It seems that in the past few years, there has been a small backlash against the trans phenomenon in the UK...a lot of open and card-carrying "TERFs" seem to come from there, and many UK LGB movements are trying very hard to distance themselves from the "T".
What is going on over there? Here in the US, our culture and the media keeps pushing the pink pill or affirming troons/pooners with no end in sight.
We're pushing back against the dickheads who want to cut theirs off. It's not a surprise when you take into consideration the reporting of and backlash over Nicola Sturgeon trying to stick men in dresses in women's prisons, especially rapists or molestors.
It's like they think it'd be easier in a women's prisons. When in all reality you're more likely to be ostracised by both inmates and staff for being a kiddy fiddler or rapist. A lot of inmates are mums...
It is, there are many. The demographic of MN members is broad and I think they have millions of uk members- and there are many women on it who have significant pull in the real world. I only know the small group I talked to IRL, but they have some interesting connections. Repeat times a few hundred and that’s a lot of small actions. It’s just one push of many I’m sure but it helped change a few minds I know personally IRL.
Glad to see the MHRA start to take names. I wasn’t terribly pleased with their actions over coof jabs but otherwise my interactions with them over the years have always been pleasant, and they still have teeth
They forget women talk about everything. Be it MN, WhatsApp groups for school classes, wherever, we're all seeing and hearing the bullshit spewed by the idiots thinking they can force their way in. Recently the group I'm in had a discussion about what they were teaching the kids in school about relationships and stuff. We were reassured that it's just basic family, why some kids have two mums or dads, or fosters, or grandparents as parents, not whether their penis is valid.
Another of the groups there's tech and military families on there. I think they forget that the UK is quite small in comparison to the US, so there's more interconnected social circles.
I wouldn't get too excited about the UK law. They can throw their weight around federally, but a lot of metropolitan police forces are pozzed as fuck and it's very hard to enforce laws that the police might not want to enforce. Think of it like Texas or Oklahoma passing a gun law and all the county sheriffs coming together to tell the governor that the police won't be enforcing it.
The MHRA Criminal Division doesn't answer to the police. It gathers the necessary information for prosecution and goes through Crown Prosecution Service who then decide the steps to take. The warrants and arrests are enforced by police accompanied by MHRA representatives. It's enforced by a higher power than the bobby on the street, possibly Serious Crimes or Drug units, who deal with this sorta shit and have seen the effects.
