James Max has a terrible, terrible day

First, he was humiliated by a calm, lethal Kellie-Jay.

talkRADIO @talkRADIO

Campaigner Kellie-Jay Keen and James Max clash over the issue of 'sex-based rights' and JK Rowling's 'trans-row'. James: "I am slightly staggered by your views." Campaigner Kellie-Jay Keen: "What? That biological sex exists." @thejamesmax

Then, he tried to tell a series of women why they were bigots, and got smashed into the far corner of the court every time.

A friend suggested he was camping it up for maximum coverage. I really don’t think so. I think he’s just another extremely naive person who hasn’t thought about it beyond the way he’s been told to think about it. He was genuinely flummoxed by Posie’s arguments and could only do those hilarious passive-aggressive pauses as if KJ’s ‘bigotry’ spoke for itself when in fact she was landing blow after blow. Check out his use of scare quotes in this one.

James Max @thejamesmax

This is simply nonsense. The argument from KJ is a well honed piece of narrative to cover a much darker truth. Her ‘factual’ replies simply highlight the prejudices she holds.

@thejamesmax @millihill @talkRADIO "I don't support bullying in any shape or form." and yet that's exactly what you tried to pull off with KJ. You picked the wrong mark and instead of listening to her factual replies you doubled down on the insults. You only ended up proving her point.

After being ratio’d to heck and back, James turned for comfort to his fellow males, a C-lister from Harry Potter and the dependably insane India Willoughby. Not a great day for him but a hugely entertaining one for the rest of us.

Is The Guardian just going to front this one out?

This is actually a Moley parody, but it led me to thinking…are the Guardian just going to front it out? What happened to their Person of The Year poll? Has it suddenly ceased to exist in the Guardian universe, like Suzanne Moore or safeguarding?

Vanessa McCulloch @NeedaGin

When the Guardian asked "who is your Person of the Year?" and nearly all the replies said @jk_rowling I enjoyed that very much.

Is your baby transphobic?

Mandy Stadtmiller @mandystadt

“I’ve talked about the transphobic baby at work before.”

This is heartbreaking

She’s been harmed for life. “Everything about my transition felt right until last year, shortly before turning 21.” “This year has easily been the worst year of my life. I am mourning my voice and body. I can’t stop thinking about how different my life could have been.”

Since transphobic websites are posting about this, I just want to say unequivocally that we are proud to publish this letter. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

science.orgTransgender rights rely on inclusive languageInclusive language around sex diversity has never been more important. In the 5 years since the National Institutes of Health’s notice that proposals address sex as a biological variable (1), the sociopolitical climate has become dangerously hostile to transgender and gender-diverse people.

@hholdenthorp I note the corresponding author (who appears to be a student) was happy to put their name to this paper where no such tiptoeing around the nature of sex was observed.

Look who wrote that ‘trans style guide’ for American journalists

4W @4WPub

A committee member at the Trans Journalist Association, which is influencing major media outlets to censor stories on trans criminals, is a trans-identified male with a history of violent rape fantasies, specifically towards "cis women" and "TERFs."

MEN HAVE A PHYSICAL ADVANTAGE OVER WOMEN, YOU BABOON’S ARSE.

David Heslop @dtHeslop

This is *exactly* the conversation my brother and I have whenever this issue raises its ugly head. Really don't know why this would be so hard, unless you're creepily wedded to organising based on genitals.

Jessie Earl @jessiegender

If you take issue with trans women in sports, the answer isn’t to ban trans folks, but rethink how we segregate sports; not on sex, but on sport specific requirements, like weight class. But it’s easier to be discriminatory then rethink how society can be more inclusive.

It is a matter of urgency to keep these people away from kids

Sammie 🦖🦕 @sammie_2007

This woman has no business being around kids. This is so far beyond creepy.

Let's play a game I call "is this a picture of a TIM I saw on a lesbian dating app, or a picture from a screamer site circa 2010?

Hey, white people who are ignoring black/brown women while using them to argue for extra rights for a group made up predominantly of white men - could you explain how the people 👇on the left are evil white feminists while the people on the right are victims of white supremacy?
