Ok if feminists could go into schools and teach children about sex and gender what would they teach?
I think it may go something like this:-

Dress however you want - it is fine for girls to wear trousers & flat shoes, boys can wear skirts if they like
colours are just colours - you can like whichever one you choose

The length of your hair has nothing to do with whether you are male or female

Women & girls can be strong strong & assertive, men & boys can be nurturing & sensitive (ideally everybody should be a all of these)
Toys are just toys, its fun for everyone to play with cars & bricks & dolls & unicorns.

Everyone deserves to be treated with respect listened to.
No one is born in the wrong body, learn to love your body, look after it, respect it & look after it. Healthy functioning bodies do not need altering, they are beautiful.
Love who ever you love.

Respect your lover's boundaries

Only have sex that both of you are happy with.

Gender Critical Feminists of South West Wales
@SWWalesGCFems
in recent years there has been a debate about early makes a person a woman (or a man).
Either
Genitals, chromosomes, gonads
Or
The brain
We believe the former
The people who believe the latter believe it is possible to be born with a woman's brain in body with male genitals etc
As feminists we believe that women are discriminated against & oppressed because they are female, it is those people with vulvas, xx.chromosomes & ovaries who suffer from sexism.
We believe sexism still exists worldwide & in our country.
Because of this we believe that women need sex segregated spaces for reasons including:-

Privacy and dignity (many men want this too)
Safety from male violence (in spaces where we may be vulnerable)
Recovery from male violence (in refuges and rape cuts centres)

So why have women been putting t shirts on statues up and down the country? And why with the dictionary definition of woman?
Women have fought long and hard for the right to be accepted fully as members of society:
•It is just over a 100 years since some women won the right to vote on equal terms with men.
•43 years ago discrimination against women in the workplace was made illegal
•Women’s entitlement to equal pay was not enshrined in law until 1970
•During the 1970’s the first women’s refuges and rape crisis centres were opened
•Not until 1990 were married women taxed independently from their husbands
•Rape in Marriage became a crime in 1994

We often get into debates with people about women in Islam. How they dress. Are they allowed to study. Are they forced to wear Hijabs, Can Muslim women ever be femisnists, Are they oppressed. What the Quran says on this or that. On #WomensDay let me share some insights
The recent global socio-political climate, has been such that the phrase “Muslim woman” might conjure an image of a demure powerless woman sheltered by her burqa, oppressed by her hijab. Yet this image is not what history records or what present shows.
Muslims believe that the first verses revealed to Prophet Muhammed were the first five verses in Surat Al-Alaq ("The Clot"), which orders people to seek knowledge.
Seeking knowledge is thus obligatory for every Muslim, male and female

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

10 THINGS MEN CAN DO TO PREVENT GENDER VIOLENCE @threadreaderapp 1. Approach sexual harassment & forms of #gender #violence as a MEN’S issue involving men of all ages & socioeconomic, racial/ ethnic backgrounds. View men not only as possible offenders, but as empowered bystanders
2. DON’T REMAIN SILENT
If someone you know is abusing his partner – or is disrespectful or abusive to girls and women in general – try to talk to him about it. Urge him to seek help. Or if you don’t know what to do, consult a friend. #SpeakUp #BystanderIntervention
3. HAVE THE COURAGE TO LOOK INWARD
Question your own attitudes. Don’t be defensive when something you do or say ends up hurting someone else. Try hard to understand how your own attitudes & actions might inadvertently perpetuate sexism and violence, & work towards changing them.

At dinner, I learned more about corruption + racism built into society by our masters. A book we discussed (Zinn) was used as part of this "Left" resource's bibliography. I had to share. [A thread]

@BlackSocialists - thoughts on this resource?

historyisaweapon.com/indextrue.html
It very simply lays out the case that we are all being controlled. It covers hidden history of the United States including their (and, due to the systems created by our masters, our) racism.

If you haven't been in school for a while (or are in a terrible school), some of the words might trip you up. Dictionary.com and Wikipedia.org are two good resources to help you.

So....I've decided to go through various TERFs and TEFs that I've blocked and compile a list of "clues" and "warning signs" that someone might be a TERF/TEF.

Obviously a quick check of their TL will generally give them away, but these are for "quick glance" checks.
1) "Old School Lesbo" is one to check, especially when paired with 2) "Before the T got added to LGB" or 3) 80s gender bending.
4) Profiles with XX or XY (yes men can be TERFs/TEFs)
