Interesting 'nom binary' athlete on @BBCJohnBeattie #Newsdrive tonight. Despite knowing what the rules were before entering it still wasn't enough. Expecting people to comply. Then when they comply they have to comp!y some more. A pity the journal didn't ask how they would feel about a non binary class being inequitable in any case as it would be mixed sex. It's already been proven that non binary men already use some advantage in qualifying for marathons with women's times. That'll be the next thing women will have to fight. And btw lgb competitors

When women had evidence to support their arguments against the GRR Bill Scotgov rejected it on the basis of being "anecdotal." When trans activists and #Scotgov funded groups had evidence to support their arguments it was valid because it was "lived experience." Someone laughed at Russell Findlay MSP for saying "there was no evidence there was no evidence" that self-id could present a risk to women. Of course what he meant was absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. The fact most of the countries cited by Scotgov as having had problem free self-

Pretty devastating how this campaign has become unrecognisable in the last 30 years. #zerotolerance #scotgov

"Petition lodged at WM by Sex Matters asks UK Gov to modify the Equality Act 2010 to put it beyond doubt that the terms “sex”, “male”, “female”, “man” and “woman” in equality law mean biological sex and not “sex as modified by a GRC." It would also legalfeminist.org.uk/2022/11/27/new… hopefully make it illegal for #Scotgov to make funding applications by single sex services have a trans inclusive policy as a pre-condition. #Scotgov take the stance that these orgs choose to provide services based on self-id which is just a lie. They've gradually had to

I was in @marksandspencer on Sunday. Mainly the food bit, but had a wander on other floors. It was dead. Terrible, terrible shop. The men's section is like something out of a gents outfitters circa 1950 and not even as nice. The women's section I could hardly be bothered looking. I didn't notice if the changing rooms were mixed. Even the skin care and make up range only had Black Friday deals on stuff you wouldn't pay a pound for. At one point I actually thought I'd walked into a shop accidentally after hours! So, what has this got to do with the picture

We were having a discussion in our group this week about women whom we knew would've been standing shoulder to shoulder with us only a few years ago on all matters women and feminism but now are fierce defenders of gender ideology and fierce critics of us. How could this have happened? And I'm not talking about women who want tg people to be treated fairly but still want women's sex-based rights. They absolutely are bought and sold on twaw and they say they are the same as us. So we have been thinking about a bit more these last few days. Firstly, we

Evidence Gaithered.

Ah cannie mak nae heid nor tail
Yon three invited fae the jail
Tae gie scant words afore they’re done,
or is this jist a bit o’ fun?
And Cass review is nae complete
Sae whit’s the goal oor gov fell seeks? Wi' ah the Christian folk lined up,
let’s nae forget the Data pup
wha’s evidence is in dispute
an’ mony experts still refute.
Yon Humanist wis there in ah
tae evidence reforms tae laa,
Nane obviously up tae speed
wie implications fir each creed!

Yeh. It's America. You make a perfectly reasonable comment defending a woman who questioned the equity of the moderation of this page in terms of sexism and misogyny and you get this. The land of the 1st Amendment right? It wouldn't be my natural inclination to join a page like Image this but there were actually some good discussions. But hell, it's social media. The moderator was clearly an arse. Dire shit should be expected. ☺️
