There is no way that you can say to a man who identifies as a woman, insists he is a woman, that, fine, he can do what he likes, but he can’t actually come into women-only spaces – and that you reserve the right to say that the reason is because he’s a man – that doesn’t offend him…
What has happened is that a lot of women have seen their willingness to be polite absolutely taken advantage of… What it’s come down to is that people who don’t identify as their sex have taken other people’s politeness as license to override other people’s desires, needs, rights, and boundaries…

“have taken other people’s politeness as license to override other people’s desires, needs, rights, and boundaries…”
I’d change the word “override” to “violate”. This article was still being too polite.
Just watched a video of a black guy going around Paris taking people’s drinks/ice cream right out of people’s hands. Not violent, didn’t ask, just went up and took it. He was a tik toker making a video, but they didn’t know that.
The women were especially ‘polite’ almost to the point of apologising for not giving it to him easier.
The only one that said no and pushed the guy away was another black guy.
Wasn’t shocked when I saw that. There are people in my town in the UK that are proud they are taking in illegal immigrants. Think they are doing a good thing. Suppose they’ll think that up to the day they are killed for doing it.
We won’t just not fight to protect our culture, we’ll apologise for not rolling over sooner, we’ll even fight those who would protect our culture. Post Modernism indeed.
This started with postmodernism, a philosophy that holds that all “truth” is situated, subjective, and socially constructed. It was all the rage during the 1980s and 90s, but then seemed to peter out, presumably due to its vacuousness and patent absurdity.
But it was only going dormant for a while, and it laid the ground work for demanding that we now acknowledge that 2 + 2 = 5 in the interests of social justice.
My last term in law school I took an elective called History of Jurisprudence. Sounded like the sort of thing I used to like. Unfortunately the woke idiot prof hijacked it and turned it into a survey of postmodernists.
All truth is a social construct, except for postmodernism! It is an utterly contradictory theory, and they just can’t see it.
There seems to be two classes of trannies: (1) the ones who, for some reason, are uncomfortable in their own skin (for whom I can have a limited amount of sympathy) and (2) the ones who are just pervy crossdressers, like the hairy bearded lesbian brigades, for whom I have none. Neither belong in women’s changerooms. Type 1 generally will not want to go in anyway. Type 2 are beating down the door.
Once people learn that tranny schiff is China driven to disrupt normal social behaviour, just like antifa and BLM, then we can start to fix this schiff. Too many, like Kate, just don’t get it.
Keep our host’s name out of it, loser. She actually provides you with a platform, which is more than many would do.
Feminists really got their asses handed to them on this, yeah. As the memes say: f around and find out.
Feminists are not a homogeneous gestalt. Some embraced transactivism, and some recognized the danger early on. Certainly more of the former than latter, and that came to be seen as the “official position”, but there were many dissenters.
Feminism is proto-transgenderism.
A while back, I watched a female athlete complaining of competing against a man. Yet the female continued to refer to the man as she and her. I said to my wife, “If it’s she and her, what’s the problem?” They have to call these people what they are and simply refuse to compete with them.
