- Nevermind that- because it's true she said awful hurtful harmful things about trans women. The latest example: https://4amfeminism.wordpress.com/2015/07/24/on-ophelia-benson-and-the-future-of-life-on-earth/ …
- @VitaBrevi I think there might be two ways of interpreting that answer.
- I disagree. She literally said trans women are not unequivocally women because otherwise why is the word trans used. https://twitter.com/latsot/status/624592520723304450 …
- @VitaBrevi Another way of interpreting that response is that she didn't want to answer a complex question yes/no.
- @latsot @VitaBrevi ANOTHER way of interpreting it is the way her "gender critical feminist" friends are. Since she Likes those comments.
- @latsot @VitaBrevi And they seem to be interpreting it as "if you have to attach a label like 'trans', you're not really woman".
- @lousycanuck I don't think that's what she said at all. @VitaBrevi
- @latsot @VitaBrevi I just said, her "gender critical" friends are apparently interpreting it that way, and she's liking their comments.
- .@lousycanuck You're monitoring what COMMENTS I like? Are you fucking serious?
- .@OpheliaBenson If by "monitoring" you mean "noticing", yes. No less than you've done to Dawkins.
- .@lousycanuck And "noticing" is bullshit; you weren't looking by accident. Do you have any idea how fucking creepy that is?
- @OpheliaBenson @lousycanuck You're deciding whether or not trans women are women in public. Yes, we're reading and watching in real time.
- @Felix3333 Don't be ridiculous; as if I have the power to decide that. Also, no I'm not.
- @OpheliaBenson You're deciding how to answer that question for yourself, and asked that facebook page for advice on how "argue back".
- @Felix3333 No. She asked for articles to help form an more informed opinion. @OpheliaBenson
- @Felix3333 @BarbB2013 Why are you screengrabbing me?
- @OpheliaBenson because I don't like quoting people without showing the source, and I didn't know how to link to that convo.
