What’s it gonny take tae stop this. Someone’s murder!! A don’t doubt for a second that there’s women in prison that could sort that wee bellend out but why should they further fuck up their civil liberties!! Unless they’re forced!!

Exactly, Greta. They should never be put in that position. He frightened a professional prison officer so much, she quit her job. Why on earth is he being accommodated with vulnerable women?

Because what blokes want is more important, literally, than women's lives.

Sadly, that's all too true. As Germaine Greer said, women have very little idea how much men hate them.

Why isn't Daniel/Sophie Eastwood in Broadmoor secure hospital, or the Scottish equivalent? He is an unstable psychopath. The description of how he killed in cold blood... I'm terrified reading about him.

You're absolutely right, Una-Jane. He's clearly a very disturbed & dangerous young man. And yet, when he decided he was a woman, nobody questioned his motives & just shipped him off to a women's prison. (No doubt they were scared of the backlash from the woke brigade if they'd done anything other than validate 'gender identity'.)

Carstairs State Hospital. I agree, he should be there and nowhere near freedom.

JL, I am very grateful to you for these. Even if it does fill me with rage...high hopes for Allison though! So much of the nonsense seems to be, in the end, linked to the influence of Stonewall. If she can win, maybe, maybe, they will be persuaded to review their take on all this.

Thank you, Jop. Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. Stonewall's influence is pernicious and all-encompassing. It's unrecognisable from the brilliant organisation it used to be. I too have high hopes for Allison's case. What a brave woman!

I wasn't sure where to put this, but here seems as good a place as any... such a muddle of gender stereotypes and distortion of childhood play

"Intimate apparel" for "gender creative" children?? JFC. These people are sick.

More stereotypes...

Two female pirates and an artist's idea of women's bodies - it's Wollstonecraft all over again!

(apologies for the Dailymail link- it had the best images to see the difference)

Should also have mentioned that, although they're depicted in gender-breaking britches/trousers in old illustrations - as might be useful for pirate work, the modern sculpture has them kitted out like Kim Kardashian in figure hugging dresses. Missing the point, much?

Yet more statuary and sculpture that sexualises women and fetishizes lesbians. I'm SO weary of this bullshit.
