A THREAD TO RECORD ALL THE APOLOGIES TO GC WOMEN SINCE THE SUPREME COURT RULING

[MarieDeGournay]

Don't all rush at once!🙄

I'm really hoping the Sandie Peggie trial will become a Post Office scandal style hit TV show.

Perfect. Sandie Peggie’s tribunal has taught us that we should record our own evidence. Make sure to record all the abusive screenshots and send to HR. If HR do t start a disciplinary on this person plus re-education then you can take them to ET. I’ll support your gardening fund

Me too.

Hear hear!

Janice Turner on form. I have the Billy Joel song going round in my head. David Lammy, Theresa May, Red Ang, Maria’s way…

Let’s not downplay this triumph for women

Great article by Janice, as per usual.

Did Ruth Hunt really say “men will always rape women”?!?

Oh dear 😅

What would that consultation have looked like?

Supreme Court - We need to rule whether we believe that ‘sex’ as stated in the EA 2010, is of the immutable kind or based on how people ‘feel’. What say you?

Seriously?

I didn’t note any women’s groups being consulted during the first and second readings of the GRC that caused this shit show on sex being all about nebulous gender feelz (reading are available to peruse online)

What would that have achieved exactly? A bunch of TW, (because it’s never TM is it?) would say ‘look at me, it’s obvious to anyone that I’m a woman, and it’ll be VERY transphobic of you if you say otherwise, and then we’ll have to stand outside throwing bottles of our own piss at passing women and waving handmade signs saying TW ARE women’. It would achieve nothing.

It’s a fact based thread, you got any facts for us?

That's some serious misandry if Hunt did say that. Men can choose not to rape and abuse. The whole of feminism is predicated on their ability to choose not to rape and abuse. If they couldn't make that choice, there'd be no point in fighting for women and girls to be free from male violence.

Fuck you John Oliver.

I dispute that last sentence. I think a "Pissed Off Tr*nnies" piss protest outside the SC, witnessed by the judges, would have achieved a lot. It wouldn't have achieved what the protestors wanted to achieve, but it would have achieved a lot. An own goal is still a goal.

Me three

This is what Janice quotes her as saying. I’m sure Janice did her research.

Yes she did, it was whilst she was still at Stonewall so it's a while ago. I can't remember the exact context but I'm sure someone has kept the receipts.

I don't think there will ever be an apology. It's not over, the trans activists are still claiming they need clarification as if their vile misogyny has been motivated by confusion.

Brilliantly concise and justifiably angry Janice Turner article.

It’s from here:

www.theguardian.com/society/2019/may/19/ruth-hunt-stonewall-moral-responsibility-fight-trans-people

The response or lack-of reinforces what we already know.

I don't know. One could.characterise the whole.point of anti discrimination legislation as a giant 'be kind' exercise.

It's just that the SC somehow miraculously decided that women are worthy of kindness, too.

This has caused much outrage and gnashing of teeth.

Much gnashing indeed. On another thread some person has said that trans people feel like they have been raped with this judgement.

I was less polite (or kind) than I usually am.

Vibe.

And our taxpayer's money - no one asked women whether they wanted their taxes to be used against them, or local authorities to refuse to use our local taxes to support women's badly needed services.

I suspect because there was something about these women that they just, I don't know, preferred, to other women. The annoying ones who kept having to be burned as witches because they just never stopped bloody yapping, and the ones that kept boring on about the vote, and the really annoying ones that kept striking for equal pay. These ones were just, I don't know... more...male somehow. Even though they were women. They couldn't quite put their fingers on why. So they just gave them everything they wanted, just on their say so. Because they were somehow better.

They couldn’t have chosen a less appropriate word, could they?
