Outrage as trans woman picked by UN to be 'UK champion' for women's rights (msn.com)

"I will use this role to further advocate for the progress, safety, inclusion and empowerment of all women and girls, of all communities and identities.
"I will continue to draw attention to the systemic and social impact of misogyny, transphobia and gender-based inequality within the UK — in order to help provide data and insight that contributes to forming tangible methods of tracking and countering it." (Munroe Bergdorf)

Really?
How's that going to work then, when you don't like women talking about their own fucking bodies and call it crap like "gatekeeping" and "biological essentialism" etc.

Also quoted as saying anyone can be a woman.

How are you going to fight for their rights if you can't IDENTIFY what they are and anyone can be one?

Actually, they should just identify their way out of oppression and inequality, shouldn't they?
After all, it's that easy apparently.

Ah, bergdorf has done a drive by. Hi, you charlatan.

I want to believe some trans people are nice. But even the ones who get chosen by respectable public institutions to represent them tend to be complete twats.

This is a work of art that deserves its own thread

That was good. Even cathartic.

@IcakethereforeIam thanks so much for sharing the piece. It's very much appreciated.

You're welcome 😊

Just wish I could remember to use the correct number of 't's. I need to drop one.

Article by Scottish journalist Madeline Kearns in The National Review about Bergdorf’s new UN Women role:

Women’s Rights in Name Only
'…Not only is Munroe Bergdorf going to be unhelpful in advancing these causes, but he actively undermines them. Indeed, he is a champion of one of the greatest affronts to women’s rights in the Western world: the denial of sex-based rights and protections.'
