The Internet Is Amazing For Unlearning What The Patriarchy Has Taught Us To Be Automatic. It's Even Better

This is exactly why TRAs are always homophobic and biphobic.

A lesbian, trying to be as kind as possible, has twisted herself into knots to convince herself that she's bisexual because she believes in the gender cult.

Their ideology harms every LGB person, because it says that no real sexualities exist. There are only labels that affirm TIMs and TIFs while lesbians, bisexuals and gay men are supposed to hate ourselves some more and get back into closets and question ourselves even more painfully. We're nothing but objects to be used and abused by them.

"I wish I wasn't that way" honey you're a lesbian and you have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. You're surrounded by conversion therapy rhetoric and it's wrong. You aren't having a "genital preference" - you like women. The entire female form. You're a female homosexual. It's okay to be a lesbian.

There is nothing wrong with you. You shouldn't have to hide in order to pacify a mans ego.

I don't know what makes me sadder; the bimbofication to become famous, or the fact that it worked.

Meanwhile, Maya Forstater was investigated by the police for 15 months over criticising a TIM doctor before it was dropped because there wasn't enough there to prosecute her for "malicious communications."

They're going to have to build a statue of JRK when this is all over. The most successful author in history and one of the most impactful British feminists in history being the same person is insane.

I think we’re getting lost in the weeds if we start distinguishing between good (morally acceptable) and bad (selfish and vain) reasons to use a surrogate. 

Surrogacy, as a practice, is exploitative and unacceptable. It doesn’t matter why you’re treating another woman (likely a much poorer woman) like a broodmare because there is no acceptable reason to do so. It makes no difference if you’re doing it because you cannot become pregnant yourself, or because pregnancy would cause life-threatening complications for you, or simply because you don’t have the time or inclination to endure a pregnancy yourself. It’s all the same thing. It’s all exploitation.

If in doubt, blame bisexual women.

The only women who don't deserve any grace or understanding when it comes to internalised misogyny and internalised hatred for their sexuality are bisexual women, just so you know. Biphobia is a fun little pasttime that means nothing.

Being misogynistic towards us as a group and blaming us for the things that men and heterosexuals do is definitely feminist, don't worry.

It bears stating from the onset that feminism is a broad church. There are splits and schisms within it, usually pertaining to what constitutes useful, meaningful action towards women's liberation. It is, however, to put the cart before the horse to start by placing into these furrows. One does not have to be a feminist to become one of the 'hounded', though to be feminist at all arguably requires agreement with the trio of Core Beliefs that follow. For the sake of both clarity and brevity, these three Core Beliefs are identifiable as the beliefs that are at question when a woman – feminist or not – is targeted for opprobrium in the gender wars.

Core Belief 1: Women are materially definable as a class of human being. That means that the category definition of 'woman' describes those humans who are adult and female. The only criterion for being a woman is to be a female girl who survives into adulthood. No other criteria are necessary: no personality traits, no interests, no adornment or style of dress, no mandatory life choice must flow from this definition. This is the realm of category definitions and not value judgements.

Core Belief 2: Women (as adult female humans), are culturally, legislatively and politically important, with their own sets of needs, rights and concerns. On the basis of being female, such women assert the need in particular for female-only spaces, sports, and other services on the basis of privacy, dignity and/or safety – or, simply, in recognition that equality and social justice cannot be achieved where males and females are included together with competing interests in whatever space is under discussion.

Core Belief 3: Where social, cultural or legislative trends are under way – ones that may diminish women's rights and/or liberation – then women have a right to meet and discuss freely that which affects their lives profoundly. As such, when women's events are protested disproportionately via attempts to shut them down or to intimidate attendees, the women involved will respond with even more rigorous calls for debate and reassertion of their right to freedom of speech and assembly.
