“We’re very clear on this issue”
Women must not have any private space away from men, says top man.
Trans women should be allowed to enter all public places, the Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey says, as he accuses Boris Johnson of stirring up “a culture war” on the issue.
Never mind Boris Johnson, never mind men fighting over who gets to boss everyone, what about women?
Nothing. Nothing about women. Ed Davey doesn’t give a flying fuck about women. He may not even realize we exist.
There’s a transcript.
“So there should not be spaces where biological males cannot go?”
“No. No, no, precisely.”
Well, that’s clear.
“We need a mature, open debate”
Trans person: “You’re hurting my feelings. You’re not validating me. I’m going to commit suicide if you don’t agree with me. Shut up and fuck off, Karen TERF.”
So mature. So open.
Well, obviously, having an open, mature debate about it means leaving cis women out of the discussion. What do they know? This is about transwomen’s lived experiences and safety. From, well, from men who don’t understand or respect boundaries for sex. Women need to be lectured about transphobia, and a man can’t lecture a woman who won’t wheesht.
He doesn’t want to exclude women. He wants to exclude the immature, closed-minded, intolerant group that doesn’t believe TWAW. Eliminate the gender critical position — and THEN there can be a REAL debate.
The debate will have two sides: those who want to eliminate so called “sex-based rights” immediately— and those who think it should be done gradually, in stages, giving people a chance to be Educated first.
And the majority in the first category.
He doesn’t want to exclude women, only Karen.
As he’s the one who brought up “trans” in response to a question about “biological males”, Davey, through his “answer,” has made it clear that he really believes “trans woman” = male.
