@DPJHodges Noticeable that you carefully frame your statement that TW might have to accept being treated as their actual sex as a criticism of how women speak. I think thats because it's too risky to just say it. And then you blame women for this instead of those who would attack you for it

@Scottish_Women It can't be WORIADS to be completely unable to tolerate other people disagreeing with you and to characterise not sharing your belief as harassment.

@msjlindsay What Hodge says is just pathetic. Vague pronouncements that other people could just solve this by being polite, no risk at all of falling foul of trans activists by saying no himself or sticking his neck out to defend a specific woman.

@Uraniumphile @holyroodmandy Sorry I realise that could come across as a bit unnecessarily snappy and I don't mean it to. Most of Marx is tedious & outdated tbh, but he is quite good on the reality of the lives of the working class and bang on about how unacceptable it is for humans to be treated that way

@Honeybee_24_7 @Uraniumphile @holyroodmandy They all went completely mad talking to each other on the internet and then a group of doctors rubber stamped it. And now it seems like it's too late to bring back any sort of sanity without some very invested people going even more bananas.

@Uraniumphile @holyroodmandy Ideally people with different beliefs should be able to tolerate each other and get along in the workplace. Ideally there should be some way to mutually accommodate each other. I just can't picture what tolerance could even look like with gender identity beliefs.

@backinyerpram @holyroodmandy Idk Upton seems consistent to me. Consistently insane, but nevertheless. I think Upton has really been immersed in all of the gender stuff. Really marinading in it.

Surely Upton saying that biological sex is a nebulous term that doesn't really mean anything is fantastic ammunition for Naomi's cross examination of people at NHS Fife. They can't possibly agree to that? And yet they have acted as if that makes sense.
DU Don't recognise the difference between those bodies. NC Will be some women using the space view you as a man DU Y any given population will inc some who don't respect or recognise trans is DU Biological sex is a nebulous term that doesn't really mean anything.

@sprolliehouse @mar2vickers @MrMalky @historywoman I just can't picture what coexisting with someone with Upton's beliefs could even look like. It's not like any other belief that where people can get along with each other in the workplace as professionals. There seems like far to much for one judge to unpick.

@Docstockk Presumably the judge will have weigh Upton's beliefs in their totality so it's best to have it all out. It's just so hard to see how people with such radical beliefs can coexist with everyone else, especially when they think not agreeing is abuse. It's a nightmare for workplaces.

@FeministRoar Looks amazing Is it dried shiitake? Can't imagine where I would find kelp and bonito flakes.

@stillnotanumbr @v_j_freeman Even the babies that froze to death in tents Even the children that were shot by snipers Even the premature babies left to rot in incubators This is no path to peace.

@FeministRoar Everyone likes to elevate lying to trans or NB people. But gender is more like an ugly Christmas jumper given to you by your aunt. You pretend to like it to avoid confrontation. It's not about kindness or dignity - those involve real connection between people.
