Labour Students elect a boy National Women’s Officer, because girls are just girls, while boys who “identify as” girls are infinitely more significant and interesting and woke. That’s feminism.

    For crying out loud! The long, peroxide blond hair, the Bacofoil silver jacket; I’d swear he was a Jimmy Savile tribute act.

    I know it’s not nice to judge by looks alone, but for a Brit to deliberately choose that look is akin to a German growing a toothbrush moustache and dressing in a Nazi uniform. It’s not something that is easily done by accident.

    No this is a new one. National, it seems, where the other was local.

    Oh, c’mon, you cynics. You can tell he’s a girl. Look at all those heart and flower emojis.

    Look at that winsome pose that covers up hirs Adam’s apple.

    Oops, the images didn’t load for me and I assumed. Here’s the winsome pose I saw with this story earlier:

    How is it that, despite being a minority, trans women manage to fill leadership and management positions to such a disproportionately high percentage?

    Obviously, male women are the superior strain.

    Do women women feel compelled to promote male women into positions of power out of some internalised misogyny or somesuch? Or do they just do it for the wokeness? Or are they really just better at everything than women women?

    This. I suspect it’s this more than anything.

    @9 I think it’s partly that we want to be nice and supportive, and are manipulated into feeling sorry for them, and partly that we’re afraid of what they’ll do if they don’t get their way–we’ve seen examples.

    And a lesbian, too. Does that count for extra points?

    Oh hell yes it does. When it’s a trans lesbian that is; certainly not when it’s a cis one. Those are so last century.
