But surely the logic of that can only be mixed sex spaces for all? Mixed sex spaces seem to be their second choice spite option - if they can’t destroy female single sex spaces by entering them then they should be destroyed so all men can.

It's like a combination of dog in manger and scorched earth.

I think she means that TRAs see it like racial segregation

That argument doesn't stand up either. Women don't want any men in their female only single sex spaces - black men, Christian men, disabled men, old men, trans identifying men... that is not discriminatory in any way.

TRAs are generally supportive of segregation as long as it’s on their terms ie by the undefined criteria of gender. It’s only a bad sort of segregation when they don’t get what they want.

If there are ever “TERF toilets” set up, you can be sure these men will be clamouring to get in them.

It would be so very interesting to be able to test this and watch the cognitive dissonance explode their tiny minds.

They don’t actually want it segregated by undefined gender though. They want it segregated by sex plus them.

Does anyone have a screenshot from x that was going around of this little exchange?

TRA: there is a special place in hell reserved for Terfs

Terf: if there is, then transwomen will be clammering to get in.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 15/02/2026 16:32

Yes, subconscious inspiration for my comment! I do remember it now.

It all feels remarkably like Donald Trump wanting a real Nobel prize, rather than the "trans" versions people have been palming him off with.

It doesn’t stand up, no. But they think it does, because they think (or they like to role play in their heads) that they are equal to the black people fighting for equal rights to white people.

Also, the situation that the judge theorised where men could be excluded from a mixed sex 'inclusive' toilet and a claim of discrimination would fail is when they instead have 'separate but equal' provision that doesn't disadvantage them.

I wonder how the KCs who represented the GLP in court feel about the misinformation about the judgment that is currently being published by the GLP?

  • Daniel Stilitz KC
  • Alex Goodman KC
  • Jane Russell KC

Happy to take the money and run. Probably don’t bother to read the judgement; why would they care?

Doesn't Jane Russell have professional investment in all of this?

I’m sure there’s a joke in there somewhere about cutting of one’s c* to spite one’s face but I’m not clever enough to land it.

I still struggle to understand how McCloud's case to the ECtHR
will gat past 'standing'
as he lives in Ireland so is in a country that has Self ID
and is totally unaffected by the FWS ruling.

It won't. He's doing it for the klout.

And all the idiots who've sent him money don't realise that, even if he's allowed to go ahead with it (which he won't be), it will take nearly a decade 😆

"Losing it" would imply that he has some of "it" left.

I beg to differ. I think the last vestiges departed years ago.

Is there anybody on Bluesky who isn't unhinged?

Some of the ones who post reports about Ukraine seem reasonably stable.

If we want to go on talking we need a new thread.

NotAtMyAge · 15/02/2026 20:23

Thanks so much @Another2Cats

I think I may reluctantly have to register in the Blue Place, so that I can like and comment.
