It's still pronouns day!
(via Tibby)
Meanwhile…
Just a reminder of what’s happening while privileged white Westerners make sure everyone’s getting their pronouns right.
Her name is #YasamanAryani one of the youngest women’s right activist in jail.
In this video she is committing two crimes at the same time:
1) Riding a bicycle
2)Being unveiled
Her mother #MonirehArabshahi is in jail as well for supporting her daughter.

“Got that, you uppity bitch?”
It’s NOT misogyny, says Owen. Good on you, Sall. (Here's my interview with Sall in case you missed it. She’s a pistol!)
Very welcome news
There is some confusion on social media about the involvement of @drmbrady and @HelenStokesLam in the review I am leading on gender identity services for children & young people. To clarify, neither of them have any formal role in the review process.
Brady believes there is such a thing as ‘trans children’ and is raising money for Mermaids. It’s a relief to know he doesn’t have anything to do with the Tavistock review, as Heather Brunskell-Evans thought was the case in our recent chat.
Get comfortable saying “No”
And stand up for others saying no.
From a FB group, this woman is in the US, getting bullied into displaying pronouns.

Sian, you rule
Shall I let you into another ‘transsexual’ secret Tom? The ‘neo-vagina’ the surgeon crafted from my meat-and-two-veg has to be dilated on a regular basis. Even now, 25 years later, otherwise it’ll close up. Why? Bio-effing-ology! But I’m too old for rumpy pumpy now ... 😈😉

This, indeed
This, oh this.

Leonora’s autistic son will have to avoid Norway
THIS IS INSANE. Like legislating that everyone is entitled to their own facts.
"Is misgendering violence? In a few days time Stortinget [Norway's parliament] will probably decide that misgendering is a criminal offence that can be punished by up to 3 years in prison."

The greased ravine
Twitter has banned someone for saying “only females get cervical cancer”.
It started with pronouns, to be kind. Next thing we knew, there’s men in the women’s prisons, & taking titles home from the women’s track meets, & women can’t talk plainly about cervical cancer. It’s not a slippery slope, it’s a greased ravine.
Channel 4 wants to ignore your emails.
They’ve had to do a boilerplate response. Keep sending them and I’ll republish the best ones on a dedicated part of the site!
Keep on rockin’, Rocktober
#Pronounsday isn't about kindness in one's absense or discussions online. It's compelled speech and compelled thought. It's emotional blackmail based on multiple lies. It's currently about silencing Women's Rights Activists. It's anti-science anti-woman religiosity. I say NO.
They don’t dare give a right to reply…
…because they know most people agree with us.
.@JohnRoss49 Did you offer Holly Lawford-Smith a right of reply before allowing this bloke free reign to malign her? You have misrepresented the details of her view, and quoted someone who also severely misrepresents it. She is pro trans rights and has many trans supporters.

What is interesting is that more are prepared to say these things out loud now.
What you read below is the ultimate end game of Queer Theory. By refusing to accept that children have reduced capacity to consent, you remove their protection.
Me/hole. Perfect.
This is a deliciously funny take on Pronoun Day https://youtu.be/Xetogrd3n4Y
