I don't care what side of the fence you stand on this issue. When women are literally being attacked and threatened for speaking then there's a huge problem here. You can't claim to be "on the right side of history" and condone this behaviour (or worse take part in it) There's a video showing a man punching a 70 year old woman in the face twice as well
i saw a very interesting video the other day

I don't agree with this, but you do realise she is really close with the Nazis? I don't mean "people I don't like on the internet" kind of Nazis, but the real ones. As she hates trans people now, is how she has spoken out against other minority groups previously
This is a really weird movement for personality cults, and as I've predicted and tried to warn you about, the links between this movement and the far right is becoming increasingly closer and closer, but good luck to anyone on their "definitely the right side of history" quest, but I guess the biggest problems with Jews in the 1930's is that they didn't show the Germans enough reverence.

She responded to the accusation that she is on board with Nazi’s ....there were 6 different groups at this rally for example, none of whom were invited ...I presume one of the groups might have been Evangelists..that doesn’t make her one, if there is concrete evidence out there that she is a Nazi we need to see it?

Co-opting is not gatecrashing. If I held a rally, do you know which group of people wouldn't feel as though I said anything which could be co-opted by them? Nazi's, white supremacists, and those quoting Mein Kampf.
There is a lot more out there about poor, unfortunate, Posie, who for some reason has nazi's speaking about the same issues as her, at her own rallies, but I only came in to make one post, and I've now made 4 or 5, so you can do your own research if you're interested enough. I already know that most in this thread won't be (not you, Oliver).

Because most the things about which you'd hold a rally probably wouldn't have very many fellow-travelers among the undesirables you mentioned. Some of the various "Nazi"-types were likely there for being anti-trans, rather than pro-woman.
What is there to suggest Posie is close to any of those who also joined?

I 100% agree with you up until this point but this is where I find the bias and blinkers come in;

Yes, the rise of the right is terrifying and they are quite clearly and at this point openly piggybacking on this issue - however - the whole thing is reaching boiling point, which is of course the mechanism for escalation and really the whole point. There has been a clear, demonstrable and becoming-exponential increase in violence coming from "the community" (I'm not going to say the left because we know it's not an accurate descriptor at this point).
There's been a recent flip in perpetrators of shootings from the classic "frustrated incel" to members of the LGBTQ community (multiple examples). Gatherings where there are counter-protests with large turnouts like this are becoming increasingly violent from the outset (people declaring violent intent in the run up, not just escalation on the day).
There's an aggressive quasi-religious crusade-esque element rapidly simmering up in the LGBTQ community at the same time as the worrying emboldening of the far right (the outright classically religious far-right, too, the bible thumpers are all over this).
There's no "right side of history" to be on at this point other than the side of some sort of rationality and reason ... unfortunately, that's rarely where history is made.
There's a real hesitance to talk about the things above though from some quarters. And not people arguing that it isn't the case ... just a deafening silence and determination to pretend that there aren't clear and present elements of radicalisation occurring within the LGBTQ community.
The elephant in the room is that radicalised people throughout history have had obvious and understandable reasons for going down that path, whether they're from Belfast, Baghdad, Reddit or Discord. One man's terrorist is the next woman's freedom fighter, etc.

There obviously can never be "evidence" for any individuals internal overall motivations one way or the other because ultimately they're only known by that person; she may or may not have the over-arching goal of protecting women's spaces. However she courts the alt-right to gain notoriety, funding and a platform and (albeit, just observationally) ... she's just plain starting to sound and look like an alt-righter.

Women are sick of trying for sensible discourse and it's met with violence and death threats from men in frocks. It's tiresome to have men tell women we should try to reason with these maniacs. The real trans community must be weeping.

Again I don't disagree and it's not the expressions of frustration that I'm really referring to, I'm not tone-policing, but Parker specifically I think there are a number of red flags. For example, she has effectively said that the abortion ban (and other aspects of oppression of women's rights) are "worth it" in the gender ideology battle.
She'll happily court evangelists and misogynists "for the numbers" to support her cause and that means she either naively believes she can use those numbers and then discard that "army" once her own goals are achieved, OR she agrees with/is indifferent to the other supremacist goals of those groups.
Either way her methods are just more fuel on the fire to make matters worse for everyone. Her rhetoric isn't any more helpful than (and has an awful lot in common with) things like Stonewall "on the other side".

Not according to me, the groups she associates with are easy to look up, along with their beliefs, as are things she's said in the past about abortion etc.
I also didn't once say or imply that what happened in NZ was justified or deserved.
My overall thoughts on the topic of gender ideology are or should be pretty clear on here surely, as is my stance when it comes to women's spaces, children and safeguarding :shrug:.
Again its the all or nothing thinking; Posie Parker "must" be a good person, because she stands for things that I agree with? I just don't think she is. She's too comfortable leaning into support from skinheads. It's a concern, to me. How you feel about it is your business.

Since we are stating our stances on such matters.
My stance is.
If all the trans people who these trans rights activists are sticking up for were real women, they would all be out protesting against themselves for their own rights.

Trans people and women, were, up until around 2019 sharing spaces without any issue whatsoever, and then women have been propagandised/radicalised (mainly by men) into believing their world is being taken away and they are being replaced by a new group of "chicks with dicks" to quote our Cambridge educated lawyer.
I would be radicalised too, if that's what I believed. Everyone always believes they can see through propaganda, which of course only ever happens to other people, but all of us are susceptible to it.
On the other side of that, we have trans people just going about their lives, until they became the topic on everyone else's tongue, not to include in discussion, but to be attacked, marginalised and placed in fear. As a marginalised minority, they also have every right and I'd go beyond that to say duty, to actually fight for their lives, because eradicating trans genderism is just starting to be brought up in the US, which means it will be here too, soon enough.
That's a real and fundamental difference; the very people you all opine on everyday, now face these real and targeted threats consistently. I mean, what the fcuk are people doing having rallies to attack people. I know the Nazi thing gets overdone, but Jesus
I've obviously had my issues with TS, but he's tied himself in knots here to try and be understanding, but has been met with nothing more than weirdness about either supporting women, or supporting lady boys. It's just not true.
There are no solutions, no attempt to be understanding, just vitriol and abuse thrown at a marginalised community. I have issues with trans people in sports, and I think maybe that's because I played a lot of sports growing up, but none of you (I'll exclude ts here) are in any way interested in finding a way forward. I think the first time I ever posted on trans issues, I asked what solutions you had, and to this day, tibb is still way more interested in finding attack pieces; which is cool if that's what you want to do, but seriously, I never thought I'd be happy to see a M&H thread appear, because I have to say, most of you are being completely ridiculous.
If you can't see there is an all out culture war attack on trans people at this point, then you'll never see it, but keep up with this hateful language, and it will soon be followed by hateful actions, and then you won't be able to backpedal away from it. I know deep down, that's not what most of you want, but that's where the buy in to this constant noise ends up, because we've all seen one history documentary, or read one book at least.

It wasn't even a consideration, people used bathrooms to either pee or poop. It wasn't until it was made into an issue that it became a problem.
The equalities act was passed in 2010, so trans women had access to women's bathrooms from that point on, and probably before that (unofficially).

I agree that this is a very new issue and also very grateful for a long and balanced post to read. I would add though that I don't know that it's necessarily true that everything was going along as always until 2019 (I'd say the last 5 years so close enough) and then it all changed because of propaganda and radicalisation; there has also been a dramatic and quite rapid shift in gender ideology and "queer theory"/identity politics that - frankly - actually has little if anything to do with trans people as they've existed in women's spaces up to this point.
I genuinely don't believe that trans women - people actually clearly living as women, for whatever reason that may be - are a risk to women. But modern gender ideology has completely jumped the shark and reason/logic/any sort of evidence-based practice has gone completely out the window (e.g. womanhood being purely an ethereal concept and male-presenting people identifying as women = unquestionably valid) and its a safeguarding nightmare.
Also the situation with adolescent girls identifying in larger and larger number as boys (the numbers absolutely DWARF male to female teens) and engaging in things like breast binding, plus associated varying degrees of self harm and poor mental health that's going untreated because it's masked under gender identity issues, is utterly shocking and shameful. It's extreme body dismorphia that's rooted in patriarchy and self-loathing misogyny and it's being normalised as progressive and positive... this is a real problem.
Alongside a myriad of other very complicated, quite separate, issues that there's no point even trying to discuss when everything is oversimplified into one battleground.
BUT yes I largely agree - at this point all of those very real issues have unfortunately been swamped... not just "kinda overshadowed" but completely and utterly swamped... by a culture war that feels oddly pre-planned and, lo and behold, benefits precisely one group of people: blokes. Wealthy White Western blokes to be more specific. Who would have thought.
There is no more pressing concern than the rise and widespread acceptance of right wing pseudo-evangelism and I honestly think from what I can see, it's coming.
Then we need a 5th for the communists.
You better start protesting then.

But modern gender ideology has completely jumped the shark and reason/logic/any sort of evidence-based practice has gone completely out the window (e.g. womanhood being purely an ethereal concept and male-presenting people identifying as women = unquestionably valid) and its a safeguarding nightmare.
Also the situation with adolescent girls identifying in larger and larger number as boys (the numbers absolutely DWARF male to female teens) and engaging in things like breast binding, plus associated varying degrees of self harm and poor mental health that's going untreated because it's masked under gender identity issues, is utterly shocking and shameful. It's extreme body dismorphia that's rooted in patriarchy and self-loathing misogyny and it's being normalised as progressive and positive... this is a real problem.
Alongside a myriad of other very complicated, quite separate, issues that there's no point even trying to discuss when everything is oversimplified into one battleground.
BUT yes I largely agree - at this point all of those very real issues have unfortunately been swamped... not just "kinda overshadowed" but completely and utterly swamped... by a culture war that feels oddly pre-planned and, lo and behold, benefits precisely one group of people: blokes. Wealthy White Western blokes to be more specific. Who would have thought.
There is no more pressing concern than the rise and widespread acceptance of right wing pseudo-evangelism and I honestly think from what I can see, it's coming.

However she courts the alt-right
ok - how
and i hope its not, she gave an interview to X, because if she spoke to the BBC i hope you will also say she courts the hard left?
"guilty by association" does not stand up in any court
She evidently and openly accepts support from right-wing individuals with a smile and a wave, it's not particularly subtle. To give one example, she's openly stated regarding Roe vs Wade that women in the US losing abortion rights is an acceptable price to pay if it helps in the gender identity wars. These people are not fighting for women's rights. Again maybe she believes its possible to use these individuals "for the numbers" in her own battles and not ultimately hand power to them. In the long run, but if she does I think she's very wrong.
The idea that the BBC is hard left is daft too. I don't really know what it is at this point.

by losing abortion rights do you mean more people in a state dont agree with abortion for all and voted accordingly?
The idea that self ID has not contributed to where we are is just papering over the cracks remember when the silly women pointed out the gaping loophole that predators and opportunists might jump through and were told to run along because it would never happen…, mmm where are we now on that then

Amazing how some men not only have the answers but are also willing to reel off hundreds of words on the subject. And guess what? Turns out women are overreacting and being "weird". That's what I take away from this thread. Thanks though to the men who see it for what it is: middle aged men dressed up as women using any means necessary to push their agenda... Assaults, death threats, rape threats....

I'd never deny that those people exist, especially "online", but it's a much more complicated issue than that and there is a lot to say :shrug:. Again my overall stance in pretty clear and I lean closer to TERF than TRA when it comes right down to it but I can also see that Gender ID stuff is a hugely broad ranging topic.
As I said above, most people identifying as the opposite gender (in 2023) are actually NOT middle aged men identifying as women - they're adolescent girls identifying as boys. The reasons for that are complex and very sad. But they're obviously, when it comes down to it, very different issues to address ... so lumping everything into one basket just doesn't work.

I love the idea that women like this Parker label these sort of events as ‘let women speak’ rallies, which happily include open nazis, Christian extremists and even worse, men! When in reality, all she (and her ilk) want is to be the loudest voices, they only want women (and men) who agree with them to speak, women especially that don’t agree with them and their hateful ideologies get torrents of abuse for not being likeminded bigots, so these ‘worriers of women’s rights’ aren’t really that, they themselves don’t respect and treat all women equally so right from the start the bull**** is very easy to see through.
And yes, she does very blatantly hold hands with the nazis and women hating far right, she doesn’t get hijacked by then, she welcomes them with open arms because at the basis of her belief, she’s a bigot, so fellow bigots are all good and well, even if they hate her at heart as well, as long as they also hate the people she hates too, if you don’t want to be likened to Nazis and far right bigots, don’t happily associate yourself and your ‘cause’ with them, it’s simple as that really I’m afraid.

Trans people and women, were, up until around 2019 sharing spaces without any issue whatsoever, and then women have been propagandised/radicalised (mainly by men) into believing their world is being taken away and they are being replaced by a new group of "chicks with dicks" to quote our Cambridge educated lawyer.
I would be radicalised too, if that's what I believed. Everyone always believes they can see through propaganda, which of course only ever happens to other people, but all of us are susceptible to it.
On the other side of that, we have trans people just going about their lives, until they became the topic on everyone else's tongue, not to include in discussion, but to be attacked, marginalised and placed in fear. As a marginalised minority, they also have every right and I'd go beyond that to say duty, to actually fight for their lives, because eradicating trans genderism is just starting to be brought up in the US, which means it will be here too, soon enough.
That's a real and fundamental difference; the very people you all opine on everyday, now face these real and targeted threats consistently. I mean, what the fcuk are people doing having rallies to attack people. I know the Nazi thing gets overdone, but Jesus
I've obviously had my issues with TS, but he's tied himself in knots here to try and be understanding, but has been met with nothing more than weirdness about either supporting women, or supporting lady boys. It's just not true.
There are no solutions, no attempt to be understanding, just vitriol and abuse thrown at a marginalised community. I have issues with trans people in sports, and I think maybe that's because I played a lot of sports growing up, but none of you (I'll exclude ts here) are in any way interested in finding a way forward. I think the first time I ever posted on trans issues, I asked what solutions you had, and to this day, tibb is still way more interested in finding attack pieces; which is cool if that's what you want to do, but seriously, I never thought I'd be happy to see a M&H thread appear, because I have to say, most of you are being completely ridiculous.
If you can't see there is an all out culture war attack on trans people at this point, then you'll never see it, but keep up with this hateful language, and it will soon be followed by hateful actions, and then you won't be able to backpedal away from it. I know deep down, that's not what most of you want, but that's where the buy in to this constant noise ends up, because we've all seen one history documentary, or read one book at least.

And being pro-abortion is denying a baby's choice to be born. Unborn babies aren't fingernails or split ends which need trimming, and the morality of killing them doesn't have a consensus on any side.

Loosely I agree but the problems start to arise when people want to push their own personal moral stance as enforced law for all. There are lots of things that I personally find immoral that I don't think should be made illegal.

Personally I'm not a cheerleader for abortion (I prefer adoption out of the two) but I tend to notice that it is mainly evangelical Republicans (and the equivalent in other countries) that love to tell women if they can have an abortion, and to go to LT's point about "pro-life people all being women" as it's simply not true.

You've taken a stance that being skeptical/questioning of Posie Parker means being in support of the NZ mob or not condemning (or even maybe justifying) their violent actions which isn't a stance that anyone at all on this thread has actually taken.

I think politicians find this especially difficult to answer because, being politicians, their compulsion is to give an answer that won't offend anyone even if that means selective non-answering. But the simple fact is that on this issue... you can't. You can't take a stance of not offending anyone. Taking a simplistically firm stance in one direction will offend a large group of people, not answering will piss everyone off, and trying to divide the issue up and take a nuanced stance will clearly also piss off large numbers of people on all sides :joker:. There's no diplomatic voter-pleasing stance to take here so politicians need to just make a decision. Wee Nic ultimately ended up trying to walk a tightrope on the issue, tied herself in knots, and ended her decades-long career in a week.
