Five women have filed reports with the LAPD regarding a June 23 incident at #WiSpa, all of them claiming to have seen male genitals in the women’s section.
Several mainstream outlets (@Slate, @guardian, & @thedailybeast) suggested the incident was a hoax.

@Slate @guardian @thedailybeast .@thedailybeast Now that five women have filed police reports, would you like to consider printing a retraction or apology?
@danikafears
When can we expect an apology and retraction for this fake news, @Slate, @e_urq? Five women have filed police reports regarding the #WiSpa incident.

I assume your apology for gaslighting women and a public retraction is forthcoming, @washingtonpost & @caroIineanders?

The legal age of consent in Japan is 13. For comparison, the legal working age is 15.

Lawmaker Hiranao Honda opposed raising the age of consent saying he found it strange that he could be arrested if he "had sex with" a 14-year-old "if there was consent".

Japan was the last OECD nation to criminalize the possession of child sex abuse materials in 2014, under international pressure.
Animated variations are still allowed; several animators opposed the ban of childlike 'hentai' on freedom of speech grounds.

Shin Takagi has shipped anatomically-correct sex dolls of girls as young as five to clients around the world for more than a decade.

“We should accept that there is no way to change someone’s fetishes,” Mr Takagi said.

A trans-identified activist in the US who murdered a lesbian couple and their adopted son, then set fire to their home, will soon have a court case.

Dana Rivers attributed pornography to realizing their 'gender identity'.

Incredibly, this case was not recorded as a hate crime.
"Porn helped me understand my gender deviant mindfreak is healthy & sane and delightfully irrational"

Rivers was instrumental in activism against the lesbian-centered MichFest, which was dissolved for not including men, then Rivers went on to murder a lesbian couple and son.
Rivers is currently in California, one of just a few US states actively promoting the transfers of violent men into women's prisons.

A thread about transgender erotica being sold on @Amazon.

The best way to see how this movement views and defines women is to look at the pornography.

This book, "Turning My Son into a Pretty Little Girl" uses BDSM tropes (humiliation, punishment) and applies them to children.
Among the various genres of TG pornography / erotica, there is a theme of turning young boys into girls through dress and behavior. It is basically child pornography marketed at adult men, who presumably are getting thrills by imagining themselves as the children in the scenario.
Among the erotica about turning boys into girls, there is a common theme that boys who act out need to be punished, and that they secretly desire to be transformed into girls.
We see this in transactivism, when adult ♂️ use their desires to rationalize sometimes violent behaviour

"My mum made me realise that I'm only trans because of all the forced-fem stuff I fed my brain for the last 10 years"
"She said that ... I wired my brain to be how it is today. And somehow, I feel like she's right."

"That's bullsh*t, it's more likely your gender identity caused the fetish than the other way around."
"Maybe your dad is a closeted trans woman"

A Chinese gene company selling prenatal tests developed them in collaboration with the country’s military and is using them to collect genetic data from millions of women.

So far, more than 8 million women have taken BGI’s prenatal tests globally.
japantimes.co.jp/news/2021/07/0…
Reuters has found that BGI’s prenatal test, one of the most popular in the world, is a source of genetic data for the company, which has worked with the Chinese military to improve “population quality”
"One BGI study used a military supercomputer to reanalyze NIFTY data and map the prevalence of viruses in Chinese women, look for indicators of mental illness in them, and single out Tibetan and Uyghur minorities to find links between their genes and their characteristics."

Japan — "In recent years, posts viewing trans women using 'women-only spaces' as a problem have been circulating on social media. The argument was also presented at a study group meeting for Diet members, and could influence policy decisions."

.@themainichi, one of the top five leading newspapers in Japan, engages in severe gaslighting with all the usual abusive arguments: that men have a right to womanhood, that women are a subset of our own class, and any discomfort and opposition is either irrelevant or bigoted. Image
We can see the common theme that women defending themselves from male intrusion are portrayed as "excluding" and "attacking".
And no, ♂️ do not have a "right" to be treated like a woman — which is a euphemism for validating a sexual fetish, since they see women as sex objects. Image
