One last insult from Irish men

Dehumanised by priests and nuns throughout their lives and now, in death, dehumanised by the Church of gender identity. Commentators refer to the women of the Mother and Baby Homes as ‘people with a vagina’ and Colm O’Gorman calls anyone who objects ‘anti-trans’.

Can you not take one day off insulting women, Colm?

We touched on this erasure of women in our latest ‘Mess We’re In’ with Laoise from The Countess Didn’t Fight For This.

And remember that this erasing language is born of privilege.

American women can afford to refer to themselves as non-men. We can't. We're not even seen as humans here in Nigeria. We're still being sold like cattle, and sold to baby factories to breed like mares, we have no reproductive rights, period poverty is killing us

Trying to cut down on emails…

…so here they are in case you missed the latest Mess We’re In Podcast episodes.

Happy New Year

The Countess Didn’t fight for this

This is why the LGB Alliance exists

black women matter @cryptidterf

They literally never will

Great idea!

Great new resource from MK Fain and Sasha White. This is a (deliberately) intimidating debate and young feminists who need help finding their voice might start here.

Sasha and MK, will you come on ‘The Mess We’re In’ sometime?

“If you were raped by a transwoman you were not raped by a man”

the author of the post

♥️ @LabelFreeBrands

In a Facebook group for Women With PTSD: “If you were raped by a transwoman you were not raped by a man. Think of it as a strap on. Many women use them. Believe it or not, women rape too.” 😳

Perfecto

The original said ‘sex-based rights’, which was first used by the UN in 1979.

Do all women wear lipstick while running marathons? I guess they have to, because otherwise how would you know they’re women?

This is grooming

Good morning, just your daily reminder that queer theory + porn culture = a paedophile's dream

This is…well, you get the idea

You can object to them promoting the use of dangerous drugs here.

Biology Rules Ok @OkBiology

BBC3 are giving transactivists an uncritical platform to mislead children about the use of irreversible drugs. It's filmed by a transactivist and gives an uncritical platform to the outlawed Dr Wobberley & a man who bludgeons foxes to death. It'll be screened on January 26th.📺

WoLF @WomensLibFront

Why are news outlets who’ve made their bones reporting on previous medical scandals ignoring the sterilization of these children? Whether they’re LGB, autistic, or caught up in social contagions because they self-diagnosed from a YouTube overdose in a vulnerable moment?

Natwest joins the corporate attack on women and girls

Sarah has written them a fine letter here. “…it is difficult to see how ‘all’ protected characteristics can be ‘equally protected’ if you have already instituted ‘self ID’ in the workplace, or among your customers. Quite apart from any issues of increasing exposure to fraud and ID theft, this permits any man to claim he is a woman on his assertion alone. I can see no reference in this response to the nature or degree of consultation, if any, that was carried out with your female employees or your female customers about the impact of this policy on their ability to ‘bring their whole selves to work’ or be confident that their ‘physical, mental and emotional wellbeing’ is protected whilst on your premises.”

Sarah Phillimore @SVPhillimore

Astonishing submission from NatWest, bizarrely. #GRARG https://t.co/Eyn6HvMZDr

@MForstater @SVPhillimore @StuffNNonense @ALLIANCELGB @Baroness_Nichol @BluskyeAllison @en4ei Have you see this? Natwest's submission to WESC. Non-binary has never been tested under GR in court, has it? Only a ET? https://t.co/uGLrE4jQ8U

Una Mullally, another intellectual fraud

I got this from a subscriber.

“TENI (trans activist group in Ireland) held a zoom meeting, mainly for journalists, last Thurs. I joined out of curiosity. It went as follows: 'Here are the words you should avoid'. 'No debate'. 'Nothing about us without us'. The message in short was for journalists to suppress any good instinct they may have. Una Mullally, Irish Times, the headline act, trying to find a way to rationalize out of all problem areas. Men invading women's spaces = real issue is male violence. Men competing in women's sports = bigger issues with doping in sports etc. Detransitioners = some women regret abortion. LGB Alliance are not to be platformed or debated against.

Here’s a video and a reminder that these are the women Una Mullally finds so hateful that journalists must not speak to them. What kind of journalist does this? I suggest she is another one whose sunk costs are too high to ever back down from a dishonest position. Una Mullally, you are a fraud, and you and TENI owe these women an apology.

Danial still doing great work on the Webberleys

Danial Webb @DanialWebb

THREAD: A lot of my recent tweets about GenderGP have comments from people that think the Webberleys have moved their clinic to Spain. The truth is, unsurprisingly, a little more complex than that. Let me try and explain how the business works. 1/

'It's not the kind of thing that crosses my mind much' says a person talking about it apropos of nothing.

Amazing to see this actually written down

Rachel McKinnon’s employers have him sussed. ‘Complete lack of engagement, not even to justify lack of engagement’.

In other words “No debate? Why not?”

Emma Hilton @FondOfBeetles

@djunasaurus @rosegoldcoast @HJoyceGender @CroneInAMillion @Martina @Scienceofsport @PamSailors @fairplaywomen The chair of Ivy’s dept nails it. Completely lack of engagement with opposing arguments, not even to justify lack of engagement.

And finally…

How to eat ice cream properly.
