but that is just a basic strawman argument

A 6 foot 4 man should not compete in women's swimming

"BUT I HAVE FOUND ONE Crazy TWITTER USED WHO IS CRAZY SO THAT INVALIDATES YOUR CONCERN"

Im afraid Liam life is a little more complex than that..

Tbf for some people it is about the Sports & Bathrooms.

Admittedly though the people making these execution Tweets should be looked at by The Police, the way that they are speaking about this so casually should be alarming to anybody imo.

I have no sympathy for psychos on twitter calling for blood.

Sometimes it really is about the rights of women and girls, and nothing to do with agreeing with terminally online weirdos.

Speaking of JK Rowling, I admire how she totally refuses to be cowed by baying mobs wanting her silenced on an issue she feels strongly about…

'Preening, self-satisfied misogyny': JK Rowling slams Ireland's Eurovision act Wild Youth after the band 'cut all ties' with their creative director who called a knife-wielding transgender robber a man

JK Rowling has slammed Ireland's Eurovision entry after the group 'cut all ties' with a creative director who called a knife-wielding transgender robber a man.
Wild Youth said they had parted ways with creative director Ian Banham out of 'unity and kindness' after he referred to a trans attacker and convicted rapist as a man.
Zara Jade, 54, was jailed for nine years for stabbing and robbing a vulnerable victim and tying her to a chair before taking her card and withdrawing £300 from an ATM.
Ms Rowling condemned the band's move on Twitter and criticised a BBC article on Jade's arrest with the headline 'Woman jailed after stabbing and tying up victim.'
She said: 'The re-traumatisation of female rape survivors, including this man's victims, on seeing him called a woman by the press counts for nothing, naturally.
'The so-called kindness and inclusivity of Wild Youth is preening, self-satisfied misogyny.'
Mr Banham responded to a tweet critcising the BBC coverage of Jade, saying: 'It's a MAN! This clown world is ridiculous...'
Wild Youth lead singer Conor O'Donohoe had previously apologised to fans over Mr Banham's posts after the band said it had 'cut all ties' with the creative director.
Mr O'Donohoe said: 'First off I want to apologise with my whole heart to anyone who has been hurt or even had to read such horrible tweets.
'He goes against everything I stand for, his tweets make me feel sick reading them.
'Writing this song and writing these lyrics was writing about what I believe in. Acceptance Unity and kindness. Ian will have nothing to do with Wild Youth on our Eurovision journey.
'Again from the bottom of my heart. I'm sorry to anybody who had to read these tweets and was effected [sic] by them. '
In March, Jade admitted wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, robbery, fraud and false imprisonment and was jailed for nine years with an extended licence period of three years.
The victim was strapped to an electrically powered chair by her ankles, knees, chest and arms, before she was tilted back, and the power was switched off.
Bradford Crown Court previously heard how her victim remained fixed in place for a few hours at their shared flat in Halifax while Jade used her card to withdraw £300 before later untying her.
The attacker was also convicted of rape in 1998 when identifying as a man.

Yeah, where is their 'unity and kindness' for the rape victim? Unbelievable self serving BS. I hope it totally backfires on them.

2023 and misgendering is a bigger crime then actual rape, am I shocked? No. It's a very sad situation though

The way I see it if you've committed something as vile as rape or murder then don't expect me to get your pronouns correctly.

So you care about this but you dont care about people openly holding up placards on the street calling for death to anyone who raises an issue?


both are extremist views

and you stood silent while women are being punched in the face, and have to be removed from rallies for their own safety.....nothing to see here at all Liam right?

Thank goodness there weren't thousands of trans rights activists threatening to rape and murder JK Rowling or set her house on fire for writing an article or anything like that. "Punch a TERF day" was another fun twitter fad I believe.

Not that I'm excusing any joking about or threatening violence from either "side". It just comes off a bit hollow when you ignored volleys of the same from those you happen to support. In fact, if I remember rightly, there were members on here actively cheering it on. I'm not sure if you were one of them, to be fair. Some of your allies certainly were, though.

I remember the one psycho that was holding a banner saying that they wanted to "behead a TERF" which again is so alarming at how people just casually say/write these things and they're above the age of 14.

And that's wrong imo.

Just like those executioner Tweets that Liam has highlighted is also wrong and both occasions should lead to arrests.

People on both sides need to seriously calm down when it's reaching that level, especially when a lot of the issues that are happening are being encouraged by the Media, and the Government not wanting to reach a compromise that keeps both sides happy.
