged with you before, but your welcome seems odd.
BrandineDelRoy · 27/04/2021 03:47

Rickietarr-- I'm not here much, but you seem very active on this thread. Do you live in Texas?

RickiTarr · 27/04/2021 03:47

Right. Delightful of you to share that. Confused

It might be a misunderstanding. I'm often wrong. Smile

Rickitar- I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about. Do you want to share messages on MN? I was trying to connect with the OP. I have no animosity towards you.

Parakeetkeet · 27/04/2021 03:58

@BrandineDelRoy

Hi, OP! I'm also in Texas. MN is unmatched in the US. If it hasn't already been mentioned, you might want to look at efforts by WOLF: www.womensliberationfront.org.

Also, apparently a Democratic Texas legislator testified in committee to there being six sexes last week. It's almost as if the Democrats don't want to turn Texas blue (or even purple): www.google.com/amp/s/amp.thepostmillennial.com/theres-six-biological-sexes-not-two-says-texas-rep-talarico.

Hi! What is MN ? Sorry I'm mostly familiar with reddit, ovarit and twitter. Though I dont completely agree with it, I stuck to reddit's FDS after the bans. Wgtow and Twoxchromosomes too.

With the way politics are here why am I not surprised... There's always got to be some spectacle thrown in.
6 genders seriously....i can barely stand 2.

Where in texas ? Im in the central texas area. I just know there are a ton of GCers here. Do you know any irl? I met so many on reddit back in the day.

RickiTarr · 27/04/2021 04:02

It’s just a thread @BrandineDelRoy

Everyone chips in.

You sounded as though you were troll hinting me.

BrandineDelRoy · 27/04/2021 04:02

Hi Patakeet-- I am central Texas. I'm trying to deal with someone here right now who I expect is a dude. I'll post an email address tomorrow for you so we can connect.

Maybe you can tell us all how sec doesn't matter?!

@Shizuku

Hmm, are you saying that the right wing in the US don't agree with you on issues like banning puberty blockers, or trans women in female spaces?
Oh no! Some commonsense positions might be held by people I don’t like. Cry more.
