Our cup runneth over with good news stories from the gender beat this week. Enjoy! AHF Direct Action Around a dozen awesome women undertook a fabulous mission to place Adult Human Female postcards all over London last week. The AHF postcard action took place over the weekend of 9th-10th July 2023. Post cards were placed in museums, galleries, libraries, tourist outlets, bookshops and charity shops etc throughout the capital. The women involved in this brilliant action estimate they placed around 2,400 postcards in public places in and around central London. Huge congratulations to all involved!
The sporting bodies are now accepting that making women compete against men has been an injustice.
Where’s the apology for all the athletes who have had their careers ruined by men and the sporting bodies that allowed this injustice.
Obviously the trans identifying men cheating women out of their careers won’t apologise because they are the most persecuted people on the planet- boo hoo, but the sporting institutions let this go on and talented elite athletes have literally given up because of the unfairness, and others have had to stand next to men whilst everyone celebrates how f-ing brave he’s been.
Come on dickheads apologise.
I’ve heard some cycling boss apologise to men because they are no longer allowed to cheat women, They don’t need the f-ing apology. The female athletes they damaged do. Wankers.
If you have done something wrong and you want forgiveness you come clean and apologise. Too late for a lot of talented women. The least they can do is say sorry.
I think we'll be waiting a long time for any sort of apology, CB. But at least the rules are changing. In this fight, I think the wheels grind very slowly.
yes you’re right JL. Little comfort to the athletes that lost their best years to men. i refuse to call them trans women. Sorry JL ranting and nobsplaining as usual
JL, sorry I don’t know how to get a message to you but there’s an incredibly shocking story unfolding. A group of ideologues have written a report on transgender pregnancy rights and how it’s worth the risk of damage to the foetus for trans men to take testosterone. Barry Wall has done a video and Dusty Masterson has got a link to a Colin Wright article on it. It’s Dusty’s Update 176 Apocalypse Now.
Don't worry! We are all over it! I've already written up the item for next week's War on Women & I think there will also be a 'special'. Meanwhile, Graham has been tweeting all about it over on the soshull meeja.
You put the words in my mouth CB. It’s like hang on there are women over there waiting not only for an apology but a huge wad of compensation. It’s the biggest farce I have ever laid witness to in my lifetime. I don’t think I will ever reconcile what has happened.
It’s just revealing. So many governing bodies, coaches, and journalists are SO sexist. They must have assumed that women’s sports don’t count anyway and that women athletes are so self abnegating that they would take one for inclusivity. People who work in the sports world just couldn’t understand that women love their sports as much as men. I will never forget how many people just took it for granted that women athletes would put some men’s feelings above their careers or even just their own right to have fun playing a sport.
I think that what we're seeing with this (and the onslaught of the trans mind-virus as a whole) is the essence of gender laid bare. Without anything to conceal its utter cruelty and stupidity.
Women's resources, interests, concerns, and wellbeing don't matter. WOMEN don't matter. We only exist for others-- especially men. To fulfill their wants. And we should happily sacrifice ourselves to do it.
I'm no Pollyanna; that life constitutes-- in the immortal words of Horace Walpole-- "a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel" was never news to me.
But even so, I am continuously horrified by this trans ideology and what it has wrought.
I keep thinking of the final, despairing lines from Shirley Jackson's classic horror story "The Lottery" (1948):
“It isn't fair, it isn't right," Mrs. Hutchinson screamed, and then they were upon her.” :(
On Woman’s Hour, Nancy Kelley was once asked by Emma Barnett to name any transphobic comment J K Rowling has ever made. She was unable to. What an utter cunt.
Sadly Emma Barnett is still there and I remain unconvinced about her beliefs. Perhaps you’re thinking about the wonderful Jane Garvey? She knew what a woman is!
Do you mean Emma B is still at the BBC ? I don' think I've heard anything of her for ages, but I think she deserves some credit for putting that question to Nancy Kelley.
Ah yes, Jane Garvey, how could I have forgotten her?
Oh yes, I'd forgotten, Emma B is on maternity leave, Nuala McGovern 'standing in' for her. I haven't heard Nuala asking any of those awkward questions, though, and at the time I thought "They won't want Emma back".
Yes I’ve always wondered why this is one of the worst insults to use, well I do know, but I mean it feels weird when I hear it because it only has positive associations for me
And they're moving the men out of women's prisons. Dystopian that we should be in a position to celebrate such news, innit?? Thanks JL, as always, for the uplifting news .
Thank goodness for items like this, especially after seeing the latest PITT and Denton Y-C horrors. There are still too many unenlightened ‘kind’ folk out there but things do at least seem to be moving in the right direction.
Let's hear it for the Daily Mail. They might still report those perverts as 'she' but they have still reported things broadsheets ignored. Here are a few other examples:
I think it's IPSO that has the papers calling a he a she. Most of them do it or they carefully avoid the use of pronouns. Where is the promised new IPSO guidance?
The media are using this to hide behind. I suspect that, like everyone else, they're more scared of the activists than IPSO.
From IPSO's guidance:
"We can make newspapers and magazines publish corrections or adjudications if they breach the Editors’ Code, including on their front page.
We can investigate serious standards failings and can fine publishers up to £1 million in
particularly serious cases."
BUT in the examples they give, even where they uphold complaints, they seem to lean towards the paper printing "corrections or adjudications". There may have been fines but they can't have been that big or we'd have heard about them.
I'm sure they could use the 'public interest' argument successfully in the case of sex offenders.
That Beatles video is frikkin' hilarious. When such a ludicrous ideology demands to be taken seriously, sometimes a fine piss-take is just what's needed. Cheers JL.
Aaaannd! Publication of an outrageous "research" paper in Qualitative Research in Health by Pfeffer, et al. Et al and Pf. being cross-sex ideating pretend social scientists who claim its too "off-spring focused" to prevent pregnant women (aka "transmen") from taking testosterone while gestating a baby! Kudos to Jennifer Lahl and Kallie Fell of Center for Bio-Ethics and Culture, for critiquing this dangerous claim. Part 1 of my reading, with my usual pithy comments and asides:
Collateral damage. Nothing to see here. Just babies sacrificed to the gender gods. Poisoned by man 'milk', deformed by excess testosterone while in utero, psychically bewildered from daycare age on up. Once a natural law, in this instance, biological, has been ‘transgressed' -- the gates of hell are opened, and all manner of disturbance in the field is unleashed.
In the Jennifer Lahl analysis I read today on my channel, she notes that testosterone causes the male fetus not to have a vaginal opening. I think you are right about that case. What a nightmare. The selfishness these women expressed from the study claiming doctors have "offspring focus" and don't realize they need their T is horrible. Thanks
I think I saw it on Exulansic's blog, but she appears to have taken down the video where she was being sympathetic to AGPs (because, you know, anyone can get a brain lesion at any time if they are carrying the herpes virus like 97% of the population, and when you get a brain lesion beware). I'm seriously thinking of unsubscribing to her and subscribing to Celia Farber who puts up a range of interesting topics.
With respect, Baker is not an ex-con. He is still serving his sentence for torture and attempted murder, but he was released on licence ( probationary). His antics have now been too much even for the police and judiciary, though not for the fawning Labour MPs who still seem happy to endorse him.
I came into this transgender thing "late" i.e. I didn't sit through the subtle incremental gradations of brainwashing to create a spurious scientific verisimilitude. So I feel like the boy in the Hans Christian Anderson tale of the Emperor's new clothes. What a load of embarrassingly obvious SHIT!

Not at all, CB. You're amongst friends here.

You’re a star, thanks, I’m not on twitter and Musk has blocked non members so I’m a bit out of touch now.
It is becoming a much better site for the gender critical and rad fems etc!
Yes, maybe I should bite the bullet and join.
You put the words in my mouth CB. It’s like hang on there are women over there waiting not only for an apology but a huge wad of compensation. It’s the biggest farce I have ever laid witness to in my lifetime. I don’t think I will ever reconcile what has happened.
Did they really think no one was going to care?

Lol. I do like a nicely placed C-bomb!
Ah, Emma Barnett. . . . Jenni Murray . . . . Where are they now?
I'd like to know who's responsible for getting rid of them off Woman's Hour !
Sadly Emma Barnett is still there and I remain unconvinced about her beliefs. Perhaps you’re thinking about the wonderful Jane Garvey? She knew what a woman is!
Do you mean Emma B is still at the BBC ? I don' think I've heard anything of her for ages, but I think she deserves some credit for putting that question to Nancy Kelley.
Ah yes, Jane Garvey, how could I have forgotten her?
She is, main host of Woman’s Hour. She’s been known to appear sympathetic to the other side of the trans situation though.
Oh yes, I'd forgotten, Emma B is on maternity leave, Nuala McGovern 'standing in' for her. I haven't heard Nuala asking any of those awkward questions, though, and at the time I thought "They won't want Emma back".
We shall see . .
C-nt is a flattering remark ... surely ... being an important pleasurable body part of females?
Yes I’ve always wondered why this is one of the worst insults to use, well I do know, but I mean it feels weird when I hear it because it only has positive associations for me
And they're moving the men out of women's prisons. Dystopian that we should be in a position to celebrate such news, innit?? Thanks JL, as always, for the uplifting news .
My pleasure, Miss Jemima!
As always 🌹
The wheels might not be coming off yet but the nuts ( lol) are surely unscrewing
Thank you, Petal! An unscrewing of nuts is the perfect analogy! 😉 x
Hope they’re all ( and the daft twats that bought into this shit ) greeting over their p45s
It’s very quiet up here in scottishland , it’s making me nervous
Both Cherry and Salmond have spots at the fringe , should be interesting to say the least ……
JL thank you for this, the sun is over the yardarm somewhere, so im currently raising a glass to celebrate the good news!!!
Thank you, Trudie. Cheers! 🥂
It’s always 5 o clock somewhere 🍷
My thoughts exactly!
Thank goodness for items like this, especially after seeing the latest PITT and Denton Y-C horrors. There are still too many unenlightened ‘kind’ folk out there but things do at least seem to be moving in the right direction.
Ah, this is a great week, thank you.
Let's hear it for the Daily Mail. They might still report those perverts as 'she' but they have still reported things broadsheets ignored. Here are a few other examples:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12129995/How-401k-savings-used-turn-biggest-brands-woke-revealed-ex-Anheuser-Busch-exec.html
Their politics might not be to everyone's taste but their reports are pretty useful
I think it's IPSO that has the papers calling a he a she. Most of them do it or they carefully avoid the use of pronouns. Where is the promised new IPSO guidance?
Dusty
It appears to still be just a draft despite having been published in Feb for a four week consultation. There are no updates that I could find.
I notice they're still listing Mermaids as an organisation to consult at the moment
At least the draft guidance doesn't include the heavily biased (ie ALL pro trans) list of organisations.
Existing guidance: https://www.ipso.co.uk/resources-and-guidance/transgender-guidance/
Draft guidance: https://www.ipso.co.uk/news-press-releases/press-releases/ipso-launches-public-consultation-on-draft-guidance-on-the-reporting-of-sex-and-gender-identity/
But what would actually happen to a news organisation if they reported the truth? How big a fine is it if you call a man a man?
The media are using this to hide behind. I suspect that, like everyone else, they're more scared of the activists than IPSO.
From IPSO's guidance:
"We can make newspapers and magazines publish corrections or adjudications if they breach the Editors’ Code, including on their front page.

particularly serious cases."

Aargh I missed it ,wasn’t on email so thanks for pointing it out
Very funny
Lovely read. Could even breathe throughout it. Thanks JL.
My pleasure, Fraserreal!

Didn't I just read about a baby girl born to one of these sick women? Born with no vagina.
Really? Do you have the source? And is the mother glad to have an "intersex" child. I would imagine there are other problems, too.
Let me look around. I read so much stuff online I forget where I saw things!

OMG.
Phew thanks as ever for the good news, JL.
I'm still recovering from she/he/they loves you ..ooh, help me.
Nearly as good as the non-binary horror film They Slash Them (sorry nicked that from the Queens' Speech - sorry ,guys) :)
Dusty
Thanks JL, you just saved me a trip to the bus stop 😉👍🏾
OK I can like this comment, Lyndsey :)
Dusty
Best yet, JL, well done!
Thank you, Rosie! x

Well done those Bath hospital staff who quietly subverted the Stonewall trans agenda. We need more people like you.
