Remember, disagreeing with me is literal violence and a hate crime. Adult Human Male. “Brilliant comic writing”: Glinner. “Hates work”: Gavin Williamson.
I’m hearing people saying that People Who Don’t Have Driving Licences shouldn’t be driving on roads.
A reminder for bigots: People Who Don’t Have Driving Licences have been driving on roads for decades. You’ve probably driven next to one lots of times and not even noticed.

OBITUARY: Gender ideology.
After a long, embarrassing, decline gender ideology died suddenly on yesterday morning. As many of you know, Gender Ideology lost its respectable face some time ago and so this was not unexpected.
At the end a doctor put a stake through its heart.

I have to speak up in defence of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre.
Like all men, I hope I never end up needing the ERCC. But if the day did come when I became a fetishistic, selfish, arsehole with no regard for anyone except my own stupid self I know they’d be there for me.

Hello
@Primark
.
I am male, and present in a stereotypically male way.
If I attend one of your stores and tell the staff I identify as a woman will I be welcome to use the women’s changing rooms?
Just watched this interesting documentary where people discuss whether or not it’s OK to commit sexual assault.
The general consensus seems to be that it’s absolutely fine. Because it’s about their own choices.
To hell with everyone else’s, obviously.
Matthew Hopkins has insisted that he always supported calls for evidence-based witchcraft detection during his tenure as Witchfinder General between 1644 and 1647.
He claimed, “You doe me a great deale of wrong in every of these particulars.”

Absolutely astonishing spin from Hunt here. Well done

for including examples that show this, and of course to the indefatigable

@KatyMontgomerie
Assertion: A woman wouldn’t have been traumatised by a man being in a changing room.
Evidence: A young boy wasn’t traumatised while getting changed in the same room as girls at school.
TRAs don’t know about the colours used by the suffragettes, and so assume people who don’t agree with their insane ideology are “stealing queer valour”.
Imagine being this ridiculous.
Massive step forward as Labour confirms it will only let a man into access women’s intimate spaces after a doctor has confirmed beyond any doubt that they are mental.
This should put everyone’s mind at ease.

Having a driving licence is a social construct. As a Person With a Driving Licence, People Who don’t Have a Driving Licence are not a threat to me and are welcome to drive on the road next to me.
People Who Don’t have Driving Licences are People Who Have Driving Licences!

They’re a tiny fraction of the population. You’re far more likely to be killed by someone with a driving licence than someone who doesn’t have a driving licence
People Who Don’t Have Driving Licences aren’t a danger to you, they’re just trying to drive!

People Who Don’t Have Driving licences are one of the most marginalised groups in society. Not only are they often stopped by the police, they are also much more likely to be killed in car accidents than people who do have driving licences.

Just found out that, after asking for suggestions for words that rhymed for a poem the class were writing, my 10 year old child’s teacher insisted that “beseech” is not a real word.
And a sea anemone isn’t a real thing.
Scottish education going from strength to strength again.
This gatekeeping of drivinglicencehavinghood is disgusting.
People Who Don’t Have Driving Licences are People With Driving Licences. It’s LITERALLY IN THE NAME:
“PEOPLE WHO don’t HAVE DRIVING LICENCES”!

Too often we only listen to people who know how to drive and have driving licences. But we now need to listen to people who don’t have driving licences and hear from them about which way THEY go round roundabouts and what colour of lights THEY like to stop at.

People Who Have Driving Licences became drivers easily by sitting tests and things. People Who Don’t Have Driving Licenses had a much harder journey and so have even more right to be considered as People Who Do Have Driving Licences than people who actually do have them.

Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch has not responded to my invitation to discuss the Govt's troubling failure to ban conversion therapy, adequately fund sexual health clinics & enable trans self-ID via a legal Statutory Declaration
What'she afraid of?
Before we unthinkingly make the ERCC a safe place for women we need to think of the needs of insane men who dress as grotesque parodies of women and make everyone’s skin crawl.
Who speaks for them? Where do they go?
The ERCC is the only organisation that puts them first.

I asked Scarlett Johansson a reasonable question about why she has never publicly admitted self-tapping wood screws are superior to self-drilling wood screws. I am not surprised that she has not responded because, of course, self tapping wood screws piss all over self-drillers.
@GinnySanderson
It will exclude trans women.
Also pigeons with broken wings, builders looking to purchase sand, athletes on need of high altitude endurance training and Ford Focuses in need of MOTs.
Because the service is not designed to address any of those needs, and that’s fine.
“You sleep in the same bed as your partner at home, therefore you can have no reasonable objection to being asked to sleep in the same bed as a stranger in any other situation.”
Yes, these people truly are this dumb.
That’s why the ERCC matters. That’s why we endanger it at our peril.
Remember, before men infiltrated organisations like the ERCC and subverted them there was just nowhere for dangerous weirdos to safely victimise the most distressed and traumatised women in our society.

We seem to be creating a new special class of people who cannot be challenged when it comes to them being around children.
How did that work with priests?
With teachers?
With politicians?
With celebrities?

@AkiretaHK
Why do I do what I do, Sean?
That’s a good question.
I suppose, fundamentally, it’s because I don’t like bullies.
You see, I think people should be able to live any way they want.

“Yes but, although I am male, I would like to be female and want to treat female patients in intimate settings for reasons, inexplicably, nobody seems interested in exploring.”
“Oh, that’s fine then, crack on!”
Who could have an issue with that?
@AgingWhiteGay
So…we are supposed to feel sorry for a rapist when they fail in their attempt to have sex with someone without consent?
Not me.
I hope the person targeted by this predator is OK.
Lots of TRAs saying they are “disappointed” in Richard Ayoade giving a positive review of
@Glinner
’s book.
In much the same way someone in the mafia might say they are “disappointed” that you are not willing to pay them protection money.
Those who loved Gender Ideology ask you to join them in desperately gibbering pish for the next week or so before quietly pretending you never had anything to do with it.
No flowers.

What are PWDHADLERDs (People Who Don’t Have a Driving Licence Exclusionary Radical Drivers) going to do?
Have someone stationed beside every car to check people’s licences before they drive?!?

Just looking at the lyrics of “A New England”. They seem so problematic.
Suppose you were 21 but had terminal cancer and wouldn’t live until your birthday?
Or you’re trans and “grow up to be a man” is hurtful?
You’d think that Billy Bragg would have some sympathy. But, no.

Although Gender ideology enjoyed a short life it was loved by many politicians, celebrities, and sex offenders.
For its part, Gender ideology loved children and always took a great interest in them. Its death leaves a number of children without its influence. Thank God.

legally a man?
KM - MW is a woman, a biological woman.
NC - could all of your staff be transwomen then
KM - I'm not going to comment on that
NC - KT responded to the SU after discussing with MW,
KM - yes
NC - if KT had to ask MW, then how could that be misconduct
Lots of talk recently about who was and wasn’t targeted during the Holocaust, We know 6 million Jews were murdered by the Nazis, and millions of Roma, Sinti, homosexuals, Poles and others. And we know about the 87 million trans people and 42 million non-binary folk.

Many of you who remember Gender Ideology’s troubled relationship with Truth and Sanity will be comforted to know that, after many years of absence, both were present at the end.

Nobody has ever answered this:
If a male can identify as a woman and we accept that because biology doesn’t really matter…
Can a trans woman identify as a “cis woman”?
If not, why not? Is it something to do with biology?

Absolutely outrageous.
No respect for boundaries. Sounds like a teenage boy.

How obnoxious and arrogant.
Females are entitled to feel uncomfortable around males.
@billybragg
@SVPhillimore
@crit_gen
What an astonishing position.
To allow others to express an opinion gives licence for abusive behaviour?
But, uniquely, men turning up and screaming at women and drowning them out with sound systems to stop them speaking likely isn’t?
I’m at a loss here.
@Celtic_Ray
There is no peer reviewed evidence of that.
Anyway, paying for insurance makes people unhappy and they might harm themselves.
So you can either have a living Person Who Doesn’t Have A Driving Licence Or Insurance or a dead Person Who Does Have a Driving Licence and Insurance.
@GraceBrodie
@LockedUpWithMen
This is fantastic.
Incredible that it’s 2023 and it has to be explained to people why males shouldn’t be in female prisons, while they sit considering it like it’s some complex aspect of quantum mechanics.
People need to stop pretending they don’t understand this.
So as I wrote earlier, I’m struggling with this piece from
@thetimes
and
@hadleyfreeman
, as it simply isn’t very good. If I were the editor, I’d worry about the fanfare when Hadley came over from the Guardian as the new voice of common sense. This is anything but. (1/13)
Like many this morning, my thoughts are with the Cardiff sex offender community who are coping with this tragic loss.

I’m on about year three of arguing with delusional men that their needs and beliefs aren’t more important than everyone else’s.
@AkiretaHK
My union went the same way. One senior member who is a woman told me she had worked for women’s rights all her life, trying to help victims of domestic abuse. And now she was scared to speak in meetings because people with blue hair and weird ideas were holding court.

@AkiretaHK
My wife is a teacher and she told me about girls that asked out of class to go to the toilet because it was the only way they could go and hope to avoid the boys. And I didn’t think that was right.
Still don’t.

@AkiretaHK
Then in schools I worked in I saw girls toilets taken away, turned into mixed sex toilets. Nobody consulted them.
And I learned about girls in schools I worked in going home at lunchtime because they didn’t want to go to the toilet with boys.

@AkiretaHK
I couldn’t really get on board wi try that, but I didn’t think that much of it.
Then I saw people being “cancelled” and victimised. By bullies.
I heard lesbians being told they were transphobic if they didn’t want to be in relationships with males.

@AkiretaHK
I saw people saying things that were a bit odd. Fair enough. But then they said only bigoted and evil would disagree. They started saying that people shouldn’t be allowed to speak, shouldn’t be employed, weren’t welcome in a civilised society, if they expressed disagreement.

1. If you define a female as someone who can become pregnant, do they cease to be women after they’ve had a hysterectomy?
2. Have you ever tried thinking for yourself?

I don’t pretend to know much, or anything, about feminism. I’ve read the Female Eunuch but that’s about the extent of my knowledge.

And women I knew said they didn’t agree either, but said they were scared to say anything.

I saw the bullying, the people who found nobody would talk to them anymore if they didn’t toe the line.
I saw people insisting that any man who said he was a woman, however he dressed or behaved, even if he didn’t have surgery, was a woman in every sense.

@redlianak
This whole argument is racist.
It comes from the TRA side’s instinctual feeling that white women are the default type of woman, and black women are some kind of add-on, as different to women as males are.
The argument here is “Well, you let black women in, why not males?”
@AkiretaHK
But now a cohort of extremely aggressive, unpleasant individuals are behaving entirely unreasonably and insisting that nobody else’s feelings matter.
And that’s not right. And I believe it is making life much more difficult for people to live together in peace.

At 13.17 a trans man talks about bringing a man back home with him and them having sex.
The next morning it became clear the man saw the trans man as a woman.
At 14.38 we learn how ridiculous that was and how the man was clearly in denial about being gay.
Interesting.
@AkiretaHK
I don’t hate trans people at all.
But make no mistake.
I hate you.
I hate people like you who spread hate and misery by bullying those who don’t agree with them.
And I won’t ever stop pointing out what you are doing.
/29
This is becoming ridiculous. Someone, somewhere has to be held accountable for this and it has to stop. Whether it’s Police Scotland, Sturgeon, or someone else in government someone has to say this is not the type of country we live in
Look what we’ve become. This is a disgrace.

American Bully Exclusionary Radical Feminists are crazy.
What are you going to do? Conduct DNA tests on dogs whenever they go out?
They’ve been using parks for years. Like, pretty sure they’re just looking for somewhere to go for a walk. There not looking to bite you, hun!
I live in an area where a lot of young guys own American Bully XLs, often un-neutered (the dogs, not the guys), and sometimes walking around off the lead (again, the dogs). And I've found myself actively avoiding them and feeling kind of paranoid in the presence of XLs...
Mr Hopkins points out in his 1647 book, “The Discovery of Witches” that any complaints about his methods would have been raised at the time.
Mr Hopkins welcomed the review and insisted he always advocated for non-combustion-based methods of witchcraft amelioration.
