Trump won’t do anything to halt the material consequences of gender ideology. I can’t believe there are some so stupid to think he will suddenly protect women and girls from violent men.

The test has only just begun. It may not be 1933, but it’s not 2016 either. Now all the power is with one man, not just one party, since the GOP is Trump's personal United Russia now. Trump has no agenda other than personal wealth & power, but his handlers have bigger plans. 5/7

If you’re not following the Pelicot trial - I recommend checking it out. It’s a stunning example of why the “not all men” argument rings hollow in our ears. Why we’re angry & fighting back. Why we must keep fighting in the face of increasing threats to our safety & autonomy /end

This is all going to get a lot less funny to some of you guys, and the liberal tears are going to be a lot less satisfying to slurp, when completely incompetent and in some cases profoundly immoral people are running multibillion dollar government agencies.

AOC may have lost her pronouns but straight female philosophy profs with she/they pronouns will be the last vets out of the jungle

While Fawcett Society has been cosying up to the political elite for photo ops, For Women Scotland have been in court fighting for actual women.

“Middle class women of a certain age”. His age as it happens. Women confident enough to speak when they must. Women who wouldn’t weesht, you might say. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Imagine you are counselling a disturbed child who hints that they have been sexually abused. But, rather than operating in a trauma informed manner, you go against ALL safeguarding training, ignore that disclosure, and instead push your own pet theory about why they are feeling

I spent a week at the Pelicot case, one of the most disturbing things I've ever reported on, & examine the many issues arising: French rape law, pornography, complicity & the defiant courage of Gisele The Times and The Sunday Times has taken my long read outside the paywall. thetimes.com/world/europe/a…

Assad needs a ride, not ammunition.

Only in a year where #GiselePélicot holds 50 men who raped her to account does a rapist President get named Person of the Year (for the second time). The message is clear: misogyny rewards power, while survivors like Gisele fight to ensure #ShameMustChangeSides.
