If any of you would like to forward this onto the press, these journalists have been taking a keen interest in stonewall and women’s rights. Alternatively, if you’re on Twitter, they are easy to contact.

@Helleofabore

A tweet from GG

"The safety and wellbeing of our members is our absolute priority. We follow rigorous recruitment and vetting procedures, have clear policies, and a volunteer code of conduct which volunteers are expected to follow to keep our members safe. We are aware of concerns raised."

"We are looking into this as a matter of urgency and will provide the necessary support and action in line with our compliance procedures"

Keep on writing in, I say.

necessary support and action The poor dear should be supported and action must be taken against these horrible tweeters insisting on safeguarding .

including trans women and non-binary members who were recorded as female at birth, who can make their Girlguiding Promise

This is so devious. Not everyone is aware that a transwoman is actually a MtF. '' Trans women and non-binary members who were recorded as female at birth '' is suggesting transwomen are actually born female. Very sly.

I noticed pp saying the page on Nottinghamshire gg about commissioners has been taken down.

Sometimes when I think I’ve seen it all, I find out I haven’t.

They weren’t nearly fucking rigorous enough.

They were. They will have done a social media check I’m sure, no one wouldn’t these days. I don’t buy they didn’t.

The problem is they thought this was fine.

If it was a woman it wouldn’t be fine, but the poor tw are just finding their feet with social rules for women and just got too enthusiastic at finally being their inner woman and let’s just support them finding their feet and learning to celebrate their sexual womanhood and offer our gracious support as we are honoured by their bravery. This can help us all grow as woman. We should be grateful to have such an opportunity to extend compassion.

@SheldonesqueTheBstard no, they were too busy virtue signalling after women had to step down for warning them this sort of shit would happen.

We know that these kind of people need to be in female spaces for (at the very least) validation of their female identities. But those who haven’t fallen down the rabbit hole and choose to look away and remain pure only believe they are doing good by allowing one of the most marginalised in society be included.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 23/11/2021 18:11

Aye. They will have been totally rigorous in the checks.

Just not rigorous enough when protecting the rights of our women of the future.

They may think it was fine. Guess what…

Just to show that Girl Guides are not allowed to shoot at animal or people shaped targets.

Its almost as if destruction of girl guiding was the ultimate aim.

Artichokeleaves · 23/11/2021 18:18

It's certainly hard to see any real valuing of or care for the girls in the actions of this commissioner.

@WholeClassKeptIn

I've been wondering about this today, too.
Ttoomany · 23/11/2021 18:21

Is it enough to allow trans identifying men and boys into Girl Guides? Isn't their logic that all women's spaces should be open to all men? The abolition of women's spaces?

RepentMotherfucker · 23/11/2021 18:23

This is why my dd is isn't in Guides. All her friends go. I'd rather send her to the dodgy 'Spoons up by the bus station for an hour every Monday tbh.

Thefartingsofaofdenmarkstreet · 23/11/2021 18:28

What. The. Actual. SHIT??? Shock

Glad to see they are looking into it though!

I shall await Owen Jones's tweets about the 'targeted hate campaign of harrassment by anti-trans activists' towards Monica.....

Scraggythang · 23/11/2021 18:32

@Ttoomany an experiment to see how it goes? (Those of us switched on enough know) make us fight for our sex segregated spaces all over again?

Sounds overly dramatic, and if I voiced it out loud everyone would think I’d lost the plot… but yet, it’s how I feel. It may not have affected women’s everyday life yet. But it could.

That is all kinds of wrong... 😱😱😱 ewwwwwww

CookieMumsters · 23/11/2021 18:42

I'm a GG leader and, as many PP have, emailed and tweeted to complain.

However, this person isn't a 'senior leader' in the scale of the organisation - that title makes it sound much more grand than it is. The equivalent would be an area manager in charge if 7 or 8 shops.

It's unacceptable that this person has ANY role, but they are barely more than a group leader.

TheLikesofMe · 23/11/2021 18:44

Withdraw your daughters!

It is only when there are drastically dwindling numbers of girl guides-less than 100 in the whole country-that they will be forced to stop this shit.

If only 20% do it, they will explain it away as the actions of Trans Phobics. It has to be a big number.

Withdraw your daughters now: all of us together. We have a voice-they ignore it but we have feet to leave upon-use them!

At least you know exactly what you are getting there, unlike in the Guides who are pretending to be one thing and are something else entirely.
foxgoosefinch · 23/11/2021 18:46

I notice the policy copied above also singles out participating in war games as an unacceptable activity. Like, for example, collecting replica firearms, role-playing and posing with them, those kind of war games? Grrr.

RedCarpetRebellion · 23/11/2021 18:47

@RedDogsBeg

Exactly why people vote conservative.
