I’m often sneeringly accused by all sides of being ‘obsessed’ with the rise of trans. And it's true that for the past few years I’ve not been commissioned to write on much besides. Consequently, I’m now one of a handful of journalists to become expert in the issue. 1/3

Don’t dole it out if you can’t take it
@billybragg
That’s my article Billy. You know the word ‘fascist’ doesn’t simply mean ‘uppity women I don’t like’? You and your lying, vicious band of bloodthirsty brothers nearly had women killed because of the testeria you whipped up. Perhaps stay out of issues you don’t understand.

Humans come in two sexes- female & male. Gender refers to sex stereotypes.
Trans activists want to break sexed bodies to match gender
Sane people recognise we should break gender stereotypes, not sexed bodies.
There’s less money in teaching ppl to accept themselves.
I find it fascinating that as a rule ‘non binary’ for men involves wearing makeup & heels (ie adorning the body to become a sex object) whereas for women it means the binding or removal of flesh (ie trying not to be a sex object). It’s suspiciously binary…

Just spoke on a US radio station about the cat killing murderer & why the BBC pandered to his preferred pronouns. Across the world transgenderism is starting to unravel as the public wake up & media start to pay attention.
This global assault is not just on our bodies, on even on democracy, but on reality itself. That demands expert coverage. And unlike many of those who cover this from the same POV as lobby groups, I am aware of my own beliefs & can argue for them. I am proud of my job. 3/3

Hijab-wearing women often face discrimination and heightened Islamophobia for their visible Muslim identity.

8 years ago a (male) ex called me 'cruel' for stating that gender was social straight-jacket; suddenly I felt too ashamed to question. I didn't want to be nasty & forgot what I had known. Then in 2015 the reality of so-called 'gender identity' began to dawn.

One of my nieces just messaged me - she saw the footage of the protest in New Zealand and is bloody furious about the fact the police threw KJK to the mob. People are finally seeing through the rainbow wash.

But rather than dismissing me as single-issue perhaps consider the fact that there are so many stories to cover – I am never short of work. Each day across the world dangerous laws are being passed to centre identities- new threats to women & children continuously emerge. 2/3
I've had a surge in followers over the past few days, which I presume is due to my criticism of transgenderism rather than appreciation of my DIY projects and cats. Are people finally realising that trans demands put the human rights of every other group at risk?

I explained my main topic of the past 6 years has been the assault on women’s & LGB rights by trans activists.
He immediately understood, because unlike most of those in universities & Parliament he’s neither an idiot nor coward.
Much is made of a generational divide re: the clash between sex and gender identity. The subtext is always that younger people are more enlightened & liberal. But to my mind, it's because life experience makes you realise that your sex really matters.
@nym_bug
Oh mate... That's they point- those men did so happily without claiming to have a bullshit gender identity. Your movement is so regressive and sexist- I'm embarrassed for you. Maybe try finding out what our opinions are before building your straw-enby argument. 🤣
Lots of friends cut me off when in 2015 I first dared to point out that you can't change sex, & that kids were being medicalised to fit sexist stereotypes. I was called paranoid, twisted & fascist. I sometimes wonder if any have reconsidered since & whether I'll get an apology.

I don't think smearing feminists standing-up for the rights of women & children is a good look for Oxfam. Have you sorted out the problem with your staff sexually exploiting desperate women in Haiti and DCR yet? I'd have thought that'd be a priority.
Every time I think I'm the first person to realise something, I dig and discover a second waver said it 40 years ago. I wonder how much time is lost re-inventing the feminist wheel, in part cos' the insights of older women are sneered at & dismissed.
Lawyer asks why LGB Alliance board is only comprised of gender critical ppl. Bev responds by pointing out that the same is true of Mermaids et al, and that having charities with opposing beliefs is a part of living in a liberal democracy.

I'm writing a book on pornography. That involves researching graphic and unpleasant acts. I often read about them on the train. This latest slur against one of the UK's most effective campaigners is desperate, and ironic given it emanates from a community founded on porn.
On Sunday a piece I wrote about
@stonewalluk

Part of my job as a journalist is to help hold orgs to account. In response Stonewall blocked me.

When those bastards are prosecuted for what they've done to a generation of confused kids I want to be in that courtroom. I want to watch their faces as they're confronted with the horror of what they've done. For the first time I think it might happen.
I've heard that tomorrow over 100 self-indulgent whingers will be racing in the "non-binary" marathon category. I wonder how many of the winners will be women?
We need a campaign urging the police to take action against the extremists who harass and threaten gender critical people. Why aren't the police standing-up for our right to express our opinions without fear?
Can’t believe the professionally offended trans activists are marching again today. They’ve already stolen women’s rights, children’s rights LGB rights. What more is there for these parasitical whiners to demand?

Would I have the right to refuse to be searched by Skye? Do you uphold my right to see Skye as a man, or just Skye’s to identify as a woman? You need to address this, there will be lawsuits.
So the reason the case was brought, the reason Mermaids claimed to have ‘standing’ is that they are worried there could be a drop in donations from the public & grant making bodies

I don’t need your ‘allyship’. No one needs your allyship. We need you to do your job without fear or favour. As a gender critical woman messages like this reduce my confidence in the police.
