I just love this woman! She undoubtedly has the Midas touch when it comes to marketing and publicity.

I have been to several of her events over the years, and she has time for each and every woman who comes to see her.

Any other fans here?

I'm not sure that Blanchard's science has been debunked. Unless that means that the TRAs screamed about it, because it doesn't fit their agenda.

Anyway, KJK is clever and sassy and doesn't give a hooping funt about upsetting extremists, who go looking for offence. She's a gem.

It would be interesting to see Blanchard's work updated to include transmen. (If it has, my apologies.)

I don't know, I read some of it a couple of years ago.

Lol - I’m a productive member of society

Mmmmhmmm. Odd in that case why you are spending so much time attempting to wind feminists up on the internet.

From Wiki….

if the references aren’t good enough for you I’m happy to do additional detective work to
dig up the dirt on her.

On 28 January 2019, Keen attended an event hosted by The Heritage Foundation in Washington, D.C. opposed to the Equality Act, which would add sexual orientation and gender identity to existing civil rights law, and posted a video from inside the conference praising their coverage of the issue.[1]

In February 2019, Keen traveled to Norway to speak at a red-brown Mot Dag conference alongside Hans Jørgen Lysglimt Johansen, a far-right Norwegian politician and Holocaust denialist, who she took a selfie with. Keen later said she didn't know who Lysglimt was.[2][42][43]

Keen has described Emily Zinos as "fabulous". Zinos is a member of the far-right Minnesota Family Council and believes that contraception and abortion "have an immediate destructive effect on society."[43]

According to Media Matters for America, Keen has repeatedly expressed support for far-right English activist Tommy Robinson.[2]

In October 2019, she appeared in an interview with Jean-François Gariépy, a far-right YouTuber who calls for a "white ethno-state" and has made videos with neo-Nazis Richard B. Spencer and Mark Collett as well as former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. Keen later stated she did not realise he was a white nationalist. She also gave an interview to Soldiers of Christ Online, later stating she wasn't aware it was linked to the far-right,[5][44][6] as well as an interview with Sebastian Gorka, previously Deputy Assistant to the President for Donald Trump.[10]

In January 2020, Keen spoke at a panel organized by The Heritage Foundation and WoLF.[45]

On 24 March 2022, Keen appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight, a conservative American talk show, to discuss her protest of the NCAA Division I Women's Swimming Championship.[46]

During her "Let Women Speak" tour, Keen posed for a photo with Edgar J. Delatorre, a member of the Proud Boys who was present at the January 6 United States Capitol attack.[10]

From Wiki….

According to Media Matters for America, Keen has repeatedly expressed support for far-right English activist Tommy Robinson.[2]

This is the reference at [2]:

Peltz, Madeline (26 February 2019). "Right-wing media and think tanks are aligning with fake feminists who dehumanize trans people". Media Matters For America. Retrieved 19 October 2022.

www.mediamatters.org/tucker-carlson/right-wing-media-and-think-tanks-are-aligning-fake-feminists-who-dehumanize-trans

This is what that article has to say on this point:

"Additionally, Parker has repeatedly expressed support for far-right anti-Muslim activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, also known as Tommy Robinson."

The "evidence" cited to support that assertion consists of two tweets, neither of which "express support" for Tommy Robinson:

Tweet 1:
KJK asks for evidence about allegations about Tommy Robinson, also saying, "You may well be right."

The Quote Tweet shows the interpretation by another person on Twitter that KJK is "defending Tommy Robinson".
(Person is Katie-from-Wales with the famous claim that "transwomen are women because . . . arm-creases", who also hallucinates razor-blades under stickers and is fond of children - see threads on the Fruit Farms).
cloudfront.mediamatters.org/static/uploader/image/2019/02/19/katie.png

Tweet 2:

Shows out-of-context statement made by KJK about "offence culture", drawing comparison between Muslims and transwomen.
Quote tweet shows assertion by Katie-from-Wales that this is evidence that KJK is "enraged" that "her mate" Tommy Robinson has been arrested for racial hatred.
(Impossible to know without seeing the context whether there is any truth to Katie-from-Wales's allegations or why Katie interprets KJK's statement as evidence of her being "enraged". No evidence is cited that KJK and TR are "mates".)
cloudfront.mediamatters.org/static/uploader/image/2019/02/19/katie1.png

So, not a single speck of evidence of KJK "expressing support for Tommy Robinson" in the Media Matters article cited by Wikipedia, just two allegations by a trans-activist (Katie-from-Wales-with-the-arm-creases) based on Katie's biased interpretations of two out-of-context tweets by KJK that do not mention Tommy Robinson plus Katie's unsupported allegation that KJK and TR are "mates".

If the Wikipedia article was not massively biased, because written by trans-activists, it might say something like:

Although Parker has been repeatedly accused of expressing support for far-right anti-Muslim activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, also known as Tommy Robinson, she has actually described him as "an insignificant man, a racist yob, an opportunist with ill motives".

Who is the artist? I love this it is beautiful.

I don't know who. It's brilliant though. No wonder all these twits are so jealous of her.

And her hair...

...nails

Yes indeed she is a force to be reckoned with, beautiful and glamorous too. She also has so much energy! As you say only natural that there would be jealousy. I am excited to see her projects for 2023 come to fruition.

RedAndBlueStripedGolfingUmbrella · 14/01/2023 00:25

Bingo
Finally got around to how lovely her hair is, and bootiful and how any one who doesn't agree and bow down is just well jel 😂
Think that's near enough a full house 😁

Yes, me. I admire her strength and confidence- she gives no fucks, takes no prisoners, and is never intimidated by the TRAs. She is very plain speaking, has no truck with pronouns or “be kind” and her events give a voice to ordinary women all over the UK.
My DD called her phone in, and Kellie Jay actually remembered her from the Edinburgh rally (DD runs Gender Critical Autistics on FB) and was really welcoming.
She is running a successful business off the back of this, with gc and feminist merchandise, but I don’t begrudge her that. The products seem well made - DD and I have mugs and t shirts. The more sunlight and publicity she can generate, the better.

Bloody hell! I know this comment is quite old, but I'm a member of Gender Critical Autistics. There's a few groups on Facebook where I see the same names (an autism group, GC and rad fem ones, and Harry Potter) and the autism one I'm in, despite not being openly GC, doesn't ban people for expressing such views, which is nice.

Anyway, to the topic at hand. Kellie-Jay is awesome. I like the way she talks about putting aside our differences in order to fight this nasty insidious ideology that's hurting women and children. It's that simple. I think of the cross party group of MPs who are against it, and the members of the House of Lords and Scottish and Welsh parliament, all from different political parties. If they can do it then so can we.
She's also bloody brave, dogged, and has given other women the courage to speak up, including me. It was her video after the JK Rowling nonsense really kicked off that made me break my silence. I'm going to Speaker's Corner this year, for the first time. It needs to be done. It's like a pilgrimage.

Poor old ELO and their ignoring the evidence.

beastlyslumber · 14/01/2023 08:12

Another thing I appreciate about KJK is how calm and collected she is when confronted by absolute idiots. She never loses it. It's so impressive.

Her interview with Harrop still fills me with joy whenever I watch it. She is magnificent.

Dont be silly

Wellies54 · 14/01/2023 08:55

Do you ever look back at history and think, how would I have reacted? For example, would I have been a suffragette, a suffragist or done nothing? It's easy to speculate and view ourselves in a positive light in regard to how brave or outspoken we would have been. Right now in the battle to preserve Women's Rights Kellie -Jay is one of those rare, brave people who puts thoughts into action and stands up for what is right knowing the sacrifice she is making, knowing that every horrible slur that could be thrown at her will be said repeatedly, knowing that everything she does will be twisted by TRAs. She is prepared to put her head above the parapet for all women and girls and take the hate. All she is doing is saying 'sex matters'. That's it. Nothing more, nothing sinister. I have faith that enough people with common sense will eventually wake up and see this but without KJK and the few other brave people like JKR and Graham Linehan who could easily sit back and say nothing, but choose to sacrifice so much, we would be sleep walking into the wholesale destruction of women's rights.

Poor old ELO and their ignoring the evidence.

It is a sight to see the pivots and twists that they go through. So after admitting that despite the constant assertion of being ‘platformed’ with a Holocaust denier that there is no evidence, that person, one who posted about their profession of 25 years on a thread they started, then posts they believe wiki and biased media without ever verifying (seriously, my teen has been taught at school to never do that!!!).

Then, armed with the miniscule bit of information - that KJK has a theology degree, writes that she must be an evangelical type of Christian or even just Christian because they used a slur. When she clearly has stated numerous times that she is an atheist.

Then it becomes about her lack of a ‘career’! And more about her ‘handlers’ being the driving force- her just being a puppet. Seriously getting into misogynistic territory here!

Then it became about her looks and her charisma! How fucking misogynistic could that then get.

I did love the attempt to plant a seed of doubt with painting her as an extremist, and one who might switch sides!

That progression was such a great live demonstration by someone who seems to live in a carefully curated bubble and seems to believe only the ‘safe’ sources.

Yet those ‘safe’ sources are some of the least trustworthy in the country’s media and they publish clickbait articles bordering on propaganda, and get away with it because they are ‘opinion’ pieces and not investigative journalism.

And it is also a great demonstration of how Wikipedia has long been the domain for attracting particular interest groups as ‘editors’ around some topics. Groups not interested in balanced views or even simply stating facts.

I am sure that readers picked up the inconsistencies. The absolute pedantic mess over a widely used term, to the constant, doubling down using ‘platformed with a Holocaust denier’ with no evidence at all.

There is a particular personality type of people who do this.

Either way, I doubt any poster or reader is left thinking ELO is posting in good faith.

Ah I see KJK is still being maligned on the thread set up for us to express our appreciation.
