@NothingIsArt Well done! Breast-milk (dairy) products come from grieving mothers!

@TEDTalks @VjosaOsmaniPRKS Yes to Lia/Will Thomas, but no to Nancy Hogshead? This is not a “progressive”/conservative issue: I have always voted Democrat. Are you funded by the right, with the intent of further dividing the so-called left with gender lunacy? It’s working!

@KQED This is why I’m a former KQED supporter & listener. Your framing is anything but objective: it’s about keeping girls’ sports for girls. Why are you so sexist? What do you have against girls having their own things, regardless of some boys’ feelings?

Public comments at CIF meetings were once dominated by those opposed to transgender students’ participation in girls' sports. A coalition of families and advocates is pushing back. kqed.org/news/12081357/…

@SheldrickTrust Heroes!

One minute to save a kudu’s life. During a targeted patrol, our SWT/KWS Anti-Poaching Team found four medium-game snares, and then a fifth, tethered to a tree, with its quarry still alive. The wire had wrapped around the kudu’s horns and face, tightening with each attempt to pull free. Every minute mattered. The team alerted Kaluku Headquarters and a plan was hatched. One that would involve lassoing the kudu and then quickly cutting away the wire. For this kudu, our team’s patrol made the difference between life and death, and because of the snares collected that day, other lives were spared, too.

@_bezpilotnik @runthinkwrite @UniofOxford Peter Mitchell, you’re running for office? As a Green Party candidate? What happened to focusing on the climate crisis? How did the Green Party become the party of regressive sexists? Are you a secret operative paid by Big Oil? I’m serious. What has happened to the Greens?

@runthinkwrite @UniofOxford In what possible sense is this person committing sexual harassment? By existing?

Here's a story that will tell you a bit about @UniofOxford (and a bit about me). When I was an undergraduate in the 80's I had a girlfriend, who I will call C, who was not at my college (Trinity) and not on my course (PPE). Her college and her course had an eminent, youngish, left wing don, with a significant profile and a feminist-friendly reputation. But he was a bit of a drunk, and quite bit of a lecher, who made C feel uncomfortable, in the days when that meant something. C, being C, a socialist feminist, decided to do something about this, and put the word out that she wanted to do something. C arranged a meeting and *every single female undergraduate on that course in the whole college* - some twenty people- turned up. They reported the same sorts of behaviour conducted in private: drunk tutorials, inappropriate remarks, sitting down, too close, to individual student on the sofa, leering, organizing one to one tutorials, with the female students but not the males, oversharing about his private life, all the actions you can imagine. Every single woman knew what he was like, every woman objected, despite the fact that many of them had applied to that particular college because of their respect for him. By acting, C broke the spell. They arranged to see the head of the College. All of them, every single female student studying X at college Y. The head of the college had to act, and an unsatisfactory Oxford compromise ensued. The don in question was relieved of all undergraduate teaching and moved to a graduate only college. He wasn't dismissed, and there was no publicity. But I remain full of admiration for C. Sexual harassment at Oxford is not new - and this 👇is sexual harassment. Some clever men in positions of authority engage in this sort of action with impunity, particularly putting female students on edge, even when their behaviour is otherwise formally correct. It takes great courage to call them out, especially for female undergraduate students . But maybe, when you do, you will find that lots of female students feel the same.

@KDansky Also called Councilmember Willett’s assistant, Anne Williamson (816-513-6505), to thank the councilmember for his support, & the KC airport police to thank them for taking it seriously (816-243-5175). Encourage others to do the same.

"All gender" (i.e., mixed-sex) public toilets are NOT safe for women and girls. End this now.

@KDansky Call Kansas City Mayor Lucas’s office! I just did & spoke with a very nice woman at the city’s 311 office: (816) 513-3500. Let Kansas City know that people are paying attention!

@Glinner Disgusting man. “Pleasuring the animal” says it all about how vile he is.

Still can't believe this is real.

@XAVIAERD @benshapiro @SNS_Anon Vile man.

@benshapiro @SNS_Anon Friendly reminder that Hasan’s uncle Cenk wants to legalize bestiality

That's a lie. But hey, if you curse a lot, maybe people won't notice that you promote stealing, murder, terrorism, and communism from your multimillion dollar mansion while zapping your dog.

@MrMennoTweets Mr. Menno, you are a gem & I’m so sorry for what you went through. Thank you for your dedication, pizzazz, & honesty.

Ah ok yeah a lot can get mixed up in one post For me 2019 was also the year I went “Huh???” and since then a running theme I see is how so much of ‘trans’ revolves around stereotypes - either reinforcing them or trying to escape from them (I don’t know anything about your child who’s reaching for a ‘NB’ identity but I’m guessing this plays a role for them. Using ‘them’ here in a neutral sense, not the NB affirming sense 😆😉) My thing is therefore (well, one of my things): can we please broaden the bandwidth of man so fewer feel the need to jump ship or ‘identify’ away from being a man. Can we get rid of the straightjackets 🚮 You use the word gentleness, and JKR also mentioned her friend being gentle. While gentleness might make them different from other men, it makes them no less of a man. Sure, it’s not stereotypically ‘masculine’, but going another step further and saying it’s ’female-coded’ to me brings us back to those sexist stereotypes I’m so keen to dismantle, not (perhaps inadvertently) uphold I was that gentle kid. I got bullied relentlessly for it, particularly when I was 7-9. These are young formative years and it’s made a huge impact, more than I’d like to admit. During my teens I kept getting told I should’ve been born a girl, that I “wanted to be a woman.” In my twenties I kept getting cast as a ‘transsexual’. It was traumatising in those early years, confusing in my teens and twenties, and I am so glad I was born in the 70s and never got caught up in the medical side of things for I think I would’ve been sucked into it. Being gentle also often means being more impressionable and eager to please So my general message to the masses is: let boys and men be gentle. Don’t think of it as making them ‘female-coded.’ They should have as wide a scope to be gentle as women and girls without being thought of as less of a man. Reclaim these ‘transwomen’ stories as men’s stories so they may inform us on the societal pressures on men to conform to certain masculine ideas and the lengths they’ll go to to escape them And imagine if boys and men allowed themselves to be gentle, how much better their mental health would be, how much anger and violence (particularly against women and girls) could be avoided, how there’d be lesser ‘toxic masculinity’. Ok maybe that’s a bit idealistic but I live in hope 🤞 So here’s to the gentle men, so that there may be more gentlemen

I deleted that post because I can’t be arsed with the TERF wars on pronouns and all the shit that inevitably rains down on any woman voicing “wrong think” opinions. As I’ve been saying for years when even JKR isn’t pure enough for them, they need a rethink.

@mara_yamauchi Reported.

This account is impersonating me. Please report it.

@kinsellawarren I think you’d care if you were a women who knows what it’s like to be afraid of men because of their greater size, strength, & propensity toward violence. You might care.

This woman is a telegenic loon. People are worried about affordability, housing, crime. She wants to talk about bathrooms. #bcpoli

@levisgranfondo Thank you for removing Cole/Chloe Sprague from the women’s race! He can compete with men, like every other man.

In 200 days, the excitement of live racing returns to US soil, and we’re broadening coverage, awarding more routes, and building an even bigger festival. Sonoma County’s roads are calling. Pick up. levisgranfondo.com

@UniofOxford I’d like to see Oxford without men in womanface.

@UniofOxford Why do you allow men in womanface at your university?

NEW: Oxford tops QS World University Rankings in four subjects and is top overall in humanities. This makes it the UK university with the most courses ranked top in the world. Find out more ⬇️ bit.ly/4syNfxF

@PatrickLenton My goal is for men to stay in the their own lane: out of women’s spaces & sports. You can welcome those “special” men into your spaces & sports.

its been truly disgusting watching the witch hunt against Dr Upton move over to Australia. The goal of terfs is clearly to drive trans people out of public life and stop them being able to work in their professional fields and have basic privacy.

@star_observer He’s a man who wanted to see women undress. What else you lying about?

Dr Beth Upton, a trans UK doctor cleared of any wrongdoing in a high-profile case has began working in Australia - with personal details published sensationally by media in Australia, and calls by conservative groups for her to lose her job. starobserver.com.au/news/dr-beth-u…

@Scott_Wiener Don’t know anything about Nick Shirley, but I do know that you’ve put men in women’s prisons & that you make it very, very hard for me to remain a registered Democrat.

Nah, not President. But Congress, yes. And Nick Shirley is definitely a psycho scam artist.

@JaneCaro Are you a right-wing plant, sent to further divide the left? So diabolical.

Transphobia is absolutely anti-feminist. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@jessicatighe Well done!
