"girlguides had no choice but to exclude trans people!!! there's no way they could have showed solidarity!! "

meanwhile: *actual girlguides volunteers are quitting en mass following the announcement*

listen

I don't have any illusions about the United States military, what it does, or how many times this has happened before

but the fact that they sat there for 41 minutes, watched two scared, human beings desperately struggling to stay alive, and then murdered them has fucked me up so deeply

this feels like another iteration of the "what if I give a homeless man money and he buys booze" thing. So then he bought booze, so what, you are not his personal life coach. You did your bit now go live your life.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

I'm so serious, so many of our "problems" we're TOLD to focus on disappear the moment we do the cheap, efficient, thing with better outcomes - cheating to get access to medical care? Fuck you, medical care for everyone then. Cheating to get access to food and housing? HOUSING FOR EVERYONE.

anyway, everything sucks, so many consider reading my hopeful trans lesbian cheerleader book series (and, in doing so, supporting a trans woman and her wife who are stuck in England)

There's not much left of the rule of law if organisations can be financially bullied into not asserting their legal rights. goodlaw.social/sb50
Excluding trans people won’t stop you getting sued | Good Law Project
Girl Guiding and the Women’s Institute have announced that they will now exclude trans women and girls after legal threats – but organisations can and should remain inclusive.

Had fun muting and blocking a bunch of people who’s only response to the transmisogynistic WI is “trans men should join up en masse, that’ll show them”

No it won’t, you clown. You put your body on the line, stop offering up mine for a humiliation ritual that will do nothing for trans women

you fight transmisogyny by *fighting transmisogyny*, not by playing games with cis people’s colouring-book comprehension of sex and gender

"Respectful and understanding" - perhaps they were. I'm not. I don't think any of us should be. I think orgs that do this need to pay a heavy price for doing it. They're afraid of the power transphobes have: and so we must endeavour to build power of our own and to wield it uncompromisingly.
This part is *infuriating*. This cis woman heard an 80 year old trans woman say, 'This is the only place I've been respected as a woman IN MY LIFE.'

And did not immediately think, 'I will fight every inch like a dying badger to keep her in my organization.'

Absolutely pathetic.

Any organisation joining the persecution of transgender people in the UK does not get a free pass.

This is going downhill fast, and it will end in a dark place.

When this is all over, there must be no "we didn't know", or "we were only followng orders".

This has to stick to them forever.

The most black pilling thing is that most of the worst people in history and their enablers never see consequences for their actions. Most of them live blissfully until old age in wealth in privilege.

Every trans person who is on a knife edge. On one side is employment for another day. On the other is whether a random transphobe posts "Ick, gross, trans person" with your picture and employer name, and it goes viral. You will get fired, from pretty much any company, if that happens to you.
When writing this piece, I kept thinking back to this Instagram post I saw from a trans woman the other day. This is what I'm talking about. Watch this:

today's been amazing for checking bios of people dropping the most hateful, dog shit posts I've ever seen & finding descriptions like "deep thinker" or "compassionate realist" or "enlightened soul"

feel like there should be some kind of licensing board to enforcing standards here?

Women's Institute have also folded.

They're a private organisation who can decide exactly who their members are and aren't. The SC only affects provisions of the Equality Act, none of which apply to this.

They've chosen to protect themselves from legal challenges at the expense of trans people.

"It's too costly to stand up for you, but we pinky promise we have solidarity with you" is bullshit.

"We have no choice but to discriminate against you" is bullshit.

They could use their platform to spotlight Gender-Conservative hatred, or demonstrate actual commitment to their stated principles.
i hope every single person who still buys harry potter merch or engages with that franchise is happy that they're literally making girl guides cry

girl guides uk have been forced very much against their will to exclude trans girls. full statement is here: www.girlguiding.org.uk/information-...

The truth is that there are many good people in good institutions regretfully making the choice to sacrifice trans people because they fear for their own survival and their institution's survival...

...and it is incumbent on us to show them that their choice is not without consequence.
