JK Rowling has sadly opened her mouth again

How the metro can put out this tweet which effectively suggests a woman shouldn't be allowed to speak is beyond me. Shocked but not surprised. Comments are heartening though, as is the ratio.

Schrödinger’s GRC

As the general public, facility managers, property owners, etc. are not allowed to ask to see a GRC, I think the onus is on the person purporting to have one to prove it.

Until then, we have to assume they do not have one.

IW tried to show IW's passport on live tv a few years ago and had to be told by the presenter that it was a very foolish risk to publicly display information that could then be stolen.

I'm certain that if IW had a GRC, IW would be trying to wave that in people's faces too.

duc748 · 06/03/2024 11:46

Surely it just highlights what a fuck-witted concept the GRC is/was in the first place.

NonPlayerCharacter · 06/03/2024 11:49

Why would you show your passport and not your GRC? The passport is a much more sensitive document.

Because a passport looks terribly official, but can be changed by just writing a letter. [Edit] And because most people don't know that second part.

Person who ‘jokes’ about abducting women in a van is now virtue signalling by Tweeting about a woman that was abducted and murdered?

IW does this a lot.

Publicly declared a hatred of drag queens
Got slated
Became friends with drag queens, had photos taken, plastered it over twitter, claims to love drag queens

Publicly supported Trump
Suggested copying Trump's wall to keep migrants out by putting barbed wire in English channel
Got slated
Started virtue signalling with hundreds of tweets supporting migrants and slagging off Trump

Publicly called a woman 'blackwoman' who would be nowhere without 'woke'
Got slated
Claimed to have not meant it like that and started the virtue signalling tweets supporting black women

The daily misogyny, calling women hags, bags, dried up, frumpy, ugly, witches, men, etc.

Gets slated
Lots of tweets about how this only applies to some women.
Lots of virtue signalling fawning over women who IW agrees with

IW has certainly not proved to be on the right side of history 😂

But it doesn't stop there. IW continues with the racism, claiming that because black women are seen as women, men should be too, etc.

The homophobia, posting that gay men and women are not doing what their natural bodies were meant to do, etc. That butch women are secretly transmen but too afraid to transition.

Every time any minority group is in the media for anything, tweets about trans people being in the same situation, even when they're not. Every time - 'what if this was said about trans people', completely ignoring the group that are actually affected. Me, me, me

Calling every women's group 'anti-trans'. Hell, even calling women's rights a cover for 'anti-trans'.

The ageism. Oh god, the endless ageism. I wonder if IW realises age is also one of the protected characteristics of the EA.

This would all come in court.

And yet IW continues to claim victim status.

Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in for me!

The "celebrity" big brother behaviour was so very, erm, male imo.

IcakethereforeIam · 06/03/2024 13:11

There's a thread at the moment 'what screams frumpy'. It's rather long now but if I'd caught it early I'd definitely have posted IW 😄

The other BB clip is where IW tried to coerce American R&B singer Genuwine into kissing IW, when Genuwine had already said he didn't want to. Does anyone remember that?

The irony is that IW was behaving exactly like the men whose behaviour sparked the Me Too movement in the first place.

So there it is, not a woman hitting on a man , not a “transgender” hitting on a straight man, but a man doing what we all know many men do when they see something they want ………..

On Windy's self pitying, tremendously un self-aware whine about never having seen such an awful pile on and bigotry, does them never look at they's own Twitter page?

I'd bet my house that India doesn't have a GRC, unless they posted a pic.

India is becoming more and more unhinged. They've fucked their credibility so can now only rely on notoriety.

And if the likes of the Metro or the Independent are going to platform India, then bring it on. India is a one person terfing machine.

The bitterness and resentment is so palpable, they can't help it oozing from every pore. I imagine the blaze of glory accompanying India's transition has turned to despair that it didn't supply what India had anticipated.

A lot of, in old money, gay male transitioners, seem to be under the impressioni that transitioning physically will supply them with straight men partners.

India's antics on BB would suggest that India genuinely thought straight men were an option.

If that was the reason for transition, knowing it was all for nothing has to be something of a blow.

And knowing that women are the only ones who do attract the straight men presumably accounts for the off the scale hatred.

Could be. I know lots of straight men and none of them would ever date a man who identifies themselves as a woman. The men I know still 'see them as men under all the dress up. Gay men fancy men. Maybe there is a class of men who like alternatives who knows, not come across them personally., fellow trans identified perhaps 🙄

Spot on. Why should a man date a trans identified 'woman' if he doesn't want to. He has the right as a straight man to date a biological woman if he wants to. A woman is more than dress up.

WallaceinAnderland · 06/03/2024 15:59

I'd have put it on the other thread but I suspect that one will be taken down.

It can go in both. Excellent article. I saw the video clip with the senator. Storm in a tea cup 🙄

In the past, a black woman in the US might have expected severe social blowback if she failed to refer to a white man as ‘sir’ – now she suffers the same if she does refer to a white man as ‘sir’ where that white man fantasises that he’s a lady. In both cases, the man’s need for validation – whether of his social superiority or his gender identity – trumps the little woman’s right to speak

Yup. That about covers it. Same shit, different lipstick.

And yes, it is still all about the man requiring his social superiority to be saluted by his perceived inferior.

How far we came only to be forced right back there again.

There's even a 'cross dressing' route to change passports.

Well, Willoughby has just reported Joanne Rowling to the police for a hate crime.

Helleofabore · 06/03/2024 23:07

And in this run down on what Willoughby has done to be recognised as 'female', no mention of a GRC.

Aware as I am that it's an offence to lie to law enforcement, I'll simply have to explain to the police that, in my view, India is a classic example of the male narcissist who lives in a state of perpetual rage that he can't compel women to take him at his own valuation. 5/5

Helleofabore · 06/03/2024 23:34

I am very much looking forward to this court case. Because this would really be a test of that 'hate crime' law that seems to include misgendering.

And if she takes Willoughby to court for harassment and wins, that will also set a precedence that will be very useful.
