No but I think that's one of those situations where the loser has to just ride off into the sunset forever. No coming back from that.

We need to stop making this excuse for the generation that fought for rights for these minorities. Many of them were better. Fuck those that remain bigots.

Its easier to find a weaker, more oppressed scapegoat to blame than to face up to the fact that your friends voted for this for decades and finally got it.

I know several ladies older than Bette Midler at work who are all affirming. One of them is legit one of the single most affirming people in my workplace! Never excuse bigotry.

You have to be a complete narcissist to be 80 years old and think your opinion in modern social issues matters. Doesn't Bette remember what whiny 80 years old were like in her youth? They were supporting Jim Crow and thought women shouldn't be allowed to work.

I dont think she means it like that. Shes referring more to the roe vs wade thing and used "terf" rhetoric without realizing it. Cant expect 80 year old people to be on top of every contemporary social issue...unless theyre politicians.

I mean...she seems like the type that would get behind trans rights if explained properly.

Guys I'm probably going to get banned or blocked by half the board right now but

Women are pissed right now. They feel attacked. They are going to be in weird defense mode in an attempt to regain control of their identities. Like let women be mad. I'm not saying it's right but everybody has a reason to think the way they do

When you were mad have you said shit you didn't really think through? I don't agree with their statements but as somebody who is chronically angry all the time defending my own self worth (not as a woman though) I get where these angry posts are coming from right now

I'm a woman too. And I'm not going to simply let them erase ME because their political project was and is an abject failure that has been defeated by fascists and they would rather scapegoat trans people at a time when the fascists are actively working to erase us.
Many of whom they consider personal friends, because, to them, politics was some rarefied arena of ideas and not something that ever impacted them much. That's even still true! They would rather aid the fascists than face up to the fact that they fucked up.

It's a sticky situation because objectively Trans are the most discriminated group right now but Women feel victimized right now (for good reason) and people don't live in reality when they are angry...maybe this is what the puppet masters wanted...divide and conquer the masses

the terms she's scarequoting are ones that are inclusive of trans men and relevant gnc people. instead of being angry at the people who just put the boot on her neck, she's ranting at the people who have been down here all along.

It's dangerous finger pointing mentality from a scared angry woman. I'm not mad at her because I get where she's coming from but it reads the wrong way

Lol wow you said it not me. Being empathetic towards women right now is not calling them stupid or emotional. And they have a good reason to be emotional right now. What an insane twisted take you have there...go back to your bad faith sjw Twitter echo chamber and try to cancel Lindsey Ellis again

You honestly sicken me.

It's anti-trans by far because she's scare quoting terms used to be inclusive of trans men when reproductive rights are discussed

Is she?

She seems to be saying "Call us women" which I don't think is an anti-trans sentiment.

I'd be pissed too if I was a girl and people refered to me as "Menstruator"

Imagine if we started calling men "Sperm Hoses"

It's kind of dehumanizing. Which is super important when the government of the nation is literally saying you deserve less rights than men, sorry sperm hoses and even guns.

I've never heard a transgender in my life be mad at calling mensturators "women"

Hell even turning this into a transgender thing feels like a diversion to avoid attacking Roe vs Wade and conservatives taking over

Since Unfair seems to be arguing my "side", I was definitely wrong and this is kind of sort of anti-trans.

Also the trans-man reading makes sense, I was thinking TERF in terms of anti-trans women.
