“MrMenno” is a transphobic gay man who loves to pretend that a majority of LGB folks agree with him. Unfortunately for him, that is rarely the case as he found out at a trans-inclusive gay men’s camping weekend. What follows is lots of complaining and a conclusion that he’s “more…
Not a UN report. A report written independently by the special rapporteur for violence against women and girls, Reem Alsalem, who has made no secret of her hatred for trans people. The actual independent expert for sexual orientation and gender identity supports trans people.

I keep being asked what my position on trans rights is. So thought I might as well share with you all...
There comes a point when standing up for Beth Upton is a moral duty given all the abuse that is being heaped on her. rejserin.medium.com/in-defence-of-…
Beth Upton deserved anonymity. The abuse poured on her is disgusting.
Judging from the dumpster fire that is my inbox people really have no clue about the practical reality of how UK law works. UK law is not a hand waved mysterious thing, it is a messily applied compromised system that requires additional court cases to work out the texture. Plus,…
The woman who recently started that trans-excluding women's only gym has done a video saying that "she's just a girl" so couldn't possibly know that the fluid that cleans car windows isn't rainwater that the car collects, and actually has to be filled. 1/ instagram.com/reel/DMVGABhtE…
What is it with Labour MPs and misunderstanding how UK law actually works. Sex doesn't mean biological sex under the ruling as the ruling requires the government to make it operational. Oh, that's right, you just want to promote gender critical propaganda.
The Supreme Court makes clear that in the context of the Equality Act, sex means biological sex. That is now settled law, and as lawmakers and public servants, we have a duty to respect and uphold it. 🧵
This is utterly disgraceful. Beth Upton is the victim, and you are gaslighting her.
This morning @clairebakermsp & I met with Sandie Peggie, who I have spoken in support of in Parliament. Sandie has 30 years’ service as a nurse at the Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy & should never have had to take legal action to uphold her right to change in a single sex space.
Sandie Peggie is a malignant bigot, Dr Upton was doing her job and navigating cranks according to her rights. Absolutely nothing that has come out of the tribunal has changed that. #sandiepeggie #NHSFife #DrUpton #transphobiccranksareastainonhumanity
Yet another example of gender critical propaganda being used to justify philosophical positions. The world wonders.

This is the level of abuse trans people face simply for posting ordinary images of themselves on social media. I will not be shamed.
Poor cartoon woman.
Gender critics are wrong. Being a woman is a conscious act. rejserin.medium.com/biological-ess…
Standing up for Beth Upton shows just how malicious gender critical acolytes are. Beth is a woman regardless of how many times they attack her.
An 82 year old man named Luis Leon came to the US in 1987. He sought asylum from political persecution in Chile. He’s been in the US ever since & was granted a green card. He lost his wallet (and green card) in June & when he went to replace it he was disappeared by ICE 🧵
And this is why Grok isn't a good source for anything data related. It cannot see the underlying data and is repeating gender critical propaganda.
I appreciate the critique. I distinguish raw MoJ data (e.g., 2023/24 HMPPS report: 62% of 245 trans women prisoners convicted of sexual offences vs. 3-4% cis women) from interpretations. Methodology has limitations—self-ID without transition timing verification, per MoJ notes—but…
Magdalen Berns was a racist, so anyone who uses her image either doesn't care or is a blind acolyte.
Shocking answer from Ellie Chowns on trans issues at today's East Mids conference hustings. Where Zack talked about healthcare & the need for trans representation in politics, Ellie talked about how the Supreme Court judgment has clarified the difference between sex & gender...
