This is a fascinatingly revealing conversation. https://t.co/LBRZGn...
Also, see Stephen's post below for the the TL:DR summary. We may have consider this... https://t.co/2DNheS...
Siri, show me misplaced male confidence, ignorance of the topic they are lecturing women, blithe unconcern for women's health & safety. Oh, and misogyny. Definitely misogyny https://t.co/NXM5gO...
It would be nice if @andevers took a leaf out of WWWC's book and considered the situation in the round, with intelligence and generosity. Suspect all are blocked, however! https://t.co/tAQQc9...
Excellent and compassionate article on the Second Shelf. https://t.co/MLscZm...

RT @Turnlung: @GeorgeWOxford @slightlyatsea @ALLIANCELGB @stonewalluk I’m a 6ft beefy woman. In college played one rugby club mixed match. In scrum, snapped both clavicles. Carried off by the guys. Can’t imagine this will end well for women in the ...
This is pertinent point in light of definition of "woman" in GRPBA which includes those "using a female name". What counts as a female name? Who decides? Is there a list? Historically, many names were used by both sexes- the mistress of 1st Earl of ...
As we have (again) upset rather a number of MRAs and apparently "created a dangerous and toxic situation" by asking them if women are entitled to have their safety considered in contact sport, we thought we'd share this again. It documents real ...
RT @Obsolesence: @ipa1869 @fairplaywomen @ForwomenScot @CarthaQPGirls @CarthaQPWomen @CarthaQPRFC @CarthaQPWomen @CarthaQPGirls Hi, can you help explain why you aren't supporting the @WorldRugby recommendations to exclude transwomen from women's ...
"Accidents happen". Women's valid concerns about safety are "irrational". This argument could also be used to justify the inclusion of adults in the children's game and the end of boxing weight categories. https://t.co/1qlpiv...
Apparently, Jolene thinks misgendering a rugby player matters more than women's broken bones. Let's examine the sex-based hierarchy at play here, shall we? https://t.co/vvJgSk...
Can we ask @HumzaYousaf if he agrees with this? There is no doubt these people will be reporting women if his hate crime bill becomes law. https://t.co/mjst9x...
An interesting point about Stonewall's sexist, reckless tweet is that replies are permitted for those they follow. So 1671 people could respond and have chosen not to. Including some who are usually very keen to give women a good kicking. ...
RT @Szy_Sefton: @HJoyceGender @stonewalluk It really would’ve been interesting had as many men supported and campaigned for equality of women’s sports - (not yet on the horizon) - as now campaign against women fighting for said equality in women’s ...
RT @MenAtWork_MC: @stonewalluk @IGRugby @WorldRugby Men - adult male humans (however we describe or perceive ourselves) - have ZERO right to insist on competing against women - adult female humans - in any sport, rugby included, where physiology is ...
RT @Obsolesence: 6 British rugby clubs have signed up to persuade @WorldRugby to allow male-bodied players into female rugby teams. Only 6, but still 6 teams that don't care that women would be hurt. https://t.co/Ge6NQ7...
Really important developments. https://t.co/6uu37p...
RT @campervanwoman: @ForwomenScot It is. I've added a wee bit to it too, about Engender's cancellation of a public meeting to discuss the GRA and the podcast, featuring Mridul Wadhwa, that they recorded instead. https://t.co/J8JLnR...
RT @campervanwoman: @sarahstuartxx @threadreaderapp This is great, Sarah. Many of us in Scotland are familiar with Mridul's work . I'd just like to add something else to your thread. During the first Scottish consultation on GRA reform, Engender ...
RT @sarahstuartxx: MW states that no one would abuse self-declaration, a line he wants us to think he has crossed himself, and likens the fear about this to ‘false allegations of rape’. Must be a laugh a minute to be around when your world has just ...
Many of us have encountered Mridul Wadhwa of Forth Valley RC before. This is a fascinating and revealing thread. https://t.co/pheJgN...
Honestly, they are all out this weekend. Now we have the "men will rape anyway" argument. https://t.co/XTzMPs...
