Brendan O’Neill is frankly gloating.

No sooner had the Supreme Court said what even the Neanderthals knew – that men are men and women are women – than these blokes were fuming. First out of the traps was thin-lipped loon India Willoughby. He branded the court’s decision ‘evil’. Yes, it is apparently wicked and immoral to say that if you have a todger you’re a fella. Willoughby spent the day furiously doubling down on his delusions of womanhood. ‘I have always been a woman’, he said. Tell that to the jizz you sired your kid with.

It’s a ‘grim day’, they cry. The ruling threatens trans people’s ‘safety’, they say. That’s big talk from a movement that expects female prisoners to live cheek by jowl with rapists and girls to share changing rooms with hulking blokes in ill-fitting bikinis. There are dark mutterings about ‘fascism’. Munroe Bergdorf shared a post saying: ‘There is no trans debate. There are trans people and there are fascists who wish to dominate and eliminate trans people.’ Dude, it’s not fascism to say women should be free to seek rape counselling without fearing there’ll be a weirdo in a boob tube listening in.

Listening in or just plain doing the counselling (see Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre for details).

Some of the angry fellas say they intend to carry on going into women-only areas. ‘You will never stop me accessing female spaces. It is my right to use them’, says one. Not anymore it isn’t, you prick. Trans activist Charlie Craggs says it’s terrible that he’ll now be expected to ‘use men’s spaces’ alongside ‘predatory men’. How can TERFs sleep at night, he says, knowing ‘they’re sending transwomen into bathrooms with predatory men’. What depthless gall. The men who demanded that women throw open their changing rooms, refuges, swimming pools and sports to any bloke who fancied waltzing in are now blubbing that they’ll have to share spaces with those very same blokes. Honestly, what these people lack in XX chromosomes they more than make up for with brass neck.

Sauce for the goose sauce for the gander eh wot?

Then, best of all, came ‘the allies’. Is there anything funnier than a fiftysomething public-school arse trying to stay relevant by saying ‘transwomen are women’? Barrister Jolyon Maugham – famous for killing foxes and losing cases – declared in his haughty headmaster’s drawl that the court’s ruling is ‘profoundly unfair’. LBC knob jockey James O’Brien asked TERFs how they feel being on the same side as Donald Trump on the trans issue. I don’t know, James, I think I’m happier being on the side of Trump than on the side of a movement that mutilates young lesbians, calls women cunts and puts rapists in women’s jails so they can rape more women.

I certainly don’t like the Team Donald Trump aspect of this, but when so much of the left is so determined to be so stupid, what choice do we have?
