Or maybe you should ask yourself why left-leaning feminists and lesbians who've been in the women's lib movement longer than you've been alive have suddenly all become "bigots". Criticism is not harrassment. Disagreement is not hate.

This was the question that got me interested in gender-critical feminism. As a fairly disinterested bystander I vaguely wondered why so many veteran feminists had apparently (according to some acquaintances of mine) turned into raging bigots. Was it old age?..
-
..A bit mean isn't it, calling transwomen "men"? Oh no, hang on, what's that? LITERAL, fully intact men are claiming to LITERALLY be women in order to gain access to our rights, protections, spaces, platforms, sports?! I'm only embarrassed it took me so long to wake up to it.

so what is the material impact on peoples lives, any ideas ? Any imaginings ? Anything ? At all ?
-
i mean, what ? Do you mean solidarity only with people who coincide with my own bigotry ? Solidarity against 'transphobic feminists' ? Name one, just one please ? You must know the name of at least one ?
-
What do you think the material impact of constant harassment, threats and violence might be? For one thing suicide is a lot more prevalent among trans people.
-
Produce the stats in the UK to back up that claim and produce evidence that the cause of any actual suicide was anything other than mental health problems. Also produce evidence of threats of violence from genuine WRA. If you can’t do this please question your assertions.
-
you know that is not going to happen, it is propaganda, pure and simple...

I don't understand the use of 'harassment'. If you publicly tweet things that affect women, why would you not expect them to push back? It's not like women who hold the majority view of the UK aren't getting disproportionately attacked for said views. https://twitter.com/helenstaniland/status/1055128955894808577?s=21 …

Me, waiting for Laurie to respond to my thread with her own list of trans people who were physically attacked, threatened, sued, or hounded out of employment by radical feminists in 2018 :pic.twitter.com/RtRHHaTuRI

Imagine reading this tweet and not even taking a sec before going 'but what about what we face as transphobes!!!!'
-
Many women are affected by trans activism, not just ones you would consider transphobic. However, whenever anyone speaks out about these issues they get accused of harassment.
-
Because the way cis women are impacted by trans activism is in no way comparable to the way trans people are impacted by anti-trans rhetoric. Has any cis woman ever been murdered due to trans activism? The way trans people are murdered every day due to anti-trans stigma?

You might want to consider the victims of Dana Rivers.

'Together we stand divided we fall' Imagining the day there is unison amid women and cishet femme (specially those who are white+middle class) use their privilege to protect the minorities within our own

As a white middle class woman it’s my job to protect people who seek to remove my rights while telling me I’m getting my knickers in a twist over it? Well fuck me I’ll get right on that...
-
Sorry who is seeking to remove your rights?
-
Anyone born male that seeks to use female spaces and infiltrate female sports. My basic right to female only arenas - the same as a mans right to male only spaces.
-
What about my basic rights? Oh right I'm trans so as far as you're concerned I don't deserve any rights because I'm worthless and must only exist on the terms you set because my life can never matter as much as yours does. Just fucking say it, you want us done away with.
-
And your life matters just as much as mine - but not more than mine. Your rights matter as much as mine. But not more than mine. Let’s have a dialogue. But don’t say I hate you because I refuse to agree with you.
-
When did I say you were worthless? You are equal to me and I to you.
-
Your entire view of trans women is based on it.
