Thread by @transwidows

I was told in 2019 in a private conversation with a very prominent PhD gender critical feminist that platforming Hayton was a way to have a political strategy that was acceptable to the left.

I was told by a woman who is part of the organising Committee for one of the original
GC feminist groups that yes, hypothetically they would platform my ex if the situation required it and his leftie political credentials were acceptable.

These conversation described above, may be shocking coming, as they did, from feminists but they were at least honest. They admitted although didn’t quite articulate it, that putting our exes before us (transwidows) was deliberate strategy.

As feminists though, they can never say this publicly because it shows that the women in the grassroots who they purport to speak for are not their priority.

I was told in Twitter DM by a prominent Scottish group that they would continue to share articles by an AGP man because it was useful in recruiting women to the cause.

I started warning people that this strategy excluded the very women most affected by this ideology in 2018.

Gentry left women who perpetuated this strategy need to reflect firstly on the damage it has done to women like me and other trans widows and secondly on how it was a shit strategy all along.

They were never accepted by the left as a result of it. They were groomed and used as a stepping stone by an AGP man who is much cleverer than them, and all this could have been avoided if they had listened to the women at the sharp end.

Alternately if they think their strategy was successful and throwing trans widows under the bus was worth it, they should say so.

The groups who have ended up being right about this are those who put women, children and safeguarding first, such as us, @NoXYinXXprisons @SafeSchools_UK and @StandingforXX

The gentry left need to realise that rather than identifying as our leaders, they can learn from us lessers, particularly on topics that we are expert in and they are not.

I wrote this in August 2019, and should thank @terfasaurus for publishing it.
The feminists who ignored it should be honest about why:

@terfasaurus Oh it’s also worth adding that I only got to have the private conversation mentioned in the first tweet in this thread because I was paying for it.
