So, I think for the good of not banging my head repeatedly against the wall, I'm going to block Katy M. Before I do tho, I just want to look at this, because in some sense it is the core of the denial we are dealing with.

Or maybe, we should call it, 'the denial of the denial.'

Katy's claim is the GC feminism is integrally or necessarily racist, homophobic etc, because 'you all big bigotty bigotty bigot brains.' That is, that we are trafficking in irrational prejudice against vulnerable people for no reason whatsoever other than us being hateful bitches

My claim was that we are opposing the erasure of sex in law by the trans rights movement, and that we are doing so because sex is women's protected characteristic, and we have legitimate political interests in being recognised as a sex class in law, and in not being redefined on

the basis of a gender category which is, to be blunt, fucking sexist bullshit.

What is notable, is that Katy point black refuses to accept that there is any legal or political sex erasure happening, and that that has implications for women.

Yesterday we got this, the claim that its not a mainstream trans rights position to try and undermine women's sex based spaces. Stephen Whittle has also made a similar claim. Despite the fact that, as we know, large trans rights orgs petitioned the > https://twitter.com/janeclarejones/status/1300844957742366721?s=20

government to remove the exemptions from the Equality Act, and did so in the context of of the Trans Inquiry, from which women were completely excluded.

Yesterday I repeatedly asked Katy to explain why being opposed to the erasure of sex in law was necessarily bigoted, and no

answer was forthcoming which didn't immediately translate back into the language of being anti-trans, or opposing trans rights, or being prejudiced against trans people.

Which led to this exchange.

Katy response to this this morning was this.

So let's have a look.

- 'You can call every concept we are discussing something that it is not.' Um, the concept we are discussing is 'erasing sex in law.' It is you who is refusing to accept that that is genuinely what we are >

concerned about, and who repeatedly translate that as 'opposing trans rights.'

As we point out, that suggests that trans rights depends on erasing sex in law, which, would be exactly our claim about the problem with current trans activism.

Of course, that won't be conceded, because really, trying to erase the protected characteristic of women in law would be kind of fucking outrageous, especially if you had done so by stealth, by excluding women from the process, and when they noticed, you then tried to repeatedly

threaten, intimidate and demonise them as nasty hateful bitches to get the to STFU.

So that can't be what is happening.

Except that is exactly what is happening.

Yesterday I spoke to Katy about what happened/is happening with the census. Our census authorities have changed the definition of sex on the census to 'self-identified sex,' i.e. to gender identity, and they did so only in consultation with trans activist organisations.

Alice Sullivan discusses this here. Notably, Sally Hines wrote a response in which she entirely mischaracterised Alice's argument as being in opposition to a trans identity question.

No, 'we're objecting to the erasure of biological https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13645579.2020.1768346

sex' we repeat, for the millionth time...

Then Sally accused Alice of being paranoid... so true to form there then... and yes, it does all sound like a mad conspiracy theory from bonkers Orwell nightmare-land.

But it is happening.

In order to defend what the census authorities had done, there were submissions to the Scottish committee dealing with the census, where there was a proposal to turn the sex question into a non-binary question, which um, is a gender identity question.

In these submission it was explicitly argued that the definition of sex in law is not biological, because it was changed by the GRA, and indeed, Sharon Cowan, Professor of Queer Legal flibbitygibbet, explicitly argued that the Scottish government was free to interpret sex

as, and I quote, 'whatever the fuck you like.'

As we also know, there is a big-ass funded project at King's London, which is also spending a ton of our money to investigate 'The Future of Legal Gender' aka, 'no we're not considering erasing sex in law

https://www.parliament.scot/S5_European/General%20Documents/CTEEA_CensusBill_CowanProfSharon_CTEEA_S5_18_CB_31.pdf

you bunch of paranoid old hags.' Davina Cooper, the women who runs the project, is a chip of the Sally Hines block, and was once so stupid about the existence of actual material phenomena in front of me I lost my rag and started ranting about how you can't

make houses our of candy-floss. That's probably beside the point.

Anyway, here is Tim Hopkins, head of the Equality Network, parent org of the Scottish Trans Alliance, telling the Scottish government that the GRA changed the meaning of sex.

https://www.parliament.scot/S5_European/General%20Documents/CTEEA_Census_Bill_EqualityNetwork_CTEEA_S5_18_CB_27.pdf

All of which is to say, this 'nobody is trying to erase sex in law' and 'trans rights doesn't have any implications for sex in law' and 'you're all a bunch of paranoid witches' is a massive tottering pile of bullshit.

And Katy is projecting like a flippin lighthouse here.

That's all.

Bonus points to @ClaraenSc for noting yesterday afternoon that 'you are erasing sex in law' was about to be added to the infinitely expandable list of 'transphobic dogwhistles lahlahlah we can't hear you.'

Actually, no, the last thing. Until trans activists are prepared to actually be honest about the fuck their rights movement has been up to for the last 20 years, and to accept that they have been undermining women's protected legal characteristic while deliberately excluding us

from the political process and using threats, slurs and demonisation to enforce that exclusion, there can be no honest conversation, and no genuine effort to work out how the hell we get out of this nightmare.

I've been ploughing through these documents for months now, and when

you piece it all together and write it down, it's so outrageous and mental it actually reads like satire. Or like a 'trapped inside the Ministry of Truth' satirical nightmare.

Trans activists turn up and our public officials just start writing down gibberish and making

incoherent decisions with no due process that they cannot justify with anything that resembles human sense-making.

And AT NO POINT does it ever seem to occur to them that women even fucking exist, let alone whether they should maybe be consulted about people changing the

definitions of their existence in law.

I don't know how this all ends. But after so much gaslighting and craziness, it has to end by coming back to the truth. And that has to involve the trans rights movement and its advocates owning the truth of what has happened, what they

have been pushing for, and why women might object.

Because this is the greatest exercise in officially sanctioned contempt for women I've seen in my life.

And there are a lot of people who should be fucking ashamed it happened on their watch.
