It's not just about stranger danger. I've known many creepy men in my life and wouldn't want to share a bathroom with them. Most GC people aren't specifically worried about TW, we're worried about self-id allowing any male to legitimately use women's toilets.

Brilliant FAQ on Mumsnet 💖 These FAQs will be heavily related to the "transgender debate" because that is a hot topic right now. mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_ri…

I do not have a gender identity. I am neither 'cis' nor 'trans'. I believe the concept of 'gender identity' enforces sex stereotypes & heteronormativity, harming female & LGB people. On these grounds I believe 'gender identity' is a regressive concept that should be rejected.

1. I keep seeing people making this kind of argument, when discussing trans issues. Intersex people like @mrkhtake2 and scientists like @TriciaFrasman and @FondOfBeetles are becoming justifiably exhausted by having to correct the fundamental misconceptions behind it.

5. All this bickering about edge cases (intersex people, infertile women, etc etc) is irrelevant to the underlying truth (which everyone learns in infancy) that every person is *perceived* by all other people as being either male or female. Anyone who pretends otherwise is lying.

Today, I have seen tweets asserting that ‘speculation’ regarding a person’s biological sex is perfectly acceptable, and that intersex people ‘can be’ women. Enough.

What women are actually saying when they refuse to use someone's chosen pronouns: I won't participate in a misogynistic homophobic ideology that obfuscates female oppression, erases our lived experiences & reinforces existing power structures, preventing liberation.

@urcrazytoo @LilyLilyMaynard @RobbieQtoronto Her mother is labelling her as 'different from other girls' and making a video about how different she is. What's wrong with giving the message that Lily, like every other kid her age, is entitled to have her own likes and interests without being labelled 'different'?

@LilyLilyMaynard What the hell has society come to, that this child is being labelled as 'different from other girls' and on a 'different path'? She's just a girl with her own likes and dislikes, her own personality. Newsflash: all children are different and that's ok! They don't need labels.

Here’s the sad thing about being a female in research. I cannot take my husband to events without people assuming he is the reason we are attending. Today I was referred to as the “less significant” other. No. I am the invited speaker. #womeninSTEMM
