Was at a work party on Friday. One of my colleagues, whom I presumed to be very pro-trans activism, very cautiously and carefully asked if I'd seen Dave Chapelle's The Closer. 'Have I!' I cheered, and it all came out. Turned out we'd both been Team TERF all along, full-on agreement on everything gender critical, and yet careful not to mention it in case the other wasn't!
yes! Stella O'Malley told me everyone in east germany thought everyone else supported the Stasi. This lasted right until just before they were taken out
I still need to watch this. I'm currently trying to smoke and drink gender out of my life. Read "Trans" and it would be a great to force people to listen to the audio book. If i didnt hate everyone id throw and event with the audio playing because the vultures will never read it. They're going to bully and chant their chants for as long as its keeeeewl.
I find it easier to ask questions of HR policy e.g. what do you mean that everyone has a gender identity? Rather than saying 'i disagree for the following reasons'
I'm scared to wear even the gorgeous little ribbon and xx badges. Even though I agree 100% . 😔 On the plus side, I recently had a conversation with my son who lives in Brighton, and apparently has lots of trans friends. Despite him starting out saying 'but you don't understand, it's not like that', he did listen to my top concerns, ie self ID and irreversible damage to people's bodies. He wasn't aware of these, and conceded that they could lead to grave consequences. Of course, he already knows that I am no bigot.
Good idea Graham. I guess I am out all over the place but I’ll be honest I feel a little reticent to post personally on Facebook as much as I was as a couple of friends do love to jump on with the rhetoric and it gets so exhausting doesn’t it. And I know I’ve not been in it as long as some!
I work from home mostly for clients, my partner and house mates all have had the lectures and watched my argh moments. :D so I’m working on my village now, one person at a time
As a lecturer at a certain notorious university, this likely would not end well for me! Tell you what though, I'm buying lots of copies of Material Girls/Trans for relatives this Christmas.
Great books. I've got them both ( as well as some others related to the subject ) and bought them for some relatives as well but only for the ones I know are GC !!
Both good books. But talk to them about it, bring it up in group conversations, or they will never read it. STICK THEIR NOSE IN IT. The steaming pile of shit.
Any time I've seen gender related stories posted on neutral, non LGBTQ places, the overwhelming response is that gender critical is the norm. It is rational and sane. It doesn't require you to lie. And those who do defend trans stuff are usually laughed at or asked what the hell they're talking about.
The widespread institutional capture has a lot of people convinced that society at large is full-on TWAW etc, and while many who aren't immersed might initially think it's about just being kind, it doesn't take much scratching at the surface to uncover the hatred, homophobia, and misogyny.
"The many different groups lining up on this side of the debate will have different and expanding areas of focus, but the aspect common to us all is the fact sex is real, immutable, and mustn’t be conflated with, or replaced by, gender identity."
I am like billions worldwide a person who knows no human thinking can transcend biology.
To be honest all this trans business would be so hilarious if it didn't have so many serious repercussions
So from what ever angle you come from it "each one of you speak truth" Eph. 4:25
Men cannot become women...and gender is open to many interpretations.
I'm up for it although I am not knowingly connected to anyone I know on Twitter, and so it is no biggie. Can you provide us with a day's worth of pithy tweets?
As im self employed i cant do this with an employer but i would happily help out where I can - think we also need a Day of Reality unlike 'pro noun' day crap
As a 60 year old hetrosexual man here's a phrase I never imaginend saying ; I'm really looking fowards to coming out on the 19/12 . What a great idea .
I'm in awe of the likes of Lucy Masoud and others of her calibre .
Yay look forward to it although I think the posters up in my front windows might have already given the game away 👍
Me too. I've had mine up since the demonstration outside the Scottish parliament 2 months ago !! Don't think my area's very woke ,though !!

Bravo, Graham. I'm onboard.
ooh, we'll be in touch!

Good approach, they can’t explain it
Yes. They will stumble all over themselves. "Help me understand, i don't get it".
Why do we have a definition of intersex when that has nothing to do with gender identity?

I think better to do in actual workplace - that’s where it’s real- sounds like you’ve got that covered 😊

I might iron on the gorgeous Heretic badge I bought from the uber talented Jess de Wahls to celebrate!
Mine is on my handbag :)

Date noted. It was my best friend's birthday. I will do it for her.

#SexNotGender is my fave way of describing this, or "Sex Matters Day" - would certainly get some headlines
As im self employed i cant do this with an employer but i would happily help out where I can - think we also need a Day of Reality unlike 'pro noun' day crap
Day of Reality sounds good. Or a SexNotGender day
SexNot Gender day would be better . Nobody would know what Day of Reality meant ,as regards the subject matter.
Shocked to find out that Marie Curie charity is member of stonewall
