- I effectively lost five years of my life. There were many hoops to jump through but they were nothing like those you’ve described, there was no pandering to stereotypes and they were all absolutely necessary. 5/10

I say this as both a transsexual and a victim of rape who was directed to the local rape crisis service (I declined). No male person, whether they call themselves a ‘transwoman’, ‘transgender’ or ‘transsexual’, should be allowed anywhere near a service intended for women.

RA: Also we had someone in their 60s - she wanted a women-only group therapy context, and ERCC said they were "trans inclusive" and she said "is that women only?" - and a few days later got an email from ERCC saying she was not suitable for their service.

I’ve been transsexual for over thirty years, Cashman, during which time ‘they’ only came for me to dish out postgraduate degrees and offer contracts for very well remunerated jobs. Mate, you haven’t got the faintest clue as to what you’re chuntering on about.
First they came for trans people and they did nothing. Next they came for …..
If you do not speak out then you are complicit.

Mate, perhaps you could explain to me, an actual transsexual of several decades vintage, exactly what rights I’m denied which every other UK citizen enjoys? Last time I looked, the right to enter a building without being blocked by a bunch of violent misogynists was one of them.

Mate, I don’t know whether it’s escaped your limited cognitive faculties but so-called ‘transwomen’ ARE the patriarchy, the colonisers of female spaces and the silencers of women’s voices. All of this was blatantly apparent even before yesterday’s events at Edinburgh Uni.
@Strobe_Lightly
@BrainDoctorate
@trans_safety
Strange cause I thought that was because you try to appease the cishet patriarchy by being one of "the good ones" who is trans but by their standards. A well behaved trans. One they can trot out to show the bad ones how it ought to be.

I’ve been an MtF (‘male-to-female’) transsexual for over thirty years, yet I’m still more of a bloke than Whittle will ever be.
For decades, Fertility/Gynae clinics have counselled girls who have not menstruated, & women who are found to not have ovaries (PAIS OR CAIS), or have ovaries streaked with testicular material (mosaicism)
They never say “you are not a women”

Kelley, I’ve asked before, I’ll ask again. Can you explain to me, a ‘transsexual’ of several decades vintage and a successful academic, precisely what human rights I lack and exactly how I’ve been ‘pushed to the margins’ of a society that’s bent over backwards to accommodate me?
We need to start listening. Listening to the people who are pushed to the margins of our society. Listening to those who want to protect and extend human rights rather than dismantle them. Listening to global leaders who are horrified by what we are becoming.

I’m on my way to a conference on Mariology and gender. Predictably, because academic theology has long since been colonised by ‘trans’ ideologues, one of the speakers has pronouns and the ‘trans’ flag in her Twitter bio. I shall not be backward in coming forward!

Penny, I’ve been openly ‘trans’ in all of those places for over 30 effing years. Do us all a favour mate, next time you feel compelled to utter banal inanities, engage with whatever cognitive faculties you possess before tip-tapping away on your smartphone keyboard.
Fascinated to know the answer to this one. Can any ‘Gender Critical’ activists name any parts of society where they think it’s ok for people to be openly trans? Political institutions? Universities? Hospitals? Schools? The media? Can you name three places trans people DO belong?

Dr Sian Lacey Taylder and myself, both of us very senior transsexuals, send you HUGE support and solidarity. If necessary, we’re happy to repeat whatever you Tweeted, in person and to the police. I think WE need to get arrested to highlight the stupidity of this action.

Denning. In my 30+ years of being transsexual not once have I been the subject of threatened or actual violence by ‘TERFs’ in particular or women in general. Your assertion is 24 karat mendacious poppycock. Women, on the other hand are constantly abused by so-called ‘transwomen’.
@Itsonlyhimb0
@Sorelle_Arduino
No-one is denying that any of this is real. I don't know why you think I am.
But it's only part of the full picture.
There is violence threatened and committed on both sides.
But you can't claim that it shows all trans people are violent any more than it shows all TERFs are.

And I’d also remind you,
@AmeliaMichael
, that the vast majority of so-called ‘transwomen’ (aka female impersonating ‘trans’ identifying males) remain in permanent possession of their love guns and prairie oysters which makes them a very real threat to women’s safety and welfare.

Baldwin, as a transsexual who’s old enough to have campaigned vociferously against S28 in the 80s, I’m horrified that so many blokes like you are prepared to throw women in general and lesbians in particular under a bus to pander to the fantasies of your fellow biological males.

What you're saying, Ghul, is that to avoid being intimidated and physically intimidated by a bunch of rabidly misognyist males, women should meekly submit and stay at home. And that the right of women to congregate takes second place to the fantasies of so-called 'transwomen'

As a ‘transsexual’ who went through a painful, destructive ‘transition’ process 30 years ago I wholeheartedly and unequivocally concur with

Hothersall, I'm a 56-year-old transsexual. I lived through the anti-gay moral panic of the 80s too and I'm here to tell you that the privileges and indulgences being granted to so-called 'trans' people today has got absolutely f**k all to do with what was done to gay people then.

I have to say,
@UKLabour
, that as a transsexual of several decades vintage, with over thirty years personal and academic experience of these issues, these three proposals will make it impossible for me, a left of centre voter, to support you at the next general election.
The Labour Party will always be committed to building a society where the trans community feel safe and respected.
Labour will:
🏳️⚧️ Introduce tougher sentences for LGBT+ hate crime
🏳️⚧️ Ban conversion therapy in all forms
🏳️⚧️ Modernise the outdated Gender Recognition Act

Isn’t that strange? I’m a transsexual and in 30 years, several of which were spent in Scotland, I’ve faced zero harassment for simply living my life. During that time institutions have gone out of their way to accommodate me whilst women continue to suffer abuse on a daily basis.

Except, Gardner, so-called ‘transwomen’ represent a very real physical as well as societal threat to women. And let me remind you, as an actual ‘transsexual’, that far from being ‘stigmatised’, so-called ‘transwomen’ are society’s most privileged and pandered to minority.

What I find ‘disgusting’,
@KateOsborneMP

Well this is unfortunate, Grady. You see, I’m a transsexual who’s been in academia, more on than off, since I ‘transitioned’ in the early 1990s. And as a student and lecturer, I’ve yet to experience any of these ‘despicable and coordinated attacks’. Someone’s telling porky pies!
At a time of increasingly despicable and coordinated attacks on trans people in wider society, I’m proud to lead a union that stands unequivocally in solidarity with the trans community.
Unions must lead the fight against oppression - in and out of work.

And here’s the rub,
@BillyBragg
. I’m both a transsexual and an academic authority on queer theology. I’ve written about it, other people have even written about me writing about! So from that knowledge I can tell you that there’s FAR more to queer theory than ‘trans’ ideology.
Tell us, Bragg, in between talking down to women like
@TheFamousArtBR
, who are clearly more schooled in these issues than you’ll ever be, why do you continually expose your complete and ignorance on social media?

I'm beginning to think I'm some sort of freak - or rather even more of a freak😉. In 30+ years of being transsexual I've NEVER been spat at, had drinks tipped over me or had bottles and stones thrown at me. The only threats I've had have come from 'trans' ideologues.
"I've had people sending me videos of people being beheaded and telling me that I'm going to be next. It's just absolutely hideous."
