Often when you back "Gender Critical" people into a corner and they know they can't defend their claim that sex is binary any further they'll say "yeah well most trans people aren't intersex anyway so it's nothing to do with you". Obviously this is a deflection, but also...
does that mean you think trans women who are XX are "real women"? Because some are, and some of those who are don't even know it. If we tested all the countless trans women who you've abused in the last few years of your pathetic life and one of them was XX (or had whatever...

For trans people and allies newish to this who might be feeling stressed seeing transphobes celebrating the Cass Review as the end of trans people:
They celebrate everything like that. They celebrated the Allison Bailey losing her court case as the end of trans rights. They...
celebrated the Keira Bell case, which got thrown out almost immediately, as that. They celebrated JK Rowling coming out as that
You need to understand they are a conspiracy cult who needs to constantly feel like they are on the verge of the end of the world. They constantly...

Multiple times in my life I've gone to the GP and said "I have asthma, I haven't got inhalers from you in years but need some now" and every time they've just given me them right away without any fuss
I stopped getting HRT from the NHS after encountering a "Gender...
Critical" GP who refused to renew my prescription and was going out of their way to make my life harder. Fighting doctors is so incredibly stressful, way beyond anything on here. So I just gave up and went private, as I'm one of the few lucky enough to be able to do that
I...

Today trans people update their Passports using a process the government put in place decades ago. During that time there hasn't been a single example of a trans person OR CIS PERSON exploiting that process. Not even one, in decades, in a country of 65 million
The first thing anyone should ask when anti trans activists make a claim that appears to justify taking away trans people's rights is statistical evidence. They NEVER have anything beyond a scary picture or meme. But the second thing is what exactly "exploiting" means

One of the things I think it takes a long time to get as a trans person is a total fearlessness of GCism as an ideology. I think it's easy to feel that they have power over you, or fear the abuse, or even worry you will get bamboozled by one of their arguments, but once you...
realise they really don't have anything, and you've experienced the worst abuse they can give out, you realise how weak and pathetic they are. They have a lot of wordgames they can tie you up with, but none of them have an answer to why they deny all the science on healthcare...

The "Should a rape victim have to say their rapist's pronouns in court" argument is the same as this one and the "If aliens said they'd blow up the Earth unless I said the N Word would it still be immoral"
Focusing on ridiculous extreme hypotheticals says a lot about you
Whenever you come up with some moral absolute like "It is wrong to kill someone when it's not in self defense" you can come up with a hypothetical where it's not true. What if you'd gone back in time and could kill Hitler before he rose to power?!?!?! Sometimes they can be...

There is no evidence for the existence of "Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria" at all
There's only 2 papers on it, both by anti-trans activists. The first was so bad the journal apologised and issued corrections, the second has been retracted
This guy is one of the quacks who pushes Blanchard's HSTS/AGP nonsense, which is also politically motivated anti-trans pseudoscience
The papers on that will also eventually be retracted as they are an absolute joke too

I hate how British people use the word "concerns". Concerns are what you have when you aren't sure of something, before you know. "I am concerned that sofa won't fit through the doorway". Then you check and find out it does. The only action from concern should be investigate
"We've taken action because of concerns" = We have done something without checking if it was right or not. We acted without knowing
It *may* be the right action, but also it may not, and you didn't know before you did it because you didn't act on information, you acted on worry

I just went on @theJeremyVine BBC Radio 2 to argue with @Fox_Claire about the protests against "Gender Critical" activist @Docstockk giving a talk at Oxford University
"Baroness" Fox claimed that the GC movement don't want to take away trans peoples rights whilst herself...
supporting changing the EA2010 to remove trans women like me's protections from misogynistic sexism from it, and to make it legal to ban us from things like the women's toilets at work or university (which it is not legal to do today)

I call GC a cult and people like this show up to try and claim they aren't. Look at the state of it
I'm not convinced that Nicola Sturgeon was "brought down by the GRA Reform" or that it was wrong for her to try and reform it (obvs), but I totally agree that most people don't care about trans rights and that focussing on them *for left or right* is not a vote winner
I don't think we've seen an example anywhere in the world, left or right, in any elections from the last decade where focussing on trans issues helped win. In a lot of cases (USA, Australia) it was just an expensive way to tell voters you're not interested in "real" issues

Because several journalists have asked me about this now:
I don't think TalkTV downtuned my voice on purpose. I think there's a complex interaction between various software programs going on. I have had this issue one time before with @TalkHeathenlive. It never happens when...
I do my own show or talk to friends etc using the same setup and software. I imagine there is some professional studio setup program that is interacting with something at my end which is causing the problem. I can't be certain, but as it has happened once before with a team...

You have to be seen publicly dating one of these stallions for a whole six months, which do you choose?
If you don't pick one then you will be assigned 2 at random

I think this is still @Glinner's best Twitter moment
Could there be a better representation of the trans panic than a man telling a woman to shut up because she asked for evidence
Ok this one is a zinger too
Anyone else watching the #PokemonTCG European Championships 👀
Just watched some kid 1/3 of my age just do some mad big brain deckout play with Lugia/Tyranitar

As these things get more extreme I want cis people to realise that these sick fucks have been saying "we aren't coming for adults healthcare" literally the entire time, and we have been saying "yes they are"
They have been lying the whole time. They are lying about all of it
Same here in England. Literally since the start of the "Gender Critical" movement they've been saying "we don't have a problem with trans women, just abusive men" and the whole time we've been saying they want to ban trans women. And they just revealed their hand recently

This is really bleak. The head of the EHRC has called for totally gutting trans protections from the EA2010. This is a backdoor bathroom bill including for people with a GRC, basically would nullify the GRA. Would remove legal protections. Everything we've been saying they want
@EHRCChair is calling to remove all legal protections from misogyny for ALL trans women
Literally everything we have today

Don't want to take from this message with some meta trans wars bs... but 😂
I actually think it's got to the point where, aside from when he posts YOUR childhood photos to his blog, GL is probably a net benefit for trans ppl. Nothing brings us together more than dunking on him
He's so obviously a trollish loser that he's not winning the GCs anything, and they know it. They don't promote him or hold him up or anything. He's poured his entire soul into this and they see he's no use and even with all that passion he's sidelined. So not a danger

It really is no different arguing with GC people and arguing with religious cultists. When you find something in their worldview that's an internal contraction or that's disproved by evidence they do this thing where they avoid confronting the realisation just before they get...
there. Like you set them up and just before they close the loop they deflect. They do it in a way where it could only happen as consistently as it does if they were already aware of the contradiction and are just unwilling to face it. An idiot would walk into it

All of the big GC people do this. Sall Grover told me to my face that she wants to ban me from "moving about the world", aka ban me from using the public spaces I do today and need to use to be safe. It is people like her who want to ruin our lives, and yet they pretend it's not
They love to pretend they care about "real transsexuals". They do this because if you describe what they actually want - to ruin the life of every trans person on Earth - it's clear that they are just transphobic. So instead they invent some mystical type of trans person they...
