You might perhaps emphasise that this Mridul is a MAN and a LIAR (on at least his application to secure his ultimate job as the CEO of Edinburgh Rape Crisis. Although presumably the committee knew he was a man before they promoted him. Which shows how much empathy *they* have with victims of rape).
He's seriously mentally unwell and/or deluded as well if he thinks he's a woman.
And his comments also illustrate his complete lack of empathy and utter unsuitability for the role he lied his way into getting.
I just hope I never need women's services in Scotland as there are none now I would trust. I work for another charity who signposts vulnerable people to support services and I have a real problem with that wondering what we are sending them into. It's like women will have to meet in secret to help each other in future. Who would have thought this could happen in this day and age in a formerly civilised country.
I just wrote to support@rapecrisisscotland.org.uk to voice my anger and ask them to consider why a man in a dress should choose to work with vulnerable women. I had to do that to stop seething.
Fit to be tied 😠 That penis-person transvestite is not just condoning the rape of women who know that he's a bloke, a fake and a misogynist, he's effectively advocating for it. I'd also like to know who all these crossdressers who need rape crisis services are? Most of them have their 🍆and nobody would touch them with a bargepole!
I have never felt so ashamed of my country as I do now , thanks to this completely screwed up ideology ,whose proponents continue to wage an ever increasingly toxic war on women !! The hatred and contempt they have for us is way beyond anything we could ever have imagined .Hard to believe we have female politicians in every political party ,and ,unbelievably , a FEMALE First Minister who classes herself as a FEMINIST !! What kind of mentality do people have to have ,in order to convince themselves that (a) a trans identifying male is a woman and( b) that such a person will be able to understand and empathise with women who have been raped !! Rape ,after all is every WOMAN'S worst nightmare !!. No MAN will ever completely understand that !!' More likely that CEO will " get off " on women's suffering !! Wish more decent men ( like Graham ) would stand up against this
I can't help but wonder how The Guilty Feminist has come to have made it from those first so powerful episodes to this point. I first discovered it four years or so ago and listened through the archive from the beginning. The topics covered at the start (taking up space, apologising, feeling comfortable in your own skin, our relationship with food, whether or not to have children and why that shouldn't define you) were so powerful and opened my eyes to so many things. DFW is an intelligent and articulate woman who seemed to start off with such fantastic ideas for helping women to stop feeling so guilty all the time for always feeling like we've failed in some way. Sadly, as the podcast became more and more woke I stopped listening as I began to feel like I was failing again. So many new hidden standards and trip wires - there was no way I could ever be good enough.
I no longer listened but it was still downloaded on to my phone, week after week. I finally deleted it shortly after JKR started getting all the abuse for her apparent transphobia (nonsense as we know). I had read her tweets and couldn't understand how any woman or feminist could see them as transphobic. She was merely standing up for her fellow women. When I saw DFW tweet that to make up for the harm JKR was causing she would send money to any transwomen of colour to atone for this harm I was dumbfounded. Did she do the same when Weinstein went to court and offer money to women who'd been sexually assaulted by men with power over them? No. Did she offer to hand money to women subject to VAWG when JKR described the abuse she had experienced? No. I felt so betrayed by a woman I had so looked up to.
I feel I will have to listen to this episode to hear for myself what was said but it pains me to do it.
Deborah Francis White also issued a statement saying:
“I don’t want trans people to feel unsafe in The Guilty Feminist space so I’ve ask the lovely people who run my accounts to block & mute anything hurtful &/or written in bad faith. To anyone who has questions that are in good faith and are seeking to understand more, then email” etc etc and goes on to give contact details.
1. Hurtful or written in good faith? Sounds like ANY dissenting voices were seen to be in bad faith and conveniently blocked.
2. If you’re blocked how were you meant to see this statement?! Literally what is the point.
3. Genuinely sad to see that asking questions is considered so bad faith from a supposedly feminist website. How has it come to this?!
Why is he still in charge?? why hasnt his employer (public sector i spose) been taken to court for breaching the EQA? or is this cos Transland doesnt have the EQA? Im genuinely confused
"The CEO of Edinburgh Rape Crisis has said "Sexual violence happens to bigoted people too. But if you bring beliefs that are discriminatory, expect to be challenged on your prejudice. Reframe your trauma" Apparently, survivors are to be "educated" in this service."
No you don't need to reframe your thoughts. Men cannot become women.
and
"cis, white, hetronormative women"... I don't know any of them.
The dissemination of Critical Race Theory - which states ALL white people are innately racist - is to blame for this horrific school of thought.
It's already infected university campuses in America and we all know what the US does today, the UK does tomorrow.
Incidentally a BAME Tory education minister attempted to outlaw its teachings and - surprise surprise - she was met with howls of derision from Keir Starmer's Labour Party.
Those with NPD are also pathological liars. In the end, they can no longer tell truth from lies, for everything blurs into one. They just lie and lie and lie and lie and............
Anything else you'd like Mridul? A cup of tea? Shall I get you your slippers? Your smoking jacket? This was triggering in a way that surprised me. This person is showing they are incapable of holding the position they have lied to obtain, and cannot be a spokesperson advocating for the rights and safety of women. I think a man in that role would be castigated and sacked for similar, yet this transwoman can somehow use their male and supposedly female privilege to escape censure.
My heart breaks at how far we are sinking silently back and losing the rights my forebears fought for.
To centre men in everything particularly anything that is women’s. Oppression, domination punching down and effectively theft. The system is built on erasing women and using our reproductive and unpaid labour. We must be shut up and put men’s wants first. So bleedin’ obvious.The only people who don’t understand male privilege and their ability to dominate and control women are people who’ve never met any men. Women are treated as slaves routinely and have little or few rights still despite “laws” they’re also conditioned to think this is the way it should be. Such non sense. Love love your work!

Good morning. Alan Driscoll Is A Total Knob.
Ah yes, "educate yourself".
Well, I did. That's why I'm utterly repulsed by Trans Rights Activism.

Say what you like about Deborah Frances-White, but her commitment to cults is admirable. Absolutely loves them.
