We might have some grasp of our own political situation
The Glinner Update on Owen Jones’s hatred of women:
No Owen, what is gruesome is your obsessive monstering of feminist women who have an analysis of sex class oppression, and who understand the structure of gender and how it harms women far better than you.
What is gruesome is your complete and unrelenting contempt for women’s expertise and knowledge about their own oppression.
I am not an ‘anti-trans obsessive jumping on the Plymouth tragedy.’
I am a feminist thinker who wrote a PhD on male entitlement, and have published and been interviewed on MRA culture, what it tells us about the structure of misogyny, the relation between male entitlement and male violence, and the narcissistic rage that is visited on women when they do not comply with what men demand from them.
We know you only have your repeated ad nauseam one-note narrative about the evil ‘sadistic’ TERFs. We know in your narrative I can only be a swivel-eyed transphobic loon who hates gay people and is in bed with the far right, even though I am, in fact, an anticapitalist bisexual radical feminist.
We know that you are completely and utterly incapable of granting for one moment that the thousands of thousands of women objecting to the demand that their sex class be erased in law and language might have some grasp of their own political situation that eludes you.
Read it all, it’s all that good.
The incessant whining about lesbians not being interested in “transbians” should provide some clue as to how incels and transbians are very much of the same mindset towards women. Both sets think they are entitled to women who don’t want anything to do with them.
If I recall correctly, Owen Jones is gay and reacted with disgust and outrage when asked if he would perform cunnlingus on an FtM person (the question was a futile attempt to make him acknowledge that lesbians might have some sound basis for not welcoming “transbians” with open arms). He knows perfectly well what biological sex is when it suits him to. But that’s the way with so many trans-rights activists: boundaries for me but not for thee.
#2, that’s different. Owen Jones isn’t a lesbian and he isn’t a woman, so his opinions and feelings and tastes count. It’s only women who have to sit in the back seat.
Jane Clare Jones is very good indeed. I wonder if Owen J will respond in any responsible way.
