18. Accuse your opponents of political correctness.
19. Appeal to market forces.
20. Allow them in but given them shitty slots.
21. Allow them in but with restricted access.
I see quite some points where we can take inspiration from the men 😍
Fun fact to end this thread: Bruce Jenner continued to be a member of the exclusive men-only exclusive Sherwood Country Club after changing his name to Caitlyn. They did build him a special bathroom though🥰okmagazine.com/photos/caitlyn…

Mag een man die zegt vrouw te zijn een kleedruimte delen met tienermeisjes? Check welke partijen het idee van zelf-identificatie steunen, waarbij iedereen zelf mag bepalen wat voor geslacht hij/zij is. #stemwijzer#verkiezingen2021voorzij.nl/kieswijzer-vro…
Als je wel hebt gehoord over de discussie over transgenderrechten maar niet precies weet waar het nu over gaat, PeachYoghurt kan het goed in gewonemensentaal uitleggen (wel in het Engels). #stemwijzer#Verkiezingen2021
Heb je er wel eens over nagedacht wat het betekent voor vrouwen als een man officieel als vrouw behandeld mag worden als hij zelf zegt dat hij een vrouw is? De meeste politieke partijen steunen dit idee van zelf-identificatie. voorzij.nl/kieswijzer-vro…#Stemwijzer#Verkiezingen2021
@jameelajamil Spout nonsense/mute replies. Sigh. We'll be here spreading a sense of reality.
Men have never been and will never be at the forefront of feminism. That includes men who say they are women. Claiming men can be women transgresses every single boundary women have ever fought for.
@jameelajamil How many men were banned from voting because they said they were women? Or because they dressed or acted femininely, or believed to have a female soul? Zero, that's how many. Why? Because they're men.
@jameelajamil Women are subjected to violence from men because we are women. Not because we perform some kind of stereotypically feminine role. Imagine claiming it's men who pretend to be women who expand those stereotypes. Not women.
Just met with the brand new coordination team of my women's network *jumps around excitedly*
One woman who recently organised an event said her boss told her: "I'm sure it was awful. A room full of only women."
The event was on benevolent sexism.
The man is clearly afraid of women. It made me wonder why men feel so threatened by women, and only women, gathering in one place.
I remarked that he, as a man, has never nor will he ever be in a room of only women, so he has no idea what that's like. As soon as he enters the room, the ambiance will change. Women will act differently when there's a man in the room. Men don't know.
FYI the reason Twitter silenced me again for 12 hours was calling this man - Scottish politician - a man.
He was calling women ‘cis’ which I and a good number of other women objected to. Because we do not identify as women, we are women. It’s our biological reality and it exposes us to the risk of male violence, discrimination and exclusion every day.
We don’t choose that nor does denying that physical reality - literally our skin, blood and bones - change any of these conditions. Because men. Men do this to us. They rape and kill us in huge numbers. So much so they’ve built entire societies around it.
Which reminds me of my abortion doctor who, upon seeing two embryos on the ultrasound, said that would make me it “a double murder”.
This when I was already in stirrups and ready - and willing! - to have the procedure. Yes, you have to wonder why men like that become abortionists. I remember thinking: that makes you a mercenary though.
