Little girl in Algeria decides she wants to play soccer, gets bullied by the boys because she's a girl.
She takes up boxing, to defend herself from bullies, makes it to the fucking Olympics, only for a demented British children's author to publicly shame her for not being enough of a girl

WHY DON'T GIRLS DO MORE SPORTS BIG MYSTERY WE SHOULD INVESTIGATE THAT

@detachedspork The thing about TERFs is that there is nothing really feminist about them.

They’re pandering to patriarchal models of what a woman should look like and how she should behave.

They’re full of ingrained misogyny but somehow believe themselves to be feminists.

@catzilla It has always been about policing femininity ALWAYS

@catzilla @detachedspork hence, feminism-appropriating radical transphobe makes for a much better acronym.

Solution: Algerian boxer should box British bully

At a school I just left, every large space was taken up by boys playing hand ball or basketball. No girls played. Girls sat on the edges and kept out of the way of the "screaming banshees" (as described by the IT guys located near the year 7 area). Literally screaming at each other and swearing, bullying and violating each other. The school administration was not at all concerned.

Ain't it creepy that a guy (Robert) who sometimes pretends to be a woman (Joanne) (or the other way round, it's so confusing) is even listened to? I mean, pretending to be woman in order to seem to have some legitimacy policing who is a woman or not? I find that creepy.

I mean, I am quite sure he doesn't claim to trans. According to his theory, the possession of physical genitals of one type or the other is pretty defining and I doubt he is doing sex changes for- and backwards again all the time.

@detachedspork
That kind of bullying also occurs in 'The West' too. Not just a thing in those 'foreign countries people might associate with Islam'. It's far more universal than that. It occurs in secular communities as well as religious ones too.

@AutisticMumTo3 Can you please point to where the hell I said that bullying only happens in other places? WTF

@detachedspork
I was adding that not because you'd said that but because I could see some people responding with that because of what people think of how women in majority Muslim countries (& is the case in at least some).

@AutisticMumTo3 @detachedspork I think most of us did. Or maybe you didn’t understand what you were writing? πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

@detachedspork would that the demented author could see this… does she know?

@detachedspork
That fucking demented British (Scottish) author should be reminded that she is *Trans!
Born Human transitioned to Fascist!!!!

@Bam @detachedspork Mankind would be a lot better off if each human breath needed active and coherent consideration.

detached spork

@chris @Bam ah yes because all Zionists are Jewish and vice versa. Gotcha. But well done taking a commentary on misogyny and brushing that out of the way for your own feels about something else #replyguy

@detachedspork @chris

Right. Because I 1) made the statement on the Algerian Committees behalf and 2) wrote the article. πŸ™„

@detachedspork With respect, Rowling didn't just publicly shame Khelif for not being enough of a girl. She denied that Khelif was female at all.

@bodhipaksa

Accusing women of being men is exactly what Rowling and her ilk do every time a woman fails to meet their narrow, misogynistic definition of womanhood. It's got nothing to do with their victims' actual gender, nor their anatomy, chromosomes, or anything else. They just aren't girly enough.

@detachedspork Well we cannot have women do anything but shooting babies from between their legs, can we?? /s

@detachedspork What is up with the XY chromosome thing? Is this factual? To play devils advocate if she is XY and producing testosterone at levels higher than other woman then she does have an advantage. Still a woman of course… but one with an advantage.
