      RESIGNATION FROM @LGBTLD. In an ill-thought-through response to criticism that politicians were failing to engage, I inadvertently broke a promise I had made to @LGBTLD. This placed them in a difficult position. As a result I decided it was best for me to resign from @LGBTLD.

      Consider this. Are you on the side of masked people who seek to intimidate others through violence and threats of violence?

      There will always be extremists who, by definition, are outliers from the main bodies of opinion. It is not appropriate to suggest that the majority are all like the outliers.

      Except this is not an outlier Brian. There is no other movement that even comes close to trans activism in terms of misogyny & the harassment of women & violent threats to women. What tells you this is endemic is that no trans or LGBT org condemns it, despite it's pervasiveness>

      >the violence, as always, is coming from males, and supported by males, and ignored for the benefit of males. Don't pull a Trump 'it's both sides' nonsense with this. If you are geniunely attempting to understand the issue, then you need to understand the dangerous actuality.

      I do not accept that the majority of trans people are violent misogynists or that violence always comes from males. The latter because of personal experience of 30 years as a police officer and the former because of the many reasonable, thoughtful and kind trans people I've met.

          I didn't say that the majority of trans women are violent misogynists, no-one can know if that is the case. I said that violent misogyny is pervasive in trans activism, which it is, & - crucially - this is not challenged by organisations representing this community at all. So >

          >it's not an outlier, it's definitive of trans activism, & it's accepted by trans representatives. And it's trans women, i.e. males, who are perpetrating this. I really hope you understand that women live in a climate of *male* violence, not the other way around.

          I accept that most violence is male violence.

          And since women live under this climate, a climate that misogyny feeds, a climate upheld by the idea that women should submit to what males want from us - i.e. that males are entitled to this - it's important to understand violent misogyny is never an outlier, & never OK either.

          Very clever but twisting what I said is not something I will ever accept. I said extremists are outliers. Goodbye

          It's not twisting anything to ask that this violent misogyny isn't minimised. Trans people are also being targeted. They may be 'outliers' but they're causing real damage and nobody seems to want to say this is not ok.

          Violence is not exclusively male and the majority of trans people are not violent misogynists. Violence is predominantly male. Some trans people are violent misgoynists (so are some women). Women (as in females) have a right to voice concerns and be respectfully heard.
