The entire structure of the Left had been co-opted into gender ideology, so much so that UK Left-wing feminists in opposition were silenced at every level.
Political parties, publications, academia. Even sewing circles.
Left-wing feminists had to organise and crowdfund their own

research and platforms, but still were faced with a well-funded, many-tiered gender machine
bringing together such varied voices as Google, Amazon, the British Army, MI6, Twitter, UK Labour, the SNP, Malta, Lt. Sulu, the DNC, MIT, American Scientific, Gilead Sciences, Experian,

Go Daddy and the Law Society of England and Wales.
Not to mention the many injunctions to no-debate.

Do you know how hard we worked to get our voices heard?

You froze us out of our natural circles, and now you’re accusing us of aligning with your enemies?

They aligned with us.

Interesting. But no.
Systematic patriarchal abuse =/= violence.
Violence is a tool used against transgressive men, but get this,
women were never going to keep to the rules anyway, because BIOLOGY.
It’s why sex-selective abortions are out of control in certain societies.

If you’re going to be born female, you’re going to be born WRONG.
Please understand.
The system of patriarchy doesn’t need you to be born male, it needs you to become compliant. That is why it punishes gay men. Not because it doesn’t like gay sex, but because it doesn’t like the

idea of a man who might let the side down and not enforce control over a woman.
That’s why it prefers it’s gay men to trans themselves out of manhood and into compliant, stereotype-embracing transwomanhood. Iran shows you the way.
When you condemn women fighting the patriarchy as

“The Ministry of Justice … are committed to advancing equality, eliminating discrimination, harassment and victimisation …”

Women prisoners are victimised by a system that validates the feelings of male sex offenders over their safety.
Legislated discrimination.

of women who may already have suffered at the hands of abusive males.
How is this fair?
Whose equality is advanced?
Not society at large, who now have to reconcile the extended suffering of incarcerated women with a just punishment for, say, shoplifting.
Not female prisoners, who

have been deemed worthy sacrificial lambs by the courts already.
Not the trans-identifying prisoners, whose every gender demand is now elevated far above any bog-standard prisoner protest. They may seem like the winners, but their reoffending rates likely get a boost by making

@SussexUni

Today is #NationalPoetryDay, but misogyny doesn’t take a day off so neither do we.

This poem is dedicated to .@SussexUni. May you be called to account for your failure to take a stand against misogyny.

#ShameOnSussexUniversity
#MenWhoWearWomen

Beware of men who wear women
wear women as skins
invented personas to hide themselves in
men who affirm the law of possession
who colonise language of form and oppression
men dressed in womanskin

Beware of men who wear women
who wear women’s faces
dilettantes, smitten by

all that abases
flushed by the thrill of the heat of their shame
believing all women must relish the same as
the men who wear women’s faces

Beware of men who wear women as monstrous creations
werewomen, shaped by ignoble sensations
men who are willing to consume whole lives

The male psychology affected by certain decisions and their attendant consequences: expanded.

Consider a transwoman who passes.

Hair, face, figure, all highly reminiscent of, not just any woman, but the most beautiful, most desirable of women by our society’s standards.

It’s not a woman’s body, but how would you know?
“You don’t see gametes!”we’re repeatedly told.

She looks like a woman, she feels like a woman, she lives as a woman, uses pronouns and everything.

But.

She thinks like a man.

How do we know?

Because she has a man’s physiology;

she has a man’s psychology:
She has the body and brain of a man who has thought of himself as, and has been made to look like, a beautiful woman.

Did her physiology inform her psychology, or her psychology direct her physiology?

If you elevate a collection of stereotypes about what women are and what women do over the universal experiences of female people, you will come up with nonsense like this⬇️about the ways race, gender and class interact.
I’d like to show you why #SexMatters here.
A thread:

https://twitter.com/ayocaesar/status/1436295311392137223

Black women, Brown women, White women, disabled women, any kind of woman, and transwomen.

What is it they all have in common?

1.Humanity, ofc.

2.Human physiology, informing and affecting our human psychology.

3.A broad approximation of appearance - recognisably same species.

4.We are all a part of the sorting and structure of society.

Why am I talking about women?
Because men also exist.

What do women have in common with men?

All of the above.

It’s why, and how, we co-exist.
