This TERF page run by Janice Williams- one of the TERFs who sabotaged
London Pride this year- is now promoting fascist antisemitic conspiracy
theories.TERFs really are openly showing their true colours now as they go all out in stoking up anti-trans prejudice ahead of the government consultation closing.
I see they got a cartoon by an artist trained at the Watto from SW School of Antisemitic Caricatures
A full page transphobic advert in a national newspaper?
That’s fun.
That’s REALLY fun.
Britain, you transphobic bastard, you’ve outdone yourself.
Oh, and if you were wondering, the people behind this advert (which cost over £40,000) are meeting mps at the Houses of Parliament this month, to discuss how much trans people shouldn’t have rights.
If you want to complain about the transphobia, and misrepresentation of protections already afforded to trans people under the Equality Act as things that are up for debate under the GRA consultation, you can make a complaint to the Advertising Standards Agency HERE – the advert was in today’s Metro (10/10/18)
If an ~anti kidnapping PSA~ is based on the idea that sex traffickers all want to go snatching up random middle class women, it’s almost guaranteed to be bullshit clickbait
Traffickers (and also serial killers) almost never go snatching Suzy Q. Whitegirl, suburban wife and mother of two, from the whole foods parking lot, because Suzy is guaranteed to have family and friends who would very notice something was wrong, and report her as missing. Additionally, and most importantly, Suzy is going to be seen as a sympathetic victim by police and the wider community, so grabbing her is going to get the entire damn police department, local news, and possibly national news hot on your ass. Kidnappings like this are incredibly rare for this reason, but they’re the ones you hear about because they’re the once where we’ve collectively agreed the victims are actually worth giving a fuck about.
Traffickers know this, so they prey on women who are already isolated, and won’t be seen as important and sympathetic victims even if someone does notice their absence–and playing on social prejudices is how this is usually done. Snatching Suzy Q. Whitegirl means you’ll get all kinds of hell and investigation, but manipulating and then kidnapping someone like an undocumented woman who’s afraid that trying to get help will get her deported, or a Black trans teenager who got kicked out by her parents, or a homeless indigenous woman struggling with diagnosed but untreated bipolar disorder + a criminal record related to sex work and self-medication with drugs/alcohol; that gets maybe a few fading “missing person” signs hung around the rough part of town, and cops making “lol dead hooker” jokes down at the station.
I’m not trying to guilt or yell at people who share those posts, but supposed “advice” that ignores one of the main ways predators operate and pick their victims isn’t actually advice, it’s just clickbait advertising that preys on women’s fears, while continuing to ignore the women who are most at risk.
Holy fuck. Holy FUCKING SHIT.
This study recruited directly from 4th/wave/now.
ie, the Fake Goth’s latest fucking transphobic attack platform, designed to convince the world that those eeeeevil trannies and Big Pharma are just tricking poor autistic lesbians into thinking they’re boys.
This is literal TERF propaganda.
And of course transmeds trot it out as “proof” that we need more gatekeeping.
The study only used second-hand accounts of the children’s experiences. They gave parents a survey about the relationship and perceptions they had with/of their child.
The study is full of leading questions, assumptions and errors even with what was collected. It was supposed to be about trans youth and one of the premises of the whole thing was that kids were getting their ideas of being transgender from online sources. But again, the study ONLY asked questions of the parents so what you have is best guesses from the parents. Which… isn’t really relevant if you are studying the experiences of trans youth.
The study never collects data from the youth themselves. “Youth” in this case being folks ranging from 11-27, so many of them are young adults who could have been asked directly. But the subjects of the study, that is trans youth, are treated as though they have no autonomy and as unreliable sources of information themselves.
It’s a bad study being rejected for bad practices. While the topic itself is one of those hot button issues, it’s not being rejected because it is a taboo or “not politically correct” topic it is being rejected because it is bad science.
Like freshman failing first year statistics bad science.
maybe they should try gatekeeping the fucking SCIENTIFIC METHOD for a while
As the legislative session winds to a close for the year, Assembly Bill 2943 was removed from consideration on the final day of debate. Although California passed the nation’s first-ever bill outlawing conversion therapy in 2012, AB 2943 would have built on the previous legislation by expanding its scope.
In addition to preventing the harmful, discredited practice from being performed on individuals over the age of 18, it defined any attempt to “cure” the sexual orientation or gender identity of an LGBTQ person as “fraud.”
AB 2943 passed both the California Assembly and the Senate with wide majorities early in the year and was set to head to Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk following one final vote in the lower house of the legislature. Brown, a Democrat who has signed many pro-LGBTQ bills during his time in the governor’s mansion, was widely expected to approve it.
