All of those things and then some have happened to me in the last month because of my film. But if I had backed down and crumbled to the trans activists, I'd deserve to be scorned for it. Cowardice is what empowers these people. Nothing will ever improve until people stop caving.

Endless death and rape threats, threats of loss of livelihood, employers targeted, physical harassment, family address posted online with picture of bomb-making manual aren't 'mean comments'. If you don't yet understand what happens to women who stand up on this issue, back off. twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/…

I respect the courage you've shown on this issue,

@jk_rowling

. But many people have simply caved to the demands of trans activists and completely surrendered truth and reality to them. The cowards are also villains in this story. They need to be held accountable.

Stop expecting women to fight these battles where men fear to tread. Traditionally, men protect women and children. That’s what is missing right now.

And your film did a good job exposing the incoherence of gender identity theory and some of the harms it's done. Many institutions I used to admire have uncritically embraced this dogma, but I reserve my ire for them rather than shouting 'coward' at individual women.

I read a tweet the other day: if you have to put “trans” in front of the word women, you aren’t a real woman…

So ask men to speak up then, woman are constantly threatened, harassed and abused, you really have no idea the length s we go to to protect our safety, men can speak up and nothing even remotely similar happens to them

Sorry Matt, but that’s easy for you to say. Your career is predicated on doing things like this. For you: More attention=more income. That calculus isn’t the same for most other people. Everyone has their own careers and lives and their calculations may be different.

There are regular people. Moms and Dads who have everything to lose also who are risking everything including their parental rights to fight for the truth and their children. Just because their income level is lower doesn’t mean they have less to lose.
