Gender identity ideologists rarely attempt comedy, but when it does it always falls flat on its arse.
And I'm blocked within two seconds. Like I say, no sense of humour whatsoever
Absolutely zero chuckles ImageImageImageImage
Ken the Hen, the gender ambiguity chicken, might be funny though.

The anthology is just like a cheap white loaf of bread, mixed, proved and baked in just under an hour. It came out of a series of workshops held just as lockdown kicked off, funded by UCL’s Culture Division bursary scheme.
The bursary scheme is supposed to fund projects that provide public engagement which also supports teaching and research.  The scheme should also support diverse public groups, including those voices who are heard less often. ucl.ac.uk/culture/projec…
The lecturer in charge of the project, Dr Ezra Horbury, also got a piece in the book (fancy that!), said trans people were often spoken over and denied self-representation in media and denied agency over their own medical narratives.

Ruth Hunt in conversation with *Compassion in Politics held on 22 September 2020 - the day the UK Government announced its decision not to reform the GRA.

*Compassion here really means ‘you agree with me and you’re left wing’. Image
Well it was a wheels-cha-cha of a ‘conversation’ with Ruthie-baby constantly treading water and not really saying anything.

To boil it down in one tweet would be easy, but I’m not going to because that would be too easy. Image
Ruth was asked what had gone wrong, why had the Govt. reversed gear on the GRA reforms?

This Govt., rued Ruth, didn’t want to advance inclusivity issues in general. It had simply been a horrendous time, when trans people had had to listen to a significant vocal minority

This now my fourth time with Professor Stephen Whittle - this was an 'in conversation with'. 

On the call were a handful of female testosterone users and a couple of men who may have had oestrogen and few other interested people.
SW stated SW didn’t care it if it were 2, 20 or 200. Which is just as well because there was just a dozen.

I guess as long as SW gets to listen to the sound of SW’s own voice, SW's happy.

SW is now 45 years since transition.  Lots of progress has been made over the years,
except in the recent past few years.  Where should trans activism go next?

Back in 1975, when SW transitioned, things were entirely binary, now the categories had multiplied.

Younger generation are much more accepting of the LGBTQ community and in SW’s children circles they

Thread.

It was called ‘Bloody Difficult Women’ but examples of anyone being ‘bloody difficult’ were in short supply, and the supply of actual women also lacking.

Run by the Conservative LGBT+ group, they invited a range of LGBT+ activists across the political spectrum.
The panel also had two bods from Stonewall - the new CEO Nancy Kelley, and Ayla Holdom.

In total there were 16 on the call, meaning that the audience was just 8 people.

They really should have cut their losses and cancelled.
Nancy was invited to speak first. She didn’t want to talk about Stonewall, she wanted to talk about what it’s like to be a ‘bloody difficult woman’. Being a 'bloody difficult woman' for Nancy involves quoting the made-up facts and figures from Stonewall reports.

Let’s not forget the whole thrust behind the BLM movement is actually prison abolition and defunding the police, *not* improving the lives of people. The group which organised this panel also wants to decriminalise paid rape.
As you can see from the blurb, the aim is total anarchy.

I had no doubt whatsoever before it started that no one would come up with any reasonable alternatives to punish or deter criminals and in fact the topic of defunding the police or abolishing prisons wasn’t even discussed.
The panel was an eclectic mix.

The chair Josh Virasami is *sort of* an official leader of the UK chapter for BLM.

Well. This seems sane. Image
Oh dear we are in a tizzy aren't we? Image
Where is there any evidence that Posie was rude, racist or disrespectful when she was surrounded by a group of angry BLM supporters? Image
