Vuokkoset, a Finnish company released the controversial new sanitary product earlier this month to coincide with Transgender Awareness week and International Men’s day. The product comes in a dark blue box which bears the words “For Men” on one side, but then extends this phrase around the packaging so it eventually reads “For Menstruation”. On another side of the packet it is stated that “periods are not a gender issue”.
Vuokkoset has said in a statement online that it launched the period product to “raise the issue of genderness of hygiene products and the anxiety related to menstruation in trans men”.
Yeah the “genderness” of products designed to absorb menstrual blood – why would such … Read the rest
Originally a comment by Arcadia on I wanted them to be super fit.
If I may, “just deliver an egg” is quite minimising language about what actually happens. Egg donors aren’t like sperm donors, it’s not a pleasant process where she can just have a wank and catch millions of eggs in a sterile container.
Egg donation requires extensive hormonal medication to induce her to overproduce eggs, trigger shots to release them, lots of vaginal ultrasounds to determine the progress of the eggs, and the eggs are retrieved with a huge needle. None of it is fun, and risks are attached for her at every stage. Many women note how awful IVF is to undergo; egg donation is that … Read the rest
Police have wrongly labelled hundreds of suspected rapists as women, The Telegraph can reveal – despite the Home Secretary saying they should not do so. Over the past four years, police forces have referred 260 “females” to the … (CPS) … to consider a charge of rape. A further 209 suspects have been recorded with an “unknown” sex, which is understood to include those who identify as non-binary. By law, rape can only be committed by a biological male.
So the police have ruled more than 400 men not guilty of rape, by the police’s own fiat. The police have ruled that more than 400 men are not men, which renders them not capable of and … Read the rest
A former soldier turned keyboard warrior has been hit with a restraining order after a terrifying hate campaign directed at a number of successful women including a leading barrister.
David Mottershead, 42, who claimed to be standing up for ‘men’s rights’ sent death threats to various successful women including Dr Charlotte Proudman, leaving her fearing for her life.
The ex-soldier posted a chilling picture of himself holding a gun, with his face smeared in camouflage paint and his finger on the trigger aiming at Dr Proudman, telling her: ‘You’ll panic as I inhale your last breath’ in a tweet addressed to her.
Free speech innit.

Reem Alsalem is quoted as saying things about the violence against women on November 20. The format is rather odd, though I guess it’s normal for press releases from orgs – it’s a long string of “she said” without saying where when how she said. It’s a press release awkwardly put into the third person. What for? Why not just put her name on it as author?
Anyway, for the record, she does mention Israeli women.
Once.

“Damning” may be an understatement, in fact. The 56-page report detailed “substantial evidence” of corruption, fraud and misuse of campaign funds that included personal expenditures on clothing, Botox treatments and OnlyFans, a platform where users pay for content, including pornography.

… Read the rest… there’s an exercise at the end. It’s a Gender Comparison Activity. Children are asked to write down things which make them feel like the gender they are – like the way they dress, their favourite colours, the way they act, the games and toys they like to play with. Then they’re asked to make a separate list of things which are associated with the opposite gender – like if they are a boy but they like to play with dolls (that is the actual example given).
Then the children are asked to think whether those lists make them feel any differently about their gender.

And I’m pretty sure no GC feminist has told anyone who is trans (or an ‘ally’) to die in a grease fire. I am willing to be corrected on that if anyone has evidence otherwise.
If transactivists had evidence for any of the horrible things that feminists have been accused of doing, they’d be broadcasting it 24/7. They would only need one example, and they’d be repeating it over and over. Forever. But they don’t. They can’t even honestly report the actual words of JKR, because they’re completely innocuous.
