Genderwocky

[WarriorN]

Brilliant exchange seen on twitter today.

Genderwocky is real. You heard it here first!

I'm crying re the reply to her coffee post 🤣

Remember this whenever your bandersnatch is feeling a bit frumious.

Genderwocky is indeed real!

But that original statement makes me want to scream. We have no interest in restricting femininity. You can have that, lads! I’m happy never to wear make-up and a dress again.

This is all orchestrated 'misunderstanding' of the TERF position to allow themselves the ability to say 'oh really, I thought it was X' and do their reverse ferret without as much jeering as they might have got if they just said 'I apologise, I got it wrong'.

Some I think just don't know. They just repeat what they've been told. And they want to be the good guys. They want, so much, for us to be bad.

And I thought that only happened to me!

Ah.

Twas teatime, and the slithy terfs ...

I'm rubbish at this stuff. C'mon someone...

Oh... poo reply didn't post.

I have always wanted a momerath.

It's their sexism. Which is inherent.

They genuinely believe that femininity is unequivocally tied to being female, and cannot be something that men can be, or women may not be.

Long time the manxome foe they/them sought...

*themxome

Actual lol at go and have a poo.

Not the kind of vorpal sword we are thinking of. hahaha.

Beware the genderwock my amab.

Kathleen Stock outgrabes gender ideologist.

Yes. She's very uffish.

Feck, just realised, if your bandersnatch is frumious, you must shun it.

And while you're having a vorpal blade, have a snack

hast thou terfsplained the genderwock?

The poem is addressed to 'my son' – ie biologically male youths should not covet or pursue bandersnatches.

That feels as if it ought to be relevant to the current debate.

The so-called terf position is very much misunderstood. I think some people confuse the GC of gender-critical for gender-conforming. No, we don’t want to put people in boxes and affix pink or blue labels to them. No, we don’t centre men or the male gaze when we talk about women and women’s rights. Womanhood does not include men. It’s not gatekeeping. If a man can be a woman, then the word woman cannot be defined. It’s meaningless. Why would a man want to identify as something that doesn’t actually exist? Define patriarchy in a nutshell? It’s men ruling the roost. Pushy, aggressive males demanding that their needs take priority over women, who must serve as emotional support humans, budge up, and above all, be kind.

Womanhood is not a feeling, it’s a biological reality that cannot be identified into or out of. Feminine qualities, dress or stereotypes can be adopted by anyone regardless of their biological reality. So, men can wear makeup and heels if they wish to present in a stereotypical feminine way. Doesn’t make them women - and never will.

I long for the day that transwomen say “I’m a transwoman” instead of “I’m a woman”. Recognise that they are free to live their lives how they please, while respecting they are different to natal women. They could become allies to women, and we could be their allies too. TW with dysphoria have their own difficulties to deal with. These are not the same battles women face as a result of their sex-based reality.

Yeah the patriarchy have been trying to push that one on women for bloody years .....

This thread makes as much sense as Felix

Bandersnatch -> banned her snatch! 😡

Rev Dodgyson if you ask me.

Bandersnatch is not a feeling.

Who is Felix?
