Doesn't matter how you mean it. Point out the error in calling it circular logic:
No, of course not. You are right. More accurately: The recent clearout of consultants MAY have meant that he was available for work. His advocacy and consultancy work, MAY have meant - like others in the same situation - that he reached out to his existing...
The Labour Government had already employed him during the last six years as an advisor to the Ministry of Education. I'm assuming the current cropping of government employers may have ended that contract, making his employment with Labour a shift rather ...
You probably would remain red in the face if you knew the search terms. On that topic - you've had a year- have you got a definition yet for woman that doesn't involve "young girls" and "menarche", or their "status"?
I support your suggestion. Iatrogenic harm is best avoided if possible. A recent documentary that gives space to young men to share their experiences is here: https://youtu.be/AaiicS2HXW4?si=7V-VyXDJaK5Iz4UW
Yeah, for you it does.

"Fair slips off the tongue, doesn't it! Every politician should memorise that pithy one-liner; the ol' "Mullerian pathway" will have the audience mesmerised." Damn, in my reminiscing of previous conversations I recalled this TS conversation from last year ...
You'd know "condescending" Robert. So I'll defer that judgement to you.
Hi Robert - I just knew I'd find you here.... Now, it's not because I "hate" you, but only because I don't rate you, that I will not often be responding directly to your replies to me. I've come to this decision due to a vast amount of previous experience,...
Thanks, Psycho Milt. I only occasionally return to TS these days, and felt that Kay's comment deserved the discussion she was seeking, but realise it was belated and may have missed the open discussion boat. Yours was much briefer and to the point.
"I have tried very hard to understand where certain commentators here have been coming from with their trans comments. I've read them, followed some links to see where it stems from." Try harder, Kay - because from this introduction to your comment, I ...
That's why any such policy should not include a contestable proviso such as: "environmentally damaging". As Belladonna points out above, that standard should be consistently applied.
"If a bloke said to a lesbian, you’re not really a lesbian, you just need a good shag, would you consider that to be homophobia?" I'd consider it all too commonplace and idiotic, whether it was said by a bloke or a woman. Homophobic possibly, if it is ...
@weka So. all good I guess... I don't have to rewrite and you have access to my already supplied response.
"Trans people don't exist" is a strange conclusion to make when someone does not accept an individual's self declaration. A person being told they are not an airline pilot - when they are not, or even when they are - does not negate their existence. It ...
I thought I had. Is the comment in moderation?
I wasn't taking your words to support my argument, I have enough of my own, but I may have misunderstood yours. "That means, don't run round on twitter in a frenzy yelling trans people don't exist in a situation where the GC movement is increasingly ...
No. I don't have a clear definition of transphobia, because I haven't yet heard or come across one, despite the common use of the term. I connect the use of "phobia" to be an irrational fear of something. As transgender as a concept is (to my mind) ill ...
"But there are people who think misgendering or saying TW are male is literal violence and I guess they feel entitled to punch back." That's not a result of KJK though. It is a failing on the part of those committing violence. "What does "women who don't ...
"Another example of transphobia is people saying trans people don't exist." The only reference to this is a claim given by some that saying people don't change sex equates to saying "trans people don't exist". It's not an example of transphobia - still not...
Here's another definition, to help understand the problem: https://x.com/libsoftiktok/status/1765818289479954838?s=20 with a link to the bill he is submitting on: https://documents.house.mo.gov/billtracking/bills241/hlrbillspdf/3148H.01I.pdf
Coincidentally, JK Rowling just posted a definition on her X account: https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1765822003246768198?s=20 "The word ‘transphobic’, as used here, does not mean an irrational fear or dislike of trans people. It means refusing to use ...
"Afaik she is referring to the idea that because of how KJK does her work, violence by others is a natural consequence." How does KJK do her work that results in violence being a natural consequence? Also, I'd like to hear Darien respond in her own words ...
@SPC "“You’re a lying little b******,” she said to him" Such unprovoked violence. Where are the police and courts when you need them? He must have been traumatised. Poor wee manlet.
Point of relevance is free speech.
SPC, there has been numerous indications that gay children looking for support or information about their realisation of their homosexuality, are not receiving such support. They are introduced to the concept that an unidentifiable "gender identity" takes ...
Appropriating a public platform, or using an organisation's reach to express a personally held opinion, is not a requirement of free speech. It is an interesting phenomenon to witness those who champion this poorly thought out act utilising an ...
I am sorry to hear of your experience, David. It is a poor judicial outcome for you, and I hope you have been able to overcome that aspect in your recovery.
@Cricklewood The focus on the individual is notable, and also notable for not having a requirement to be measured, assessed and determined if the outcome is as expected. However, there is a wider societal impact of each individual court cases and ...
"I hate being right." If that was the only concern, this this medical disaster could have been stopped in its tracks, by looking for and demanding high quality clinical evidence for such significant psychological, medial and surgical interventions. The ...
