I'm loving it that the subject has taken root in the heavily traffic of AIBU, instead of staying hidden in feminist chat. Such an inspired move from the poster who got things going with the Helen S ban thread... that turned into threads. Everyone saw how much traction the topic could gain, how many people care, how many were interested but had been unaware, and how little support gender theory has when applied to our day to day lives and needs. Plus such great work going on by GC posters sharing information and videos and debunking myths.

There's one about Alex Sobel now too. I think a lot of MPs will be getting asked their views in a snappy question as a result.

Been brilliant watching it all unfold.

Yes, finally feels like we're turning the tide - a lot is owed to GL and the people who have risked a everything to fight this battle.

Definitely. Just sticking with it and refusing to give up, repeating themselves over and over. Researching, reading and disseminating information.

Just keep going! We have a long way to go still. BTW I am posting under every article in "The Times" or anywhere that I can post: "Repeal the GRA, remove "gender reassignment" as a protected characteristic, and make suitable changes to "hate crime" legislation to remove "transgender identity" or whatever is currently protected", and getting a lot of "likes". I also occasionally lighten it up with the "Loretta" scene from Monty Python's "Life of Brian". It is funny and it will always be funny because it is about insanity.... now where did I see that??

This gives me hope. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned - especially if they're a mum.
