Nobody who truly believe in feminism could bring themselves to accept a coalition with the DUP. They are famously anti-women's rights.

Again scaremongering - the DUPs views on feminism will have no impact in Britain.

Of course they ****ing do, they are likely going to be part of a coalition that will run the country, if you don't think that their bigoted views won't have an impact then you are burying your head in the sand.

So if legislature which affects women is proposed by them, do you think the Commons would vote it through?

It'll have the effect of normalising the idea that women's and gay rights could be repealed, a coalition legitimises the DUP. The coalition will be dangerous as **** when it comes to promoting abusive attitudes towards women and the LGBT.

Look at the EU and how the result had the effect of increasing racially charged hate crimes in it's wake. People looked at Brexit and thought that their bigotry was justified and a similar thing will likely happen here.
