🧵
What a bizarre and unbelievably male-entitled thing to say. This is just another way of saying, "You're not making an effort to understand your abuser. You need to do a better job of understanding." 1/10
If I'm not mistaken, the OP is the same beardy guy who recently said that the UK's 2010 Equality protects "gender identity" (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). 2/10
I'm no expert on UK law, but I do know that the UK's 2010 Equality Act does not protect "gender identity." I've been doing this for a while and I'm reasonably confident that I'm right on that bit. 3/10

A New York woman wrote to her state senator to express concern about the state housing men in women's prisons on the basis of their "female gender identity." 1/10
I'm posting screenshots of his (rather pathetic) response here, with her permission. #KeepPrisonsSingleSex

Quick 🧵 on why we're never going to give up and on why we're going to win. 1/10
I got this desperate email from a mom (mum, if you like) via my personal website just a few minutes ago. She used what I assume is her real name (which I am omitting for obvious privacy reasons). 2/10
"Yesterday my 20-year-old daughter informed me she started taking testosterone via a Planned Parenthood doctor and 'is a man'. She never presented with dysphoria as a child. I cannot find any support to help me help her get help. ... 3/10

For @MacyGraysLife, if she can see this.

🧵 1/10
I started talking about sex and gender on my personal FB page (using my full name) in 2015. I'm not sure if I ever said that changing your body parts doesn't make you a woman exactly, but that was definitely something I was saying generally, at that time. @MacyGraysLife 2/10
By 2017, it became too much. I stopped talking about it on FB, and I changed my FB name. It just became too hard dealing with the push-back from friends and family. I felt exhausted. So I simply stopped talking. @MacyGraysLife 3/10

🧵

A paragraph from the dissent (Breyer, Sotomayor, Kagan) (citations omitted). 1/8
"Whatever the exact scope of the coming laws, one result of today’s decision is certain: the curtailment of women’s rights, and of their status as free and equal citizens. ... 2/8
Yesterday, the Constitution guaranteed that a woman confronted with an unplanned pregnancy could (within reason-able limits) make her own decision about whether to bear a child, with all the life-transforming consequences that act involves. ... 3/8

To my cousin Heather, who took to Twitter yesterday to call me a far-right fascist bigot for having the temerity to stand up for women and girls and then blocked me (screenshots downthread). 🧵 1/10
You and I share a common ancestry. Your father and my mother began life in the same womb (something that only women have). I respect our common ancestry. 2/10
Of course, our ancestry is not entirely shared. Your mother and my father are not related, biologically. Oh, sorry, I used the word "biologically." That must have confused you, as you seem not to understand that human beings are a sexually dimorphic species. 3/10
