Summary of the #TerfCutter #LynnBoylan debacle this week.
2/8
On Thursday, I was casually scrolling through Twitter, when I came across this disgusting, misogynistic tweet. An insult to women and a threat against them in one image. #WomensRightsAreHumanRights
3/8
Happily it only had one “like”. Out of curiosity, I clicked in to find out what misogynist had liked the tweet. I was shocked to discover that the person who had liked the tweet was Lynn Boylan @LNBDublin. A senator from @sinnfeinireland
4/8
Lynn Boylan, a woman who claims to be a feminist, liked a tweet that celebrates violence against women. I found this outrageous and decided to confront her on twitter. This is not the sort of behaviour I expect from public figures.
5/8
Although I was outraged, my tweet to Lynn Boylan was perfectly civil but Lynn’s first action was to block me.
6/8
Since then Lynn Boylan has deactivated her account. The cowardice. Why doesn’t she just admit she was wrong and apologise? I mean, we teach toddlers how to do this. Why can’t a fully grown woman take responsibility for her actions?
7/8
A big thank you to @iseult, @TheCountessIE and everyone whose combined actions helped to shine a light on the everyday misogyny women experience in Ireland. Violent threats are completely unacceptable and no politician should ever endorse them in any way. #EverdayMisogyny
8/8
Also, the sticker in the picture Lynn Boylan liked, has since been removed thanks to some lads I know down in Dublin. Thanks to them as well - you know who you are!

Today, Germany legalises child abuse and eviscerates women's rights.

The unthinkable is happening.

Germany's new self ID legislation also sets a dangerous precedent for evermore insane self ID laws throughout Europe and beyond.

A thread. 🧵

#Selbstbestimmungsgesetz
1. Any adult who declares themselves to be a "different gender" will be legally recognised as that "gender".

This means any man can declare himself a woman on a whim and then have the LEGAL RIGHT to access women-only spaces e.g. toilets, changing rooms etc. Single sex spaces are NO LONGER legally permissible in Germany.

#WomenRise
2. Parents can declare the "gender" of children under the age of 14.

This means that parents can literally "transition" children FROM BIRTH. This is nothing short of CHILD ABUSE.

Giving parents the legal right to register their infant son as a girl is absolutely insane.

Lying to and gaslighting children from birth should be an inconceivable notion.

𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐆𝐚𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐂𝐨𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐋𝐢𝐞𝐬.

Just a snapshot of what teenagers across Ireland will face at school next week.

"Stand Up Awareness Week" has reared its ugly head again.
This week is dedicated to convincing kids that men can be women and vice versa.

Gender ideology is pushed from every corner of the curriculum and is embedded in nearly every school activity.

There is no avoiding it.
How do I know all this?

Because I've been there.

In 2021 I was 12 years old and my school partook in #StandUpWeek, a BelongTo initiative.

Last year, I exposed Villiers School in Limerick and some of the shocking indoctrination happening there.

Remember this video?

Well that's not all that's been going on at Villiers.
At the time, I suggested that boys were very probably allowed to share dorms with girls.

Multiple people defended Villiers to the hilt, claiming that my suspicions were completely unfounded. Image
This disturbing image, reposted by Villiers on Instagram clearly indicates otherwise.

It seems that inclusion trumps safeguarding at Villiers. 🚩 Image

Paralympics: Round 1 of the T12 Women’s 400m is scheduled for 9:45 (GMT) on Monday morning.

A 50yo MAN - “Valentina” Petrillo – will be competing in this WOMEN'S race.

🧵 A thread on this disgusting cheat.

#ValentinaPetrillo Image
Note that #Petrillo is running in the T12 category. This category is for athletes with a serious visual impairment. Image
"It's a disadvantage being unable to see the finishing line"

Petrillo's "disability" seems to conflict with the T12 classification. If his only problem is seeing the finish line, how does he qualify for the T12 category at all? Image

There's a lot of people posting this picture to "prove" that Imane Khelif is a woman.

Quick thread on why that is absolute rubbish. 🧵 Image
1. An unverified, undated picture proves nothing. The picture could be of anyone.

2. Pink ≠ girl. The idea that the child pictured is a girl just because they're wearing pink is insulting and demeaning.
3. Khelif is believed to have a DSD - 46XY - 5ARD. This means that while in his mother's womb, his genitalia failed to develop appropriately. He was wrongly assumed to be female at birth due to his malformed male genitals.

The International Boxing Association has released a statement about Lin Yu-ting and Imane Khelif - the male boxers competing against women in the Olympics.

There are few important things to note from this statement...

🧵
iba.sport/news/statement…
Image
"The athletes did not undergo a testosterone examination but were subject to a separate and recognized test... this test conclusively indicated that both athletes did not meet the required necessary eligibility criteria" Image
Numerous uninformed commentators have claimed that these boxers are simply women with higher than average levels of testosterone.

The IBA has now confirmed that testosterone levels were NOT used when the IBA disqualified these boxers from women's competition.
