Hi Graham, while everything that you've said is true about the misogynist abuse gender critical women get being generally worse than what is dished out to men, you've taken more than your share for standing up to this nonsense and it's appreciated.
Well, I don’t really want to get into this, but he backed up his friend, and Arty was backing up his friends, and they’ve both agreed that Arty was wrong in what he said about radical feminists. If you’re waiting for everyone to be perfect we’ll have a very small movement here. This is how left and feminist groups so often splinter - if you really feel that Graham is totally self motivated (and if so he’s got a funny way of going about it) maybe don’t bother following or watching his stuff. There are other groups out there.
We all know its my fault that the males are selfserving and think this movement is about their friend group. Its of course my fault Arty was finally honest. Then sat there seething because his mask fell off and people called him out. Hes has a penis and can do no wrong. We ought to give him power so that he can further fail upward and fuck things up.
LOL. Ok, my grandpa supports the KKK and i like him therefore hes fine and gets a pass. In fact, ive made him head of race relations. No issue there, just ignore his racist comments, he doesnt really mean them. The rape on his record is nothing, we all know a male isnt resposible for rape when hes drunk. Be kind and get over it.
You sound like a female, too bad so many are desperate.
Or ill ridicule who ever deserves it. Hes using women to end this so he can get back to life with the rest of the gimmicks.
I think it is true that men are treated differently by trolls mainly because those trolls are men who hate and resent women plus of course those sad women who want to be on their side. However men don’t usually step forward in large numbers to support other men the way the sisterhood does. This last year has been a revelation to me as I’ve stood at protests for the first time in decades alongside women of all ages and types and some men. The sheer scale of the attacks on women from Marion Millar through those persecuted in universities of all places and prisons and rape centres cannot be ignored. I am so proud of the fight back. For every label of hateful bigot I would hail 100 brave women who can take that on the chin and move onwards and upwards. We are winning this - us, the little people of Terf Island - we’ll send support and courage to those struggling in the US, Canada, Ireland , Spain and the rest.
Yes, it was great that women gathered in D.C. on 1 December, but I'm so crippled I can't even make it to Boston. And I'm still searching for a way to try to find other radical feminists in Maine.
I know it's just a little thing, but ever since the Wi Spa incident and the Loudon County rape, I have heard a lot less "ooh, the poor oppressed trans" crap on local TV news or even national TV programming. How about you?
I dont watch TV unless im forced to. Didnt even touch it durring the pandemic. Great that youre observing this. It needs to happen. The wankers are not brave or beautiful. I feel sorry for children afraid of clowns.
I’ll be ‘coming out’ on Dec 19. Anyone who hates me has already left the building - lol! Not all my family want to get involved in this war, but they’re made of sterner stuff than the hothouse flowers which disappear at the first hint of unideal conditions. My two sisters are fully on board with me, though. It’s great to be older and go full battleaxe, and not give a feck 😄
Yes, it's definitely time to make a stand on this. I have tried to explain to family and friends but they laugh it off and say they don't have a problem with it. There's also a chronic divide in Scotland where if you question the Party and their opacity then you can't be Scottish! I'm putting together something to post online before the 19th of Dec and hope it will at least change one person's mind even if it hardens others. I've been researching this religion for a year now and trying to work out the agenda. It's a heartbreaking and shocking realisation. Thank you for collating so much information and enabling access to some very sober and brilliant articles which I will be forwarding. There is so much bravery and humour in these posts and threads and they are a powerful tonic.
I'm out anonymously on Twitter and Youtube comments but not on FB. I find having the anonymous account really helps release a lot of anger and frustration that wasn't able to go anywhere before, as well as connect with great people in this fight on twitter and support everyone that needs it. I highly recommend making a fake account to anyone reading this who hasn't yet. I just make sure I am careful about how much I share about myself in it so no one spying can connect me to who I am in real life.
I second this! I have done the same. I'm out, under my real name on Facebook. Finally made a Twitter about 2 months ago and Im anonymous there. It's helped me connect with lots of other amazing GC and to let out a lot of anger and frustration about the oppression we are facing through this ideological gender cult. Solidarity
Nice one! I am not really out on FB but I am no longer paranoid about it, as in too afraid to like public posts that are GC on fb. I used to be. But now I feel stronger about it. Like, come on, I dare someone to try and lynch me again..!
Yes, the vitriol and shaming is overwhelmingly directed at women, just for daring to speak up. The sad thing is that many women on-line are also guilty of those vile insults.
As for Keir Starmer, I suspect he identifies as a man so maybe it's time he grew some.
Is this who is attending uni at the moment? I never thought I would feel so sorry as I do now. I have a 17 year old on his way next year. How will he stay grounded in reality if surrounded with such nonsensical collegues? Maybe rethink and get a trade? Some how it feels like the ivory tower breeds this type of unrealistic thinking ( or non-thinking). 😔
I don't know what's happening in UK universities -- except for the news regarding Stock, etc -- but here in the U.S. there has been a systemic pruning of serious thinking in academia. I just read about a man who was a professor emeritus at Massachusetts Institute of Technology who lost his emeritus position because he spoke truthfully about the poison gas attacks in Syria (he's also been horribly harassed). The powers-that-be did not want the 1960s to occur again, a time when many people in universities were radical thinkers.
Just see how the Durham University students responded to Rod Liddle's after-dinner speech this weekend (walking out etc) -- "we are here on campus to feel safe" -- !!!!
Jesus, I could only listen to 10 mins of that video (thanks for posting). These people are morons but far more worrying from one of them, is the oft repeated trope - puberty blockers are reversible and no harm is done.
I genuinely hope these young women don't find out the hard way that transwomen are in fact men.
Worth watching the last couple of mins though. The journalists summing up of his report was spot on. You'd never know from his interviewing approach but he was very angry.
I know what you mean! If I had to listen to the blue-haired baldy one more minute I was going to scream! And I actually hope that they do find out the hard way -- it will be the only way to get through to them -- that TIMs are MALE.
It was pitiful seeing those young female students floundering helplessly when asked to interpret and explain concepts they claim to believe in and support. Anyone who invests in this ideology doesn't have much option other than to take this view. If they don't, they risk looking into it and seeing what's there, a lot of flimsy, incoherent, half baked, half thought ideas enveloping a core of ancient, resilient misogyny.
Not looking too deeply can mean you don't have to worry that the bullies will come after you. They'll leave you alone if you parrot delusion and be kind; kindness that means not thinking about consequences, and allowing yourself to be 'educated' into unthinking compliance. Gender and gender identity can be anything - anything that facilitates narcissistic fantasy or maybe coveres up bewilderment, turmoil and distress that will be left to get worse.
It seems to have started to crumble, and even if this ideology is being kept aloft by people with unlimited resources, once all the lights go on and the larger majority sees what's around them and reacts, only despotism will keep it there. I'm sure there's enough misogyny for that to happen, but there are a lot of women who are prepared to resist and confront it again and again. Eventually, I hope that'll include these two students.
Yes that whole 'educate', 'educate yourself' and much worse 're-educate' language is one of the most terrifying things to come out of this. Totalitarianism at work.
As someone who has spent my entire life trying to educate myself & others, I find it particularly annoying that no-nothings use “educate yourself” to mean “I can’t counter your points but I want you to agree with me anyway.”
Me too! And I think it is particularly sad that parents feel they need to be 'educated' by their indoctrinated teenagers. The word 'educate' means 'to bring up'!!! Role reversal! 😞
It's not just the TRA loons is it - when you look at Marion Millar and Ceri Black, it's also the police. I'm tempted to come out but it wouldn't be hard to find my email and address on line so think I'm going to hold fire for now. I'm out on some sites and have signed petitions etc but twitter feels like a walking a tightrope over a cess pit.
That video is wild. So, so depressing. The only thing I would say, is that most of us Terfs are from the LEFT, not right, or even centre. We have no political home.
Actually I am small-c conservative and not ashamed of it; not political though. Not until recently! I have voted mainly Lib Dem and also Tory, never more LD though 😢
Just as Evergreen college grads have discovered that they are unofficially unemployable, I expect Sussex grads will have a hard time getting a job with that uni on their resumes. No one with a thought toward risk management will want these whiny, vindictive trash on the payroll.
I understand the interviewer's frustration, but he needs to understand the meaning of the word radical, which is to get to the root. These airheads are not radical, they're perhaps not even liberal, they're just brainwashed. A nearby farm has signs up that read "Farmers Against Fascism" and "Black Lives Matter," but the woman who put up the signs has no political awareness. This is the woke generation -- no political awareness of any meaning or depth, just sloganeering. I saw plenty of this in the 1960s because most people "masturbating in the streets" (to quote an acquaintance) had no analysis of what they were protesting. And what happens 50 years later? The American war in Vietnam was a mistake, they say, as they avoid even thinking about the wars that the U.S. has engaged in since Vietnam.

You're so right.
Then he backed up Arty implying that women are monsters. He only cares about getting his job back.
Well, I don’t really want to get into this, but he backed up his friend, and Arty was backing up his friends, and they’ve both agreed that Arty was wrong in what he said about radical feminists. If you’re waiting for everyone to be perfect we’ll have a very small movement here.

Very well put, thank you 👏👏👏

Indeed...
Youre right, of course its my fault that Arty was finally honest. Duh.
🤔The Pywife wonders why this feels like arguing with a TRA on Twitter. Then finally realises…
LOL. Ok, my grandpa supports the KKK and i like him therefore hes fine and gets a pass. In fact, ive made him head of race relations. No issue there, just ignore his racist comments, he doesnt really mean them. The rape on his record is nothing, we all know a male isnt resposible for rape when hes drunk. Be kind and get over it.

WE MUST SAVE THE WANKERS.

Should also mention I’ve seen Graham at them all! Thanks Graham.
Hallelujah for Terf Island, you guys can organize gather easily. The US is fucked.
Yes, it was great that women gathered in D.C. on 1 December, but I'm so crippled I can't even make it to Boston. And I'm still searching for a way to try to find other radical feminists in Maine.
Its unfortunate too because even once the UK turns tide the US will just virtue signal harder.

Yes! Why did battleaxe become an insult used against older women? I'm perfectly willing to be a battleaxe.
It’s the best! So much freedom 😄
The best thing about getting older!
Yes, it's definitely time to make a stand on this. I have tried to explain to family and friends but they laugh it off and say they don't have a problem with it.

I sent Helen Joyce’s book to my ceo plus posted the Nolan Investigates link on Linked in with a like - think a few other people have done this too.
Any ideas for Linked in as I don’t use Facebook or Twitter…. 🤔
You can follow sexmatters on LinkedIn
Have you read what's printed on the interviewer's sweatshirt? 😄
It's a Die Hard film reference but the students won't know that; they'll think it's a transphobic death threat.
Out and proud 🙋🏼♀️
