ANOTHER feminist targeted by police
Scotland again, where a man uses the police to settle scores with his ex-wife
Dear Graham,
I just watched the podcast with Ceri & Ray Blanchard. Both excellent but I think you need to get Blanchard back on as there was so much more he could have said.
Anyway, the reason for the impromptu email is that I received a visit from Police Scotland tonight due to alleged transphobic hate…. what else!
I should explain a little…. I am 6 years into a very messy divorce. My husband has been on prozac for 6 years. He is quite an angry person in general but is even more so at the moment as our house finally sold recently (despite some sterling work on his part to frustrate the sale) and very soon he will have to get on with his life and leave me alone. We were together for 15 years. I had breast cancer 7 years ago (double mastectomy & chemotherapy) and ovarian cancer last year (hysterectomy & chemotherapy) … in all honesty, under the current Gestapo regulations in Scotland I am not actually sure that I am even allowed to call myself a Woman anymore - I don’t have a cervix and I can’t menstruate…Yikes!
In June I placed two stickers onto my own gate. One said Transwomen are Men and the other said some other factual message.
My husband declared that the world as he knew it had ended. Transwomen ARE women… I was a transphobic, bigoted, thoroughly unkind disgrace … (you get the picture).
I had no idea prior to this that he was an ‘Ally'… yawn. Previously he campaigned on FB for mental health rights as a mentally ill man. That didn’t work out too well for him. I think he’s hoping TRA will suit him better. He uses this ideology to abuse women whilst he looks ‘inclusive and kind’.
We currently share a property although we have completely separate homes within it. He has a Transgender flag at his window… duly installed once my TERF credentials came to light. My part of the house is a homage to JKR and Women’s Rights in general. We had words way back in June… resulting in a little rant from me… our daughter had a little cry at the time but she got a cuddle from both of us and I said sorry for upsetting her but explained that it was too important to say nothing. Life went on.
Now, my husband was banking on me checking out permanently and living out his tiny little life in our beautiful home doing whatever it is he does day-to-day.
He is angrier than usual as he has lost this house. Stress brings out the worst in him.
Recently a fellow xxxxxx Witch stickered the town we both happen to live in. Although it’s a small town it would appear that there are a few vocal TRA’s, or at the very least some over-privileged Allies. These people took to Waste-your-life-book as did my husband. I am not on FB.
Said Witch screen-shotted the xxxxx FB page and enquired if one of the delightfully woke commentators was my husband. Indeed it was.
Later that day I received some unpleasant messages. He seemed convinced that I was responsible for the heinous crime of placing a sticker somewhere. He voiced his opinion on who the vandal was on FB and mentioned that he’d reported a known individual to the police for the hate crime of stickering his gate. It was unnerving to have my suspicions confirmed. I did not respond to him.
Yesterday I spent 40 minutes on the phone to a child protection social worker defending myself as a mother (I recorded this) as they had just been sent a video of me defending the rights of women in my own garden at home after he had been quite verbally abusive, calling me a TERF etc. I know the SW well as she helped us xxxxx xx xxxxxxxx 9 years ago. She seemed a little put-out re my ‘Transphobia’ saying she was ’surprised because I am such a lovely, kind person'. I was a little put-out at having to defend myself. My daughter is happy, well adjusted and has hardly ever witnessed any conflict - which explains the tears when she witnessed my mini rant. I think SW’s should find some actual abused children to ‘help'.
I spoke to my lawyer today. A letter has been sent requesting he stops harassing me.
Tonight I received a visit from two of Police Scotland’s finest officers. They asked to come in and despite knowing I could have kept them outside I took pity on them (plus it’s just good manners isn’t it!) and invited them in. Frankly, I was not THAT surprised to see them and I wanted to hear what the fuck they had to say.
Them: Did I know why they were there?
Me: No
Them: Did I know anything about Transphobic stickers? The local FB warriors were deeply upset about this hate & the whole town was ‘up in arms' about a stickering campaign.
Me: I really doubt it’s the whole town.
Them: Did you sticker the town.
Me: No
Them: We have a witness that says they saw you.
Me: Really! <will admit to a momentary panic cos it wasn’t actually me who did this>
… also realisation that I was being set up by my husband and one other.
I did sticker my own gate in June but I am not responsible for any others - (that’s actually true Graham - I sticker everywhere else - but not in xxxxx itself).
Them: Do you know we can prosecute under the hate crime bill?
Me: <sigh> Yes, I am aware of that bill, it was brought in to silence women like me from defending our rights and the rights of our children.
What exactly did the offensive stickers say? - (I went and got my notepad and my pen at this point Graham).
Them: 1. Celebrating diversity by silencing Women
2. Women speak Scot Words cannot be considered more inclusive if they are erasing half the population.
3. Scotgov - you are being rather silly if you think a woman has a willy - (My personal favourite Graham and I could not contain a smirk)
Me: What is hateful?
Them <slight exasperation> Can you see how this is offensive?
Me: No.
Them: Look we have come here today because we received a complaint about you and you have upset the whole town with your stickers. Can you agree to not do it again.
Me: No. I didn’t do this stickering … but I agree with every single word. There is nothing hateful about them. They are defending the rights of women as our rights are actually in danger.
Them: <think they might have been thinking deary dear….does she not know who we are>
Me: Is this an actual crime?
Them: Erm….
Well, it could be perceived to be homophobic by a judge if it went to court. <I know!!! Homophobic I was thinking WTAF>
Me: Yes, but who decides if it is a hate crime? Has a crime actually been committed here?
Them: Erm…Possibly the one about the willy <FFS>
Me: So am I being arrested?
Them: No, not at this point. We are just here to ask you to stop stickering…
Me: I didn’t put the stickers up.
Them: Well a witness says you did. They saw your car.
Me: I live in xxxxx! I shop in xxxxx. What actual evidence do you have? <was starting to feel a little put out tbh Graham>
OK…
When did I commit this crime? Can you tell me the date and the time?
Them: Erm…Well, we haven’t actually taken a statement. We just came to speak to you as we received a call about transphobic hate…
Me: Really. So, basically you have come here to harass a woman for daring to speak about the erosion of women as a social and political class then?
Them: No.
Me: So why is the opinion and perceived offence caused to a man more important than my opinion and offence at the removal of my rights.
I find it offensive that you would come to my home like this and frankly intimidate me like this into shutting up.
Has a crime actually been committed?
Them: Erm…
Look, this is a small town and people are offended…. <blah blah blah>
At this point I pretty much let rip…politely but firmly. Very very firmly.
I might have said:
They will need to build more prisons
Raged about men in prisons
Raged about men running rape-crisis centres
Raged about queer theory in school
Raged about illegal schools guidance that sees school compelled to keep a 4-year-old’s self-declared gender identity a secret from parents
Them: Oh, I read about that… I wondered…what is all that about...
Raged about online porn
Raged about girls missing school due to periods
Raged about girls not drinking all day to avoid going to the toilet
Raged about 1 rape per week in schools & 6/10 girls experienced/witnessed sexual assault by age 16
Raged about Women and Girls sport
Raged about Self-ID
Raged about the notion that Twans people are ‘vulnerable’ - murder figures confirm that it’s Women who remain vulnerable <gave them the actual figures Graham>
Raged about Women and girls having not a single safe space away from men. Not even rape victims who are not transphobic but traumatised.
Raged about the absolute brass neck of two police officers turning up at my door thinking they can silence women.

Raged about my body.
Them: Jeez, Look we are not allowed to have personal opinions… just doing our job… hear what you are saying…blah blah blah
Me: I think we all have a responsibility to think about what we are doing to people and why…. <kind of looked the female right in the eye> You owe it to your women and children to have an opinion on this. This is very dangerous… <that was for the man>
Raged about confused children
Raged about Gay children
Raged about Breast binders
Raged about drugs these children are taking (PB’s, Wrong-sex hormones)

The Gender Industry
Me: Have a look at Forwomenscotland/SexMatters.org/Transgendertrend...
Do you watch Youtube?
Them: Yes, I’m always watching stuff.
Me: Watch Exulansic <gave gory details>
I have a podcast with… <gave all our names> watch xxxxxxxx
Watch Glinner
Them: Jeez xxxxxx, I could see you in Parliament.
You know your stuff
She got her pen out and faithfully wrote everything out, saying she has two daughters….He said ‘His thing' is fathers rights…and told me some personal details about his life…I shared a few personal details re my son…
Tears threatened by all.
They were here for 45 minutes and I realised during the visit that I am not afraid of them. I’m not afraid of any of them. I will not be silenced by them and nothing they say or do will make me change my mind.I won’t stop stickering or campaigning or talking. If they put me in prison it doesn’t matter because there is an army of women behind me ready to take my place and if they think I do not have the right to offend someone as I struggle with my tribe to hang on to my rights as a Woman and as a human being in my own right they can, in the words of Rex Landy…Get to fuck, and when they get there they can fuck off some more, and they can keep fucking off until they can’t fuck off any further… and then they can fuck off some more.
I hope they felt embarrassed.
I hope they felt utterly ashamed of the organisation that sent them to my door to shut me up.
I hope they understand more about what is at stake.
I hope they start thinking about how they can affect change.
I hope they talk about what happened.
I hope they care.
#WomenWontWheesht
I want to say that I have enormous sympathy for this woman and her situation. I also want to say that I have even more respect for her and her attitude and her words and her determination.
We are all doing our bit in some way, some much more than others. But In one sense, this woman is doing much more than others.
Keep it up and keep at it - if you can, and are 'allowed' to.
👏
You are very brave but please be careful. It's when the house sells that the realisation it's the end sinks in. He is capable of anything at this stage.
