Trans Rights & Recovery - Just Get Over It, B****


Trans Rights & Recovery-'Just Get Over It, B*tch'





A gallery of trans rights activists responding to a rape victim who wants female only spaces


Introduction by Anna


I have a really similar - frighteningly similar - story to Poppy (read about that here) It's how we got to know each other.
Like Poppy I'm not 'out', for a few reasons but knowing if I was these attacks would come to me, personally, with people knowing my face, my work, my children etc is unthinkable.


I'm anonymous on Twitter. I went in wanting to discuss trans rights politics and my story. I wish I had screenshots of all the young Labour, Lib Dem and Green party activists who've been insulting, but I don't.


Knowing I don't hate trans people, I probably blundered into this without thinking enough about the response. I hoped, stupidly, people would be able to listen and respect that I've just spoken about something incredibly painful.


I blurt this out and sometimes I instantly regret it. I hear notifications ping on my phone and feel sick.
I tried (to talk about this) before on my friend's Facebook when she'd written a post and I couldn't believe how I was spoken to, or how little support I got.


I remember all the other women I've known who panic when a man knocks at the door, or who change completely in their presence, who just don't have the resilience to talk about it, ever, at all. They need a whole day off if they touch on it in therapy.
I'm so angry for these women and for me.


I can distance myself, I have a bit of a shield around me but it hurt. I realised after a while I'd been dragged back into a pleading self defence I'd learnt in childhood.


That combination of mean girl stuff; a flurry of questions and statements which drove me insane and made me feel compelled to reply; idiots thinking they'd of dealt with it, and the gaslighting, bad faith responses; the twisting of my words and ridiculous, leading assumptions ("so, trans men are your problem then") it was excruciating, really. There was no difference between it and the gaslighting I was the target of in abusive relationships. There was barely a cigarette paper between the two.



Here it is - a reply to Elora Edwards following a related conversation:























Neovagina completely misunderstands what the tolerance paradox is about:










'Not all men / penis havers are like that!' with added woke

















The idealist Marxists continue...


















The 'I've been raped, therefore I totally understand how all rape victims feel, even when they were raped and beaten while having no home or support network and then left living in a refuge with a sex offender pretending to be trans' classic









Yeah, it sucks





Apparently I was unable to work this out:





87% of statistics are made up on the spot





Anna links to this story -
The transgender-only home giving people a 'safe space'











As you can see, some of these tweets were reported. However, not a single complaint was upheld.


Elora comes back fighting

I was unaware my tweet saying I'd automatically treat Flora as a woman but still need women only spaces was an 'attack'





In response, Elora is bombarded with fawning compliments





Heartfelt condolences to the victim, Elora...






Just recover, bitch, appears to be the trauma advice of the day. The right side of historyT™, always there for the vulnerable
