They don't have answers, because there is no logical consistency within trangender ideology. It also crashes constantly into reality. This means they have to inhabit some kind of liminal intellectual space where language is stripped of basic meaning and they can hide in the cracks. Or something. I sense I'm beginning to sound as insane as they are, but I'm trying to define to myself what they're up to.

The time I stood up as a teenager in my wider family of origin one Xmas and asked why all the females, who also had full-time jobs, were doing all the cooking and housework while all the males sat around and drank beer. It did not make me popular but it did make me a feminist. And the next year my mother followed my example and opted out and did her own thing at Christmas.

How will female handmaidens in Womens Studies feel if TiMs filled all the positions in that dept? by SanityIsGC in GenderCritical

I think one of the most pernicious consequences of trans activism for women is one you don't often see debated, and that's how it's going to skew women's chances of promotion. TiMs, like most men, are never going to take a career break to have children, they won't be juggling career with motherhood and domestic commitments. The gender paygap - and glass ceiling - largely exist because women have to take time out to have a family. That means TiMs will have a huge advantage in terms of rising up their organisations, not to mention the boost from companies wanting to prove they're woke by promoting them.

Cue a situation where women in the top jobs aren't actually women at all, but no one cares cos TWAW. It's the career equivalent of women's sports - we need protection from the natural advantages men have at work.

Trans activism is the biggest Trojan horse for feminism and women's rights I've ever witnessed. I'm so glad it has finally woken you up to what is going on. Once you're red-pilled and on the other side of the matrix, it's ugly and uncomfortable but at least you're not living in a mesh of misogynistic lies any more. You finally get to stop gaslighting yourself.

I was a second wave feminist blithely celebrating the sudden resurgence of feminism amongst young women, having no idea that it was not any kind of feminism I'd recognise. I was also oblivious to the whole trans debate until I watched a documentary on Munroe Bergdorf where she goes to a feminist meeting to show what horrible bigots they are and realising the woman in the background was making more sense than Munroe. Then finding out trans women are competing in women's sport. But it was the proposals for self ID in the UK that first peaked me - the idea that any bloke could decide he was a woman and enter women's spaces just struck me as completely insane. Perhaps because I'd had a lifetime of men and their shitty behaviour so I know they absolutely would take advantage of that. Then I happened to watch an interview with Posie Parker, and while I wasn't on board with her hard line on pronouns, she introduced me to AGP, and then a whole lot of other things fell into place. I'd watched a British documentary on people who transition, and the way the middle aged tims treated their wives, their obvious selfishness and narcissism had really struck me, but now I had a name for it. From then on it was a fast downhill run into full terfdom, with JKR giving me a hefty shove along the way.

I've had encounters with US peeps on Twitter who seem completely unable to understand that most British GC peeps have no connection to the religious right as we don't really have a powerful religious right lobby in the UK. They insist that we are part of that lobby anyway. It's utterly bizarre, as if they can't imagine the whole world isn't a reflection of US society.

I wish more people knew this. I was raised by narcissists, so naturally drew them into my life for years into adulthood (which isn't difficult, it's getting increasingly hard to avoid them.) Then various things led to an epiphany where I realised that many of my friends were deeply toxic and self-centred, and eventually did things so provoking I dumped most of them. My life has been immeasurably better since.

"I was absolutely convinced that the root of my problems could be traced to my sex."

Unfortunately, that's true for pretty much all women, and it's a hard thing to come to terms with. Transgenderism seems to offer girls an easy way out of that - if you can't beat them, join them. From what I've read, you were a textbook example of the kind of girl who is vulnerable to this ideology, so I applaud you for having the foresight and courage to see through it. I wish you every happiness.

Yeah, I really do feel some dudes have been very eager to jump on this woman-bashing bandwagon, or at least markedly reluctant to oppose it. As I say to any I encounter, you haven't got skin in the game, mate.

Yes, I was wondering the other day what her position is on all this. Hard to believe she doesn't have one. I would be over the moon if she spoke up for women - perhaps someone should ask her?

I think I've always known it, but when I was younger, I naively believed that feminism would sort it all out in a decade or two. Oh boy, was I wrong about that. The level of misogyny I've seen over the last year or so is beyond anything I ever imagined.

Posie Parker/Kellie Jay Keen-Minshull arrested at Leeds meetup after police harrase feminists. by jet199 in GenderCritical

Massive own goal by the Leeds police. Way to get a huge amount of publicity for these women and their message. Idiots.

I've been just permanently banned from r/feminism for saying that in humans sex is a binary, and that intersex people aren still either male or female. I'm a biologist. by BioFem in GenderCritical

That is a good name for it. The parallels with religion are legion.

It's so bizarre, isn't it? Like you, I sleep-walked into this. I'd seen the post-feminism ladette thing give way to a new rise in feminism, and was quietly celebrating its revival, then self ID came along and I had my first Houston-we-have-a-problem moment, followed by a couple of years of trying to catch up with what the hell is going on and how we got to this point.

There'll be more of you than you think, keeping quiet, asking themselves the same questions. I admire you younger GC folk so much. I was innoculated when young with second wave feminism, so I knew this for misogynist BS the moment I came into contact with it. You haven't had that luxury, but you've still seen through it. Well done.

There's absolutely zero internal logical consistency. I see it time and time again. It's the hallmark of a belief system that's completely out of step with reality.

Yes, I was getting frustrated with that mixing up sex and gender thing too when I watched her. I kept thinking it must be me because she's the sex researcher.

Yes, beyond doubt. Narcissism is central to AGP.

The trans-ing of children will do it, I think. That is so clearly fucked up and borderline abusive. I think it's already close to a huge medical scandal, and I'm hoping when that unravels, so will trans activism. It will be seen as responsible for brainwashing and mutilating thousands of young people. Plus, give it a few years, and all this gender BS will no longer be trendy and the new generation will reject it.

TRA + Narcissistic Personality Disorder by veruscka8 in GenderCritical

I remember watching that C4 documentary The Making of Me and being really struck by the narcissism of the middle-aged men who were transitioning. One particularly memorable scene was a dinner party where the husband was now 'out' as a woman, and you could see how angry and appalled the other guests were to his obliviousness to his wife's distress.

It's a cult with terrible repercussions for 'heretics'. There is absolutely zero incentive for most of its members to see things differently. The only ones that will escape are those who aren't susceptible to a cult mentality in the first place, or those for whom the gaslighting and cognitive dissonance becomes so obvious and painful they wake up.
