All those years we kept hoping and saying “The tide is turning” and now it really is. So much damage done and still much to fight, but finally there’s a proper awakening (insert woke puns here) .

I really do think the pendulum is swinging back.

I hate to gloat but I always knew the only reason they were getting away with shit was because of the populace's ignorance. I was late to the car crash and was fart-faced by what I was hearing and seeing. I look back to 2018 and I have no idea how I was so clueless up until my Road to Damascus moment ... but I was 😕

And I know there are millions of blue collar straight men just like me who are STILL in the dark.

You're absolutely right, Tony. SO many people, male & female, with collars of all hues, haven't a clue what has been going on. But I think that was deliberate (remember the Dentons document?) so that nobody had a chance to oppose the new ideology before it was in place! But eyes are opening all over the shop now.

(Also, 'fart-faced', love it!)

I can’t tell you how much more I prefer to read the “Good News” edition of the War on Women. It gives me hope.

Me too!

It is quite naughty to preface every mention of fox-clubbing Jolyon Maugham, with fox-clubbing but makes me laugh.

😂 Must admit, I usually describe him as 'vulpine averse' but managed to restrain myself with this item!

Simon Fanshawe's article in, of all places, the Daily Mail, is rather good. Great to see Robert Wintemute joining the LGB Alliance.

Yes, brilliant news!

Hurrah! One of the organisations I wrote to replied to me today saying that its membership of SW's scheme is "under review". Let's hope it comes to the right decision.

Oh that's great news!

More great news. Police services to have legal action taken against them if they don't ditch Stonewall as membership of and misdirection by Stonewall inarguably means they can't do their jobs.

This is great news. Let's hope it impacts Scottish Police too.

Stonewall are peaking the public all by themselves- this has been a long time coming

So sad that a once fine organisation turned into the playground bully. But I'm delighted to see mass falling of scales from eyes.

Now we know why Alison Bailey's court case has been adjourned; the scoundrels knew they were in for a tanking so they're regrouping to get their shit together 😡

I ain't taking that bet now though. No siree! 🤣

Oi! Maugham! You seeing all this, son? This one's for the fox 😉

I look back on the past year with some sadness, as I realise I had to lose a few long-time online friends because of the divisive no debate campaign from Stonewall and its far-reaching tentacles. I just couldn't stay friends with people who were so blind to the damage this ideology caused. So willing to throw away our rights and pretend safeguarding wasn't a concern. As if predatory males would just suddenly behave themselves and not exploit a massive loophole like self-id.

I'm so sorry to hear that, Loretta. It's hard isn't it? I've lost a few friends over this, one I'd known since she was a little girl in a youth group I set up. She's a young academic now and seriously swallows all the bs she's been sold about gender ideology and I'm just a nasty old bigot. I thought she knew me better than that... Ah well. But, recently, what's been so heartening is to see people I never thought would 'get it' start to wake up. I've had a couple of those "Oh my goodness you're absolutely right!" conversations lately. And plenty of "I sent my friend your articles and she was appalled!" conversations, too. Take heart! xx

I don't expect they will admit any wrong-doing on their part, and will probably wonder what feminists were all worked up about.

That kind of happened yesterday with the car crash Cohen interview - we know Glinner and many others have the receipts though.

Yes, it's heartbreaking especially when it's someone very close to you.

JL, you made my day! Thank you.❤️

So great to see positive news on this front. Many thanks, JL. Are you the new gendertrender? That's what it feels like to me, only you can dare to attach your name to this blog. I think if she had done so she would have been murdered.

Thank you so much Susan. This is the only site on which write about gender ideology. I wish I could put my name on it but I work in the wokest industry and have already suffered professionally for being 'out'. So now I have to be super-careful, unfortunately. I'm a single gal with nobody to pay my bills but me!

Take good care of yourself, JL, this is important work. Gendertrender had her work stolen by wordpress, then she set up her own website, but she hasn't published much since. She was working on this nonsense for years and covered every possible angle. Witch hunting never died; women are still being persecuted for having their own ideas and thoughts.

the wording around the bit re: allison bailey is the whole enchilada...women might mount legal challenges, i.e. these entities are pulling out for fear they are going to get sued. They can march lockstep along with maiming children but the minute their bank accounts are threatened they run for the hills. Welcome to reality, Stonewall.

Yes, they're going to take a HUGE hit to the wallet as more orgs pull out of their little protection racket.

That's really what it is, a protection racket. Go woke or go broke manipulation and blackmail.

Today just keeps getting better.

It starts as a noble cause, becomes a business and then ends up as a racket.

Yes!

To quote an American working-class writer (Joe Bageant): Everything in this goddamned country (U.S.A.) is a racket. Our version of Stonewall is Equality [fill in the blank with a state]. Set up to promote gay and lesbian rights and when achieved turned into a trans propaganda machine.
