Bro journalist writes in the Herald Scotland about the awesomeness of standing up for men who claim to be women at the expense of women. There are women who would like a word, but he’s blocked them.

Rebecca Don Kennedy runs the Equality Network. She talks candidly to our Writer at Large about the attacks, abuse and hate she’s suffered campaigning for trans people

It was around 2018 that Kennedy, by then a policy officer for the Equality Network, began raising her voice in defence of trans people. It resulted in the first of countless “horrific social media pile-ons” where she was attacked en masse.

I wonder if she’s aware of the countless horrific social media pile-ons that gender critical women have been subjected to.

Kennedy, a feminist who has campaigned for women’s rights throughout her life, started to be called a “misogynist”.

“As a woman, who has been harmed by men and suffered prejudice, discrimination and misogyny, why would I fight for trans rights if I thought it was impacting women’s rights in a negative way? I wouldn’t. It’s frustrating people don’t recognise that.”

You know what’s frustrating? Seeing women who claim to be feminists defending men who pretend to be women and help themselves to everything that belongs to women. That’s what’s frustrating.

Kennedy sees the battle over trans rights as an “imported culture war”, which came along with “a rise in right-wing rhetoric, the rise of fascist tendencies, and a return to patriarchy. It manufactured fear and anxiety and made marginalised people scapegoats for the ills of the world”.

But what are “trans rights”?

If she means “rights” such as the “right” for men to be in women’s spaces, win awards intended for women, play in women’s sports, take jobs reserved for women, then those are not legitimately rights, because they destroy the rights of women. It’s quite obvious once you notice.

Talk of threats from trans women means society fails to concentrate on “the dangerous behaviour of men. We know there’s an outrageous, horrific rise in violence against women, sexual crimes and rape. Now there’s the rise of incel culture and the likes of Andrew Tate pushing ideas of men’s power and what they’re entitled to. It’s really sad that those pushing the anti-trans narrative don’t realise that’s exactly what they’re playing into”.

Is she really that stupid? Or just a liar? Trans women are men, so when we talk about the dangerous behavior of men that includes trans women, because they are men.

She adds: “The power that men have is continuing. The rise in violence against women is continuing. So, the idea that people who are against trans women or against trans rights are feminist is abhorrent to me. It drives me mad when people say that, as there doesn’t seem to be any concern for feminist issues or for protecting women.”

That would make sense if trans women were women but they aren’t, they are men. If you pay attention to the way they talk to and about women that might become clear to you. Check out India Willoughby or Sophie-Molly: they despise women.

SHE points to widely-held views such as “claims that ‘they’ are going to let men into women’s changing rooms now”. “They” being the government. Kennedy adds: “If that was the case, I would be against it, but that isn’t what’s happening. It’s categorically not what’s happening… Trans women have been using these spaces for decades without any problem.”

What? It’s categorically not happening, it’s been happening for decades.

As for “without any problem” – well fine then, we’ll just send a few hundred random men to live in her house with her, we’re sure that will be without any problem.

Kennedy described it as a “dog whistle – suggesting that trans women are dangerous. They’re not”.

And she knows that how? She knows that all trans women are without question non-dangerous? How could she know that? How could anyone?

The piece goes on and on and on in this vein; it’s astoundingly long for a newspaper op-ed. The bro journalist, Neil Mackay, has been blocking dissenters on twit-x.
