Being "dismayed at the persecution of trans people" and believing that only women have a cervix are mutually exclusive, @suzanne_moore.

I have a cervix. I am a man. My persecution may include being refused primary care because my "meat suit" confuses or disgusts doctors.

We are all "more than collections of body parts". We all deserve competent medical care and equality. It's not about fucking pronouns.

At least be intellectually honest. We don't want empty platitudes, on top of having to suffer whatever twaddle of yours The Guardian puts out.

ps Andrea Dworkin was an actual trans ally. She wasn't worried or particularly interested in definitions of 'woman' or 'man'...

"We are clearly a multisexed species which has its sexuality spread along a vast continuum where the elements called male and female are not discrete."

Allow me to speak momentarily for the gays, the trans and our allies everywhere, with sincere yet rapidly fraying good will: either join the struggle for our equality as human beings or leave us alone.

It may surprise you to hear but, for the love of god, this is not about you.
