The lynching threats are gonna bite her in the ass. However there's been plenty of punch/shoot/burn/rape/kick/choke/stab a TERF messages over the years, so, you know...sorry to hear it, but not sorry enough to lose sleep. Weird that now, only now, do we need to have a conversation about violence.

Rowling's essay was a lot gentler with none of the bile, and people talked about wanting to bomb her and shove their dicks down her throat.

My impression of the essay was someone pushed to the edge. The timing of her being interviewed by the BBC and her writing this a few days later is probably no accident. I don't doubt for a minute that she got some heinous shit sent her way after that, maybe a lot more up close and personal than some tweet or blog post. And this was the woman who apparently inspired the Cotton Ceiling after backing out of that porn shoot. This is nearly ten years of bile, sent back in a white hot laser. She did not hold back.

I guess it didn't bother me because I'm so desensitized to it now - I mean, I see stuff like this all the time:

“If TERFs think trans* is an endemic threat to feminism, let us be the threat to feminism…

Picture this: I hold a knife to your throat and spit my transness into your ear. Does that turn you on? Are you scared? I sure fucking hope so.”

My feeling is she regards herself as waaaaaay past being pushed past the edge, but yeah probably not accidental timing.

OMFG I'm late to the party because for some reason I couldn't access the website. I was finally able to access archives via the Farms.

She definitely tells it like it is. For those unable to access the site (I couldn't), here are the archives (all 3 parts):

Lily Cade, the author, is the lesbian porn star who wouldn't have sex with trans women, right?

I can't seem to reach the site, but here's an archive: https://archive.ph/6xA3f

Epic rant.

Yes, of course, we can, and write so many papers, and make so many jobs for so many “thinkers” who need not toil by their hands nor look upon the ruin their intellectual masturbation has wrought.

That is a perfect description of the state of academia, from queer theory to crt.

Not a good person . . . but she can apparently think.

Wasn't she accused of sexual misconduct?

She calls herself a rapist in this rant, in case you missed that part.

It does not take anything away from her point the men of America are pussified and won't stand up to the T

Yes, I'm not sure she's the best person to be quoting or claiming for our team but she is quite intelligent.

In context of misconduct in front of the camera while doing porn work: yes.

But it's important to note how common this is in porn, she's one of the few people who said she chooses to believe women and accepts that her intent didn't matter - all that matters is how the women feel about the experiences they had.

This is how everyone else responds:

The allegations recently resurfaced on Twitter and, when asked by the trade publication XBIZ about the claims, Stagliano pointed to a YouTube interview in which he said, “We’re all assuming that you’re an adult and you can just say ‘no’ when you don’t want to do something instead of say, ‘Well, I didn’t really want to do it. Oh, the pressure [pretend crying]. Oh, help me.’ Well, say ‘help me!’” He continued, “Women want the right to be equal to men, and there comes a little responsibility with that. Which is: stand up for yourself.” Stagliano added, “Don’t expect us to treat you like a full human being if you don’t act like a full human being.”
