The phrase 'Transwomen are women' is easily rebutted with the phrase 'If Transwomen were women they'd just be called Women.' 🤷

I think that’ll be the next step. I’ve seen this type of linguistic creep being used elsewhere to gaslight us by rearranging the meaning of commonly understood words.

Trans is the most iditoic perversion of basic science and the most bizarre capture of Western values that has ever happened. Possibly in generations to come people will ask "What on earth were they thinking?" In the meantime we live in profoundly stupid times.

I blame transhausen parents for this crap. It’s Girl Guides not boys who feel girly guides 🤬

Thank you both for fighting the good fight. Common sense is back - hopefully!

I wish I shared your confidence. We live in a world where so many do not question the concept of gender identity. SM do great work - as a bystander it seems like trench warfare, tackling each situation, each organisation. But somehow ordinary folk have to try and take the debate back to the grass roots, i.e. questioning the validity of the deeply flawed ideology of gender identity. Biological, binary, immutable.

Thanks so much for continuing to apply your razor-sharp analysis to these issues. You, at least, are doing what it says on the tin. Onwards & onwards!

What parents take their little boys to a Guide group? What the hell are they thinking?

Go home, Pippa, you're drunk.

It's you who lied to the boys in the first place. It is you who have caused the harm.

I'm equally sad that the girls who have been coerced into accepting these perfectly nice kids into their group as something they are not have now been put in a really difficult position.
