@adamndsmith Do you ever stop and ask yourself “actually, why AM I so determined to facilitate the demands of male people who really really want to punch female people in the face for ‘sport’?” 🤔
English

Even after all these years I still can’t quite believe it’s happening or that we’re routinely (and often aggressively) told that it’s progressive / left wing.

When you think about it, it’s absolutely insane that there has been a decade long fight in multiple countries around the world about whether men should be legally included in the category of women, and women who say no are actively punished by the men.

@Reuters Come on, Reuters. You’re supposed to be better than this.

More than 80 human rights and sport advocacy groups have called on the International Olympic Committee to abandon reported plans to introduce universal genetic sex testing for female athletes and impose a blanket ban on transgender and intersex competitors reut.rs/4lCdwsa

Gender conservatives believe little boys shouldn’t be allowed to play with dolls
Gender ideologues believe little boys who play with dolls should be castrated
Terfs believe little boys who play with dolls are perfect just the way they are

Hardly surprising. The TERFs are gender conservatives. Rowling’s pal Baroness Nicholson was sponsor on the bill to restrict abortions to below 12 weeks. They hate people having bodily autonomy and freedom to look and dress how they like.

@ScotNational @BrawnJourno It was a reason but was it really a key reason?
English

Why did the assisted dying bill fail? 🤔
A key reason comes down to the division of powers between Westminster and Holyrood. Political reporter @BrawnJourno explains

@FrauBluchar Some of them are very scared, and some are very scarred. We’re picking through a rubble of grief and fear. I just think the promised path of painlessness through that isn’t as simple or (importantly) risk-free for others as sone people desperately and understandably want it to be

@FlintSpark I don’t think the concerns about it are scaremongering at all. If you create opportunity for coercion or exploitation of the vulnerable, people will take it, for a whole range of reasons.
English

@serialsockthief The circumstances of a tiny number of people? You really are tone deaf. This scaremongering is ridiculous

@meljomur I would like there to be a way to provide that choice in a safe way, but I don’t currently think it exists.
English

@serialsockthief So you don’t believe the terminally ill person should have the choice?
English

@sergio75035352 No, but I’d ask them the same question but provide more detail and see if you get the same results. I technically support the AD concept, I just can’t support any of the legislative mechanisms we’ve seen so far.
English

@serialsockthief 79% of voters support ad. Are you saying they are wrong
English

@meljomur So many things. The potential for all sorts of awful coercion, the potential for scope creep, the impact on healthcare workers, hospices and the NHS more generally. I don’t think it’s possible to construct this legislation in a way that keeps people safe, mostly.
