Raising money for the kimono-clad fox-killer's "Good" Law Project.

Definitely one to avoid!

😂

No-one has mentioned star attraction Jolyon HitFox, did he not appear?

3/4s full

You know it was on seat filler websites, right? Still, I’m sure the “got given a ticket” attendees enjoyed the evening as much as the “I’m not like the other feminists” transmaids.

Exactly, if we can't always tell how does anyone have the slightest clue if a 'woman' is a woman or not?

If a genderist plops onto a thread and doesn't tell us they aren't going to engage with any responses are they really a genderist?

I'm genuinely glad you had a good night. I hope you feel better soon.

The audience was largely cis women

I'm always taken aback by statements like this. Trans people tell us over and over that you can't tell someone's gender (or sex) by looking and yet clearly this person either thinks they know better or that it's not true.

So I've learned that it is actually ok to claim you know what someone's gender and sex are. Or that that poster is a fake ally who dismisses what trans people say.

OR that poster personally knows every member of the audience. Possible, I suppose, certainly going from the photos posted.

As is so often the case, the rules are flexible depending on the person. In-group people are allowed to break the rules as they see fit. They are the chosen onea on the right aide of history. Those of us with blackened evil souls will always be wrong even when we do as we're told. The rules are abritrary, a tool to control and manipulate. Its actually better for controllers when they dont make sense.

Anyway, assuming at least some of that is true among all the "guessing" and "imagining", thanks for reporting back!

I'm not a bigot for believing sex is real and sometimes it matters, and I believe it's sexism that ultimately causes someone to repeatedly lie about that fact. But they will never take the time to examine their prejudices - just like their favourite Tommy Robinson et al.

Rather angry considering you say it was a success. Did it end after your bedtime?

If you can tell someone is cis rather than trans then why don't you believe us when we tell you that tw do not pass 🤔

@SJaneS How is Feminism hijacked by centering women? Surely that what Feminism is. The thing you want that puts people who aren't female at its centre that's Peopleism or Masculism.

This is a lovely moment JoMo dancing

😂

Bouncy and awkward (JoMo's dancing that is)

You couldn't pay me to post that video publicly.

My eyeeeeeeesssss

This thread badly needs the laugh react

That video is really something. Words (and emojis) fail me.

Amusing myself by randomly hitting pause & screenshotting the result 😁

Evil! This is nearly as bad as the infamous Terry Wogan in his tight trousers photo that used to do the rounds on the old BBC boards.

Why only 'a small proportion of trans folk'? You'd think they'd be out in force, a night all about them, showing up, making a statement, proclaiming their rights, that kind of thing...

Maybe the fact that they were such a small proportion of the audience is because there are such a tiny proportion of the population.

They are so noisy and unreasonable and occasionally violent that it's sometimes easy to forget just how few trans people there are.

Dad dancing at its creepiest!

"the evidence is growing"
Surely that's how he should be judged on his hypno tits treatment?
Although I no more expect the Scientific Method than the Spanish Inquisition where Zack is concerned.

Is it just me who reads Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Beth Ditto and thinks it's short for Beth Ellis-Bextor?

All on the same (small) guestlist!
