Some of these haven't even got make up on. MAKE AN EFFORT! 💩

I think my favourite has to be 'Beth Hannay'. She hasn't even trimmed his beard.

I mean, he hasn't even trimmed her beard.

Wait.. I mean to say... They hasn't even trimmed their beard. Sorry 'haven't'.

Still, a lovely scarf though... It suits his.. her... THEIR beard. (s)

FFS!

I feel more like throwing up. These violent men and their enablers make me fucking sick. Radfemspiraling replied to my comment on her site saying that there seem to be two kinds of people these days, the totally unhinged and the rest of us who spend our time trying to avoid the totally unhinged [my paraphrase]. Once again, why are our governments enabling and supporting these obviously criminally insane dudes?

Yes, first you feel repulsed then you get angry. I have a friend who is a prison officer. He has to deal with these low-lifes. His job gets harder all the time.

Most trans"women" nowadays are autogynaephiles so they have a sexual motivation for presenting as women and get aroused by eroding boundaries. Therefore, this group are actually already predatory because displaying their fetish in public and being allowed into the segregated spaces designed for the safety, privacy and dignity of women, girls and young children causes sexual arousal. The red flags are flying freely and people, who should know better, are ignoring them

When I did a search on the word "autogynaephile", I got this as definitiion:

"Autogynephilia* is defined as a male's propensity to be sexually aroused by the thought of himself as a female. It is the paraphilia that is theorized to underlie transvestism and some forms of male-to-female (MtF) transsexualism."

*I presume that "autogynaephile" and "autogynephilia" are the same thing.

The interesting thing is that that definition doesn't mention "gender" at all. The first link that comes up under the definition is this:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22005209/

It DOES mention "gender" but only in this context:

"Autogynephilia encompasses sexual arousal with cross-dressing and cross-gender expression that does not involve women's clothing per se."

I think the reason that the word "gender" is being played down here is to avoid association with transgenderism. After all, autogynephilia sounds a bit .... dodgy. It concerns sexual arousal. And that is the last thing that the unseen powers want to link with transgenderism.

Of course the real question is: Who are the unseen powers? It is clear that SOMEONE has the cards all nicely stacked in favour of this absurd artifical demographic.

men fancying themselves. What's new! Only the fact they are fancying themselves in a particular kind of clothing. Narcissism. Self adoration. Enchanted by their own image. Extreme vanity is psychopathic

I wonder all the time what it's going to take. How much harm men claiming to be trans are going to have to inflict before they are no longer indulged and defended? The crimes of most, if not all of these creatures will be described as having been committed by women. And those being tried for rape referred to as she/her.

It takes stratospheric levels of sadism and misogyny to instruct their victims to apply female pronouns to these disgusting men and others like them. A situation like that can't exist or be imposed unless the people responsible detest women. It simply wouldn't happen and no amount of pressure could make it happen. But when it's the reality at the most extreme end of violence, it's going happen at every level, as we see all the time.

Whether it's part of legislation or the attitudes of people with no obvious power beyond having a platform. A bit like those women authors written about on here yesterday. Trying to take the credibility away from a Muslim women writer and make her a hate figure. She didn't express any hatred, it all came from them and I hope that eventually they'll be haunted by their words. Trying to distance themselves from what they said but being unable to.

It's absurd an ideology, if it can be called that, that sees opinions and people as being either all good or all bad, can have so much success among those who don't believe themselves irrational or extremist. It's like a fucking mass, contagious psychosis.

The fact of these... these things being described as women is an utter insult to their victims primarily, but in the end it's an insult to all women. They spread their abuse on so many levels. Sheer evil to give in to it.

Radhwa Evans-Clare's avatar

It is an insult to their victims and one that is so likely to traumatise them further. The people responsible aren't only devoid of empathy, they're sadistic. They know they are doing harm to women who have been violated, and by extension, to all women.

It's unbelievably cruel, and every UK politician should be committed to addressing and ending this. Instead, far too many are dodging or bullshitting their way on questions about sex, or, worse case scenario, they're parroting the mantras.

I don’t think it will stop until a woman with prominent, powerful men in her life is harmed. The number of women and girls harmed, some fatally, does not appear to matter one iota. I don’t like this at all but right now I can’t see anything changing until a TIM picks the ‘wrong’ victim.

You should be wrong, but the typical response to crimes against women and children these men commit and are convicted for makes it clear that you're not. From threats of violence, to assault, rape and murder. And those who are convicted then serve their sentences in women's prisons, endangering more women.

As you say, none of this makes the impact expected, it doesn't even seem to matter. The concern here is for the perpetrators. The rights they have wrongly been given are paramount. Oh no! The 6ft tall bearded man with no history of dysphoria has been misgendered! And even if he does have a history of dysphoria and is transgender, so fucking what? He/she/they/them/those/that should not be anywhere near women.

How many acts that never happen has to happen before this stops? A mass killing? Serial rapes? Serial murders? Multiple female marital artists being seriously injured or killed in the ring? The 'wrong' victim.?

"I wonder all the time what it's going to take. How much harm men are going to have to inflict before they are no longer indulged and defended? " I deleted 4 words from this sentence because the problem is men and 'trans' are simply the advance party for a men's demands movement.

Dear God. Couldn't bear to read most of these ,makes me feel sick. How ANYONE who's not a rank misogynist could support this movement is completely mystifying to anyone with half a brain. Would love to show this ,and all the other horrors that have been exposed , to the SCOTTiSH PARLIAMENT and FORCE them to listen !! Every evil ,abusive and predatory man in the world is on the side. of this movement and that's so obvious. How can they not see it ? Thanks ,JL ,for this ,abhorrent though it is ♥️👍🙏

I will send a link to my governor's office and it will be ignored. I can't stand Republicans but I have to give them credit for the superb advertisement I saw this morning on TV. They ran a video that is apparently being shown to kindergarteners about gender being guessed at when a baby is born, and asked why children aren't being taught math, reading, and writing instead of this crap.

Part of the problem is that for a lot of people, if it never happens on the BBC (or equivalent trusted media outlet in other parts of the world) then it never happens. It's easy to forget how unadventurous people are when it comes to finding out what's going on in the world.

A suggestion. I think all public posts should be posted on your Twitter in the hope that some of your followers will share them. I post most of them to my Twitter and some to my Facebook but as a miserable bugger have very little reach.

Thank you so much for sharing, Paul. Important to get this stuff out there. Especially this piece, I think, which I intended to be something we can bust out whenever needed in response to the "most oppressed" brigade. I hope people find it useful in the debate. (Graham does sometimes post articles from the site to his social media accounts. Perhaps we could persuade him to post some of mine! 😉)

Just can't understand the gender-deluded - pointed out to someone in my family that she accepts and her husband accepts that he doesnt go into the female loos .... NOT because we think he's a rapist or anything but statistically he might be.... and ditto at the school ****where she works***** that he can't just go into the school without authorisation, let alone go into the girl's toilets. And this, she accepts.

So why, say I, do you allow men who say they are women and obviously are not to do so. 'Because I live in Brighton & Hove District and anyway I support Labour' ... ok she didn't say that. And she's a nice, caring person btw. She did say, 'you seem to have looked into this issue more than me' ....FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
