I have no words. He was groped in a red dress in a bar once (btw doubt this very much).. oh yes that is exactly the same as 14 women being murdered for being women. I am raging.
I thought the same thing. How DARE he equate a grope in a bar (which, I agree, is probably only a fantasy in his own quagmire of imagination) with the senseless murder of those poor women. What an appalling narcissist.
I'm fairly apoplectic too at this state-sanctioned madness. "I couldn't believe that somebody would just … touch me like that. They felt they had the right to my body when they didn't."
Yeah mate, summed my feelings up about you very neatly. I can't believe you were conveniently unaware until you decided to fully commit to your woman face fetish. Your body is not a woman's body, your life is not a woman's life and your experience is not a woman's experience. You don't have the right to call yourself a woman, or weirdly and disturbingly 'just a girl'. Fucks sake.
Yet another one with a Twitter or other history of harassing or supporting and encouraging the harassment of women. No one does due diligence any longer?
Yes, which is why I struggle with this, as I have - and this is rapidly becoming 'had' - no issue with difference, or even a man liking to dress or act in the manner he wishes, and live their private life, until the point he is apeing what he thinks women are to the point he is demanding to access our lives, our spaces and our bodies. Destroying our boundaries. Glorifying it. Moving from the unknown, and happy to integrate with us all, to the front and centre look at me I'm an activist, bullying land grab. Land that others like me were born on and is our home and all we know. Reframing this as some civil rights fight. Reframing who is marginalised. Rewriting who is at risk. Rewriting history and all aspects of how our societies are structured to indulge his personal delusion and fetish. Ratcheting this up and further and further. Utterly denying the real lives, lived experiences and risk that we women (if we are lucky enough to be girls who get to be women) have to navigate in our actual lives. Not our 'head space pretendy' lives. Tipping up same-sex attraction to mean 'everyone must always find us attractive and allow us to do whatever we like to them or they're transracists'. They can say what they like, go where they like, do what and to whom they like. Be as violent and threatening as they like. Meanwhile women are murdered by men like them, with disturbingly similar views and hatred of women. And we must applaud this as 'brave'?
Yes, I am coming to understand Jennifer Bilek's refusal to interact with any of them, no matter if they are willing to state they are male or that they don't agree with gender ideology. There is something very creepy about the "best" of them.
Yeah ,I would doubt that ,too.Obviously he thinks he's more fanciable than he clearly is. He should take the blinkers off his eyes and look in the mirror !
This is the sad place I am in. I just don't believe any of what they say. They twist so much that who knows what is truth sprinkled in the look at me I'm so special. These are abusers. How you could compare a grope to mass murder is remarkable self-aggrandising illness. Anything awful that happens to us, or anyone vulnerable, it's happened to them worse. They're always more hurt, better victims, we need to protect them more. That he does this over the memory of murdered women on a day when the focus should be on them, their loss and their families and friends, is beyond callous and beyond sense. And that he has managed to gain such prominence in a women's organisation is indicative of how low we've sunk.
I used to regularly pass by a plaque on campus to commemorate those who died in another sadly famous tragedy in one city I studied in. It struck me how huge that event was, and how quietly it sat there. It was the undercurrent to many times in that place and we really must not forget. Despite the screaming of these fetishistic attention-seekers.
Perhaps if one learns nothing else from this, one can learn that people with serious mental illness are not to be indulged or coddled. I learned this years ago by associating with people who were mentally ill, and who usually had little recognition that anyone else existed (these were women). I was in my twenties when I learned what Graham has had to learn: people you thought were friends may not be trustworthy, they may be users, they may expect you to stand up for them and then vanish when you need help.
Thanks Susan. I weep about the commercialisation and businessification of mental health too! I don't think the absence of decent mental health care and the retreat of providers is unconnected to the growth in this. Mental health and illness also means anything now. We've normalised narcissism somehow in the name or under the guise of diversity. That does people with mental illness a disservice. I don't advocate hate and I don't advocate indulging fantasy.
I so agree. We don't need more drugs and terrible institutions, we need warm and comfortable places where people with problems can feel safe. And we need therapists who truly want to help others, not fall into any rabbit hole that may be available (such as trans).
But they do dare. It should be unbelievable, but it's very believable. And I hope everyone who sees this as the hateful insult it is to the women who were murdered, and to every woman who has been the victims of male violence, dares to oppose it with all the anger it deserves.
Beyond disgusting . Total shame to Canada. I used to think Canada would be a good country to emigrate to when I was younger . Not any more..Even worse than Scotland and I'll never forgive this Scottish Government for what they're doing to my country !!👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
I've always wanted to visit Nova Scotia, but not now. I will not give a cent of my money to Tranada. And that means not even visiting Campobello, which I have done a couple of times.
I was reading about one of the survivors then I read this. So a man who hates feminists (TERFs) was invited to speak at an event to commemorate the lives of women murdered by a man who hated feminists. Right, got it. What a simple message they appear to be sending us. No. Oh Canada what have you done.
I'd like to know what bright spark thought of it and how it happened. I was intrigued by Canada when I went and spent some happy hours discussing cultural differences ('Newfies' being a source of amusement for some and I didn't quite get the ways locals insulted or teased their friends). It was different, but familiar and I was made welcome. But I'm not sure I want to return and think the laws they keep passing are a mess. Not sure what the average citizen or person can do as all political parties seem captured.
Organizations captured too. I've spoken with several about violence against women and am sick to the stomach of hearing their initial responses of how men are also victims. All brainwashed and reading off the same script.
A Canadian wrote on Meghan Murphy's blog that she lived in a country where people valued nothing but money and got up every morning to count their grudges. Ouch!
Men who have been abused by their partners have organisations they can approach for help and support. Transwomen in the same position need to do likewise, they have to work hard to get it, the way women did years ago, and most of it independently. These people have enjoyed male privilege, and some of them are still using the same sense of entitlement to get what they want, regardless of the impact it makes on women.
Too angry. They don’t care. No empathy or understanding, just constant appropriation and insults. Apart from everything, this is bad for trans people. Attitudes are hardening and it will be difficult to go back. We will never accept this, never!
I cannot find a suitable word that shows the depth of my utter disgust and contempt for this act of disrespect for these murdered women. How dare they use this service as a trans platform. I can just imagine the stink if a biological female was asked to speak at a trans event. More proof, if any was needed of their contempt for women and how anything that is ours is being systematically erased.
There are really no depths to which these narcissists will not sink. Just when you think you have seen it all, something else comes along to kick you in the teeth.
I'm so angry right now that it's hard to even speak intelligently about it. Even more sick is this isn't the first time the École Polytechnique shooting memorial observance has been targeted by TIMs. I posted this in the comment section about Oolon but TIM Natalie Reed from Freethought Blogs planned a protest because the memorial wasn't inclusive enough for him.
Yes. It's like they just dedicate themselves to wearing us and the powers that be down. Ah 'Natalie' two-sets-of-genitals-as-one-just-isn't-enough-for-this-man-die-female-scum 'Reed'? Within a few years we've moved from giving restraining orders to violent threatening deluded mentally ill men, to 'centring' them and their friends as brave outspoken 'women'.
Libraries centre books not trans, how can that be? Schools centre pupils not trans, how can that be? Universities centre learning and knowledge, not trans, how can that be? Rape Crisis Centres centre women not trans, how can that be? The whole world is being forced to centre trans whatever the hell that means.
Ok AGP men, you had us all strung along for a while, we get it. But please, this is just a prank right? You could stop now? It's in very poor taste. What do you want other than our complete erasure and annihilation. Could the sane men please, please stand up, and join those others here like Graham who've been pilloried.
I had to scroll through A LOT of his Insta and there are 100s of AGP 'Felt cute' photos of him pretending to be coy, doing the head tile etc. Amusingly, he is HUGE. Well over 6 foot and built like a tank.
It's got so I havfe an aversion to the word "cute" as it is invariable applied to these AGP males with that annoying head tilt. I can tell anyone now, if they think that is what makes someone a woamn, then they haven't got a bloody clue (but we knew that already).
This is almost like one of those secret terf guerrilla actions, intended to expose how ludicrous the cult really is. But that would be going too far, nu?
I have no words. He was groped in a red dress in a bar once (btw doubt this very much).. oh yes that is exactly the same as 14 women being murdered for being women. I am raging.
I thought the same thing. How DARE he equate a grope in a bar (which, I agree, is probably only a fantasy in his own quagmire of imagination) with the senseless murder of those poor women. What an appalling narcissist.
Pretty sure "Groped in a red dress" is just one of the big lad's AGP fantasies.
I'm fairly apoplectic too at this state-sanctioned madness. "I couldn't believe that somebody would just … touch me like that. They felt they had the right to my body when they didn't."
Yeah mate, summed my feelings up about you very neatly. I can't believe you were conveniently unaware until you decided to fully commit to your woman face fetish.

Exactly, check for a head tilt and they’re on. Absolute grifters.
It's extraordinary to me. Men like him are the sort (fairly or unfairly) that our parents would steer us away from in public. Yet here we are.
Yes, which is why I struggle with this, as I have - and this is rapidly becoming 'had' - no issue with difference, or even a man liking to dress or act in the manner he wishes, and live their private life, until the point he is apeing what he thinks women are to the point he is demanding to access our lives, our spaces and our bodies.

Meanwhile women are murdered by men like them, with disturbingly similar views and hatred of women. And we must applaud this as 'brave'?
Brilliantly put. I would struggle to be civil to any of them now. I just see entitled mediocre (and that flatters most of them) attention seeking men.
Yes, I am coming to understand Jennifer Bilek's refusal to interact with any of them, no matter if they are willing to state they are male or that they don't agree with gender ideology. There is something very creepy about the "best" of them.
He’s a lesbian too! But of course he is.
Yeah ,I would doubt that ,too.Obviously he thinks he's more fanciable than he clearly is. He should take the blinkers off his eyes and look in the mirror !
These men must have some kind of magic mirrors. There's no other explanation - apart from mental illness of course........
I know! It’s the mirror from Snow White, only this time it’s happy to tell fibs.
Magic mirrors, of course! Ones they stole from the fun house near their homes.
No one groped him. He's so enormous he ran into someone, not quite the same thing as groping.
This is the sad place I am in. I just don't believe any of what they say. They twist so much that who knows what is truth sprinkled in the look at me I'm so special. These are abusers.

The disrespect shown to those women, who were murdered, is beyond words.
This is soul searing, and cruel.
How Dare they 😞
But they do dare. It should be unbelievable, but it's very believable. And I hope everyone who sees this as the hateful insult it is to the women who were murdered, and to every woman who has been the victims of male violence, dares to oppose it with all the anger it deserves.

Here here Susan - I feel the same
Me too. Scotland is a disgrace, especially with our 'femininst' 'leader'
I've always wanted to visit Nova Scotia, but not now. I will not give a cent of my money to Tranada. And that means not even visiting Campobello, which I have done a couple of times.

What a simple message they appear to be sending us. No. Oh Canada what have you done.
When you word it like that, the absurdity and audacity of it is truly staggering.
I think Canada is very captured right now, but the average citizen will not be going along with this nonsense. Just like here.
I'd like to know what bright spark thought of it and how it happened.

It really is contempt for women. What we expect from men like him. But for a so-called women's org to act in such a callous way is despicable.
It really is. I wonder what's in it for them?
I feel a bit sick after reading that. Canada you have sunk very low.
I felt sick writing it, Marionq. He is beyond contempt.
Thank you for wading knee-deep in this.
Much appreciated. Thank you for your kind words x
Absolutely, so many thanks. It's got to be depressing and distressing work.
🎶 Oh, Tranada... 🎵
How could they do this to those women's families!? It's hard to put into words just how abhorrent this is.
I’m genuinely really angry about this…
for fucks sake
This makes me feel physically sick.
Me too, Genderwang. Me too.
There are really no depths to which these narcissists will not sink. Just when you think you have seen it all, something else comes along to kick you in the teeth.
As a related aside, today, the BBC includes two men in its '100 Women' piece. Many of the actual women are Afghan: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-59514598

I thought you did a great job topping and tailing this piece . I sent it to a Canadian friend.
Thank you, Bob. That's much appreciated.
Ok AGP men, you had us all strung along for a while, we get it. But please, this is just a prank right? You could stop now? It's in very poor taste. What do you want other than our complete erasure and annihilation. Could the sane men please, please stand up, and join those others here like Graham who've been pilloried.
Jesus Christ. It’s that smug fucking face/head tilt that just winds me up even more. 🤬
I had to scroll through A LOT of his Insta and there are 100s of AGP 'Felt cute' photos of him pretending to be coy, doing the head tile etc. Amusingly, he is HUGE. Well over 6 foot and built like a tank.
You’ve got a stronger constitution than me, JL! But I thank you for your diligence.
Why is it that the giants feel like delicate little ladies? And the male-pattern baldness is the proverbial frosting on the trans cake.
It's got so I havfe an aversion to the word "cute" as it is invariable applied to these AGP males with that annoying head tilt. I can tell anyone now, if they think that is what makes someone a woamn, then they haven't got a bloody clue (but we knew that already).
Oh yes. That pathetic head tilt and simpering smile. Winds me up too.
This is almost like one of those secret terf guerrilla actions, intended to expose how ludicrous the cult really is. But that would be going too far, nu?
