The press has woken up and highlighted the damage done to women by TIMs.

The time of #bekind and #nodebate is long gone.

I don't think it did it as long ago as five years, though. More like five months.

It’s actually the opposite. Most mentions in the press were negative.

The press have completely manufactured this debate.

With all respect, that is utter bollocks.

Yes, that was what I thought. I have reached the point of no respect at all for inaccurate bullshit. me.

They woke up and decided to write 17,000 articles in 5 years. 9 per day. Is that reasonable for 0.5% of the population?

Of all the things that never happened, that never happened the most.

It's an Amnesty report that's been seized on by pinknesses.

murasaki · 09/07/2026 21:53

To go back to your question about what's so bad about sharing with transwomen, I answered it.

Will you tell me what's so bad about women having their own spaces away from men and transwomen (so all men)please?

Ah, Amnesty. Not remotely known for their abuse of women and girls. That Amnesty?

Tbf, it was also referenced on QueerAF, so it must be true

The poster ‘girls’ (Isla Bryson, Katie Dolakowski, Karen White, Andrew Miller, Tiffany Scott, Sarah Jane Baker … the list goes on) have done a sterling job, haven’t they?

murasaki · 09/07/2026 21:59

I just don't believe in 9 articles per day. They didn't even try to make it convincing.

How about researching it for yourself then? Instead of just ignorantly claiming it’s not true.

How about reading what i said? I said I didn't believe it, I didn't say it wasn't necessarily true, of course i will look for sources on that, as I don't find you a reliable source as you're not even a reliable source on your own sex and behaviour. But either way, I do believe that a lot of that will be reporting on crimes (good, they shouldn't have been hidden) and the lunacy re Bryson will be a lot of that. Suspiciously round number though.

murasaki · 09/07/2026 22:16

And will you answer my question please?

Quite. As women's right are being reclaimed, legal cases heard and many TIMs held to account for their appalling behaviour it's not surprise that the media is reporting what's going on. Amnesty simply doesn't like it and are presenting it as anti trans rather than pro women - which given their contempt for women and girls is to be expected.

murasaki · 09/07/2026 22:28

If they've counted descriptions of Bryson's offences and the court case as anti trans, then their methodology is suspect at best.

SirChenjins · 09/07/2026 22:33

It would certainly be interesting to see their criteria!

I did almost just put 'bollocks' in the biggliest letters I could manage.

The female socialisation got the better of me.

I won't let it happen again.

He doesn't answer questions.
He has form for ignoring, deflecting, or implying that you're stupid.

No-one is asking you to - you weren't asked a question, nothing was required of you.
