Another woman bypassed for a man identifying as a women.
Not inclusive, not diverse, just the same old patriarchy wearing a dress.
The opportunities for females once again overridden by opportunistic men.
Stop gaslighting females.
@amayadeakins
@jk_rowling
Our natal sex, in pretty much all instances, is obvious.
To deny reality, and pretend we haven't known for millennia the difference between male and female is grasping at straws.
@amayadeakins
@jk_rowling
This is the "Dr" who believes none of us can know our sex unless we are kareotyped.
How we survived for millenia knowing our sex, without a test, is beyond me.
@arlenephillips
I think her gracious apology, and honest misunderstanding of how disruptive it became, should be received in the same manner. The issue has now been highlighted, a good thing, so let's not make
@AlisonHammond
a scapegoat.
@wesstreeting
@UKLabour
It was never a culture war.
It was a focused, deliberate and long standing plan to erase all that it means to be a boy or girl and replace it with a fabricated belief about gendered identities.
It was necessary to capture the children when they were young enough to be moulded.
@CaringADignity
We had male nurses throughout my 39 year career
Everyone of them would self excuse from intimate care, because they fully understood the reasons ( other than emergency situations)
It wasn't personal, or being exclusive, it was decency and empathy for the patient
What has changed?
@Sal_Robins
I had a miscarriage one night, while working as a Marie Curie nurse, at someone's home.
I didn't say a word.
Stayed until the end of my shift.
Men have no idea.
@crushtheracists
Hi, I am 69, also live alone. I think sometimes as we age life can be lonely, however, how nice you are a grandpa, do any live nearby? I have the companionship of 2 cats and a dog. Photos attached. From London. I hope you get lots of replies.
@legaltweetz
As adults your bodies are your own.
It is not possible to change sex therefore sex based rights should not be appropriated.
How you model your presentation isn't the problem, it is the assumption you are entitled to my rights, based on sex that is the problem.
@CherylE59628
@anna_lippman
Hello Cheryl ,
First off, I am not a Jew. โค๏ธ
You are amazing, your words are both fire and ice.
I wish, with all my heart, that Jews could feels safe and loved in the world.
@Bronwen85
They are if they do not obtain informed consent to intimate care.
Same sex care is based on biology not identity.
Your feelings are not more important than the patient.
@DreyfusJames
I wonder if she had a childhood nanny, because all her tweets have the same tone.
That of chiding a child then putting them to bed.
I am always surprised by her assumed superiority, I guess it comes from never having struggled, she doesn't recognise her own privileged upbringing.
@jk_rowling
๐ ๐ dear lady, thank you for staying sane, speaking out and caring. I have no idea how you have managed to write these last few months. ๐
@WildfireWhisper
In the UK marital rape did not become illegal until 1992, I was 39.
Those under 40 seem oblivious to their own history.
The idea that men presenting as women mitigates male violence is irrational.
@AdultHumanFem18
Thank you, we all need to be reminded that pretty much all HCPs respect and care for their patient's needs.
It is crazy to legislate otherwise.
@BuckAngel
Fair enough Buck, but you want others to use your pronouns.
The only difference is the degree of body modification.
You are honest about biology, but you would still prefer others to refer to you as he.
I think that is double standards.
No one changes sex, language is important.
@Finn_Mackay
Nope.
They are reclaiming the rights stolen by false pretence.
All human rights are untouched.
Unfettered access to female SS spaces by TIMs is not a right, it is appropriation.
Removing safeguarding from children is not a right.
Demanding others bend to your will is not a right.
@iaindwelch
Good evening Iain, this is my 'squinty eyes' begging face, works every time ๐. Now I'm having a snoozle. Today was my 5th gotcha day, I will be 6 on the 1st Dec. Woofs and licks Henry x
@sisterrosetta57
Because he had enormous fondness for the women in his life, never pretended he was a women, loved animals, kindest heart, enormously witty and a decent human being.
@KirstieMAllsopp
That's right Kirstie, let's drive all single sex clubs, gatherings and organisations underground as the only way to exclude men.
Then let's terrorise any women who dare to exclude trans identifying men.
But yes, let's be kind and inclusive of our sex based rights being eroded.
@mcashmanCBE
I worked as a nurse through the crisis.
This is not the same.
We were making progress in this country until Gender identity ideology started socially engineering kids via the Internet.
GI is homophobic.
@CarilynJohnson
Women in their 30's were discouraged from tubal ligation when they knew they didn't want children.
Now we can sterilise a child before they have even experienced their sexuality, let alone know if they want to have children.
They have that choice removed.
@oolon
There is no such thing as a "trans kid", they didn't exist before SM.
PBs are not safe.
No child has the wrong body.
Any person, who pushes for automatic medicalisation of a child, is a huge safeguarding risk.
Let our children flourish, not wither on the alter of gender ideology.
@frontrowshoes
@GlamourMagUK
It is not an either/or situation.
Why do you find it so hard to accept that females deserve dignity when vulnerable.
Men presenting as women are male.
Religion, disability and privacy should not be ignored to satisfy a belief.
No one can change sex.
@TransKidsRule
And?
I am sure they will be accommodated with respect, just not on a female ward.
It is a shame you have zero consideration for natal females.
@MKMartinWriter
@garylfrancione
You have just confirmed that you think speech, even in your absence, should be compelled.
No.
I don't believe in gender identity ideology and will not be forced by an authoritarian cult of narcissism to comply.
@lucy_thevegan
@StormCloudGloom
I have come to the conclusion that "trans" is a created victimology, that gives its supporters an avenue to vocalise their misogyny.
@KingBobIIV
I was always left of centre.
Born in the 50's, the holocaust, in all its atrocities, was something of which I became very aware.
I cannot believe, within my lifetime, there are calls for Jews to be gassed.
I am truly ashamed.
Left wing ideology is morally bankrupt.
@MForstater
Before the Internet spread this ideology, there were no hoards of 'transkids' grappling with identity.
No threats of suicide.
We had progressed through abortion rights, equal pay (debatable), sex discrimination, gay rights. Legal recognition of transsexuals.
Men will never stop.
@SamBarber1910
Well at least she leaves us in no doubt.
C & C are grifters for the "transgender" industry.
It's all about the money and 'status'.
I, for one, am glad to know.
I am beginning to understand their cause doesn't include women's rights.
@Pafar

@ThePosieParker
What an utterly strange comment.
Why would we shun a Christian woman defending reality and humanity.
You have very odd values.
@Belstaffie
I am a het woman, rtrd nurse.
Something I only came to realise recently is how hidden lesbians were.
Male nurses, if they were gay, seemed more able to be open if they chose to be.
I knew maybe 2-3 open lesbians, I realise now how different the climate was for them.

@Rylan
I am not sure how long your mum's staples have been in but they should be ok for 10 days.
Problems can sometimes occur if left in too long but I am sure you won't be left in that position.
It is crazy how complicated healthcare has become.
Try not to worry too much ๐
@Theleftorwright
@SVPhillimore
And your denial of my sexed reality is sexphobic and in direct contravention of my human rights.
You do not dictate my reality, that is not your domain.
If I find your belief discriminatory and in conflict with my rights I will say so.
Now what are you going to do?
@mimmymum
@carolinenokes
@KateOsborneMP
The clue is in the title.
Until men stop appropriating women's rights in the name of "trans" then it is going to seem like that.
Equality is not removing women's rights to pacify men.
@hogotheforsaken
@theproblembeing
I feel I am witness to the collapse of Western values.
I never thought I would be grateful to be older, but the future feels dystopian compared to my past.
It is incomprehensible how a terror attack of such a barbaric nature, has ignited a hatred of Jews.
I feel shame.
@JamesChiavarini
I would like to nominate
@SarahSurviving
, she has been fighting for single sex rape crisis services in Brighton, following her own experience of being denied that right because of "inclusivity".
@CherylHoleQueen
Nope.
Drag is no longer an art form.
There is no humour, no kindness, no empathy.
Just ugly, misogynistic caricatures debasing women.
There was a time men in drag respected women, they mocked us with warmth, Lily Savage never made me feel the way you do.
@jk_rowling
Never in 39 years, retired 10 yrs ago, did I witness a person's request for same sex intimate care denied.
I feel ashamed.
Male nurses understood the need for consent.
It wasn't an issue.
It is not bigotry.
It is respect for bodily autonomy.
@thisisUgwu
How is explaining menstruation redefining periods.
There is not one man, identifying as a woman, capable of menstruation.
Denying biology and the female reproductive mechanism, to falsely validate the feelings of men identifying as women, is totally regressive.
@aquariancity
Not once have I, a woman, been given the opportunity to vote on whether I agree to my sex class being erased.
And don't pretend it isn't.
Terminology being altered, biology being denied, the word woman being substituted, SS services compromised.
This is a gross injustice.
@bindelj
@Dawson40M
And quoting the use of PBs, in precocious puberty, as evidence for use in "transkids" is utterly irresponsible and a false equivalent.
@Jebadoo2
Wow.
@KemiBadenoch
is always so clear, articulate and well prepared.
It is so important to get the attention focused on the children.
They are the gateway, without which the adult gender industry couldn't have gained so much power.
@KirstieMAllsopp
Paul O'Grady had the utmost respect for women and children. He understood vulnerability. He never, ever thought he was a woman. He understood his audience, had a biting wit and social conscience.
There is absolutely no comparison.
If you are going to debate, dig deeper.

This is the 2nd time I have seen you responding with kindness on twitter, I feel life has humbled you, as it should us all, it's nice to see in an ever more divisive world.
@ThomasWillett9
It is totally misogynistic to tell women they are no longer entitled to their rights, their language and their sex class, because of men identifying as women.
@Theholisticpsyc
Reading this is strange, I realise as an advocate(I was a nurse for 39yrs) I grew and learnt to be those things, however, on a personal level found it too hard to trust another to be that for me.
@0Calamity
As a 70 year old woman I really think you should know better.
You are old enough to know this didn't exist.
There were no "trans kids", no "gender identities", no "born in the wrong body".
No one can change sex.
No man, however they identify, should be claiming women's rights.
@amayadeakins
@jk_rowling
Completely irrelevant.
Kareotyping for chromosomal abnormalities does not alter the fact that people are either male or female and perfectly observable in majority of births.
@ThomasWillett9
All men are excluded from sex based sports, services and facilities.
Not all men are predators, but they are still excluded for reasons of dignity, privacy and fairness.
Men identifying as women remain men, their sex does not change.
They present the same risk.
@varindeus
Girls should not be taught to pander to fragile egos. Life is full of rejections. The fact the boy is autistic does not mean the same rights don't apply. It feels manipulative on the part of the mother. She should have talked to her son beforehand regarding potential outcomes.

You are just another wing for the "trans" lobby now
Genuinely disappointed, you betrayed us.
@NoCisgender
I was 20 in the 70's, able to choose my own path.
Part of the generation pushing forward on Women's rights. Supporting gay rights and S/S marriage.
Now I am 70 in the 20's, and feel all the progress, understanding and acceptance, has been taken and perverted by "trans" ideology
@UglaStefania
Of course it doesn't, you are male.
Nurtured from birth by a female.
Men have a different reaction to nurses, we are often an extension of the personal care they received as children.
@Neuro_Matt
Trans people create their own difficulties as you have zero desire for any workable solution.
Take responsibility for yourself.
I suspect if you are trans you know whether or not you have a cervix.
Stop catastrophizing words. It is perfectly OK to say women.
@maemuller_
Oh I'd forgotten all about you.
Weren't you last in Eurovision or something?
You know full well it was a man.
Are you trying to get noticed, have you something to sell?
@antoniabance
Good for you, this is about an ideology, misogyny, homophobia, the erasure of terminology that refers to women as a class, the blending of men into the female class, the indoctrination of children, so no I don't feel quite so benevolent towards men who call themselves mum.
@lkszmn
@RichardDawkins
Nope, feelings are not biological reality.
Males cannot be females.
The word woman is taken.
Trans identifying males are a subset of men.
@EmergMedDr
What a truly disgusting comment. You show total lack of empathy for the dehumanising of women. I feel ashamed to know a doctor would publicly speak, in such a derogatory way, about a proven athlete caring for the women in sport.

"Non trans women".
Your hatred of women and your own femaleness is so evident.
We are women, your pathetic attempt to categorise and other us is pure vindictiveness.
@Jebadoo2
What we are witnessing now is miles away from be kind, be inclusive to a marginalise group of gender dysphoric individuals. Manipulation of our youth by social media is endemic. It seems to bring out the very worst of behaviour. Why? Who is benefitting? Men, money and sex.

@UKHouseofLords
Many months ago, he responded to a comment of mine.
I said I had cared for people with aids during the early 90's.
He called me a liar, said oncology nurses didn't care for PWAs.
I informed him my skills were transferable, and explained the role I played.
He didn't respond!
