The Tomboy Project

[Elisheva]

Has anyone come across The Tomboy Project? https://www.tomboyproject.com

It’s a new project and recently seems to be really taking off. I love the fact that it’s a young woman reaching out to other young women, offering them an alternative to the current narrative.

Are you simply promoting your own website? I notice that the link has a direct request for donations. And are you a US site?

I think it’s a great initiative and wish them luck.

I've seen some of her Facebook reels, which are basically her dressed in shorts and a t-shirt, with short hair and a cap, showing off not looking feminine and encouraging girls and young women to celebrate being tomboys, not trans. She does a good job with them. But she also talks about being on the right and laughs at the left, so you could say that she's encouraging division. I wonder whether she knows that in the UK it's mainly women on the left of politics who are fighting against children and young people being transed.

'But she also talks about being on the right and laughs at the left'

Politicising it seems redundant to me. You're just going to alienate potential sign ups who don't agree with your politics.

She probably does assume that gender critical women in the UK are on the right. I've not seen much traction from the left in the US on this issue.

Should've done some research.
