UK Adult Human Female film is shown in Edinburgh - Trannies seethe

Protesters have failed to stop a controversial film on women's rights and trans issues from being shown at the University of Edinburgh.

Two previous screenings of Adult Human Female were cancelled after pro-trans activists blocked the venue.

The film went ahead on Wednesday despite a protest involving more than 100 people.

They say the film is transphobic, a claim denied by the academics behind the screening.

The documentary was directed by academics and film-makers Deirdre O'Neill and Michael Wayne and has been available to view on Youtube since December 2022.

The film-makers describe it as "the UK's first feature-length documentary about the clash between women's rights and gender ideology/trans rights".

It defines sex as being determined by biology and says women's rights have been damaged by aspects of the trans movement.

An attempt to show the film last December at the University of Edinburgh was halted amid safety concerns after protesters formed a blockade around the venue. Police were called but no arrests were made.

A second attempt to show it was again cancelled in similar circumstances in April.

The events have been organised by University of Edinburgh Academics for Academic Freedom (EAFAF).

It is made up of university staff who are concerned by what they call a "growing climate of censoriousness and a general chill around discussing and debating difficult issues in this university".

The crowd at Wednesday's event chanted "trans rights are human rights" and shouted "shame" as people arrived for the screening.

Skye Marriner, president of the Edinburgh College Students' Association (ECSA), said the protesters were there to show people that "this kind of thing" was not welcome on the campus.

"It's not supported by the student body in Edinburgh. It actively harms trans people and it supports transphobic language and that's not OK," she said.

"If the trans community says they are not comfortable with this then that is something we need to respect."

Professor Jonathan Hearn, who teaches political sociology at the university and is a founding member EAFAF, said he was relieved the screening was finally going ahead and he was perfectly happy for people to demonstrate.

"It's become a matter of principle for the university to show that it can stand by its academic freedom and freedom of speech policies.

"It's just important symbolically to show that people can show films that are controversial, though I am not sure how controversial it is, and people can protest too. That's OK too," he said.

What even is the point of protesting when anyone can watch it on Youtube?

Then again these are the same faggots who are so delusional, they think cutting off their penises will make them women.

 

[Gas Station Boner Pills]

Lmao at the irony of a tranny saying "shame on" anyone. Your entire family is probably ashamed of you.

 

[Zyklon Ben's Poison Pen]

9:26, this woman almost hit the nail in the head, feminists spent so much time breaking the concept of women into so many categories for political clout that they are now surprised freaks and weirdos of both sexes use these categories against them.

Nothing gets people to flock to something more than a good protest about it. Normally I would forsake most things British as if they would curse my family line with generations of grief but I feel I should watch this film simply because a bunch of faggots told me not too.

It's really weird that women can't have meetings in person without people shouting about human rights abuses. I agree that feminism went really fucky, but I don't get why hen parties are now a hate crime.

Troons just want to censor this shit instead of coming with an actual counter argument to the claims this film makes.

The "everything is transphobic" discourse is quite old and rotten, but who cares anyways trannies will all kill themselves sooner or later.

What's the point of showing if it's free on youtube? To make it a public statement. Thus the protest is also a public statement.

I said this in the Israel vs Palestine thread, and I'll say it here:

Whoever loses, we win

satan hates women more than anything, and he instills that belief to his followers (god tells us this is the case in genesis, because the one who will vanquish satan with be a man, born of a mortal, human woman), be it some shitskin in canaan, an austrian art-school pillow biter, or a anutogynophile in seatle in 2023

thats why they do what they do. where satan thrives, misogyny is always around the corner.

They showed lesbian porn in the University of Edinburgh?

But she wont because that would be admitting feminism was a key factor leading to this point and that the slippery-slope was real.

Masked thugs threaten people not once, not twice but three times. No arrests.
Say a biological man in a dress is a man in a dress on the internet, Scottish police smashing in the front door (mild hyperbole)

Remember when it was the religious right pulling shit like this? Seems almost quaint now.

Man, that must've been like 40 years ago. How time flies...

lol the blue-rinse brigade got that film way more publicity than it'd have got if they'd just let 50 boomers walk into a room and snooze for an hour or so. I skimmed the film, it's tedious shit, just middle-age wifeys, crusties and a faggot whining.

AFAF are fundies, it'd have been funny if things had properly kicked off and they'd have got their cunts kicked in, but the troons are just the wrong kind of insane.

Man the line "trans women are women" really came around to bite them in their ass.

It took a decade or so but boy the heaps of schadenfreude don't stop being delivered in the feminist episodes of "how I came to hate my golem".

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

"If the trans community says they are not comfortable with this then that is something we need to respect."

Have they ever stopped doing something because others complained it's uncomfortable?

Everyone lost the right to association in the Civil rights act of 65. That includes women. It just took 50 years for it to start to apply, and since Europe is America's bitch for the time being the rules that apply in America, apply to eurofags too.
