So. I wrote a book about modern fascism as a backlash to LGBTQ rights and women’s liberation. It breaks down why this happened, how we fight the new misogyny, and how we win.  You might find it useful.  amazon.com/Sexual-Revolut…

Women don’t owe the world children. They don’t owe men babies. And they don’t owe you an explanation.

A cause for national shame. This is the Rainbow Map for LGBTI+ rights across Europe. Until 2015, the UK was top. We've now collapsed down the rankings - and are the worst in Western Europe. We're now near Albania.

@al42696 Also it's not only right-wing people who care about this, left-wing feminists have been at the forefront of defending women's spaces, it's just that they have been generally let down by cowardly left-wing politicians

@PennyRed We always appreciate the updates on the state of the war you far left twats decided to declare on the rest of us. I have a question though. Is it still liberal tears if it's classical liberalists drinking them? You still seem to not understand the field of play.

May I take this opportunity to congratulate all the anti-wokers for winning their precious little culture war. Well done, guys, hope the liberal tears were worth it.

‘It was apparentlyinconceivable that violence against women could constitute a crisis – unless, of course, the violence was blamed on immigrants or on transgender people, at which point women’s safety suddenly shot to the top of the political agenda.’ #Echobox=1776064285" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@PennyRed @redfollowsred @Snow__Ape Hi, not trying to be rude or anything but if people around you are respecting pronouns its only to be polite, right? I'm sure all of them see you as a woman. You must know that surely? Even if polite to your face.

@PennyRed No liberal tears- just a wish for safety dignity and fairness for women and girls. How hard is that for you to understand?

@PennyRed Weren't you warned of the backlash & how pendulum always swings back? So you should be asking yourself whether it was worth it or not & whether you'd change anything if you could go back...

@redfollowsred @Snow__Ape Why? In the real world nobody cares. Everyone in my personal and professional life respects my pronouns and it’s just not a big deal. If anything, it’s getting easier for me to be non-binary, speaking personally at least. Find something else to fixate on.
