She is quite the woman in this post author period in her successful life

Does this woman have any personality outside of hating transwomen it's so sad to see.

Easy to forget when her twitter antics have become more memorable than anything she's released in the last decade.

[Cherie]

Has a politician ever singled out trans men for their support?

And yet no-one can point to anything actually bigoted or hateful...

Transwomen aren't women though there's no need to pretend they are, especially when the world (and women!) have enough to deal with ATM.

and pretending its so for some woke agenda is actually moving backwards

more power to her elbow

She won’t be happy until trans people are completely secluded from society, such a horrible, hateful woman, it’s a shame really, she could have been a torch carrier for decent conversation but she’s chosen to just out herself as an outright bigot and go down this route, she should be thoroughly ashamed, but anti-trans rhetoric is cool these days, her and her ilk have no issues shouting about what they are and they have the backing of the establishment and the media who have found their new victims

No, being a bigot = being a bigot, but you defending bigots in the name of ‘protecting women’ is nothing new

Personally I don't think that Niamh is Transphobic tbf.

Imo it's a tricky subject to solve without harming the rights of either group, imo everyone should be demanding that the Government comes up with a solution that pleases both sides rather than forcing either side to do something that most of them aren't comfortable doing.

And name calling isn't gonna help either I feel.

There is no way to please everyone, the only answer is ever compromise but unfortunately a large section of trans rights activism, and a section that's gaining significant traction with legislators and governments, simply won't accept that any compromise on this should never, ever, for any reason, place "individual comfort" or "desire for acceptance" above genuine physical safety concerns. That's the crux of what has women, IMO quite rightly, concerned about their rights and safety. The refusal to conceed that there IS a problem at all (and again I'll just say it; a rhetoric that comes prescribed straight from organisations like Stonewall) has inevitably lead to anger. It's gaslighting . Concerns that dangerous men will use new legislation to gain access to victims is met with "no never!" or at best "maybe but there's no proof of that". It's a flat out lie. They will, they do, they have.

Why do we never have trans men threatening born men with violence? Because they wouldn't bloody put up with it.

Also biological differences do actually matter... go figure

[Kizzy]

Me and my kids agree on most things.. they are lefties too. But we do differ massively on this, especially my gen z, he is disgusted by my views on this.
I am really conflicted myself too as I can appreciate the issues faced by the trans community, and yet I always find myself disagreeing with the politically advocated view on this issue.

I am all for anyone living how you like, one life .you do you and all that . But .. unless you grew up from a baby, infant, child, adolescent and young adult as a female then you haven't had the socialisation that shapes what I consider a woman. ( and obviously the same for men)
This is only my personal view, it might upset some and I am sorry for that, I've gone over and over it many many times but I can't change my stance on this.

Essentially what I'm saying is my belief is trans male and female can't be men and women as they haven't had the whole life experience.

[GoldHeart]

Well hang on a minute what exactly was Starmer supposed to say ? . I'm not even a fan of his , but did JK want him to start calling trans women "MEN" ? Or something ? . Starmer knows biologically they were born male.But they identify as female now.

I have agreed with the points JK Rowling has made with protecting womens rights etc,I'm a woman myself.

But it feels like this is a pointless rant she's gone on now or am I missing something?? .

Transphobes would have loved for him to say that, thankfully the things they feel emboldened to say behind the safety of their keyboard is not the reality of the real world.

That’s exactly what she and her hateful horde want people to do, they don’t want trans people, especially trans women, to be recognised as what they are, they want them marginalised and separated away from the rest of society because they don’t see them as legitimate, that’s what it all boils down to
