Let women speak-Dublin Sept 16th

[KnittingDiva]

Anyone else on here planning to attend this?

Why the fuck would I bother?

I doubt you'll find many women here supporting the fascist TRAs opposing todays LWS event so not sure what you are going on about.

@Farmageddon well at least you're honest ❤️

Go to any college or Uni campus in 2023 and you will find the students are overwhelmingly in support of gay and trans rights, and any "TERFs" are in the minority.

So? Please stop using misogynistic slurs for women you disapprove of.

I love that the worst ad hom these people can come up with is that we are old.

Yes

Twas a good crowd, much bigger than I was expecting

Looks great!

The people at the march today obviously. Presumably those who attend the march are in support of its aims - that's universally how demonstrations work.

The proof is that the same people attend fascist events and bother librarians and immigrants.

Maybe the reason it's a tired old arguments shows you've been playing with fascists for too long 😃

Someone's not up to date with anti-terf rhetoric, at these events all terfs are called fascist.

You either have no idea what you're talking about, are quite dim, or are in bad faith.

This is why women here are struggling to muster the energy to engage.

“Feminism is a political practice of fighting male supremacy on behalf of women as a class, including all the women you don't like, including all the women you don't want to be around, including all the women who used to be your best friends whom you don't want anything to do with anymore. It doesn't matter who the individual women are" Andrea Dworkin

I suspect the ageist visitor knows little about feminism.

I'm going to make a guess that the poster is Irish and guys is a totally acceptable turn of phrase here when talking to groups of people.

I was targeted long ago, 2012 maybe, for attending a march for women's reproductive rights in Dublin by these fascist scumbags. It was quite frightening at the time.

Sad to see you so called feminists standing shoulder to shoulder with them today. That's all I was saying.

They never will!

So why aren't you haranguing them? You have problems with some Irish group, it seems, yet your first action is to jump on a feminist board and insult us all?

These individuals are literally dreading getting older. Either that they'll look back on their younger selves with maximum levels of cringe. Or that a new movement will come along to abuse them, simply for being older.

"Hope I die before I get old".

The great thing is that these older women, and a host of younger women waking up to this toxicity, and critically, Gen Alpha who are jettisoning this TRA movement for the conservative narrow non hip retrogradeness that it is, are all together a formidable resistance to the immature fantasies being played out in civic societies.

These TRAs will be isolated by the older women representing the world and physical reality as it is, women of their age who are being peaked in their multitudes, and the youngsters coming thru who just puke at all this.

This thread is probably like the march today. Full of Brits sticking their oar in at an Irish event.

I'm right here. I'm not the cats mother. Don't be rude.

You do realise that this thread is about an event held in Dublin today?

This thread is probably like the march today. Full of Brits sticking their oar in at an Irish event.

A bit like men who stick their oar in at women's events?

You're the one invading a feminist board and harassing and insulting us! If anyone is sticking an oar in it's you!

They cannae, their bum's oot the windae.

Invading? Or having an opinion? Is that not allowed now?

😂

None of the women here are the 'fascists' you are angry with. Why aren't you away getting aggressive with them?

We didn't organise the event, you'll have to take it up with Kellie-Jay.
