I am a cis woman, strong ally & advocate for all trans rights. For many years I have comfortably & happily shared my spaces with trans women & enby folk. I stand in solidarity with the trans community & use my platform to promote this

Went to the vet today wearing this t shirt. An older cis lady was there & she said I like your shirt & nodded towards the picture. She told me how sad it was & that she knew Brianna wouldn't be the only victim & how bad the hate against trans people is.

We chatted for quite a while about the trans community, trans kids & she was definitely knowledgeable about what is happening & how bad it is for trans people.

As a cis women, I can confirm this is not how I feel.
I have NEVER had an issue sharing my spaces with trans women.
The issues I have had in womens toilets in particular have come from other cis women and abusive cis males. NEVER trans women, ever.
For me and every cis woman I know this is not how we feel. Trans women are not a threat in 'women's spaces' it's all absurd. Also hey new followers, those of you who don't know - I don't sit on the fence, I support trans rights.

Latest article has brought about 5k hate messages not including the messages on the retweets. Most attacking my appearance and trying to fat shame me. It’s tiresome but I have to read them to see the nice messages as I want the people to see I’ve seen them and thank them.

There are lots of trans inclusive cis women & men in relationships with trans & non binary people.
And any woman who is,/ in a relationship with a trans woman, cis women in relationships with cis women, who have been in relationships with cis women, who are trans inclusive, bi, pan or queer. Don't forget them. It's a lot of women and certainly more than their membership.

My support for the trans community is unwavering.
The trans community is tiny, and we rely on allies sooo much. We are currently fighting just to exist - which is crazy. If you can help us, or even voice your support in the smallest way, I promise you it makes a MASSIVE difference. Particularly to those of us who are young ❤️🏳️⚧️

I will always stand with my trans family🏳️⚧️
I am a cis women, intersectional & inclusive feminist.
I stand against this continual bombardment on trans rights & will continual to be vocal & visible.

I stand with my trans siblings. I’ll fight ur corner & counter misinformation whenever I can. To do so doesn’t make me any less feminist. This is a confected tension designed to make cis women so scared they’ll forget they’ve been shat on for 13 years & vote Tory in 2024. 🏳️⚧️

This applies to every single woman whether you are trans or cis.
KJK is NOT about women's rights.
She was ok when women lost the right to abortions.
She was ok when Italy stripped lesbians names off children's birth certs.
She doesn't agree with IVF
The list goes on...
Hate preacher Kellie-Jay Keen (aka Posie Parker) announces that her end goal is to deny ALL trans people of vital healthcare:
“No body should have gender affirming surgery!”
