Personally, I don’t believe it was coincidence that trans activists started getting more of their requests for intrusion into women’s spaces and sports granted as women started gaining more positions of power and authority.
Yes, I too have decided that empathetic female political leaders have been cunningly targeted as soft touches by the narcissistic trans rights activists. It's one of the most depressing aspects of this cult and I think of our modern societies more generally. Instead of being 'cruel' to be kind, we are now effectively being 'kind' to be cruel. What a mess.
Women are not always nurturers or kind or maternal. However women have such expectations imposed. When we deviate and put safety and yes self interest and concern for the vulnerable at the forefront it upsets the patriarchal polis. Safety for women and safeguarding for children has again been undermined, erased by male influencr. The men who would be accepted as women whom I know are professionals with financial stability and ex wives or 'selfabasing' women including girl children in their lives. I have no sympathy.They are the problem.
Agreed - women are more emotionally charged. And in my case, and my friends, the children are the priority. And we do not view allowing biological men in our girls spaces, or teaching kids that they are essentially born genderless and that their biological/physical make up is meaningless, as compassionate or kind! It's abhorrent and an abuse against women and girls..not to mention, an abuse against children's rights to boundaries.
I don’t understand, either, how parents and teachers can teach and encourage children to have boundaries, but that all flies out the window when a man puts on a dress and lipstick.
Hello from Terf Island 🏴. Couldn’t agree more Katrina. I, for one, have very few more effs to give, particularly AGPs larping as women. I’m desperately worried about the sheer numbers of girls falling for the pernicious, evil cult of gender ideology. It’s as great a social contagion as anorexia was in the 80s. I believe your analysis of the reasons for men invading our spaces is sound. I’m going to tweet this & forward it to PITT parents. )Parents with Inconvenient Truths about Trans.
Hello back from the other side of the planet :-) Maybe we’ll be able to
proudly call ourselves Terf Zealand one day. Thank you for sharing what I have written, I appreciate it - even though X (Twitter) has a beef with Substack and shadow bans tweets with even the smallest whiff of Substack in them - sigh. What’s your X handle? Mine is @KatrinaBiggs2.
When X banned me recently they put me on restrictions that I could only look and not contribute. But they still tried to sell me on their 'better access' which I see they are now running out to NZ & ? in a trial. But I gave them more flack by email for both restricting my account and offering to give me better access if I paid (would I get my handle back to be able to comment though) and pretty soon I had no access at all.
Thanks for this Katrina. I have just read that popular US podcaster, Joe Rogan is
increasingly taking issue over the forced compliance of transgender athletes.
He urged people to speak out over the topic ‘if you care at all about biological women’ .
He has been bringing the topic up numerous times and his listeners have grown to over
11 million people per episode.
That sounds good!

True, women aren't always kind and nurturing - they can be very 'discerning' about that. It was just a generalisation.

Substack seems to be pushing Facebook right now.
What does that mean? That anything with a Facebook link gets the algorithms all excited?
If you click share above then Facebook is the only social media that comes up unless you click 'other'. Substack used to push Twitter interactions.
Ah, yes - the tiff between Twitter and Substack.
I’m Liz Parker AKA not1fish on X . Didn’t know about the X & substack thing. I, too, look forward to the day when all this gender woo woo is history.
