@Heccles94 Dear X, This Eccles character is, of course, engagement farming. He's almost certainly monetising his constant stream of drivel. It's been fun but it's time for me to block. I'd advise others to do the same.

@graceelavery Those pesky spherical-Earthers still rehearsing the same arguments they made in 1519! What's the matter with 'em???

i’ve been off this platform for eighteen months until this week and the strange thing that’s hitting me is how the terfs are literally just rehearsing the same lines as they were when i first started using Twitter in 2018 or so. is there a shelf life on “can a woman have a penis”

@Heccles94 @IOWGreenParty When Joaquin Phoenix decides to do one of his comedy hoax characters he really gets stuck in!

Out leafleting to Get Greens Elected this May!

@ThePosieParker I've bumped into fellow GCs who fell for it. Who thought their worst fears were confirmed: the police were - through stupidity or worse - adding 'paedo' to the acronym of protected identities. She's still hawking this abject untruth:

We need to talk about @ThePosieParker. For some time she's accused the police of coming to see her because she was 'untoward about paedophiles'. This is not true. She admits it in a youtube video now deleted. The relevant clip: x.com/i/status/20353…

@ThePosieParker The police did not visit you because you were 'untoward to paedos'. This is a lie. In your own video you say 'To be fair, he probably got his words wrong'. What actually happened was he tried to say something like 'Don't imply X supports paedos' but it came out wrong. Stop lying

The United Kingdom is in a sinister, censorious state. I was invited to an interview with the police for the first time in 2017 for saying it’s wrong to castrate a 16 year old. Over the last few years, I’ve had a visit from the police for being “untoward about paedophiles”, been arrested for organising an outdoor political gathering during lockdown, and made a couple more trips to the police station for my speech. My primary role in life is that of a mother; I see this country through the lens of what we leave for our children. Yesterday, whilst in a taxi after listening to the extraordinary Noa Argamani speak, I saw an email from my son’s college. (In the UK, college/sixth form is compulsory for 16–18-year-olds.) The email was a sinister and viciously authoritarian punishment for wrongthink and speech. Had my son said women have penises and should be able to share rape crisis centres with other women, he would have been fine. He would not have been accused of being ideologically abhorrent (in writing) and given a permanent record to take with him into university or an apprenticeship. We, the adults, have created this environment for our children, and it is incumbent upon us to fight to stop it. These battles are high risk for our children; speaking freely can cost them friendships and opportunities. You must ensure your child is not suffering the harms of our societal neglect. There will be consequences for adults who think they can bully my son. Maybe they haven’t heard, but, especially when it comes to my children … I never lose.

@oncloud_e 'Obviously going for'. Have you seen man trans-identified males? How should we treat Alex? He calls himself a woman - is it obvious that's what he's attempting?

trans people don't want you to go out of your way to do anything for us btw. literally just believe us and treat us how you would anyone else of the gender we are obviously going for or leave us the hell alone

@TorenTYlfa @helenstaniland There are thousands of experiments in psychology (on perception/memory) which prove our 'truths' about our internal states don't always match reality. A man may well believe he is a woman ('true') It doesn't follow he is a woman, or that he should be treated as one.

Self‑ID isn’t a special rule for trans people @helenstaniland it’s just the basic principle that people are the primary source of truth about their own identity. When someone says they’re trans, they’re describing an internal experience only they can know. That’s not the same as making an external claim like “a billionaire is paying me,” which is something that can be verified or disproven. And the part that always gets missed: everyone already self-identifies. C1s people say “I’m a woman” or “I’m a man” without presenting chromosomes, medical records, or childhood documentation. We accept people’s identities in every other area of life religion, sexuality, culture, neuro divergence, names, pronouns, boundaries because the person living that experience is the one who knows it. Self‑ID simply applies that same standard to gender. It doesn’t erase biology, it doesn’t remove safeguards, and it doesn’t override material reality. It just recognises that gender identity isn’t something strangers can diagnose from the outside. Trans people aren’t asking for special treatment. They’re asking for the same recognition c1s people already receive without question. But of course I'm expecting you to still have a problem with this.

@Wakethefitup I didn't agree with much Corbyn said but recognised him as a sincere politician. I don't think Zack believes a single word that comes out of his mouth. He's as much in politics for public service as Trump is. Even if u agree with his script, do you really believe he's 'genuine'?

This guy speaks so much sense and he genuinely wants to help YOU, he's not at the whim of cronies & donors. Clearly the Tabloids will try and destroy him before the next general election...but don't believe their tripe, believe the GREEN hype...'cos it's on...it's genuinely ON!

@Aja1764741Aja @joshxhowie Imagine a lady brain exists (of course it doesn't). Imagine it ends up in a body which is 6" 4', has a hairy chest, a penis, a prostate and produces 100s ofmillions of sperm a day. What is this person? It's quite simple: he's a man.

@joshxhowie Trans women are women. To be treated equally. Men and women have an expectation that they'll be gendered correctly. Trans people should expect that too. Trans women were born with some male parts but fundamentally they are female. That is what their brain

I seem to be having a fun few days of public confrontation which no doubt someone will accuse me of making up. But in cafe two young women decked out in rainbows and dyed hair stood up to leave and informed me they overheard my conversation and LGB Alliance are a transphobic organisation. I asked why she thinks that? She said they’re trying to take away trans rights. I asked her to name an example of just one trans right they were taking away. And they both blustered and I asked again and they stormed off. I might stay at home for a few days.

@ThePosieParker @GSpellchecker You really have to look at the 'point' of the joke. It wasn't Jews are too rich, or mean, or control the world. It was the bathos of the term 'post-it'. That's really it. That's the joke.

@GSpellchecker Innocent joke? In this climate? About Jews? You sure about that?

TLDR: Leona is outraged about an innocent joke.

@jo_bartosch @RichardDawkins For girls/young women it's the latest iteration of whatever drove anorexia/bulemia/self-harming. I don't think pornography is a factor for them.

@RichardDawkins I don’t think it will until we tackle pornography, which is the vector & fuel for this mind virus.

This social contagion memidemic has run its course and will soon fade into history. Except, unlike other playground crazes (yo-yos, jacks, hula-hoops, marbles) this one will never fade for those unfortunate children irreversibly damaged by chemical or even surgical mutilation skeptic.com/article/transg…

@AlessandraAster @Averyflash Ever noticed how trans (for women) maps perfectly to anorexia and bulemia. Young women taking out their psychological distress on their bodies. Stopping the process of puberty. Encouragment from peers. Trans is just the latest iteration of whatever drove these other contagions.

@Averyflash No it is not because it does not start from teenagers. Cults are not social contagion.

I am so sick of people repeating this bullshit. This is not a social trend. It is embedded in the law.

@CatherineRobil6 @DingsdaleJ95299 @RosieDuffield1 @Sarah_zee123 @EmmaBatemanGPW Also worth noting: even an institution breaking the EA isn't committing a criminal offence. They may end up in an industrial tribunal or there could be a civil case, but the police won't be involved (unless it's not providing disabled people certain transport services)

@CatherineRobil6 @DingsdaleJ95299 @RosieDuffield1 @Sarah_zee123 @EmmaBatemanGPW The Sexual Offences Act 2003 does not make it a crime for a man to simply go into the ladies'. Equalities Act gives eg offices the right to not allow men going to the ladies', but doesn't criminalise a man going against an institution's wishes.

Reading together is one of the most powerful things we can do for our children. Great to speak at @Booktrust’s #ReadingRights summit about our Best Start Family hubs, where families will be able to come together and discover a love of reading from the earliest years📚

@oliviakrolczyk_ Do you believe there is such a thing as a heterosexual child? Is your belief that children don't have any sexual interest until their 18th birthday? Or that it's only homosexual children that don't exist?

Children should not be gay. They shouldn’t even know what gay is.

@DingsdaleJ95299 @CatherineRobil6 @RosieDuffield1 @Sarah_zee123 @EmmaBatemanGPW Yes! If they allow it. To comply they have to make it know that men aren't allowed in the ladies'. If a man barges his way in, the org has no special powers to get him out. They can't do a citizens' arrest as the man has committed no crime. They have to rely on trespass.

@mch6 @CatherineRobil6 @RosieDuffield1 @Sarah_zee123 @EmmaBatemanGPW But if the org allows men into female spaces they are breaking EA.

@DingsdaleJ95299 @CatherineRobil6 @RosieDuffield1 @Sarah_zee123 @EmmaBatemanGPW The EA is aimed at providers, not individual users. They can choose to have female-only spaces. But if an errant man goes to the ladies, EA says nothing about his behaviour afaik. The org can call the police for trespass, but the man has not committed a crime.

@mch6 @CatherineRobil6 @RosieDuffield1 @Sarah_zee123 @EmmaBatemanGPW The Equality Act gives places the right to have female spaces. If they choose to do so, they have to be female only, as SC confirmed.
