Brighton dance troop, Project Female, raises money for female safety alarms. Guess who gets to be in the troop and get safety alarms?

"Over 70% of women in the UK report experiencing sexual harassment in public. Globally, almost 9 in 10 women feel unsafe in public spaces. These statistics are more than numbers—they are lived realities. Almost every woman knows the feeling of walking home with keys clenched between fingers, a phone ready in hand, and eyes glancing back every few seconds."

Terrible, and true.

Followed by

"We will be inviting the people who make key decisions to come and listen to your opinions so that we can raise awareness and explore practical solutions to violence and harassment affecting young people who identify as female."

You will not be surprised to learn project female welcomes boys into their entire institution....

This piece reflects the strength of women reclaiming their spaces, confronting fear, and asserting their right to move freely

That's funny, really rich, more of the two faced hypocrisy the advocates of this batshittery suffer from and are completely oblivious to. 😤

The marketing producer doesn't look very happy - or friendly. Do people not smile for photos anymore?

But yes, anyone who identifies as female is just more sexist cobblers. Not surprised this is in Brighton.

It's Brighton, what else do you expect?

'Our vision is for Brighton to become the first place in the UK where all young people who identify as female, especially those who are absent from other forms of education and support, can find a voice through dance.'
In other words, any young person, regardless of sex. Fine. Just rename your organisation!

I've been thinking about the concept of 'inclusivity' - to include a set of people in, you automatically exclude another set of people out. Otherwise it wouldn't be that set. Potentially it has to be inclusive of the entire human race, if you can't draw a circle around a specific set of people.

If there was a support group for left-handed people to share their experiences of living in a world designed for right-handed people, it would be logical for it to be inclusive of any left-handed person, but exclusive of all right-handed people.

If it included right-handed people, it wouldn't be the same, so it would need a different name. In fact, if it was a group for left-handed people AND right-handed people, including those who identify as left-handed, it would have to be inclusive of the whole human race, wouldn't it?

'Inclusive' is related to 'enclose' and they both derive from the Latin, meaning to shut in. The idea of inclusion/exclusion is present in the word 'inclusive'.

It only becomes unfair exclusion if people who properly belong to the set are excluded because of some other characteristic, like if a group for left-handed people excluded left-handed people because of their race or their sex.

'Sorry, Marie, love you to bits... but... we've noticed you're not left-handed so this isn't the group for you' should not and would not send me into a tizzy of victimhood.

@SingleSexSpacesInSchools Just checking you have seen this Tell parents if pupils question gender at school, government says - BBC News

I had not. this is pretty seismic I think. I am looking in details right now thank you

So young teenage lesbians who don't feel they have a feminine identity (may self-describe as nonbinary or as trans-boy) who are extremely vulnerable to attack (because absolutely nobody perceives them as male) will be put off from getting one because the publicity is all about "anyone who identifies as" and they don't. That's pretty discriminatory.

Activities - how the charity spends its money
To help girls and young women (including those who identify as female), especially but not exclusively through dance classes, opportunities for performance in dance, and other such support, so as to develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals and to preserve and protect mental health and wellbeing.

Anyone familiar with my crusade in Brighton may have sympathy with me - I wanted to try and nail this charity, but the school thing has taken all my energy. I am sure it's illegal the way they run their dance classes.

Well someone should tell them you can't "identify as female", it's a biological fact, you either are or you're not. I'm not sure the blurb they're putting out is discriminatory, it's certainly a load of codswallop.

The biggest concern is especially those who are absent from other forms of education and support, - that sounds like recruitment for a cult, there's got to be Child Protection issues with this. 🤔
