I'm wondering where the off-ramp is? What sort of future are you B'Old Woman and others imagining?
Lesbians and other women with a commitment to feminism and to a form of society rejected by many - most - of those they stood alongside on an actual physical platform have said this was worth it in order to oppose transgender ideology. That's tiny. It's not okay, that's why I'm here, but it's tiny. When and how do you imagine gender critical feminism (or any other left-ish version) is going to stand up and say we are anti-transgender ideology but we are not anti-vax, anti-abortion, anti-unmarried women having sex, anti-illegitimate babies (in the USA we not anti-contraception is creeping up as a necessary statement) we are anti-semi-automatics and anti-USA gun culture in NZ, pro-real biological sex education etc. These people beside whom you have symbolically or actually stood are opposed to most of what you may have believed in all your lives. They didn't need your help. They could have had their conference without you and you could have gone on being a rational, pro-science, pro-biology, feminist person in support of a more equal and just society. You could have gone on writing letters and submissions, standing up for yourself and your life as well as being anti-trans. But you stood beside them who have contempt for the whole you and your whole life. What is your exit strategy?
Thanks Katrina, I have forwarded on to family in NZ.
Thanks Katrina for these links for those of us unable to attend.
Thank you Katrina, I was hoping I would be able to watch this somewhere.
Thanks Katrina :)
Thank you so much for sharing - I have spent the whole day listening and what a powerful event!
