I know. This session is such a slap in the face to all the women who are afraid to speak up because their job will be at risk if they are branded a 'bigot' for saying that sex matters.

The organisation running it say women are a "gender" which includes both male and female people. Organisations should not do anything to address the specific disadvantages experienced by female people (aka women) (or 'cis-women' as they call us)pic.twitter.com/22BP1lAUYm

And not a mention of sex. Sex as a category is obviously 'silo' thinking and therefore non productive. Who writes this misogynistic babble?

When they say "courageous conversations" they mean reeducating women to believe that they have privilege over men who identify with feminine gender norms, to "be accountable for our mistakes" (like recognising material reality & saying feminism is about women) and to "do better"pic.twitter.com/Ul7Y5klcTU

I just had a woman named Bronwyn tweet that exact list at me, white, heterosexual, middle class, able bodied, 'cis'.... plus the words 'privilege knapsack'... I objected to the use of 'cis' and she courageously blocked me.

They obviously think Age doesn't matter either... It also looks as if they think that you need to deal with all the world's injustices at the same time and do not need prioritisation.

This is a mission statement to tell females (or whatever name we have left to identify ourselves by) that we are less important in the hierarchy of oppression than trans. I’m guessing that there is more funding for this.

Sam not so keen to defend her org position today. She didn't bother answering Qs asked about FS position on 'gender balance' re political representation & stoney silence on your further pointstoday. Maybe she's scrabbling around looking for the 'courage' to engage with women?
