r/GC was mercilessly vilified all over Reddit for being a hate sub. I went there out of curiosity and found that it was warm, sensible and honest without being unkind. I subbed and could never understand the hatred it got. I saw lots of other women come in ready to argue against the supposed "hate speech" we were apparently engaging in. They stayed like I did.

People just see that you're Gender Critical or a Radical Feminist and think that automatically translates into 'raging Transphobe'. That is utterly ridiculous. We care about women and girls. We centre women and girls. That's all.

I certainly don't hate anyone, and I've never seen hatred being thrown at anyone else in GC spaces. I've seen disagreements, yes, but people can respect other's opinions without resorting to violence and threats. It's how we grow.
