THANK YOU, JUDGE NB @cityoflondon’s appalling answer: “Judge: there is a concern about those who self exclude for reasons of religion or otherwise DS it is accepted that there are women who self exclude”

Remember: THEY are inclusive. YOU "self-exclude".

"Look what you made them do..." "Be a shame if anything else happened to your rights ladies..."

SANDIE PEGGIE IS APPEALING The Darlington Nursing Union welcomes the news that its member Sandie Peggie is appealing her case against the Royal College of Nursing. Throughout this ordeal, Sandie has demonstrated an enormous amount of courage and determination. It takes immense strength to stand up, challenge decisions and continue fighting for what you believe is right, particularly when the battle involves an organisation that should have been there to represent you. No healthcare professional should ever be abandoned by the very union they have paid to protect them. That is precisely why the Darlington Nursing Union was established: to ensure that healthcare professionals, who believe in biological reality, have a voice, receive proper representation and are never left feeling that they have to fight alone. Trade union membership should mean having someone in your corner when it matters most. It should mean support, solidarity and representation – not having to question whether your union will stand beside you when things get difficult. Sandie, as you continue your fight, please know that we stand with you. Your case and courage has shown why alternative options for union representation on these issues is urgently needed. Join us #StandWithSandie #DarlingtonNursingUnion #DNU #Nursing #HealthcareProfessionals

Apparently, asking trans-ID people not to go to some swim sessions in one pool (despite having TWO OTHER POOLS to use) is "deeply distressing". Which is interesting language given the tests for harm in the Conversion Practices Bill. @akuareindorf @BinTheBill_ @roseveniceallan.

Children’s publishing needs its collective hard drive checked. 👇👇👇

Single sex services/spaces shouldn’t have to rely mainly on safety from male violence This is re more than safety, dignity and respect Women are different in single sex spaces Less on show Less corrected Men dominate We shouldn’t have to justify temporary relief from that

So. Show us in the Bill where these exclusions live. Show us how the section 47 mandatory investigative Children Act duty will not be triggered. If we are all so wrong, this should be easy?

This is funny because I used to go to the Ladies' pond around 25 yrs ago and if anyone male was spotted by the terrifying woman in charge she would shout at him through a megaphone. And that included toddlers.

These men's defense is that men own their wives: The *husband* allowed this. The *husband* should have stopped it. Even when the woman was obviously in distress, the *husband's* signal was what he was waiting for. She never mattered. #JoanneYoung thetimes.com/uk/crime/articl…

Burnham is crazy to pick a fight with parents, religious believers, free speech campaigners and lesbians and gay men - my piece for @Telegraph telegraph.co.uk/gift/1da05c6…

#SexIndustryArticles Strangulation during sex is shockingly common among young people. So why are MSPs ignoring this deadly threat? scotsman.com/news/opinion/co… "Sex education was so much easier a generation or two ago. As I approached 15, my mother urged me to “be careful” with boys. “Don’t let him unbutton your coat,” she said. Today, I shudder when I think of the sexual minefield that my granddaughters – still more interested in crochet and sharks than boys – will face as they become young women. The rise in online pornography – available to every young person on their smartphone – has fuelled a change in sexual behaviour and attitudes. Studies from across the world show that young men who watch even non-violent porn display higher levels of sexist attitudes than their parents. And non-fatal strangulation (NFS) – or choking as it is known colloquially – has become the norm among people under 35 years old. Sitting in a sedate committee room of the Scottish Parliament earlier this week, surrounded by women of all ages, I heard a doctor describe the impact of NFS, second by terrifying second. Pressure around a woman’s neck cuts off the blood supply, leading to blood congestion in her brain. Within six to eight seconds, a women will lose consciousness. After 15 seconds, her bladder will be incontinent, after 30 seconds her bowels will open. She will be brain dead within four minutes. Professor Cath White OBE, the medical director of the Institute for Addressing Strangulation (IFAS), explained to the silent room how ‘choking’ can also cause brain damage. There is evidence to suggest that it is the second most common cause of stroke in young women – with the brain injury occurring days or weeks after the strangulation incident. “There is no safe way to strangle,” insists Professor White, yet many young women now consider it a routine part of sex. A recent survey carried out by the institute reveals that over a third (35 per cent) of 16 to 34-year-olds reported being strangled/choked at least once during consensual sex. Only three per cent of older people (55 to 64) say that it is an issue. Non-fatal strangulation has become so much part of young people’s consensual sexual lives, that the criminal justice system often refers to it as “rough sex”, even if when it results in death. A 2020 analysis of 60 homicides of women across the UK, where the defendant used “rough sex” as his defence, revealed that nearly half (45 per cent) of the cases resulted in a manslaughter (culpable homicide) charge, a lesser sentence or no prosecution at all. As Fiona Mackenzie of the campaign group, We Can’t Consent to This, told the meeting on Wednesday, strangulation during sex is one of the “biggest unspoken issues in our society”."

Men keep insisting vanilla isn't an insult while using it as a way to shame women as frigid prudes if they dare think dangerous sex that hurts women is abhorrent. Because nothing worse to these scrotes than a woman who rejects self-harming for their erections.

These are very unstable men who react badly to being told no Risk to themselves - castration Risk to others- murder It is utterly reckless for governments to collude & arm them with threat of criminal sanctions for those who won't submit to unreasonable demands #BinTheBill

Of course the SC doesn't say "you can't provide a TI service"!! Anyone can provide a mixed sex service! What it said, very clearly, is that "woman" means biological woman and a "women-only" service means a service for biological women!! There is NO provision in the EA for a 'single-gender' service.

The intrusion of cross-dressing men in the Ladies' Pond is part of what makes it idyllic, apparently. Idyllic for whom?

Destroying single sex spaces “is a feature not a bug”. Nice clarity there.

Forget all the huge supermarkets and their mawkish Christmas adverts, this was the best Christmas advert - Enniskillen pub Charlie's put out this advert back in 2023. It’s brilliant.

Hell needs to be real and there needs to be a special level in hell dedicated to white western privileged women who cosplay in my oppression and feel “cute” about it. The visceral rage I feel when I see these videos, the audacity, the absolute ignorance, the idiotic glee with which they broadcast choosing to be half-human for the rest of their lives, abandoning the rights and dignity and freedoms and equality women like me have had to fight for decades and still be deprived of doesn’t fit in my chest. Women in Iran are still getting lashed for refusing to wear hijab while this semi-sentient see weed is twirling around in her black tool of dehumanization and subjugation of women by the way.
