Just some of the good news stories from the gender beat this week… Enjoy! For The Reading List A vital new book aimed at the parents of gender-confused children is due out in October. ‘When Kids Say They’re Trans’ is written by Stella O’Malley, Lisa Marchiano and Sasha Ayad
Great news about the independent MP in Ireland and his unequivocal stance. It takes just a few determined, courageous people in positions of power to say 'No'. Let's all keep saying 'No'. Unequivocally, just like KJK does. I'm listening to her discussion with Jordan Peterson at the moment.
The men are waking up. I forgive them for being late to TERF Island. They’ve been hoodwinked and misled by the Trans hyperbole but the fight back is gaining traction. Thanks JL, we owe you, and all the other brave souls who stuck their heads above the parapet and took the blows for the rest of us Adult Human Females. Long way to go but there is light at the end of the tunnel? I’m hopeful in a way that I have not been for quite a while.
I agree, and men need pointers on the crossdressers, as they often see "breasts" at a glance and don't notice the large shoulders, big hands & feet, Adam's apple, as well as the movement "tells" for determining if this is a man in lipstick and a dress. Here's my little infomercial on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vF3Epdesl0&t=1s
Let's not let the Beardsplainers off the hook so easily though, as they attempt to re-fold away their misogyny unnoticed. They've been enjoying shouting at feminists a little too much.
Misogyny like a deckchair or ironing board haha. I believe it leaves a detectable shadow of an absence to the attuned and we nagging hags can pick up an instance of it having occurred in the vicinity. Poor men, I wonder if they can still beardsplain if the beard is shaved off. Is beardsplaining more of a state of mind. The trials they must survive. I try not to judge anyone by their hirsutism but I just noticed another round of this happening this week. And I wasn't in a nice part of London. You really might be on to something you know - my young male relative was being very perceptive and enlightened and revealed he'd had a full on mustachioed beard confection til just last week ;-)
I do too... but I still have to ask why many of them dismissed the valid concerns of women so readily. I know it's basically all the things outlined in "Hags" and the same things that lead to mansplaining etc. Isn't it ironic though, that these men were on the one hand embracing "gender is just a feeling" but at the same time applying social stereotypes to one sex?
No fears Susan..there’s plenty of biological males out here subscribing with daughters & grandchildren who need protecting just waiting for the moment these perverse f*kers over reach & meet their match..in the meantime,keep doing what you’re doing..
You can watch his video on Twitter but likely on YouTube too.
I'm also a fan now. It has to be said, plenty of black men are protesting trans ideology and the great thing is, they can't be accused of the usual battery of 'isms' and 'phobes'
The answer - men not women make the adjustment to accommodate men who say they are women in their facilities and sports - was there all along but few in power could see it through the thick haze of sexist sympathy for the feelings of entitled, radically sexist men who presume to know what a woman is and who get off on imposing themselves on women and girls and telling all who don't want them in our spaces and lives to shut up and die in a ditch. Hopefully this timeless cultural reflex of having more sympathy for and trust in men than women will be weakened forever more after this. This GNS gives me tentative hope. Thank you.
i agree completely. I would stand up for any man using male facilities regardless of how he identifies. Its only a problem if his stance jeopardises equality.
some great news, thanks JL, weird how badminton england aren’t bothered about the semi-pro and grass roots game. Given thats where all pros start off and isnt fair competition great at all levels. Oh well. Its start. Don’t see why amateurs should have to play second fiddle to men. unless they think women’s sport is just some sort of ‘hang out’ for the girls and not that important. not good enough sporty people, f-ing sort it out. they are n’t readinf this but i’ll pretend they are. If they are, stop siding with biological men. it’s embarrassing.
It is silly isn't it. Have a rule then break it immediately for what reason. It appears many elite sports think elite sportspeople spring freshly elite from the womb. The anger that this creates in feeder streams to that 'elite sport' is widespread. Going from a small child, through all the training and hours dedicated to getting to the elite level and often only with the support of family and clubs seems something many manage to totally forget.
Latest I’ve heard Graham is going legal , as well he should , I’ll help crowdfund , the fringe is on its way out , what a shame ,used to be great , if you didn’t like someone’s show you didny go , you didn’t shout your big gob off and get it cancelled
I’m editing , you didn’t shout your big trans gob off and get it cancelled
The amount of time taken, effort expended and stress these venue cancellings cause and it's been happening for years. I wonder if insurers are now featuring this specific TRA disruption in contracts. The insurance industry often seems to have the best and very detailed knowledge and current analysis of risks. TRAs have been playing on the ability of owners and venues to fold, with the help of their younger staff, then there's this usual backtracking. It is TRA intimidation and violence and them putting others, their targets, at risk which is very clearly evidenced, yet some are still under the delusion they are the ones subject to this terrorism, not perpetrating it. It's economic damage with the threat of a lot more and personal injury if they are not complied with.
It's hard to believe the venue believed they were supporting gay people in any community in doing this. Something somewhere again makes no sense.
Thanks JL - always a good tonic after the WoW update. I have to say that I am quite jaded though - just look at the amazing spinning Kier Starmer who has done yet another 180 turn on his views as he panders to a Scottish audience. I trust actions not words, and promises and proposals are just words until they are enacted. I do like more people speaking up - nice one Ne Yo and Senator Craughwell.
Brilliant that the nutters at Edinburgh are being r exposed. You would think that after the Joanna Cherry episode “ lessons may have been learned”? But no. The zealots are showing their narrow minded bigoted unkind intolerant looniness for all to see. Bring it on.
Sorry to put a damper on some really positive news stories(thanks as ever JL), but Labour cannot be trusted and we must prepare ourselves for continuing battles ahead.
That man will say anything to pander to an audience and gather votes. It is clear that his integrity is even low for a politician and he cannot be trusted. Who knows what the f*** he would do should he ever be given the power he craves so much. I do not think it would be good for women or children though.
I’m seriously worried about the DM these days , someone somewhere must be handing out spines for free , I normally read it for the shits and giggles , and also since the Scottish sun stopped allowing comments , they were always a laff
Thank you CB that’s very sweet and kind of you . The end was relatively quick which was a blessing really as it was hard to watch this vibrant and funny man fall to dementia , thanks again
“Comedy event featuring Graham Linehan cancelled after complaints
Leith Arches said Thursday’s comedy event has been axed because it ‘does not align with our overall values’.
Graham Linehan has been cancelled after complaints were made to the venue.
An Edinburgh venue has axed the Comedy Unleashed event featuring Linehan, a vocal critic of aspects of the trans rights movement, which was due to take place on Thursday.”
Yes indeed, step out of line with the new and insane catechism about an utterly contrived new “community” of oxymoronic phantom beings, and you will find yourself under attack from various mysterious “voices of the people” and your means of livelihood will be gone.
I really, really want to throw dictionaries at them. The small, light, pocket ones will do. I'm sad about Edinburgh and this is so many illiberal arts venues. I'm put off from going again (for a few reasons) as it's more and more a corporate excuse for something. Those pissy little children acting as if a teacher told them off so they had to say sorry but had their fingers crossed behind their backs so it didn't count. Then they get back at you another way. Literal deplatforming from the wokerati. Surely a venue who does put this on would get a good audience and for Joanna Cherry too? What's happening here? I bet those freaking out over the public order bill and rights to protest are the authoritarian ones doing this without a hint of irony.
The light pocket dictionarys may do, but only if I have many of them to keep up the bombardment! Personally I'd prefer a weightier tome! :D They are exactly like you describe. I would be willing to bet that many of them have never heard the word "no" as kids and are now outraged that they are hearing it for the first time!
What values do they have? Agree with my views that men can be women and women can have penises.. agree with my lies, because those are my values. Otherwise, you’ll be cancelled! Lies above truth every time!
Great news about the independent MP in Ireland and his unequivocal stance. It takes just a few determined, courageous people in positions of power to say 'No'. Let's all keep saying 'No'. Unequivocally, just like KJK does. I'm listening to her discussion with Jordan Peterson at the moment.
Yes, it's refreshing to hear a politician say "I was wrong".
Don’t you just love it when TRAs make grovelling apologies?!
The men are waking up. I forgive them for being late to TERF Island. They’ve been hoodwinked and misled by the Trans hyperbole but the fight back is gaining traction.

Ha yes, like beach chairs. You never know when they're going to decide to take another holiday from feminist allyship, unfold sit and shout some more.
I do too... but I still have to ask why many of them dismissed the valid concerns of women so readily.

Don’t know who Ne-Yo is but suddenly I’m a big fan.
You can watch his video on Twitter but likely on YouTube too.
I'm also a fan now. It has to be said, plenty of black men are protesting trans ideology and the great thing is, they can't be accused of the usual battery of 'isms' and 'phobes'
But they’re still accused of that! The trans cult never sleeps!

Thank you for those news. Good to see more pushback.
Good news about toilets, Eddie Izzard will have to use the urinals, as he should.
Thanks as ever, JL, always a great relief to get the GNS.
There is a consultation on the single sex loos issue which can be found here:
https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/toilet-provision-in-buildings-other-than-dwellings-technical-consultation
Deadline for submissions is 08 October.
As an occasional badminton player very pleased to see the news but they need to apply it to all badminton not just elite level
And as an Irish citizen well done Senator Craughwell
Dusty

Sorry to hear the Edinburgh Festival venue has cancelled your show, Graham. Bastards. Free speech is not alive and well in Scotland.
Latest I’ve heard Graham is going legal , as well he should , I’ll help crowdfund , the fringe is on its way out , what a shame ,used to be great , if you didn’t like someone’s show you didny go , you didn’t shout your big gob off and get it cancelled
I’m editing , you didn’t shout your big trans gob off and get it cancelled
A new venue has been arranged. Emails to be sent to ticket holders letting them know where it is.

Couldnt agree more.
More good news though… our adult human females are in the football final 🎉👏
It's fab news! :)
I’m seriously worried about the DM these days , someone somewhere must be handing out spines for free , I normally read it for the shits and giggles , and also since the Scottish sun stopped allowing comments , they were always a laff
😆it’s a weird feeling having to get news from the Mail but they’ve actually been very good on gender ideology.
I replied , it was double posted so I deleted one and both were deleted 🤷♀️
I was very surprised it was posted in the mail , as they’re left wing fuckers
The UK Daily Mail?? Very RIGHT wing...
hi Petal, i hope you and your family are ok, and coping as well as one can when the family loses someone. love CB
Thank you CB that’s very sweet and kind of you . The end was relatively quick which was a blessing really as it was hard to watch this vibrant and funny man fall to dementia , thanks again
bless you all Petal.
Thank you for the good news stories. Warms the heart and gives us hope.
We definitely need hope !
"Shuttles Cocks" earned you a Like all by itself. Well done.

The new Mccarthyism from The Evening Standard:
“Comedy event featuring Graham Linehan cancelled after complaints
Leith Arches said Thursday’s comedy event has been axed because it ‘does not align with our overall values’.
Graham Linehan has been cancelled after complaints were made to the venue.
An Edinburgh venue has axed the Comedy Unleashed event featuring Linehan, a vocal critic of aspects of the trans rights movement, which was due to take place on Thursday.”
Yes indeed, step out of line with the new and insane catechism about an utterly contrived new “community” of oxymoronic phantom beings, and you will find yourself under attack from various mysterious “voices of the people” and your means of livelihood will be gone.
I especially liked the bit where they stated they were inclusive while literally excluding someone because their "values" do not align with theirs.
I really, really want to throw dictionaries at them. The small, light, pocket ones will do. I'm sad about Edinburgh and this is so many illiberal arts venues.

Petal she cared enough about Marion Millar to represent her at some emotional cost to herself.
What values do they have? Agree with my views that men can be women and women can have penises.. agree with my lies, because those are my values. Otherwise, you’ll be cancelled! Lies above truth every time!
Thank you JL! I see your wonderful snow bubble and raise you a leaf sheep
