Some of the good news stories from the gender beat this week. Enjoy. Lia Is Still Peaking The World Sonia O’Sullivan, former medal-winning track and field athlete, spoke out about trans-identified males competing in female sports in The Irish Times.
Another bit of good news...."The Danish government states there are only two sexes. Men and women." They acknowledge that an individual may "feel" they are not the sex they are born, but the Gov also says that is not a basis on which to create laws/policies.
Oh I hope so, Ellen. I think this may start a trend across Europe. USA & Canada, I'm afraid, are wading in koolaid. Their salvation may take a little longer!
I'm surprised, pleasantly so, as the Danish government is under the thumb of the U.S. It's the locale from which we spy on all of you, our vassal states!
Thank you for this, Felicity, it's all over Twitter now, as you know...and I've sent it to some of the leading groups working to help women and children in this war against us by Transworld.
You're absolutely right. It's depressing (though inevitable) that women's rights, dignity & safety didn't seem important enough to move the general populace. But sport...
I was locked out of twitter for 12 hours yesterday saying Lia Thomas was a man. Not sure whether it was a report or an algorithm but it's only a matter of time before a ban with thus madness.
Milli Hill had her account locked for 12 hours for simply referring to 'a situation like Lia Thomas'. (Story in next week's War on Women.) Seems Twitter are very jittery about Mr T.
I read at least 20 accounts having their hand slapped, over Thomas. Silencing tactics, ramped up, similarly Levine, they realise it’s becoming too mainstream. Personally I think they’re too late. More people are becoming aware, nonTwitter.
It’s about bloody time they started speaking out . Live and let live but fuck off with blatant cheating getting rammed down our throats and not being allowed to speak about it . Poor poor WOMEN who have lost jobs and livelihoods due to cowards in authority being shit scared to stand up to the vocal minority of freaks and pervs
I'm curious about where Thomas will get a job now. Will a bunch of couldn't-care men and brain-dead libfems give him a 'hero's' welcome somewhere, or will he be too hot to handle?
He's looking to go into Law, apparently. Personally I reckon he will just quietly revert to his original or middle male name, and go about his blokeish business. According to some of the girls on the Pens team, he STILL went to the male only after-meet dinners!
Thanks again Graham for highlighting all the insanity. Still far too many women staying completely silent. I don't know what will eventually make them step out of line and stand up against the Erasure of Women and Join the Fight to Protect Children. I keep posting on Facebook, emailing friends who are not on Facebook and writing to MSPs etc.
Lia really is peaking the world, because my Dad mentioned it to me today out of the blue. My over 70 Dad who would be the last person I would have expected to hear anything about it. He asked me what I thought about "that swimming bloke saying he's a lady" and now the British cycling team. So I told him, and he completely agreed, plus with all the issues around men IDing into women's safe spaces and people not daring to speak out about it. "If you've got a dick you're a man!" So I do think that it's not necessarily that people care more about sport than women's safety (or at least not just that), but that sport gets a lot of publicity and news coverage, and when people see such a blatant unfairness, it gets them questioning and looking at everything else, which can only be a good thing.
He doesn't have to exert himself much in the pool these days so I expect he's gaining a little weight. Rather like our old friend Veronica Ivy/Rachel McKinnon on his bike.
I find Sonia O'Sullivan's article confusing as she talks of female transgender athletes. To me, that means F2M (transmen) but in fact she's talking about M2F (transwomen). It's highly offensive me that males are being allowed to call themselves female, let alone get everyone else doing it. We no longer have the language to talk about ourselves.
My neighbour stopped me today and was concerned for you Graham, after watching Nolan. Rightly so given what you have been through. But I told him you interviewed Elaine Miller today and were back on grand form. So hes away to watch it.
This is great news.Posie Parker did say that Lia Thomas is a gift. Looks like she was right 👍👏. As someone who's never been sporty at all ,I loved watching the Olympics and I was rather dreading having to see men
competing against women.( Laurel Hubbard was bad enough !), so hopefully common sense will prevail by the next games.Maybe British Cycling will peak a lot more people as well.Thanks , JL.Well done.👏👍💗
LOVE the cat!

First country to return to common sense.

Excellent! One of my best mates is Danish. I'll definitely buy him a pint when next we meet! 😉
JL, do you think this could mean the end of GRAs and GRCs in countries where they too return to truth and sanity? I hope so, oh, I do hope so!

Thank you. Quite a splash around the cheating swimmer.
And to the women of Scotland, well done!!!
Sports was always going to peak alot of people. South Park writers had it down.

Matt and Trey were slated for that episode but I thought it was actually pretty on the money

Kellie-Jay peeled scales away from many eyes, Twitter fighting to claw back, in the only way they know.

Spring seems an appropriate time for the tide to start turning.
Thank you - needed to see all this good news 😊
You're welcome! Hope it raises a smile. 😊

Is it just me or is Will getting a double chin?
Well if it’s big enough it will hide his Adam’s apple.
🤣
Triple lol :) And normally I have quite a thing for Adam's apples! THIS CHEATING FUCK HAS RUINED ADAM'S APPLES FOR ME
Double lol

If he's really taking wrong-sex hormones, that'll do it!
Lol
"Love handles"
