Apparently there is a belief held among certain members of the trans community that we should go back in time … back to the days of the DSM III in particular – at least for what is now referred to as Gender Dysphoria. (If you wish to read the DSM

The Cracked Crystal Ball II: Speaking of False Premises
Back in the comments over here, we have quite a doozy of a comment that warrants a more detailed response, because there are underlying assumptions and beliefs that are encompassed that range from misguided to flat out wrong. Wow – where to begin with this? Let’s start with long
Continue readingThe Cracked Crystal Ball II: When An Argument Starts From A False Premise …
This essay came up on my Twitter feed this morning. Titled “In Defence of Gender“, it’s a lengthy piece of writing which attempts to justify taking a “both sides” approach to the current uproar over transgender rights – or perhaps I should say, inclusion of transgender women in society –

Apparently, J. Michael Bailey is “back”, and he wants to make himself out as another Jordan Peterson – beset by the onslaught of “woke” attacking his work. Bailey’s the same researcher who tried to define transgender people based mostly on his interviews of drag queens in a book titled “The

The discourse around transgender people often breaks into two sides screaming at each other, one arguing that 'gender is a social construct', and the other stamping their feet and yelling that such an argument denies the biological realities of women. Both positions are correct from certain perspectives, but the "biological"

Posted on July 12, 2019 by thetranswidow Sex and the Mathematics of a Binary So much debate around whether sex is a binary or a spectrum. The thing is, a binary is a mathematical thing. And there isn’t any need to debate mathematical things. They are easy to prove. I’m

Hey folks, the woke internet is doing it’s best to deplatform and silence critical analysis and criticism of gender ideology. Here’s the thing, if your ideology wasn’t shit to start with, it could withstand critique and still be coherent. It isn’t, thus the censorship. The following article was removed from

Jonathan Best takes a shot at framing some of the key issues in this debate. From first hand experience, I have to agree with what Mr.Best has to say. There is very little oxygen available to question, and even less to argue the trans-interpretation of sex and gender.

The great part is that you (genderists) really can’t. It’s like well women are like this and this in society (insert toxic gender role here) and men are like this in society (insert toxic gender role)… You see, if your touchstones for your ‘gender identity’ are the fucking patriarchal approved

Accessing a space where gender can be discussed is often fraught with hazards. Many transactivists are violently opposed to hearing about, never mind discussing, the recent trends in gender identity. When calls for discussion are met with thought terminating statements -“transwomen are women” or manipulative statements “misgendering is violence and

A quite comprehensive list. Female erasure is a serious problem in our society and we should move to ensure that the rights of Women are preserved. “Here is a list of the Human Rights of Women that so-called Transgender Rights are eliminating. No one is saying Trans folk should not

Consider this conversation and then juxtaposition it with all the chatter one hears about ‘gender identity’ and ‘gender expression’. Add to your lens the notion of male privilege and how it often plays out when it comes to respecting the boundaries of females. (not) Funny how that works. http://auntiewanda.tumblr.com/post/160517895825/cecaeliawitch-this-was-a-pretty-grand-moment-and

“Every single time I hear a transactivist or MTT person call us ‘cis’ or ‘cis privileged’ as a woman I am going to assume that they think the following experiences of being a woman privilege us: The number one greatest industry in the world is the buying, selling and trafficking
