- In the run up to the General Election, WRN members took to the streets to find out what the public think of women's and girls' rights to single-sex spaces and sports. The results showed they are overwhelmingly in favour.
Bloody brilliant !
Brilliant! Well done all those women 👏👏👏👏
Great idea!!
powerful statement !
Great and excellent work.
Great video, great street stalls. Simple questions either yes no answers are really important.
It's so obvious when we use truthful language.
Fabulous women!
Awesome!! ❤️
Maybe the biggest challenge, though, lies in getting certain women to understand that "trans women" are indeed men? Because I think the problem is, TRAs don't fully see them as such! The most hardcore TRAs..? See them as anything ranging from "a type of woman", (what I used to believe, when I was at my most TRA), to in most respects indistinguishable from what they call "cis women", (a perspective I never held, as I could never FULLY rid myself of my understanding of human biology, including the reality of sex. I just told myself it was irrelevant). While people that are slightly / marginally TRA..? See them as sort of a third category. As not quite women, but not quite men, either. Thinking "trans women" is its own thing. (I went through that stage, too, during SOME part of my years-long peaking journey.)
Anyway, I think key, here..? Is refusing to ever refer to them as "trans women"! (Unless you do it in QUOTES, either to refer to what other people think, or sarcastically / mockingly, like I do on occasion. But to never ever validate them as such, anyway!) Because using that kind of language makes people think of them as a subcategory of women. I love how you just simply call them MEN! Thank you! And if their "trans" identity / belief is in some contexts relevant..? Then "trans identifying men", or "men pr3t3nding to be women", work just fine! 👍
I actually had a really interesting conversation about this, with someone that I care about, who never fully bought into gender ideology, but did have SOME trutrans sympathies. Who is now much closer to terfdom, but is still not COMPLETELY there, and still has at least SOME remaining trutrans sympathies. (That I keep trying to destroy. 😛) As opposed to yours truly, who's run the entire FULL TRA ---> FULL TERF gamut. Who now refuses to ever unironically use words like "trans woman", because ceasing to use TRA language has been so absolutely ESSENTIAL to getting this awful, mind warping crap out of my head! And as I told my loved one..? Calling these men "trans women" actively made me see them differently, and as not quite men!! While my loved one told me that to her, "trans woman" always made her think basically "not a REAL woman! But a PRETEND woman!" Interesting conversation. And your mileage may vary. But I think it's so important for people like her to still NOT use the mind warping language, anyway! Because it will absolutely screw over the minds of people like my former self, actively gaslight them, and unhook them from reality! Which we can't afford to do, for the sake of women, children, and overall society, plus it is also cruel to knowingly contribute to someone's further cult hijacking.
Just my rambly thoughts on it. 😛

Hahaha, My Mom who was born in 1932 in Suriname was a bit surprised but whe never tought much of it when she was put on a ward with a man somewhere in the 1990ths. Her Health had our attention, not her roommate.
Congratulations on all those street stalls. I just wish WRN via their Twatter/X account, had once, just once, re-tweeted any of our Party of Women candidates. Or just mentioned them, even once, in their member's newsletter. But thanks for carefully avoiding the 16 constituencies the candidates are standing in, because it might have scuppered their campaigns, especially if you were also giving out your leaflets. So thanks for that anyway.
This is unfair. Lots of POW members are in WRN. KJK has been very critical of WRN this year so it’s difficult to know what would be the right approach! I think WRN has behaved really well about this.
