Remember his appearance on Woman's Hour a few years ago? He said shaving their legs was a 'grooming standard' to which women should adhere & implied women are dirty if they don't. He was also incredibly rude & patronising to Jenni Murray & accused her of being hostile to trans people. I don't know why he insists so vociferously that he's a woman when he clearly doesn't like or respect women them very much!

"India" is a thoroughly unpleasant narcissistic fetishistic MAN. Displaying the worst of the typically MALE characteristics of bullying, and absolutely zero of the previously acknowledged female characteristics of compassion. Previously acknowledged as in the pre-lunacy days, when one was asked the difference between women and men, starting with "Women are more caring and compassionate......." etc.

Interestingly, I've never seen "India" walking around I've only ever seen him head and shoulders and in full make-up. The way he walks, his figure shape and general demeanor are quite clearly male. This is why people "misgender" him, because all their senses and instincts distinguish him as a man

“Penetrates” is a very male way of thinking about it! Poor Amanda Barrie!

India is losing the plot. Realising that a) people were only pretending to believe he was a woman and b) some people will exercise their right to say so, has done it. He's lost control.

He believes he is 'owed' because of all the surgery he's put himself through. Try being 'kinder' India.

Following the Keir Starmer 'Cervix' non-conversation, didn't India also tweet that he had a 'cervix'.

Of course, didn't say who gave it to him.

"India Willoughby is a 56-year-old trans-identified male who calls himself a ‘cis woman’, and believes that trans people in the UK today face the same persecution as Jews did during the Holocaust."

If the mainstream media still did journalism it could have pointed out - as Helen Joyce did - that "trans rights" started with three US billionaires and a global law firm lobbying politicians/universities/school boards with their considerable financial muscle. It's been marketed to look like a grassroots, civil rights campaign; hence Billy Bragg et al jump on board because they can't tell the difference between marketing a synthetic "marginalised" group and the real thing.

Which is also why this clown-shoe feels comfortable comparing his situation to a genuine persecution, and the vast majority of mainstream media is too scared to correct him.

The way she kicked off in that overbearing manner in the video is SO male.

Is Shwmi Chakrabati arguing that only white males should be in male prisons and everyone else should be in female prisons? Who the hell does she think she is...and she thinks she is at risk from racists?

As for IW, there is an Irish term for him, gibs***e. It definitely fits!

What the fuck is this constant comparison to racism and genocide theme? Disgusting.

Well that's interesting, India calling themselves a cis woman when we just heard the CEO of Stonewall say that no one is claiming there is no discernible difference between cis and trans women. And Kelley also saying she agrees humans cannot change their biological sex.

But India also thinks they have a cervix, so... 🤣

I think Shami is a proper lawyer, isn’t she. A few years ago she was at the WOW Talks speaking up for vulnerable women, and today, pardon my language, she’s shitting on them, from a great height. Anything to win the argument for her team? She’s certainly not the person I thought she was. Perhaps my judgement of character is not very good.

Speaking of Labour, an interesting tweet from yesterday that deserves a little press attention - https://twitter.com/gilbohouse/status/1461048215021793287

That comment that was made about being trapped on the lift, conflating racism with gender critical women fighting to keep rapists out of women's prison cells was just hyperbolic, obfuscating bullshit and she absolutely KNOWS it.
