I don’t argue on here because I enjoy it. I argue because watching bad takes go unchallenged is worse. Public services matter. Facts matter. And unfortunately, so does this hellsite.

UK TERF Helen Joyce Discredited by Australian Federal Court. “She has a PhD in mathematics, but does not have any formal education or qualifications even in biology, let alone in gender, sex or law" "She is not an expert at all. @IndiaWilloughby lucyfromnaarm.com/p/uk-terf-dr-h…

@FightWithMemes You mean men who are respected, responsible, healthy and emotionally available? Sounds like This Is Us, Parenthood, Modern Family, Friday Night Lights… Want more?

@RupertLowe10 If someone’s working a difficult, underpaid job while you’re online moaning about them, they’re not the problem. You are.

Why are so many taxi drivers entirely incapable of speaking English? Massively increased immigration spot checks are required, with FAR greater scrutiny on the licensing system and language testing. If they can't speak English, what are they doing in our country?

@JamesEsses Thanks for the unsolicited update on your personal prejudices. Noted and filed.

As soon as I spot pronouns in an email signature, I lose all respect for the sender.

@LozzaFox Are we just ignoring the whole Palestine thing? Good to know…

Genuine question @PoliceScotland @metpoliceuk … If Lucy Connolly was jailed for inciting hatred, why isn’t J.K. Rowling even cautioned? Is the law about what you say, or who you are?

But you’re missing the main point which is, if this person has committed a crime then yes she should be punished accordingly - including expulsion from women only areas. But to blanket ban every trans woman because of the actions of a few is wrong. Chinese woman robs a shop - all Chinese people banned from entering shops.

@MFSM2015 @RealistIdealis3 @KnownHeretic How much more force can a man, on average, punch with vs a woman? No need to argue when you can just solve the situation with a punch... You're ignoring the inherent physical differences between men and women with this argument.

Why don’t women want men in our bathrooms? 🤔

@stickersammler @Wokewaster Mainly because other people’s relationships are none of my business. I’m sure if there was some ‘criminal’ element it would have been dealt with by the police and he wouldn’t be president.

Something rather creepy about this

@JournalismSEEN @Telegraph @jk_rowling JK Rowling’s recent fame relies on conflict. Stephen Fry’s relies on talent, empathy, and decades of brilliance. Only one of them still adds value to the public conversation.

Picked up by @Telegraph He wouldn’t be on the front pages today if he weren’t talking about @jk_rowling She’s become the lightning conductor through which lesser celebrities now acquire media traction.

@KnownHeretic @BlahhhWow @RealistIdealis3 Sure, but that still comes down to behaviour. Safeguarding sets boundaries against actions, not identities. Exclusion should be based on what someone does, not who they are. Otherwise, it stops being safeguarding and starts being discrimination.

@MFSM2015 @BlahhhWow @RealistIdealis3 The entire purpose of safeguarding is to prevent and prohibit criminal behavior. We don’t wait for criminal acts first, we create boundaries to keep out unwanted behavior.

@BlahhhWow @RealistIdealis3 @KnownHeretic Exclusion of any person should be based on their behaviour.

@MFSM2015 @RealistIdealis3 @KnownHeretic Saying 'trans women' doesn't make the physical differences between men and women disappear, and you can't talk seriously about 'risk' in this context while ignoring that.

@RealistIdealis3 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic I think any exclusion should be based on behaviour of said person.

@MFSM2015 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic So, any male adult who states or thinks “I’m a woman”, or what are your criteria? Do you still think they should be individually risk assessed first?

@bitchloverwife @ZainAsh32301272 @darrengrimes Absolutely agree.

@MFSM2015 @ZainAsh32301272 @darrengrimes I work for the council. It’s terrible that people are still paying min wage but want qualified, experienced and registered care staff. Pay peanuts get monkeys.

@zhanx @KnownHeretic Feel free to see it that way. You’re wrong, but please do continue.

@dishonoured751 @RealistIdealis3 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic Trans women are. And I’m a woman.

@MFSM2015 @RealistIdealis3 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic Men are not a minority sir.

@RealistIdealis3 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic No. I think trans women should be allowed access to women’s restrooms.

@MFSM2015 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic You think men should be allowed access to women’s restrooms if they have been risk assessed first? Why?

@ScndChnceFrmVa @KnownHeretic Also, can you tell me exactly what crime was being committed?

@MFSM2015 @KnownHeretic She had a right to scream at a predator in the middle of his crime.

@RealistIdealis3 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic We’re talking about risk. Risk should be individual based on behaviour. Not just a sweeping judgement of a minority.

@MFSM2015 @BlahhhWow @KnownHeretic What kind of logic is this? Should we (as an example of your type of logic) also allow adults in children’s sports because children sometimes injure other children? Men should stay out of women’s spaces.

@ScndChnceFrmVa @KnownHeretic Where did you find she was a predator? Seems to me there was one person using the toilet and one person starting a fight…
