(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Banning ‘Transphobic Feminist Speakers’ Back in the U.K. , another  headline  declared, “ University of Bristol students vote to ban ‘ transphobic feminist speakers.’” Yes , University of Bristol students have voted to no platform trans exclusionary radical feminists (TERFs) from speaking on campus. TERF is an acronym for Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist, who claim that trans women are not women and argue that they have male privilege .  So, famous feminists like Germaine Greer and Linda Bellos would likely be banned from campus for being “trans exclusionary.” How dare they argue that a biological male who later “transitions” to female is not a real female, or, at the least, cannot relate to the lifelong experiences of a female? What a bigoted transphobic point of view! And it is other feminists who are pushing the ban. I can only shake my head in

The Safe Schools Coalition of Australia continues to promote a controversial children’s story book,The Gender Fairy, despite its author, Jo Hirst, saying it is not a “Safe Schools” resource. Ms Hirst told Channel 10 ’s The Project last night: “People like Lyle Shelton have used it against Safe Schools saying that it’s a Safe Schools resource, which it’s clearly not.” Australian Christian Lobby Managing Director Lyle Shelton said: “The comments made on Channel 10’s The Project last night which suggested that the Gender Fairy was ‘totally unrelated to Safe Schools’ is untrue. “The Safe Schools website promotes the controversial book and encourages students and parents to ensure the book is made available in their school library,” Mr Shelton said. “Safe Schools is advocating and promoting contested gender theory to children as young as four through its promotion of The Gender Fairy. “Ms Hirst collaborated with the now suspended Safe Schools co-founder Roz Ward in preparing t

(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Author and '60s radical feminist Germaine Greer is coming under fire after telling the BBC that transgender "women," such as Bruce Jenner , are not women and that they don't "look like, sound like, or behave like women.” Greer was responding to a petition that was being passed around by leftist activists demanding that Cardiff University   cancel a lecture   by the radical feminist scheduled for November 18 because of her history of making statements questioning transgenderism. Criticizing Glamour magazine ’s decision to name Jenner " Woman of the Year ," Greer told the BBC, "I think misogyny plays a really big part in all of this, that a man who goes to these lengths to become a woman will be a better woman than someone who is just born a woman.” Greer suggested that Jenner's transition was part of an effort to gain attent

It is also against millenia of heterosexual marriage that has worked successfully for the State.  Without argument, the inference is that people who support marriage between a man and a woman and age old concept are stupid. That is the argument: you stupid! Homosexuality is against biology, in that the bodies of men and women are complimentary. Garde 8 biology is very clear on this. For homosexual men the sex act is one of destruction using the anal passage which the bodies has been designed foe the removal of waste. AIDS and other sexual diseases in this case are transmitted by the tearing of the anal passage during sodomy. Second there is
