1/10 Recently a teacher told my class that a baby can be “assigned” the wrong sex at birth… and that is how a man can “actually” be a woman. I rolled my eyes so much it’s a wonder they didn’t roll right out of my head! #SexIsObserved #SexMatters #SexIsReal #SexNotGender
2/10 I said, “No. Sex is observed and recorded, not assigned. If you have a penis you are a male.” It was at this point that a fellow student chipped in. #BiologyIsNotBigotry #Biology #WomenWontWheest #WeWillBeHeard #SexMatters #SexNotGender #SexIsImmutable
3/10 “Being trans is like being told you're right-handed all your life then realising you're actually left-handed,” she said. #NoThankYou #WhatIsAWoman #AdultHumanFemale #KPSS #BiologyIsNotBigotry
4/10 “Actually,” I said, “It’s more like using your hands all your life then suddenly deciding to shake “hands”, open doors & serve yourself at the buffet, with your FEET instead, regardless of how anyone else might feel.” #WomensRightsAreHumanRights #WomenArePeople
5/10 We *all* know feet are important… but there are places where hands are welcome, but no foot should go! Pick 'n' mix anyone? #SingleSexSpaces #KPSS #KeepSingleSexSpacesSingle #SexMatters #SexNotGender
6/10 (God I’m so foot-phobic, aren’t I? A total FERF.)
😂😂😂😂
7/10 With that argument won, I then moved on to explain to my teacher about how women are affected by this ideology with rapists in women’s prisons and men in women’s sports. You will not believe what he said next! #WomenWontWeesht #WomensRightsAreHumanRights #SexMatters
8/10 He told me that these were very EXTREME CIRCUMSTANCES! Can he actually hear himself?!?! #WeWillBeHeard #NoThankYou #RespectMySex #SexNotGender
9/10 These aren’t “extreme circumstances” at all! There are multiple male sex offenders identifying as women and ending up in women’s prisons and multiple examples of men robbing women’s places in sport. #SaveWomensSports #PennCheats #KPSS #NotOurCrimes
10/10 AND even if these things only happened in extreme circumstances… how many women is my (male) teacher happy to sacrifice in order to placate the gods of gender woo? Funnily enough, he didn’t answer. #GenderWooWoo #ImmuneToWooWoo #BiologyIsNotBigotry #IStandWithJKRowling

1/11 Recently my entire school was given a form to fill out. It was all about preferred pronouns and inclusive language. 🙄 We’d already had a class where we spoke about “inclusive language” so I knew what they WANTED me to put. #SexMatters #SexNotGender #Biology
2/11 The first question was, “Would you ever use the phrase “hi guys”?” Seriously?!? They're trying to get you to say no because a TIM might take offence even though in Ireland we often use the word guy for boys AND girls. #WomensRightsAreHumanRights #SexIsReal #Biology
3/11 The next one, “What pronouns are YOU comfortable with when being addressed by someone else? He/She/They/One/Other.” What the hell? Who ADDRESSES someone using he or she?

1/9 Recently I got pulled out of class for a “little chat”. I was told I had been reported for making “offensive comments”. Without ascertaining my version of events or even asking if the “reports” were true, it was clear my teacher had already decided I was guilty. #SexMatters
2/9 The only thing I’m guilty of is expressing perfectly sensible and legitimate views! Plus, since when is offending someone a big deal? People take offence at all kinds of things. Such is life and we all just have to deal with it. #BiologyIsNotBigotry #SexNotGender #SexMatters
3/9 I suspect, although I still don’t know for certain, that these “offensive comments” were actually facts that I discussed with a few classmates when they asked for my opinion. #WomenWontWheesht #WomensRightsAreHumanRights #IStandWithJKRowling #WeWillBeHeard #IStandWithMaya

1/8 I am being taught a belief system as fact in school. When I ask questions and point out obvious and huge problems I am told off and receive abuse from students AND teachers. #SexNotGender #FairPlayForWomen #WomenWontWheesht #sexmatters
2/8 In one class I was handed a booklet that had truly shocking content such as “your sex is assigned at birth.” It isn’t! It is just what you are! A doctor doesn’t randomly decide it! #SexNotGender #FairPlayForWomen #WomenWontWheesht #sexmatters
3/8 Another statement in the booklet was that “Lesbians are mainly attracted to women.” But then they are bisexual, aren’t they? Lesbians are exclusively attracted to women. No mainly about it! #SexNotGender #FairPlayForWomen #WomenWontWheesht #sexmatters
