the Black women’s beauty forum Lipstick Alley, and the British parenting forum Mumsnet.

Describing Lipstick Alley and Mumsnet so inaccurately shows the writer of this piece has never spent any time on either forum. The descriptors seem deliberately chosen to belittle and pigeonhole the users of both sites.

The condescending attitude towards Mumsnet is standard and predictable - though MN is a vitally important forum where all sorts of topics, including politics, are hotly debated and politicians and government ministers do AMAs, foes of the site always try to make it seem that it's a place for silly-headed "birthing and breeding people" to discuss topics like prams and childcare, which are seen as frivolous and unimportant in the eyes of young women like the author of this piece. It also reflects the "what would parents know?" attitude the trans cult promotes, coz they think kids in any family are the wisest ones, and therefore kids should be left to make drastic life decisions without any parental input or oversight.

But the slur on Lipstick Alley I find really surprising. IMO, it's intentionally racist and misogynistic to suggest that the women of LSA are focused on nothing but makeup, hair and fashion. Guess that's what the trans cult considers intersectionality in action.

BTW, the women at LSA are having none of it:

I found this LSA comment interesting:

I can’t believe that silly child is on staff at the Atlantic smh. Her Twitter bio says she’s writing a book about One Direction fans. Of course she is.

And this one sums it up:

Women who are TRAs are the worst, openly discriminating against their own sex class so they can be seen as an 'inclusive instersectional' feminist. That whole article is a pile of projecting garbage, everything she's claiming 'terfs' are doing is the very thing TRAs have been doing.
