(Via Cathy and @AyeshadeQueiroz) These. People. Are. Homophobes And sure enough…no gay men to be seen. I got a mention in the Dail! Thanks to Peadar Tóibín! “I spoke to several Deputies from Fine Gael concerning this aspect. They said they agreed with Graham Linehan and other views on this subject but that they were too afraid to talk about these issues openly….”
Saw that too, but decided we can ignore them. Nobody can possibly remember the endless speshul factions let alone their infinite colour captures. Women ARE the suffragette descendants. Those colours are known as ours.
They are, but I do think it is a deliberate attempt to co-opt them. I expect they think it's amusing or clever and people will see it and adopt it to mean gender queer when in fact, I believe it will be the opposite - people will see it and continue to think Suffragette even if they are trying to use it in a different way. However, it does get me how they think they can just trample over anything that is the right and birthright of women.
Of course it was. I bet they think they are the first to put those colours together as they invented colours too. That Suffragettes stole them from them. Colour spectrums? That's trans that is and it's light and that nature and science thing way of telling us about Queer Theory.
"I love putting leaflets for trans positive organisations in Harry Potter books I sell at the bookstore I work at. My boss knows about this but won’t do anything about it out of fear of being called transphobic"
Such stunning bravery from an ally to the most cruelly-marginalised group ever. The spirit of Martin Luther King lives on.
Re. National Coming Out Day. We see that gay men aren't represented, and we know that the Lesbian flag is for 'lesbians with girl dick'. So ... same sex attracted people, for whom the entire Pride movement started, have been kicked under the rusting 'gender' bus. And could someone please tell me the difference between bi-sexual (which is a complete admission that there are two sexes, but nobody is allowed to see this 'plain as the nose on your face' fact) and pansexual? Does pansexual, if it's not the same as bi-sexual, include attraction towards children and animals? Please explain.
Pansexual is essentially a woke term for bisexual, so attraction to trans identified people is specifically included, but the reality is they are either men or women (and orientation is based on sex not gender).
Pansexual is used because 'bisexual' is so passe. So twentieth-century. More than that, 'pansexual' enables you to declare that everyone else hates you, 'invalidates' you and denies your 'existence', therefore giving you the victim status upon which the entire cult revolves.
Bang on. Wonderful insight into the multiple possibilities of interpretation contained within one measly word. In the cult's beginning was the 'word' -- and the word was 'pansexual'. Because never has one word contained so much room for grievance and nonsense.
Huh. In the 'gender' 'woke' world, I presume this was a necessary expansion upon the simple and easy to understand term bi-sexual. But, we gotta include 'trans', the most marginalized segment of our population. And in order to do this, we need to ever expand the obfuscation of language. It's all nonsense, isn't it?
Ha -- even the nuances are nuanced. No one will ever get it right because it's an ever- evolving, ever-fluid NONSENSE that contains a zillion ways to 'offend', 'transgress', 'hurt', and create 'unsafety'. Nutters.
Am providing a link below from a recent Esquire article. This woman writes an article about her 'chest' binding and 'chest' surgery without even once using the word 'breasts'. She is in complete denial about what she's actually done. She goes on to say that upon the removal of her 'chest', she felt, and she struggled for words -- "ecstasy comes close; euphoria is the word we sometimes use'" "We". Meaning the cult, I guess, or perhaps some of her multiple personalities? Euphoria is as unbalanced as dysphoria. Regular people, balanced people, do not feel ecstasy when looking into the mirror. This woman tells us that "as a teenager, I had NO GODS NO MASTERS inscribed on a good portion of my belongings". How ironic is it that she's now possessed by her 'gender' gods and masters, so much so, that's she's offered up her BREASTS as sacrifice, and proof of her fealty?
She's probably still on the oxycodone, xanax, lorazapam, trazadone, dilaudid &etc. The "euphoria" is likely pharma. One day, the sensation of no sensation above the bottom of the ribcage will settle in. I never liked that arrogant and superficial magazine.
I think you're spot on. And she'll be lucky if she simply has no sensation from what Euxalansic (did I spell that correctly?) writes. A lot of these women have intense pain because their nerve endings are relentlessly looking for their breasts.
Exulansic is at Isle of Ex on YouTube. My understanding, from a friend who had heart surgery, is that the scars prevent the lungs from fulling completely during an inhale. Just not good!
"Lying in bed now, I look at my chest. The tissue has been broken down by nineteen years of binding".
Even those who obtain bizarre euphoria from mutilating themselves support the notion that what Mermaids have been posting out to teen girls will ruin their bodies. Not aware that wearing a bra (usual trans retort) breaks down breast tissue!!
I agree with most things you write but I didn’t like the post laughing at white people (it looked like it was a US church group) asking Black people for forgiveness. The horrific history of racial oppression and slavery makes this understandable, and if those people feel better for asking forgiveness what’s wrong with that? I found it quite moving to watch. I don’t think it is relevant to the gender debate at all, and is out of place in your blog.
I come from a civil rights-oriented family and I find this ridiculous. How can you ask forgiveness for historical crimes? If you're asking forgiveness for SPECIFIC CRIMES you have engaged in, then that should be a private matter between you and the person you harmed.
Yeah, sorry Louise but this just smacks of performative nonsense. Are these bended knee peeps really "forgiven" for the sins of all white slave owning people of the past? Are they now free to judge other people with a righteous indignation? This doesn't improve anything it just adds to the rivulets of dribble staining the grubby humblebib of desperate fools. However, it's fine to disagree.
Black Americans have between 15% and 25% European ancestry, through white slave owners and overseerers. Most whites in the USA are descended from people who emigrated from Europe in the late 19th and early 20th century. Long after slavery finished. So perhaps black Americans are far more culpable for the slave trade than most White Americans !
Wait a sec - what is Owen Jones saying is a stupid line of argument? That trans women are just another category of woman like white women and black women? Yes, that's an abysmally peurile and illogical line of argument. For since when was whiteness or blackness a distinguishing quality of womanhood? There's no difference whatsoever between the womanliness of a white woman and the womanliness of a black woman. But equally obviously a world of difference exists between the womanliness of a woman and the non existent womanliness of a trans woman. So well done OJ - you spotted the false syllogism. A woman can be equally black or white or any shade in between, but not equally male or female. Male is and can never be a 'category' of female. Glad to see OJ you are too well educated to get into that sort of hopeless intellectual muddle. That WOULD be embarrassing.
Monty's little untruth was though deliberate. Our Monty exposed a lot of TRA's as being daft.
Owen Jones though! There has to be some personal medical reason for him to write what he did. '...trans men are another category of men like white men and black men'. Otherwise I'm afraid many people are going to telling LOJ that he's racist and inviting them to sue them (knowing that Jones has no chance of winning because of this comment).
Governor George Wallace of Alabama would have loved Owen Jones. John Tyndall, fascist founder of the National Front and later chairman of the British National Party would have adored Owen Jones.
Dear Glinner I hope you read this post but as a longterm fan of the TERF persuasion albeit limited legal knowledge on this issue - can we not sell tickets in advance for Father Ted? I mean you wont disappoint us. What price for one ticketed donation? Just an idea ....
He's what? 6'1", 6'3" in his socks and with that incredibly deep voice. He will peak the entire cohort of Warwick University Student Unions TRA's/incels in one fell swoop, and then hopefully go on tour.
There might be value in GC's actually providing Monty covert sponsorship for him to go on tour. And I reckon he would be grateful for it and do us proud.
Hmmm, the pride flag did used to represent same sex attraction and nothing more. You do realise the HIV comment was directed at someone who is positive?
You should know that there are millions of people around the world who are HIV-positive (see The Real Anthony Fauci) and who are perfectly healthy. Kennedy notes three theories about the onset of AIDS and doesn't endorse one because he knows he doesn't know why. The people who are HIV-positive did not necessarily engage in any promiscuous behavior; it seems to be a very common virus. I would like to read Celia Farber's book about AIDS because she explores these questions. The popper (amyl nitrite) theory seems the most sensible to me, the AIDS diseases being quite similar to what happens to men who use poppers constantly.
The well-researched and published theory I heard a few years back is that it originated in polio vaccine prepared in the 1950’s from chimpanzee tissue culture. It certainly would explain why it’s so common (i.e., didn’t originate from sexual contact), and so variable in its individual expression. The only exploration of immunological “terrain” theory I’ve personally seen is the film with Matthew McConaghey, “Dallas Buyer’s Club,” which depicts an individual who met up with a Mexican bio researcher in the early stages of the initial AIDS crisis and explored his recommendations about cutting down/out his use of alcohol, other drugs, and poor quality food. (“Popper theory?”) This theory makes the most sense to me personally, as it’s in accord with the “terrain” theory of immunity. In other words, weakening of the immune system through chronic drug use could well trigger the cascade of associated conditions. Thanks for mentioning!
Yes, men who used poppers all night long (they relax the sphincter muscles, which is how they are used medically) also suffered from sleep deprivation, malnutrition, and substance abuse. Amazingly, gay publications were often funded by the makers of poppers, so the publications refused to address their harmful effects (sound familiar?).
A friend of mine told me about her friends in the (West) Village who had large canisters of antibiotics; they would just down a handful if they thought they had been exposed to an STD. Talk about trashing your immune system! I've got to get that Farber book.
I know someone who contracted HIV in their very first sexual experience, is that a self-destructive person? They were then worried about being intimate again incase they passed it on, is that self-destructive? To be honest it sounds like you have internalised homophobia. You're just a regular person who happens to be same sex attracted, and has nothing to do with those filthy gays. The person you obviously feel most sorry for is yourself, that anyone might think you have anything to do with the rainbow flag. The flag which led to your rights.
Many people don't 'do' Pride or the gay scene and did get HIV. This includes non gay people.
You don't 'do' the gay scene. You didn't fuck around. You didn't get HIV. Super but so what? This does not mean you're virtuous. There are many of us who don't agree with Pride or hang out on the gay scene. I am one of these people but it doesn't make me better than anyone else.
What is about you as a person that you would say this...?
"You're a cretinous, disgusting lot and I utterly loathe the lot of you."
You appear to have something going on inside you that you're unhappy with. I encourage you to look within.
I clearly did not claim you were virtuous. You have misread or misinterpreted my words. But then you're more interested in expressing your own opinion (in a ridiculously prolix and snarky way) than actually reading someone else's.
I see the Suffragette colours are now genderqueer?! Is there nothing that women can't have of our own?
Saw that too, but decided we can ignore them. Nobody can possibly remember the endless speshul factions let alone their infinite colour captures. Women ARE the suffragette descendants. Those colours are known as ours.
They are, but I do think it is a deliberate attempt to co-opt them.

However, it does get me how they think they can just trample over anything that is the right and birthright of women.
Yeah, I agree with all that. We can be sure their attempted co-opting will backfire on them, though. It already is.
And that gives me hope :)
Of course it was. I bet they think they are the first to put those colours together as they invented colours too. That Suffragettes stole them from them. Colour spectrums? That's trans that is and it's light and that nature and science thing way of telling us about Queer Theory.
