    Uni event cancelled because of safety fears. People tell me this is an issue where "there are extremists on both sides" There really aren't. One side wants to have a normal conversation about safeguarding children & balancing rights. And one side wants to stop that happeninghttps://twitter.com/RichardJGarside/status/1201766228806819841 …

    Shocking misogyny at @EdinburghUni "The organisers were told that there was going to be too hostile an environment to hold the event and... they couldn't guarantee the safety of speakers or attendees - most of whom would likely be women." https://www.scotsman.com/news/politics/scottish-schools-transgender-event-cancelled-amid-fears-for-speakers-safety-1-5055656 …

        Precisely. Even a question about definitions (what do you mean by woman, what do you mean by transwoman) is framed as extremist.

        This happened at GIDYVR as well. The organizers had to relocate us from SFU to the Pan Pacific because the security team at the Uni said that “on a scale of 1-10, the probability of violence was an 11.” Absolute nonsense. Misogynistic bullshit.

        Just the threats in itself doesn't alert media and politicians that perhaps we're not in the wrong here for speaking out?

        Bizzaire. Do this crowd and allies really want to ensure Trans kids (who could be, when older same sex attracted). Is this recruiting to convert LGB to a symbol of Hetrosexuality via medicalisation. What business r young peoples health to people who may have rejected own LGBness?

        School is no place for trans or gender issues. Leave kids alone to develop without adult damage.
