shirley you jest 💛🤍💜

@babybeginner Definition of *actual* Feminism: “A political movement, the goal of which is the liberation of the female sex class from the oppression of the male sex class.” The entire “trans” proposition ensures that there’s nowhere we can run from or be free of them ever again.

@macellaestrella @jk_rowling Yes, dsd’s are a thing. They have zero to do with women’s rights.

@jk_rowling Sex has been more complex than XX XY as far back as the Iron Age. They would have thought you were a twat as well.

The female sex class has specific needs and issues, and the job of addressing these needs and issues at a political level is almost always given to a female. When such a female chooses not to defend women’s rights, because it would endanger their own personal status, that is worthy of comment. Of course it’s true that many men are in thrall to gender ideology too, but by definition, being men, they’ve never needed the rights they now seek to dismantle. A woman, though - unless she’s been unusually sheltered from birth - knows from her own life experience how important those hard won rights are, because she’ll have benefited from them. If she then achieves the kind of power and/or economic security that mean she has no personal need for state-run single-sex spaces and services, but uses her platform to decree that women without her protections no longer need what she herself used and took for granted, she is guilty of a particularly egregious hypocrisy.

@inderXplorer @jk_rowling Males are not a tiny minority. People born with penises are the reason women need rights. There are no special penis-born people who are different from all the others in their sex class simply b/c they say so. 🙄

@jk_rowling It’s interesting how “protecting women” online almost always turns into endless outrage about a tiny minority instead of childcare, domestic violence funding, healthcare access, pay gaps, or housing insecurity.

@mariasieland13 @salltweets @piersmorgan People born with penises are not a minority; they are half the population. There’s no special subset of penis-born people when the only requirement to be special is to be born with a penis and a subjective claim. How utterly absurd.

@salltweets @piersmorgan What is really hard to understand is the fixation with the subject. Really. We are speaking of a minuscule minority, almost irrelevant in societies development. Trauma is the only explanation. If not, plane bigotry 🤷🏻‍♀️

If someone asks you “do you think women have penises?” and your immediate answer isn’t “hell no!” you will proceed to sound like a moron for refusing to answer something with only one obvious answer.

@free_equal “Gender” = “femininity”/“masculinity” and clothes DO have a gender. Clothes ARE gender. Clothes, however do NOT have a *sex*. Persons of either SEX (female/male) should be able to wear what like they like. This is *actual* feminism 101.

No one should be afraid to be themselves in public, including those who don’t conform to gender norms. Don’t you agree? #Nonbinary #GNC #StandUp4HumanRights

@Suzierizzo1 It’s *always* been like this. Older men are like a predatory bird’s claw in your back when you’re a young woman. It’s relentless and repulsive.

What is up lately with older men thinking that it’s okay for them to come up and try to hit on girls that are at least half or three times their age.They were telling him they didn’t want to talk to him,but he just wouldn’t take no for an answer and that’s a huge problem!

@amydiehl @MoiraDonegan Are you *really* this daft?

The requirement that women– not men–have their sex monitored, tested & proven legitimizes the distorted fantasy that men are trying to pass as women to win women’s sports competitions(why would they when female athletes are paid so much less?)@MoiraDonegan theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@DreyfusJames Well, when you redefine “woman” and “lesbian” to mean “anyone who “identifies” as one” (ergo the terms mean nothing), then “trans” “women” aren’t men, and having any one-sex only sexual orientation is bigotry.

Sorry, Ava Men can NEVER be lesbians. Ever.

@Jake_Solo_72 @SeekingGrace21 @cervixen Without men, there would be no men claiming to be women. You aren’t a thinker; you’re just a garden-variety MRA.

@SeekingGrace21 @cervixen Women are far more numerous and zealous advocates and flying monkeys for trans than men are and it’s not even close There’s “basest instincts” that explain too Too many sex-realist women deny the responsibility of women for trans Without women, trans wouldn’t last 5 minutes

What does a man's internal sense of himself in relation to gendered social constructs have to do with my innate, immutable sex? Why would anyone think my sex and his feelings about my sex are in the same category? Why would his feelings about the female sex that can only be derived from sexist social constructions, entitle him to associate himself with female citizens and enprivilege himself with access to female-only spaces and services? Why can none of the institutions professing a policy or law that deems some men to be women for 'reasons' capable of answering these questions or providing coherent reasons to actual women?

@DonkinFaith @TIME 👏🏼💯🎯

@TIME In a crowded field the cognitive dissonance required to simultaneously believe that letting men into the women's category has no impact on women and women's sports but excluding them is a huge upheaval that changes everything may be the most astonishing 🙄🧐

A new Olympic policy on genetic testing could reshape women’s sports and raise questions for intersex and cisgender athletes alike. time.com/article/2026/0…

@Menvillebecomes @holybullies @jk_rowling Nah. That’s genderism.

@holybullies @jk_rowling TERFs are profoundly sexist and profoundly misogynistic.

Today's ruling by the IOC means a welcome return to fair sport for women and girls, but I'll never forget the scandal of Paris 2024, when people who consider themselves supremely virtuous and progressive publicly cheered on men punching women.

@el_nagashi Most excellent. 💯

In the EU, we hardly ever speak of women anymore. Political parties—left, center, and also conservatives—have embraced gender self-ID without scrutiny or debate. Does this threaten women’s rights? Yes. And here I explain why.

@ritafromruncorn @sappholives83 😂😂😂

@sappholives83 What do I see? Two wonderful women who are simply enjoying being a woman. Fabulously beautiful 🤩 Rita xx

1. They’re not lesbians 2. Do they live in an alternate dimension where everyone is blind and deaf?

@richiepooooo @nickimoraa Nope. The people who perpetrate the crimes are 100% responsible.

If you tell women to change their behaviour to avoid being raped, what you’re really saying is, “make sure he rapes the other girl instead.” There will always be a woman who is more vulnerable less sober, less confident, with fewer friends around her, or walking alone in a darker part of town. She deserves to be safe just as much as I do. Safety shouldn’t depend on which woman was easier to target that night. The problem isn’t women’s behaviour. The problem is men who choose to commit rape as an act of violence.

@alfkkifine @EstrellaMalici2 The MRAs and NOT ALLs putting on a good show here. All to be expected.

Men often show profound cognitive dissonance when it comes to rape. Fathers will say they don’t want their daughters around boys because they “know what teenage boys are like,” yet many of those same men dismiss feminists and insist “not all men” are dangerous. Women are called paranoid for being cautious around men, but if something happens, we’re blamed for being naive or putting ourselves in a risky situation. If we refuse to go somewhere with a man because he might be dangerous, we’re accused of unfairly generalizing. If we do go and something happens, then it’s also our fault. Many men recognize the risk men pose to women but they only fully acknowledge it when it comes to their own daughters.

@A_New_Day_Dawns @alfkkifine Thx for proving her point.

@alfkkifine Yes, "know what teenage boys are like" means they're trying to bed every girl they meet. It has nothing to do with rape or any crime. It's about fathers who want their daughters to be good women and not the village bike. Try not being so poisonous.

@coochieprintz @hecheateddotorg @Brocklesnitch Not even remotely comparable.

@hecheateddotorg @Brocklesnitch This is like crying after finding out your roommate is a lesbian. It’s letting your prejudices color all your previous interactions. It’s bullshit and you and her can burn in Hell.

This bitch is mad because she became friends with a trans woman. Nothing bad happened, they were good friends, she just found out she was trans and is now going on this disgusting grifter culture war bullshit. Absolutely soulless and I hope your god punishes you

@MichaelGLFlood Nobody’s saying otherwise. Oh, wait — you’re attempting MAGIC! In your world, males/men (ALL pen*s-born ppl) who “identify” as “trans women” are somehow not male/boys/men when any and all pen*s-born people say so (and their word is final). That’s just patriarchy, dude. Same old.

Most men do not sexually assault women. When sexual assaults do occur, they are overwhelmingly perpetrated by men. 97 per cent of recorded sexual assault offenders are male New data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS): #summary-of-findings" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">abs.gov.au/articles/sexua…

@Marzipan1356921 @Belle_Jam_Jarr @nyaraV2 “Male-coded?” We’re saying they look male b/c they’re male. Saying that someone looks male is not the same thing as saying they look “masculine.” And there’s no such thing as a “transexual female” unless you’re referring to a female who’s trying to pass as male.

@jestdeserts @Belle_Jam_Jarr @nyaraV2 Yes, you always say how male-coded and caricature-like they are… when referring to trans women on the internet. Obviously not all since some are normal transsexual females.

@Marzipan1356921 @Belle_Jam_Jarr @nyaraV2 We TERFs aren’t saying that males who “identify” as women are “masculine”; we’re saying that they’re MALE. “Femininity”/“Masculinity” (“gender”) are sexist patriarchal social constructs and have f*ck all to do with what we’re saying.

@Belle_Jam_Jarr @nyaraV2 This is such a dummie thing to say. Because you TERFs constantly whine over how masculine internet trans women are. They’re the worst at conforming to standard femininity. You are being so nonsensical now.

@Belle_Jam_Jarr @Marzipan1356921 @nyaraV2 💯

You're really not getting it. Not even close! A feminist, or any woman with half a brain, doesn't give a flying fart about femininity. Femininity and masculinity are artifices that belong to the frameworks of sexism. The objection to trans women is that they're men trying to mask the fact that they're men with stuff they think flags 'femininity' - the colour pink, high heels, long hair, boobs or the semblance of boobs.
