It's just like It's so obvious you only started caring about this shit now Regardless of the merits of the original point, you *wouldn't have said that* if you knew who won the prize in 2014 and if you generally followed the prize as a genuine interest of yours

This *constant fucking pattern* of TERFs suddenly discovering something *exists* as soon as a trans woman gets noticed for succeeding in it, and hastily moving in to defend their ancestral territory from invasion

Instead of insulting women and being an ignorant entitled man , how about you have a conversation with women why some things are a big fucking issue to women? But no fuck women who have their own spaces and sports and forums right. They aren't worthy of considered being human

The point is how obvious it is that terfs never cared about these things before, as demonstrated by their total lack of familiarity with them.

The point is your ignorance. Most "terfs" cared a huge number of women's issues and women's authors for decades. It's why we are pissed in the first place. This outlandish rethoric that we only do things out of alledged hate for trans people is ridiculous Stop lying

My ignorance? Terfs are the ones shocked and appalled about trans women in roller derby, which anyone NOT ignorant of roller derby has known has been explicitly trans inclusive for decades.

My ignorance... but y'all are the ones yelling about the content of a book winning a prize that has regularly gone to books with the same content many times in the past, which you were apparently ignorant of.

We have female sexed things in all areas because if we didn't women would get nothing like in most of human history. And the book is complete misogynist shite, i read it.

The book is not substantially different from another recent winner of the same prize, written by a cis woman. Which you would know about if you had ever cared about the prize prior to it becoming relevant to anti-trans political football.

Well, A Girl Is a Half Formed Thing and Detransition, Baby! are very different books with very different tones But the "disturbing sexual content" in the former is in fact way more disturbing

True, I should have specified "in regards to the material claimed as the cause of controversy for Detransition, Baby!" Claimed is an equally important caveat since the author is the actual cause for their objections.
