Jk Rowling never posted this... they faked it

I can't even tell if these people are stupid enough to fall for this or evil enough to pretend they are. Anyone who actually read her essay, or even tweets, knows her issue is specifically with the way women's rights are impacted by TQ+ bullshit. LGB people and the gay rights movement have never been a threat to women - in fact, they go hand in hand with feminism, due to the pushback against gender roles and the massive role of various lesbian feminists in the second wave especially and the feminist movement in general.

The amendments outlawed discrimination based on "gender, gender identity or expression" and changed "homosexual orientation" to "sexual orientation", meaning bisexual as well as lesbian and gay people will be protected from discrimination.

No, but it seems it does include straight people - heterosexuality is a sexual orientation, too.

Also, what the fuck is "gender expression"? Clothes someone wears? Makeup?

That "Grace" Lavery guy complained on Twitter a while ago how online classes mean that he can't talk to his (university) students openly about gender because the parents may overhear. So I'm guessing a number of other teachers also think twice knowing mum or dad may be in the room and ready to intervene if someone starts preaching this shit to their kids.

Why the stomping tho?? I really appreciate the sentiment and it is so cool and wholesome but I just know this will end up on some TERF wall of shame with 'stomp' circled in sharpie

Yeah, it's so wholesome to call for violence against women, shame we keep complaining about it so it makes them look bad.

Also, I've noticed that even in super-genderist subreddits, you can get away with posting GC opinions (like criticizing makeup or porn or choice feminism, even stuff like this). If someone calls me on my TERFism, I just act confused and well meaning but stick to my guns and get upvotes for it lmao.

It really shows that people have no idea what GC people/radfems are about, they just read we're super evil on tumblr.

I know! Conflating "non-binary" and "GNC" people? Definitely not the same thing. I like that there are at least fields where you can write in exactly what you think.

The results certainly won't be meaningful, but they'll be touted as such in circles high on gender kool-aid and low on science. So at the very least, I hope their gender bubble will deflate slightly if they receive a significant amount of GC responses.

In conjunction with the Questrom School of Business at Boston University, we are currently conducting a study to develop new best practices for asking assessment questions about gender and sexual identity. We need your help to support diversity and inclusion in research and HR practice.

This isn't my survey. It was shared on reddit, exclusively in pro-gender subreddits like r/aromantic and r/actuallesbians and the person who shared it seems dismayed at the idea of GC people filling it out. So, naturally... I shared it here. :)

I don't have an Ovarit account or I'd share it there also. Maybe someone else could? GC Twitter too.
