I lurked for a long while on the old GC board, but I'm being peaked more and more by the institutes bending over backwards to marginalise women for the sake of gender ideology. This support and enabling of misogyny has finally pushed me to make an account (not keen on the rest of the saidit platform so I'll probably go back to lurking), I cribbed a lot well made points from here and other gender critical feminists so I hope they get a united voice against this.

"Your definition of the term 'TERF' enshrines misogyny and propaganda that allows the rampant silencing women who are critical of medicalising young children and the erosion of sex based rights.

The use of 'TERF' to justify threats of violence towards lesbians, radical feminists, and anyone critical of the ideology is very real and documented. Hostility and abuse to these groups is taking place outside of online spaces and escalating to actual harm in real life.

Your own definition for "woman" is "adult human female", so what makes a proponent of this truth a 'TERF'? Acknowledging the existence of female biology is now considered transphobic, with documentation increasingly erasing the word woman, and scientific reality, to validate a minority of the population.

The consequences of this acquiescence is already being felt by women in all areas of their day to day lives, from their health care to the very laws that are set up to protect them. https://forwomen.scot/did-you-know/

"This is NOT a case of two sides as bad as each other. And it’s notable that the hate is not aimed at genuinely transphobic, aggressive men. It’s aimed at women."

I included the link to the Scottish Forwomen info page as it has an overview of the issues we've been facing in the UK, I don't know if there was a better resource I could've linked to help bolster the message? I doubt it'll change the opinions of those that have been indoctrinated by trans activists, but you never know whose eyes your message might reach!
