Not sure where to put this. Basically the BBC is giving airtime to the same transphobic arguments that were used about homosexuals in years gone by. Don't really want to link to it but it's an article titled 'We're being pressured into sex by some trans women' based on a survey of 80 women and... yeah. :fp:

Looks like the author deactivated her Twitter before the article went live. Not just a transphobic twat but a coward too.

The Tories have made a noticeable effort to endorse LGB Alliance and seem to be flirting with TERFs on social media. There must be big money somewhere behind the transphobic movement and the Tories are cashing in.

Wow :lol:

Didn't bother reading the article though did they? :lol:
The team liken their living material to concrete, which is a mixture of gravel and sand and cement combined with water. But its mechanical properties are more similar to mortar, a weaker material usually made with cement and sand and found between the bricks of buildings, says Srubar. It isn’t yet as strong as regular bricks.

Everything about the trans panic is a retread of the 70s-90s gay panic.

It's not always about money with the Tories. Sometimes they are just hate filled bigots without any financial incentives.

It's always toilets and children.

Toilets, children, and sex with (usually white) women.

We used to have to protect Our Innocent Straight Girls from predatory lesbians, now we need to protect Our Innocent Lesbians from predatory transwomen.

They are plutocrats above all else, I think. I don't expect they bother with much at all unless there's money in it for them.

Does this mean we're 50 away from Trans people being generally accepted?
