Feminist. Not the fun kind. [UK] Low tolerance of misogynists and homophobes, particularly from the US. Compliance is not consent.

@callthistea.bsky.social:
Oh hello AssEater, I missed this earlier. And what a charming name. A huge apology for not replying to your friendly message before now. I'm really glad you got the #BeKind memo. How are you this evening?

Anglesey, Cemlyn Nature Reserve

I bet you both smell of shit #ShitTshirt inspired by @erlebnis.bsky.social. Thank you for the calm, kind words.

Screenshot of post from Sonia Sodha: Hi Emily, it’s the Equality Act that says single sex services can’t admit people of the opposite sex. The Code of Practice simply explains it to service providers. If you want services organised on the basis of gender identity not sex you need to advocate for a change in the law. There’d be a lot of opposition to that (including from me) because of the impact on women, including domestic abuse survivors. Happy to put you in touch with a specialist lawyer if you want to know more about the relationship between the law and guidance.

Extract from Flipping Patriarchy's Clitionary by manwhohasitall: The Clitionary Welcome to the Clitionary. Or, if you prefer, the Oxford English Clitionary. The Clitionary is not subordinate to the Dick-tionary. Nor is it an afterthought or a mystery. It is a challenge to and a spoof of traditional dictionaries. It holds up a mirror to the bias and sexism hiding in the English language. It is stimulation for the feminist mind.

Screenshot of tweet by Alison Golding (14:42, 18 May 2026): An HR professional has apparently deemed it a protected charateristic under the Equality Act 2010 for adults to indentify as children, and that it is gross misconduct to criticise it on a private social media account outside of work.
I am lost for words.

Is it morally wrong for transwomen to claim to be women, Holly Lawford-Smith, 2026 Abstract text: Just as black people resisted Rachel Dolezal’s claim to be black, gender-critical feminists (and radical feminists before them) have resisted transwomen’s claims to be women. Their resistance has met with a very different reception: it is characterized as dehumanizing; hateful; transphobic; bigoted; even fascistic. There has been no serious consideration of the gender-critical feminist position—at least, by anyone who isn’t themself part of the small group of gender-critical philosophers—in the philosophical literature. It is usually ignored. In this paper, I want to engage with one of the gender-critical feminists’ most serious normative claims. In their view, it is morally wrong for transwomen to claim to be women (more basically, it is morally wrong for men to claim to be women—but transwomen are the only men doing this). My question is, are they right? This is the first philosophy paper to address the normative claim—and thus one of the central tensions between so-called ‘trans-inclusive feminism’ and gender-critical feminism—head on.

Dishonest weasel #ShitTshirt inspired by @critfacts.bsky.social

You seem like the kind of dishonest weasel who would conflate gender identity with gender performance/presentation and then pretend you're defending natal femalehood or some crap.

Of a certain demograhic, dear #ShitTshirt reads: Ironically most gender Criticals look more like transwomen than many transwomen themselves. I think this is why so many gender Criticals are of a certain demographic

New #ShitTshirt just dropped! Thanks so much for the inspiration @sammyrach.bsky.social for this true work of art. I spent ages on it as you can tell. Available from the usual outlets and in grey.

Fused plug entitled MYSTERY! using Dynamo label tape. What is it for? No one knows!

Excellent #ShitTshirt design 'I've not got the time'- a black tshirt with text that reads "To be honest, I’ve not got the time to attend to the annihilation of transpersons"

Screenshot quote from Helen Puckrose, reads: “Liberals can vary enormously on ethical stances towards gender. They can be socially conservative, gender critical or gender queer.
What they are united on is the responsibility to apply this to their own lives and not impose it on other people.
Those who value traditional gender roles can build relationships and communities around them, advocate for their value, and still respect the right of others to live differently.
Those who are gender critical can organise their lives around rejecting gender roles and stereotypes, while respecting others' freedom to adopt them and limiting their objections to criticism. Those who understand themselves as genderqueer can live and present themselves however they wish, while recognising that others are not obliged to affirm gender identity, are free to criticise it, and that biological sex continues to exist and have significance.”

Screenshot Victoria Smith @glosswitch, Twitter, 27 March 2026: Telling girls their right to defy gender stereotypes without abuse or exclusion is dependent on them accepting male people as female is obscene. Trans activism demands that femaleness and femininity are conflated, and cannot bear the idea that "unfeminine" women and girls get to "count" as female if male people who obsess over femininity don't.“

Screenshot from the dreaded Twitter of an infographic created by Joss Prior on Trans inclusion and UK law: What it says (and doesn't) plus my question: Hi Joss, would you say more about ‘competing rights’ as usually those arguing for trans inclusion strongly deny there are any competing rights at all. Thanks
